Inigo, if there's an injury soon, I expect Waters to get the call. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 06:41 12
- I agree with the Waters idea, but still don't see Patton coming up before September. -- nm - Inigo Apr 24, 06:56 1
  - What I've read seemed to indicate that he could be brought up before then. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 07:24
- And why the hell is Reimold not playing with the big club??? nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 06:51 5
  - As Will said, nowhere for him to play. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 07:01
  - Logjam in the OF and at 1B. - Will Hunting Apr 24, 06:55 3
    - I like Luke Scott, but they really should trade him. - Inigo Apr 24, 06:58 2
      - They need a trading partner. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 07:09
      - Yeah. Let's see what the other guys can do. - Will Hunting Apr 24, 07:01
- As soon as they're healthy, I'd bring any of them playing well at AAA up. - Will Hunting Apr 24, 06:43 3
  - I wouldn't. Healthy and at AAA doesn't = ready. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 06:55 2
    - "Playing well at AAA up" - Will Hunting Apr 24, 07:00 1
      - The only one I'd trust right now is Hernandez. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 24, 07:15
LYC- Played Team Fortress 2 last night on Xbox Live. Tons of fun. Anyone here play it? -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 06:35 33
- yeah I do. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 24, 06:51 1
  - I'll add you to my friends list then. -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 07:07
- I think most people here prefer that Halo game or whatever it's called. -- nm - Shaun Apr 24, 06:37 30
  - *twitches* nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 06:39 6
    - its friday, this means - tRuMaN Apr 24, 06:56 5
      - what version is everyone playing? -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 07:05 4
        
        Halo 3 with all the downloadable maps. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 07:07 3
        
        What do the maps cost, 800 points as usual? -- nm - Krusty Apr 24, 07:12 2
        
        yup yup -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 24, 07:18
        
        yes, legendary and mythic cost 800 points each, I think -- nm - Beryllium Apr 24, 07:15
  - :(. Not a fan of halo. Maybe I'll pick up a used copy. -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 06:38 22
    - I wasn't either but it's a lot of fun playing multi-player with a bunch of STers. - Krusty Apr 24, 06:42 21
      - Halo substitutes taking cover by having the Spartan armour. You can take a pretty good pounding in that stuff. -- nm - Shaun Apr 24, 06:51 15
        
        I'd still prefer to avoid taking those shots by ducking behind something. - Krusty Apr 24, 06:54 14
        
        Well, let me tell you from my Gears 2 experience ... cover ain't shit. - Beryllium Apr 24, 07:11 1
        
        My favorite recent FPS is COD:4 and the cover system was fantastic. - Krusty Apr 24, 07:16
        
        cover is a premium on most maps, and you have to have a good playing level to find and use it. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 24, 06:55 2
        
        All I want is to be able to push or hold a button and be able to take cover behind different objects. - Krusty Apr 24, 06:59 1
        
        well, most cover is done by crouching behind stuff, but I see your point - tRuMaN Apr 24, 07:01
        
        Agreed. That's why KZ2 is superior :) -- nm - Shaun Apr 24, 06:54 8
        
        I *really* want to play KZ2 but I can't justify buying a PS3 for a game or three. - Krusty Apr 24, 06:56 1
        
        See below. Plus there are 6 classes of character you can use. It's wicked. -- nm - Shaun Apr 24, 06:59
        
        as a pure fps it is superior, but as an online multiplayer platform, I have no idea yet. - tRuMaN Apr 24, 06:55 5
        
        Multiplayer is fun! I haven't even played the solo content yet. -- nm - Redmond (good thoughts for Amoxy) Apr 24, 07:01
        
        It's amazing, imo. Some of the most fun games are the Capture and Hold/Search and Destroy ones. - Shaun Apr 24, 06:57 3
        
        sure, it is more like TF2 than halo though - tRuMaN Apr 24, 07:02 2
        
        Halo is a lot more casual gamer friendly, no doubts there. -- nm - Shaun Apr 24, 07:05 1
        
        that battle against - tRuMaN Apr 24, 07:21
      - Yes, I like TF2 because there are places to hide and take cover. -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 06:46 4
        
        TF2 comes with The Orange Box, correct? I've meant to pick that up so many times. - Krusty Apr 24, 06:52 3
        
        Orange box is the shit! -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 07:04
        
        orange box was one of my first games for the 360 - tRuMaN Apr 24, 06:56 1
        
        I really enjoyed the demo, very original game. I could probably get it cheap now. *makes a note to check prices* -- nm - Krusty Apr 24, 07:03

- I have comments that I want to say to some people but I think its best not to.... - Walt_Disney Apr 24, 06:42 2
  - I tried reading the BB but had to give up. -- nm - Krusty Apr 24, 07:10
  - *yawn* nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 06:52
- *looks for the whore of the backboards* nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 06:34 2
  - Judging by his walking attire, I think that might be JaxSean. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 24, 06:36

- I know...can you believe that jackass Cuzzin Todd spoiled Three' -- nm - Jim Apr 24, 06:33 1
  - s Company for me. See? I'm so messed up, I can't even post!!! -- nm - Jim Apr 24, 06:34
- actually, the gay ball player thread is the funniest thread in ages. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 24, 06:33 3
  - It's funny in a cringing way for me at this point. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 24, 06:35 1
    - it's funny before it even gets to that though. -- nm - Andie - get well Amoxy! Apr 24, 06:37
  - This is my point. I went to bed before the rest of it, but holy crap, the Homo League thread was good for my heart. - TFox Apr 24, 06:35
Mother spends �12,000 on surgery so she can look like her daughter - oh boy. -- (link) - LMS Apr 24, 06:28 2
- I still think the mom looks better. -- nm - lileve Apr 24, 06:32 1
  - I think the daughter was in a David Lynch movie. -- nm - LMS Apr 24, 06:37
I'm confused. So there's a gay elf baseball player? -- nm - Dano Apr 24, 06:27 2
- and his name is Brad Pitt -- nm - znufrii Apr 24, 06:28 1
  - lmao -- nm - Stacy Apr 24, 06:32
LYC: I suck at dialing internationally. I can't make this number work. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:20 20
- your not calling India are you? -- nm - Stacy Apr 24, 06:21 19
  - Ethiopia. I just got voice mail on a different number. what the hell language is that? -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:22 18
    - Amharic, apparently. never heard anything like it before. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:23 16
      - Not a Mel Gibson fan? -- nm - Roger More Apr 24, 06:41 13
        
        is Amharic the same as Aramaic? -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:42 12
        
        wiki says they're different. And actually I have heard Aramaic in real life! I went to Mass at a Maronite church, and they use Aramaic. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:43 10
        
        they easily confusible, so they must have lots in common! -- nm - Roger More Apr 24, 06:45
        
        that's kind of awesome. -- nm - znufrii Apr 24, 06:44 8
        
        It's in Brooklyn! -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:45 7
        
        here you go, it's on Remsen ST. Very worthwhile. You may not see, anywhere else, a Missal printed in Arabic script. -- (link) - loosilu Apr 24, 06:49 1
        
        awesome, thanks! -- nm - znufrii Apr 24, 06:52
        
        Why am I not surprised? :) - znufrii Apr 24, 06:47 4
        
        my cousins are Maronite, and I've been with them. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 06:49 3
        
        biblically? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 24, 07:16 2
        
        too far. -- nm - loosilu Apr 24, 07:19 1
        
        i stopped myself from making a similar post -- nm - zork Apr 24, 07:20
        
        I wouldn't think so -- nm - znufrii Apr 24, 06:42

  - [deleted] 2
    - Livan shouldn't have pitched him again after that first at bat. He doesn't have anything that could get Pujols out, he's better off walking him than - Krusty Apr 24, 06:30
    - There's nothing like a sweep of the Pond Scum. -- nm - Jim Apr 24, 06:24
- BERKMAN!!!!! nm -- nm - groiny Apr 24, 06:18
- Hell yeah! -- nm - Callisto Apr 24, 06:18 12
  - So, what do you think...is Ryan Franklin our closer? nm - Jim Apr 24, 06:24 6
    - I sure do like him...just for the beard alone! -- nm - Callisto Apr 24, 06:31 3
      - Heh...saw them interview him after the game Wednesday...he doesn't show any signs that he's going to shave it... - Jim Apr 24, 06:32 2

    - [deleted] 1
      - Well, Perez was supposed to be the guy. But we broke camp with Motte as our closer. - Jim Apr 24, 06:29
  - [deleted] 4
    - You know...he's played in 13 of 16 games. So it's not like he's getting benched all the time. - Jim Apr 24, 06:23 3
      - [deleted] 2
        
        He's got hitting stats for 13 games and we're 11-5...I think one of those 13 was a pinchhit appearance. -- nm - Jim Apr 24, 06:28 1
        
        Either way, Tony's got 4 pretty darn good bats in his outfield.... - Jim Apr 24, 06:30
