Thank God I haven't bought the remastered Beatles box set yet. -- (link) - nubby Nov 4, 18:12 4

        The exact same pitch got called for a ball without even a question for the Phillies. -- nm - Reagen Nov 4, 18:28
        
        It was not. It was barely over the inside line of the box. -- nm - TFox Nov 4, 18:19
        
        Umpire's blood courses through this one's veins, like the giant radioactive marching rubber pants of doom. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 4, 18:15

  - uhm...that was Bery. -- nm - the liioulu with more wax Nov 4, 18:09 2

- Based on a true story, sort of. -- nm - the liioulu with more wax Nov 4, 17:48 3
  - at least based on a book -- nm - lone canadian leafs fan Nov 4, 18:11 1
    - Well...the story's true up until his graduation speech. ;) - the liioulu with more wax Nov 4, 18:18

- How about a naked man chasing a baseball? -- nm - mara Nov 4, 17:50 1
  - Steven Seagal chasing running down a bad guy comes pretty close. - Max Nov 4, 17:55
pfm, what did you hate about Lovely Bones? Was it the subject matter/plot, or did you hate the book was written, etc? - kelly Nov 4, 17:43 2
- I cannot hate any of it. Alice & her husband Glenn are friends -- nm - peglegpete Nov 4, 17:45 1
  - That's great. prayformojo said he hated it, though, so I was curious why. -- nm - kelly Nov 4, 19:05
wee! Wii on the big screen :) -- nm - Beryllium (Wii) Nov 4, 17:37 1

Jeter is popular, right? no drugs, guns, affairs, or beatings history? nobody hates him, is that correct? -- nm - Max Nov 4, 17:35 15
- "He looks like the Rock had sex with a Muppet." nm - ralph wiggum Nov 4, 18:34 1

- I think pretty much everyone who follows baseball respects him. -- nm - David Nov 4, 17:38
- I hate his dating history. -- nm - Spawn Nov 4, 17:37
- I wouldn't say hated. He's overhyped as all Yankees are. -- nm - Reagen Nov 4, 17:37
- "You suck, Jetah!" - nubby Nov 4, 17:37
- Some people will hate him *because* of all that. nm - Dignan Nov 4, 17:37 6
  - Some people will hate him just because he is a Yankee -- nm - amoxy Nov 4, 17:37 5
    - Some people call me the space cowboy. nm - Dignan Nov 4, 17:39 4
      - I am a Rock, I am an Island -- nm - amoxy Nov 4, 17:44
      - but does Jeter have more charisma than Bill Murray? -- nm - Max Nov 4, 17:40 2
        
        nary a chance. Bill Murray is the quintessence of charisma. That guy has more charisma in his pinky finger than most -- nm - CQ Nov 4, 17:43
        
        No. -- nm - the liioulu with more wax Nov 4, 17:43
