  1. I'm one of the biggest Sea Bass supporters, but he'll never be the difference between a good team and a bad team.
  2. I feel like Verlander is due for a letdown, especially with his extremely average 2nd half last year (4.54 ERA, 1.55 WHIP). Plus there's a big chance he gets hurt.
  3. "Boys and Girls" is an amazing album. I am seriously in love with it.
  4. If they are smart they won't have Zumaya closing games. Picking up Mesa was a terrible idea, because now they have two mediocre relievers (Jones, Mesa) fighting for the 9th inning spot. Neither of those guys should be used in any situation but the 9th inning with a 3 run lead. Zumaya is just so much better than either of them, but I fear for you guys that he's gonna end up the closer and Jones and Mesa will start giving up runs in the 7th/8th instead of the 9th. And I don't see their starting pitching being as good as it was last year. Just like the White Sox pitching fell off, I think their
  5. Everyone else in their division got worse, and they got better. That offense is going to put up TONS of runs because they added Also, a rotation of Zambrano, Rich Hill, Ted Lilly, Jason Marquis, and Mark Prior will be a lot better than people think. Rich Hill is going to have a really good year.
  6. Listening to the stream of that saturday show now, sounds fantastic. I'm seriously considering a road trip to Atlanta for their show (unless they are going to come to Florida, eh Solace?)
  7. The Beatles are all over this album, and it's great.
  8. I like the pick of Tulowitzki. Could make you look like a genius come season's end, especially since playing in Colorado should help him (though not as much as it would have a few years ago.) And with A-rod looking to opt out of his contract come season's end, it's not too far fetched that he will be traded. If the Marlins can't find a CFer and they are within 5 games, I wouldn't be shocked to see them trade for him, putting him back at short and moving Hanley to CF. I can dream, can't I? I get alot of shit on the Marlins board for saying we should trade for BJ Upton and stick him in cente
  9. For what it's worth, you can try songmeanings.net and check there... Me too. I thought I was part of the in crowd, too... I never liked Neko Case, personally, which is weird because I love redheads. In the indie rock world, she's definetly below Jenny Lewis, Chan Marshall, that new girl on the Decemberists (Lisa something), and both of Sufjan's back up singers. And I'd probably put Liz Phair above her too, if she's still considered indie.
  10. I started looking for pictures to prove you wrong, but now I don't even care.
  11. Young's OPS has fallen by 150-200 points in the last 2 years since his first two. And his On Base Percentage has to be worrying. He'll be solid this year, but I don't think he's rookie of the year. But then, of course last year Jeremy Hermida was a lock for RoY and Hanley Ramirez was fighting with Pokey Reese (!!!) for a roster spot, so that just goes to show that RoY is the hardest award to predict. And I think Sizemore's a great bet to win a couple as long as the voters continue to snub Santana, who you could make an argument for deserving every year, since he becomes absolutely untoucha
  12. Can I just say that Grady Sizemore is probably the most underrated player in the game? He's ridiculously good. Good choice. I'd have to argue with Young as ROY, but thats just because I'm a big fan of Alex Gordon, and I think he's got a realistic shot at 25 homers and 100 rbi with 15 steals or so, since he's stepping right into the heart of a not terrible batting order, at least at the top. With him Teahan, Ryan Shealy, and Dejesus at the top of the order, they won't be horrible. I like Young, but he's been unimpressive the last few years, and he seems to be getting worse in terms of plat
  13. Except they probably won't make the playoffs...
  14. 7 days until Spring Training games. 39 days 'til Opening Day!! The Marlins will be the first Major League team to face Dice-K, as he is scheduled to start against BC on the 2nd of March and then the Marlins on March 6th. He's in for a rude welcome to the majors Can't wait for baseball season to start! Let's see those preseason predictions, guys: NL East: Mets NL Central: Chicago NL West: Rockies NL Wild Card: Marlins (Not too far out of the realm of possibility) NL MVP: Pujols (Cabrera is a close 2nd) NL Cy Young: Carlos Zambrano NL Rookie of the Year: H
  15. Honestly at this point I'm more worried about my college finding out than I am about the RIAA finding out. I mean, I doubt the RIAA is going to go after me for downloading leaked copies of The Arcade Fire...
  16. I'm almost sure they don't care because nobody here really uses torrents to download shows and stuff... Thats why I use stuff like album base, since they can't track downloads from YSI, Sendspace, etc.
  17. My roommate just got his internet taken away for downloading. Thats why I don't use torrents anymore.
  18. A heart that's full up like a landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal You look so tired, unhappy Bring down the government They don't, they don't speak for us I'll take the quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises Silent Silent This is my final fit, my final belly-ache with... No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises, please Such a pretty house, such a pretty garden No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises No alarms and no surprises
  19. Amazing commercial. I love it. Great game for the Panthers tonight, but they lost. Ugh, this sucks. They outplayed them the whole game, but TB's goalie played incredibly.
  20. I'm going. Probably renting an RV.
  21. I'm willing to do further research on Ms. Lewis' rack if needed.
  22. I was a little unimpressed after this album failed to grow on me like Yoshimi or Bulletin did, but man this album really grabbed me tonight. "My Cosmic Autumn Rebellion" is as good as anything they've ever done, and "Mr. Ambulance Driver" is probably better than anything they've ever done....
  23. I'd like thread with every Wilco show in as lossy a format as possible. Can you please record them on a tape deck and then rerecord them through the crappy microphone on your laptop? And then convert them to MP3? Thanks.
