  1. I have no intention to rip on the South, but this is a pretty funny statement due to the fact that the South has the worst 5-6 states in terms of lowest average IQ. http://www.sq.4mg.com/IQ-States.htm 3 states below Alabama. It looks like a you could draw a line in order to determine sides in the civil war.
  2. You mean like using a Big 10 diploma? His opinion of Bama is very unimportant unlike toilet paper. Do my opinions matter? Is there a list I can reference for these matters?

  4. What did I just hear? "The Hottest sport"?
  5. I agree. I grew up going to IHL/AHL Wolves games. It just seems more fair, and it takes like 2 minutes longer. I do not, however, like the repeating shooters rule.

  7. Been a great game.
  8. She had a dinner with Shuster to get to. Couldn't go to 11.
  9. Stupid Dutch. They may still win right here, but I agree with the announcers on this.
  10. Upper Deck Box by far. No risk of having your view blocked by people constantly walking in front of you on the walkway and the view is fantastic. You're right on top of the terrace box seats, so it's not like you're further back, either. And it's much more open. No sense of being cramped under the overhang surrounded by thousands of people. It used to be a real no-brainer prior to a few years ago when UD Box seats were cheaper relative to other seating, but they've really raised the price on those seats recently. Here are a couple of examples: 418: http://www.seatdata.com/images/mlb_cubs/800x600/418.jpg 218: http://www.seatdata.com/images/mlb_cubs/800x600/218.jpg (first 3 or 4 rows, I believe) I thought it was 7 or 8
  11. The easy thing is to go to a game, it's incredible. Seriously, even lower level hockey games are great live.
  12. There we go!
  13. Or just beat Canada
  14. This makes me upset over losing the 2016 all over again. It would have been a once in a lifetime event.
  15. I need to watch that when I get home. He looks great.
  16. I had no problems with it, thought it was funny.
  17. I've never thought of you as sarcastic.
  18. Why would you want a shot at Boston. It's not catharsis, if they just beat you all over again. Troll all you want, I don't care, just want to see you in April. It's not trolling, short of a major injury, the Bulls don't stand a chance against the top 3. I won't disagree with that, but below is trolling.
  19. Nice pass, pretty shot
  20. Same tournament format in Torino, 6-3 made the medal rounds, 5-4 did not.
  21. You fat [expletive]! [expletive]! What the [expletive] is your problem, seriously, go to [expletive] hell, eat [expletive] [expletive] sucker!
  22. Hey look, he screwed up again!
  23. And he just blew it in the 8th.
  24. They are. #05676. No lines whatsoever today or yesterday.
  25. Yeah. My brother was (and still is) the eternal optimist, and he got super pissed at me when I told him that the NCLS was over, and they might as well not even play Game 7 because no matter what, the Marlins would win. He started yelling at me, and I took out my wallet and slapped a 20 (the entire contents of my wallet, which was a lot because I was a poor college student) down on the table. I said "If the Cubs win this game, this is yours. You don't owe me anything if they lose." When Kerry homered, he was bragging and wondering how he was going to spend his 20 bucks. All I did was look at him and say "just wait." After the last out was made, he didn't talk to me the rest of the night. Optimist, pessimist or otherwise, you had no idea whether the series was over or not. The loudest prediction was all yours was. Go look in a game thread, people like you love being the one who "called" the loss first, as if it is some sort of badge. Really though you are simply a loud mouth oaf, and putting it on display for everyone. Nice to know I have fans. A tip: There IS an ignore button. And why are you calling ME out on this when at least two other posters said they also thought it was over after Game 6? Yet I'm the one being singled out. I know, it's because I was the ONLY Cubs fan who was still hurt and frustrated by the previous night's loss, right? Everyone else was peachy keen after that and I was the only one pissed off. That's gotta be it. People only remember the negative. If that's what you want to do, fine, but I do post optimistic and good things in game threads as well, like "I think Aram's going to homer here" or "excellent start for Wells today" or things to that effect. I'm not going to say that I'm not vocal when I'm unhappy with how things are going, because I am very vocal. I have high expectations and i'm sick to death of waiting for a world series.I'm going to get called a liar about the optimistic stuff, and if you must call me out on it like some badge of honor, be my guest. However you choose to remember your game thread experience is just fine by me. And getting back to the thread topic: The 20k game is my favorite baseball game of all time, and *gasp* I was actually CHEERING and OPTIMISTIC during that game and for pretty much the entire 1998 season! I know, I know. Big shocker. Feel free to mark this date on the calendar if you wish. Your posts go further towards making you looking like an idiot than I could ever dream of with insults.
