  1. ??????? When you're 4 games above the last place team (read Second to last) and playing out the string too, let me ask you how you've been doing playing at the level of other teams???? by playing very well against the Cards and Mets but sucking against the Pirates. That's what I mean
  2. leave it to the Cobs to always play to the level of competition
  3. Izturis and Murton are backwards, but otherwise that's about the best Dusty can do.
  4. Cubs: /price is right loser music
  5. If the Stones were in a different bracket, they may not have made it to the Sweet 16
  6. and after PSU beats them it won't matter anyways
  7. Friday morning around 8ish EDT Let me add that it is 12:09 Eastern right nw, and Queen is up 38-35. by Friday I clearly meant Saturday.
  8. I predict a #1 seed going down right here
  9. I sure hope Gorzellany isn't a rookie lefty who tops out at 85mph...
  10. Zambrano: 7 1/3 IP, 4 H, 2 BB, 11 K, 147 pitches 3 for 4, HR, 3 RBI, SB
  11. Friday morning around 8ish EDT
  12. No it isn't. He's only expected to miss a start. If the D-Backs said one start, I believe it. If the Cubs said one start, then his career is over
  13. "This just in, the Sky is blue!"
  14. (1) The Rolling Stones: - ROUND 1 - Defeated (16) The Flaiming Lips 68-13 - ROUND 2 - Defeated (8 ) Aerosmith 59-19 - SWEET 16 - Defeated (5) The Kinks 50-19 (2) The Who - ROUND 1 - Defeated (15) Dream Theater 67-8 - ROUND 2 - Defeated (10) Genesis 57-10 - SWEET 16 - Defeated (3) Nirvana 46-35
  15. why the hate? I can understand people HATING Colplay or HATING Green Day, only because those groups are on the radio like every 5 minutes all day. But it's hardly like Pink Floyd is being forced down anyone's throats. Sure, classic rock radio plays the same 3 Floyd songs all the time, but the same can be said for just about any classic rock band
  16. I knew this would be close, but I didn't think Queen would be winning. I really like both bands, but Queen has more songs in their catalog that I simply don't like. I own nearly 30 Pink Floyd CD's and there is very, very little I don't at least like. Queen is either "I love it" or "I hate it" with me.
  17. a 3rd place finish would mean an extension for Baker and the front office thinking they are on the right track with the team, which they're not.
  18. everyone knows who i voted for
  19. That is what Len and Bob said last night that both games would be on WGN. We shall see, but I certainly hope so. (The only reason I'm not sure is that once or twice the schedule has changed and they didn't show both games-but I doubt that will happen this time.) is this a day/night double header, or should the second game start around 3:30-4pm central?
  20. are both games on WGN? I think it would be a worthwhile day of baseball to see both Marmol and Mateo pitch
  21. you like them better personally or you think Metallica are actually better songwriters-musicmakers? Perhaps when some people want to crank up the radio, they aren't interested in "Love Me Do," "Yesterday" or "Penny Lane." I love when people argue that the Beatles aren't "rock" enough and then pick songs like Yesterday to attack. "Kerry Wood wasn't a fireballer. His curve barely hit 70 mph." Yes, but even if you take the Beatles' hardest song (say, Helter Skelter) it sounds like James Taylor compared to Battery No doubt Metallica is the heavier rock band. If his argument had been, "some people like to crank up the radio, and Metallica is better for that b/c they rock harder than the Beatles" - no problem. It's just that this has come up a few times now "the Beatles aren't rock" or whatever. But people always bring up Yesterday as support. Well, I noticed you didn't use Nothing Else Matters as your token Metallica song to prove that they rock. You picked what I assume is one of their harder rock songs to prove your point. That's valid - it makes sense. I'm just tired of reading that the Beatles aren't rock music b/c they wrote some great ballads. I know. Same thing happened with CSNY. People cried "Our House" isn't rock. Yeah, well how about "Woodstock" or "Almost Cut My Hair?"
