  1. I was so close. I refreshed my page to see the bag of crap appear. Finally. I could smell the sweet smell of floppy disks and hear the screech of a defective leak frog. I was so, so close. But after countless attempts, all I got was "Server is too busy". Damn you Woot.
  2. 1. Seinfeld And the rest... Family Guy The Office Arrested Development The Simpsons 30 Rock It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Saturday Night Live Mystery Science Theater 3000 Scrubs
  3. Prison Break - I loved the show for the first two seasons, but lost interest near the end the last season. Lots of shows go in circles, but this one takes it to a new level. The Simpsons - Just put it out of its misery already. American Idol - I'm just sick of hearing about it. MTV (Everything) - Listening to Paris Hilton's my new BFF(my roomies gf comes over and watches it) makes me want to hurt myself . According to Jim - Comedies that aren't funny shouldn't last this long.
  4. From the Chicago Tribune: The current plan is to have Escobar work with new coach Willie Randolph[/i] at second base during the spring. …
  5. Unless everything in your laptop is fried you can still get the stuff off of your hard drive using a external enclosure for the drive in your laptop.
  6. I'm guessing that most people that like Cameron are looking at the numbers rather than being guided by personal biases. And you probably feel that Derek Jeter's jock strap would be sufficient compensation.
  7. I very rarely watch the Bucks but had the game on while is was doing homework. Fun game to watch. I didn't get much homework done, though.
  8. I don't see either of those moves happening. I can't see Doug spending a lot of money on a closer again anytime soon. And why would we want Paul Byrd? If Ben and CC leave and no trades are made for starting pitching, I think McClung or Villanueva would be better options than Byrd. If we needed some old, mediocre starter to fill out the rotation I'm sure Zduriencik would love to send us Jarrod Washburn for almost nothing.

  11. http://www.speedtest.net/result/347739019.png Yeah, so I guess UW-Milwaukee dominates UW-Oshkosh.
  12. Biggest hit of Jenkins's career?
  13. I don't know if Brenly is in the running for the Seattle job or not, but maybe if he landed that job, word got out that Sutcliffe was getting the TV job, so they assumed it was Brenly to Milwaukee.
  14. It's not a transaction, but our old friend Luis Vizcaino was recently arrested for DUI.
  15. If rare mishaps make one pathetic defensively, you'll be hard pressed to find any player that isn't pathetic defensively. Overall, Braun stunk in September as well...what a hack. And JJ stunk in April...he must be a hack. CC stunk in April and October...why do so many people want to sign that bum? It would be much easier just to say you don't like Cameron than to hunt for small samples and individual plays that support your claims.
  16. Yes, but most managers would just place another reliever in Percival's role.
  17. Melvin's whole experienced/successful criteria is just silly, imo. Melvin should choose candidates based on their philosophy on baseball, not whether they happened to manage good teams or not. Sure Brenly had success in Arizona, but anyone would have had success in Arizona with that team. Then look at Joe Maddon. He may lack experience and previous success, but his philosophy on baseball is solid. His punting of the closers role has been masterful. I would much rather have some relatively unknown guy with baseball smarts than a well-known, respected idiot who was lucky enough to manage a great team.
  18. I think a "Wild Card Winner" or "Wild Card Champions" banner would be the butt of many jokes when teams with more consistent success come to town.
  19. Jack certainly deserved a promotion, but this hurts.
  20. Attanasio did have Suppan over for dinner at his house, something that doesn't seem to be the norm. I'd call that meddling.
  21. I don't know about that one. You can add: 4) We need a big game pitcher if we're gonna contend. We're gonna sign Jeff Suppan.
  22. Under the assumption that JJ doesn't want to be moved to third and Sveum is brought back: CF - Mike Cameron 2B - Mark Loretta (FA Contract, somewhat of a platoon with Counsell) LF - Ryan Braun 1B - Prince Fielder 3B - Adrian Beltre (From Seattle for Rickie Weeks) RF - Corey Hart (make this a platoon with Matt Gamel around the end of May) SS - Alcides Escobar C - Jason Kendall Bench - Counsell, Hall, Nelson, Rivera SP - Yovani Gallardo SP - Matt Cain (From SF for JJ Hardy) SP - Manny Parra SP - Dave Bush SP - Jeff Suppan CL - Salomon Torres (for a month, then McClung) RP - Seth McClung RP - Carlos Villanueva RP - Todd Coffey RP - David Riske RP - Brian Shouse RP - Mitch Stetter RP - Tim Dillard
  23. I can't help but think that in February this topic will be revived with someone explaining how the camp was cut short because they punched Cecil Cooper in the mouth.
  24. The Remington 870 is a good shotgun. A few people in my family use them. I assume you'll be using it to hunt feral cats in Minnesota. If you're looking for a new one, periodically check the prices at Gander Mountain, Dicks, Fleet Farm, etc. and wait til' one of them inevitably puts them on sale for deer season.
