  1. Oh no, its not looking good for Robert and the boys. Zeps last plea for voters. Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while, Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile. Friends, did you get some silver? Did you get a little gold? What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the Gallows Pole? What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole? Save Zep and vote now!
  2. Same as ... The Metallica party The AC/DC party The Pantera party ... and on and on. I wouldn't go to any of those parties. I wouldnt either and i like those bands. Life is good when im listening to Zep. Im inclined to have more fun (and probably drink more, stay out later, etc etc.) listeng to LZ than the Beatles.
  3. Its really pretty simple. If i had a choose between 2 parties and one place was playing Zep in the background and the other was the Beatles, I would go to the Zep party everytime.
  4. Uh huh. How many D1 teams would love Lloyds career record. He is among the winningest active football coaches in NCAA Division I-A, has won five Big Ten titles, and brought Michigan its first national championship in 49 years. He has led the Wolverines to five Top Ten finishes in the last nine seasons. The Wolverines have played in three Rose Bowl game and one Orange Bowl game under his leadership. Say what you want about last year, but over his career he is a model of consitancy and almost every AD in the nation would love to have their football program 'underachieve' so much. ND ranked #1 or #3 whats the difference. They are going to lose to Michigan in the 3rd week of the year anyway. 8) How's it going Mrs. Carr? Mrs.?? Heck after this year if they dont beat ND and OSU it might be Ms. to you. No joke, it will be safer to live downtown Detroit than AA. I agree with whats been said earlier, a one loss team could win this thing and WVU might sneak in the back door.

  6. "Breakfast with the Beatles" was (is?) a 3 or 4 hour weekly radio program that was dedicated to their songs, their outtakes and alternate takes, other musicians covering their songs, etc. I wouldn't doubt if there were other shows like that throughout the country. Not to mention events such as Beatlefest which celebrate the Beatles. Metallica was my favorite band for several years, I had every album until St. Anger, Master of Puppets and Fade To Black are two of my favorite songs, and I still enjoy listening to them. That said, in my opinion The Beatles are hands-down the better band. Obviously, though, the two bands are quite different and likely attract quite a different fanbase. "Breakfast with the Beatles is still a weekly regular on XRT... a Chicago station that spent an entire broadcast day playing U2's "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb" non-stop prior to its release..... Greatness isn't measured in decibels. Thats a good thing otherwise Spinal Tap would rule the world. Their amps went to eleven. One louder.
  7. I prefer Pink to Queen. I really never get to excited about Queen. I dont think they suck im just luke warm on them. My wife said Floyd was the best concert she has ever gone too, so also for her im casting this vote.
  8. I love Battery. Such a great song to open such a kick ass album. The accoustic guitar opening followed by the steamrolling pure metal madness. And it works brilliantly. Awesome. Orion flat out kicks it. I cant think of too many songs that last 8 minutes without lyrics i would rather listen too. Cliff Burton on the bass totally rocks that song out.
  9. I too think Guzman is more appt conparison. Omar had better ISoD in the minors than Iz so i would look at that as an another indicator as why it might be a reach for him to perform like Omar in MLB. If you want to compare this Cub move to another Cub move i would compare it more towards the 3 year deal to Alez Gonzalez. Iz is Alez without the pop and the ks. At least with this one they didnt commit 3 years. Only and year and half.....yeah i know, glass half full. The BABIP stat is interesting if it is low for Iz, especially the LD% part. Also it looks like in roughly 100 AB this year Iz actually has more BB than Ks. This is a good trend, albeit small, but still noteworthy to me.
  10. Not as much as the Beatles or Led Zeppelin... I don't know what your thoughts are, I'm just putting it out there. You must be joking. If Cliff Burton-era Metallica can be called over-rated, than so can the Beatles and Zeppelin. I'll agree 90's and later Metallica is nothing special, but the first Metallica 3 records are as much masterpieces as any Zep or Beatles recordings. Uhh, sorry, but no. Nothing Metallica has ever done can compare to Revolver or Rubber Soul in the "masterpiece" category. For that matter, nothing they've done can compare to Sgt. Pepper, The White Album, Abbey Road... well if you need to be picky, I'd say that Master of Puppets is the best heavy metal record ever made. If you don't want to put it up with beatles stuff, fine, but it's definitely one of the best records ever made I'm on your side Derwood, but ...And Justice For All was absolutely unbelievable musically. 9 songs and 63 minutes of pure awesomeness. I understand the argument that they went too far with AJFA but I absolutely love that album. IMO opinion it's not significantly better than Master of Puppets and I will gladly listen to either any day, but I think AJFA is a bit better. ...and justice would be closer in my eyes if the album didn't sound like crap. the songs are superb, but it's a bad recording. the lack of (or really turned down) bass hurts it also. Yeah what bass. I thought they did it to be jerks to Newsted. I know it pissed him off you could barely hear it. And yes.....Masters of Puppets is a MASTERPIECE. Sanitarium people.
  11. Now tell me again why Novoa has pitched more than Weurtz?
  12. Did Hill get any groundball outs? I missed an inning or so. Pujols and Eckstein in the first.
  13. You would think with his AAA numbers he would be at least serviceable. He hasnt been yet. Hill is an ENIGMA. Thats the view i am sharing.
  14. Yeah. Hes hitting 92 and 93. When he was up before he was at 89-91 tops i remember.
  15. AWESOME Whoever says that?? Its time for Dusty to 'hump off' now, not later. Stupid Speir pisses me off too, he blew it.
  16. I was going to watch this game on HD. I just got a new set this week. I wasnt getting the ESPNHD channel. So i called tech support, the tech lady literally broke the cable box and i dont get any signal at all. now i gotta watch it in the basement. Jerklady.
  17. Both these bands are British, they dont know what a bloody mile is. The drummer for the Kinks Mick Avory was at one brief time the drummer for the Stones in 1962. He wins no matter what.
  18. Can't You Hear Me Knocking. Knocking the crap out of the Kinks.
  19. Absolutely, that double disc live Zep concert DVD is just SICK SICK SICK. If i coud go back in time but only 5 times, going to a Led Zep concert would be in that top 5.
  20. Today i dont care about Priors walks. All in all pretty good stat line against a good offense. Novoa Baaaahlooows.
