  1. It was an interesting episode. Personally, I would have just set fire to the rock quary and put up more barriers. Heck, just use that tractor store, and get some some of those whirly things of death and mow the zombie lawn. Crazy Rick is fun though. I think one of the kids did it at the end.
  2. Oh is that the same guy? I vaguely remember him, but don't watch many NL games.
  3. So I just turn on the Cards Cubs game. look at all that blue. Except behind the plate. Wow a Card fan decided to represent. Wait a minute, a Marlins shirt? What, were they trying to make a point of a Miami Marlins vs Chicago Cubs?
  4. And looking at the map in the link above. Due to where they think it is, it's doubtful this is the plane. But if it is. Talk about the US screwing the pooch on their intelligence.
  5. Report: MH370 wreckage may have been found in the Philippines Couldn't find the original thread. Oh well. hopefully they really did find it.
  6. going on that route. I think they could buy every MLB, NHL, NBA, and NFL team in California. heck, at least with that investment, Californians will get too root for their team, and eventually make their money back once the teams are sold.
  7. 30 lb burrito is already a daunting task. But a ghost pepper margarita is just dirty pool.
  8. Interesting piece. They delve into this topic since the Holliday incident. Even goes back to a 2010 Utley slide. Looks like this site has been talking about the take out slide for years. With articles attached to past articles about this type of slide. I just got to the Utley article, and looks like there is more. http://thebaseballcodes.com/category/slide-properly/
  9. That movie in 70 mm was amazing. Don't see many theaters that can handle that width anymore. But man is it impressive.
  10. Yes, it's confirmed. As a geek, it's interesting in a way the mishmash of tech. Starting with the PC, going to mac, going to internet, going to chat rooms, going to servers, going to gaming. The story lines that I'm picking up really seem like IBM PC, Mac, AOL, Dell, probably like a Belkin type server, Ultima, Atari. I'm sure they will get to World of Warcraft soon. I think the biggest problem with season 1 is that they made it like there wouldn't be a season 2. So everything is rushed. It went from making the cheap PC. To now everything in season 2. I would have liked to see more of the PC vs Mac wars that led to a server system. Which could have led to the dial up vs broadband conflict.
  11. Unfortunately I agree. But the upper tier SP's are safe bets compared to the upper tier SP's the Angels currently have. Plausible scenarios next season. Weavers fastball is in the 70 mph range. CJ's surgery wasn't successful. Heaney does a Shoemaker. Skaggs doesn't come back to form. And IMO, none of our current starters are #1 type starters next season.
  12. Personally, I think that this suspension is absurd. He broke no rules. And the Players Union will have a lot to say about this. They will not give the commissioner this type of power. Because as baseball goes, this type of precedence of suspending a player just because NY is mad is a bad road to go down. This is one of those points, that can cause a shutdown after the 2016 CBA. Because it's just too much power for the Commissioners office to suspend someone on a whim. And that's what it is, since it's something that happens all the time. commissioner has said that this rule was broken. 5.09 (a) (13) which reads: Considering A the defender never touched the bag thus the play was still alive at second. B he did not leave the baseline. It's one thing to come out and say that this will no longer be tollerated, and put every player on notice. Which is what should be done. It's totally another thing to all of a sudden say this is not legal, you are suspended because we like NY better. Even though the rules themselves say it was a legal play.
  13. California bullet train project is attracting interest — but not funding We really need this thing to die already.
  14. Because they figure they need the protection after being robbed of tuition money?
  15. Best comic strip ever. I just checked. And surprisingly, there is no far side comic app. That would be epic to get a new old far side a day. Better yet, if the app can change your wallpaper to the far side comic of the day.
  16. This Haunted House Is so Intense They Make You Sign a Waiver Have you been here, and is it worth the hype?
  17. Just curious. But is this a NCAA violation? And if it isn't, I'm sure the NCAA will put in a new rule to make sure it is.
  18. Just looking at stats this season. Moustakis and Carpenter. Maybe Seager. Then it's a huge dropoff.
  19. Off-duty Memphis police officer killed; details 'sketchy' Grass clippings on the sidewalk set him off? Not sure which one it set off though.
  20. And yet people have the biggest hard on for Heyward. The guy that was the #4 hitter for the team with the best record in baseball. Who only had 60 RBI's. With a career high of 82 RBI's in a season. Who with runners in scoring position had a .708 OPS, .264 avg, .359 OBP. He can't hit anybody in. Just walk in pressure situations and hope the guy behind him can get the job done. Oh, and in three years, .729 OPS with a high OBP and low avg. You know the saying, we want a hitter, not a belly itcher. And Heyward is a belly itcher. Crawford 2.0.
  21. So what happens if Utley appeals? This is going to get interesting.
  22. Better than that POS fear the walking dead. At least walking dead got rid of some of the annoying people. Like the wife and the blonde. Just need to get rid of the kid.
  23. Palestinian killed, Arab attacks Israelis as unrest mounts Well, this won't help the area at all.
