I even have 2 Tombstones in the freezer...but I bought them for my dad to eat while he's here for brewers games, and they're supreme. UCK I strongly dislike supreme pizza. Onions and peppers and mushrooms are not good pizza toppings, in my opinion.

While I dont mean to nit-pick. Im an avid "tecmo" bowl player. I get annoyed when people call it "techno" bowl. On a related note, I have a matchup against a random guy in my hometown for 20$ who thinks he can beat me. I told him Id take Tampa Bay. He laughed at me........ahhh the joys of Wayne Haddix.....name drop anyone?

ohhh, He was great but Id take Joey Browner and Mark Carrier over him and a sleeper would have to be Gill Byrd

It's rainy monsoonal buckets here and I'm loving every minute of it. First storm of the year is always the best.

I realized I had put on some weight in the past two years, but it hit me hard tonight while up to bat in the softball game, I hear "Come on Big Guy, get a hit" http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

Nice, Jason. So some Brew Crew people did their wacky dances in front of your sweet ride?

 

Your post reminds me of the last couple of Triple Play Trivia questions I've seen, which contestants have completely blown. The first one was Sunday, I think. The choices were Gagne and two other players. The first question was something like "Played on the Canadian national team." That and the other two clues weren't enough for the contestant.

 

Today the choices were Gagne, Riske and Shouse. One of the questions cited a pitching stat from this player's recent stint with the Royals. Dude says, "It's gotta be Gagne!" Buzzer sounds. We boo.

 

They should be asking me these questions! I get them right every time, usually after just one clue.

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.

This probably sounds harsh, but if anyone gets those Triple Play Trivia questions wrong they likely know very little about baseball. One time the choices were Counsell, Rivera, and I want to say Kapler (someone who was obviously not hispanic), and the first question goes "This player was born in Puerto Rico." Seriously?

At least they know very little about Brewers players. I'm sure if I were on camera with a mic in my face, it would be harder for me to put thoughts together, but wow, it's not like they build some major tossups into the questions.

I guess this is when we should remind ourselves that those fans are helping pay for CC too. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Darn, still wish I coulda snared that foul ball Tuesday. Only if it was two inches closer. Who knows when the next chance will be?

Old school is awesome. I've been playing my old Sega Saturn all week.

2 questions with iTunes...

 

1) How do they determine which part of the song they cut down for their preview? I have listened to plenty of songs which the selected 30 seconds is not the best representation for the entire song.

 

2) Why are some albums by an artist on iTunes, while others are not?
