You have the rest of your life to live alone if you want to. You just gotta find decent roommates.

Firefox 3.5 is out. Not only is it faster, but the new privacy mode hides teh pr0n from the wife (or roommates if you're into bizarre ish)...

Is there a more annoying thing in the world than old people yukking it up about Twitter and tweets

I had someone tell me that around 400-800 more people were willing to buy standing room tickets for the May 8-10 home series (vs. Braves) than the season opener and ring ceremony games because of the weather :!:

He also is maintaining that complementary tickets given to fans don't count towards attendance, but comp tickets given to family, retired players, scouts, etc. do count towards attendance. :?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. He's obviously reached the point where any response from me is going to invoke an even more bizarre thought stream.

bizarre thought stream? ask him if he posts under the name 'crashburnalley' on any phillies related message boards.

What we are witnessing today, boys and girls, is the result of an intellectual man child riding a one trick pony while trying to play a card game with a half deck and rules that aren't really rules.

It actually is a discussion from another Phillies message board. 8-)

(I'd prefer not to mention the board or poster to maintain decorum/possibly avoid violating a TOS.)

The saddest part is that I was sort of defending the Mets in my original post of the discussion, which disgusted me.

It's a shame I misspelled starting in my post that has been quoted in kruker's sig

I gotcha

Can someone tell CSN that every random piece of news that we've known for hours isn't an "ALERT"?

by **jerseyhoya** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 22:44:21

The thought process on number 85. Hmm, 85 Bears? No stupid. Stephen Baker the touchdown maker? No they'd hate that. Who on the Eagles wears 85? No one. Dempsey and Burrell, maybe. Oh shit, Tyree wears 85.

So BigEd, any suggestions?

by **BigEd76** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 23:03:05

Vic+Burrell works, but you forgot Ocho Cinco?

by **jerseyhoya** » Tue Jun 30, 2009 23:06:22

Haha, that's pretty bad.

I usually just look at the SI best player by jersey number thing, and if it's no one I care about go to Phillies, Eagles or Giants.

Screw Ochocinco though. He's a douche. Plus I think Burrell giving the finger sums up tonight's game well.

I like the word render. It reminds me of the song Margaritaville.

by **Barry Jive** » Wed Jul 01, 2009 00:01:31

that would make me hate the word render

by **jerseyhoya** » Wed Jul 01, 2009 00:03:44

I like the idea of something rendering a frozen concoction that helps you hang on. Even if I don't like that song much. Or margaritas.

In tangentially related news, I cannot wait to be down the shore in 48 hours.

where do you work

The Sehorn interception is probably tied with Roy hitting the three against UConn two years ago as the second most absurdly awesome play I've seen in person. Jimmy's double play to clinch the division a not so distant fourth. I really hope I someday surpass the Laettner shot. Peaking at seven is rough. I should have gone to our Super Bowl two years ago.
