  1. The murder rate in Milwaukee has gone down since the early 90's.
  2. "Eastern Promises is considerably better than Cronenburg's last film History of Violence" That's good to know. I've been avoiding EP because of my disappointment in History of Violence. I'll bump it up the rental queue.
  3. When exactly is this check supposed to arrive?
  4. He has been bashed quite a bit around here for "making up" trade rumors. But I think he just reports what he hears. There are probably 50 proposed trade rumors for every 1 that actually goes down. Sure GMs probably use him knowing he'll spill beans but he's not the only guy in the media used that way. I like him - always have.
  5. I'll be going but my brother lives in Back Bay so I'm staying with him. Should be a good time. I think there will be a large Brew Crew contingent there.
  6. I was in Boston for work last summer and bought tix off Craig's List for about 10% above face. Granted, it was a mid week game. Just throwing that out there in case the online thing doesn't work out.
  7. Two different guys, TLB - first sentence for Fukudome and second for Soto
  8. That guy(or is it girl?) has a lot of weight on RBI (right or wrong) so any discussion of Hart will leave him with the shortest straw.
  9. Soriano may be better than Weeks but he is severely mis-cast as a lead off hitter.
  10. They really need to go back to wooden rackets and add some excitement and some extended rallies. It's all baseline play nowadays.
  11. I wonder if they're pimping him in order to build value for a trade? Probably not likely but you never know.
  12. Even if people save the money it still helps the economy. The only way it won't is if they cash the check and keep it under their mattress. Frankly, I'd rather they pay down debt instead of doing this.
  13. I remember when the Admirals used to play in front of pretty big crowds at MECCA - for some reason I want to say they averaged over 10K per game back in the day.
  14. "Take his height and weight and create any stat you want, but he comes out fat, and probably worse--obese by any medical measure. " The height/weight charts are horribly inaccurate at determining body composition for muscle bound individuals (i.e. wrestlers, football players, Prince Fielder etc.).
  15. For the record, I feel bad about these guys too: http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=710500
  16. "Why should I feel bad for his ex-wife, kid, and other family and friends of his when he obviously didn't care that much about them?" That makes absolutlely no sense. Zero. Zilch.
  17. I watched Lucky Number Slevin over the weekend and it was a good rental. I wouldn't say it's one of the best of the year or anything but a decent choice for a night at home with popcorn. It seemed like the filmmakers were going for a hybrid between Snatch and The Usual Suspects but could not equal the style of the former and the intelligence of the latter. I had guessed most of the ending 'ah ha!' moments about midway through the picture but was still surprised by a few turn of events.
  18. Yes, yes! !!!YES!!!!!!!!! You wish to make a purchase, yes?
  19. This thread makes me wanna wretch!
  20. "Center Street, which runs in Milwaukee, Wauwatosa, and Brookfield, is not named because of its relatively central location. It's named after Alexander Center, who surveyed the first two roads in Wisconsin in the 1830s. " I grew up near Center St and never knew that. Guess I didn't think to question the street name's origins. So does this mean that 81st street is named after Bob 81st?
  21. I'm Leyritzed. Too soon?
  22. What percent of your grade is the final?
  23. Graffiti 'artists'. Go spray paint each other would ya'?
  24. Reds apparently offered Bailey, Votto, and some other prospect.
