I played from beta to Wrath of the Lich King. Had to get out at that point. When the Kung Fu Panda expansion came out, I was done. It was a fantastic game, but the amount of playing time and commitment it takes is off the charts. I was stuck on a crappy server, if Blizzard would have allowed me to move servers for fee I might have kept playing.

I thought it was interesting that as they made the announcements the stock price for Apple started rising. Then when they said it will only work with the iPhone and won't be out till next year the stock price fell. I think investors felt that they were limiting the scope of the product, and weren't happy it wouldn't be out for Christmas. Anyone thinking they will get this? I just have no interest in a smartwatch.

I liked this one better "Season isn't done but this is not a playoff team, not even close to it"

You just forgot to sell high in the mid 90's. Speaking of which, I think your pog collection is probably a little down in value, too.

Hey Stradling, do you still have like 50 of his rookie cards?

What if people get confused and vote for Gwen Stefani?

I usually don't get involved in threads about is Sosh a good manager. In any sport, it takes me a long time to criticize a manager or coach, I just in general think coaches/managers get too much credit for wins, and too much blame for losses. But whenever I talk about the issue, I say the number one issue in whether a baseball manager is perceived as good or not is his bullpen performance.

There are some horrible people in this world. Glad they get caught sometimes.

I did Harp a while back. There was really no downside to it. I wasn't asked for any upfront money. I was disappointed I couldn't fold a higher interest rate second into it, which in my case would have helped me a lot more. The other downside for me was when I did it interest rates were just above 5%. So I couldn't do it again when they fell down to the 4% range. (They only allow one HARP refi, period. It did save me some money overall though. On a personal note, I finally got the LTV I needed so I was able to recently refi into a good rate and get rid of the second. I went through American Capital in Aliso Viejo and was treated very well, not like a number and I have no problem recommending them.

I agree Nate. I was trying to figure that part out, too.

A $4M salary and a .3 WAR. Not much of a surprise Chicago was done with him.

I like this comment from that link: "His best pitch is probably a curveball. After all, no one can Bend it like Beckham"

Can he pitch?

Did anyone else think that Markakis at bat was going to be the last at bat of the night? Good job Rasmus with an ump f&$%ing squeezing you!

Nevermind, pretty hard to predict that outcome! haha

Predictions? 3 or 4 pitch strike out?

Here comes a lefty to face Hamilton

That doesn't help.

NICE! Josh can hit home runs!

Damn, awful

I wasn't texting with you guys about the game so I had to find a substitute. haha

Nice, Baltimore making mistakes.

I love the bat control. Why can a rookie go oppo like a pro, but veterans don't even try to adjust their approach to a shift?

Nice oppo shot!

Howie drilled that one.
