    My best at bowling is 245, but the best on our system is my kid's buddy who bowled a 275. He lets the ball go in mid-air and it doesn't hook into the pocket, it just smashes into the head pin and everything else just disappears! I'm also pro at golf, although I've only got a 2 under as my best I'm at about 1230. Baseball is fun, but you gotta believe that when they get the graphics sorted with real players faces etc. there's gonna be an unreal baseball sim.

    You had me at "intermittent cleavage from Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek"!

    2 albums on heavy rotation at the moment. The Shins - Wincing The Night Away Seems to be some difference of opinion on this board (that NEVER happens!) about this album. I was hesitant about how it would sound based on the dreadful title, and their performance on SNL a couple of weeks ago, when I thought it was almost unlistenable. Doncha just love being wrong? I've been pressing "repeat" on my iTunes for this album every time I listen to it (which I never do - with over 7000 tracks, I can usually stumble upon something else I want to hear). I find that if the lead single isn't even the 3rd best track on an album, that's one of my guidelines. The tracks "Sea Legs", "Red Rabbits" and "Sleeping Lessons" are all better IMO than "Phantom Limb". Just a damn good listen is all. !!! - Myth Takes What is it with dodgy album titles? Did bad puns make a comeback and I missed the memo? Following up 2004's "Louden Up Now", New Yorkers !!! (ahem...chk, chk, chk) have produced the latest in what will possibly be a long line of herky-jerky punk funk in 2007. What with new albums from Bloc Party (also worth a listen btw), LCD Soundsystem and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, I'm in hog heaven. You can dance to it ( not that I will, that'd be creepy!), and there are great nods to Talking Heads, XTC, APB (remember them?), Devo and Madchester bands like Stone Roses and Happy Mondays. Standout tracks "Heart of Hearts" and "Bend Over Beethoven" are also nice and long - essential when you start to get into a groove, I find.

    Not to hijack the thread (much), but for fans of The Office, the new Ricky Gervais comedy series Extras started Season 2 tonight on HBO. If you haven't checked it out yet, do yourself a favor and watch the first season on On Demand. Go on....you'll thank me! Patrick Stewart dsecribing his script for a movie where he uses psychic powers to make girls' clothes fall off is just priceless.

    Whichever one goes, the other will be the Brewerfan.net whipping boy. On that you can be sure...

    The way the market has gone this Winter, doesn't the first half of the sentence contradict the second?

    According to Bill Hicks, life doesn't begin until you are in his phone book! I wonder who's right...http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    You probably don't want to see the Jack Wilson Playgirl shoot then!

    Having NOT stood in line for 16 hours (for which I can thank my stepson!), my initial reaction to WiiSports was that I was disappointed with the graphical features but the playability of the tennis and bowling games is tremendous. The bowling in particular is very intuitive - if you've ever bowled before, you can simulate a pretty good hook ball in no time at all. Beating your high game, as usual, is where the addiction kicks in! And the tennis might just be the best workout I've had all week! When they get a quality baseball title with player's likenesses and all, I predict whole months of not getting any sleep. At the moment the basic graphics (players don't even have legs!) is a little off-putting, but apparently this is just to show you what the system can do. I think the official Nintendo position was "it's free so shut your yap"!

    Somebody get those paddle thingies they use on ER - that may well have been the biggest nailbiter this year. Sheets must be down to his stumps!

    All I can say is... Grande cojones Senor Cordero!

    Absolutely. I can't believe Yost's "Pitcher Getting Hit On The Arm By A Line Drive" Goggles weren't working! Sheesh...

    Based on the Cubs board, looks like the elevators in the Sears Tower are gonna be working at full capacity all night!

    I take it there's no chance of a PBP for those of us not near a radio?

    I did not think "royalty" was gonna be the last word in that sentence!

    Did the South African WBC team show up by mistake?

    Hell, why not! I might as well play 6 leagues as opposed to only 5!

    Surely the lack of a "control" situation - with the same pitcher pitching to the same hitter, in the same game situation, but with different guys at 1st base, make this an impossible intangible to calculate.
