Re: 2013 Baseball Thread

Re-thinking my view on the 2nd wild card team thing. Up until about 15 minutes ago I hated it. I think I still do, but I see in the paper how, two & a half weeks before the end of the season, 10 of the 15 teams in the American League have a legitimate shot of making it to the world series. That...

Re: God Bless Gene Simmons (KISS)

As far as Gene Simmons, he's a perfect example of how to make it in the rock' n' roll business: 1. Find a hook or gimmick and put your twist on it (clown make-up? seriously? hmmm....) 2. Sell 'em your three chord product, soaked up in sex and drugs (which I certainly bought into as a 14-yr old! :P )...

Re: God Bless Gene Simmons (KISS)

He makes some bad points too. Basically saying that the media gave Vick a pass or that everybody thinks Aaron Hernandez is cool is pretty stupid. I don't hate Tebow but I think he's a terrible NFL qb. If anything, his views are the only reason he's relevant, not his play. I think he should try the ...

Re: Once Again a So Cal Shutout

Re: Buffett Confirmed for MGM in Vegas 10/19 and 10/26

I am planning on seeing Jimmy for the first time ever in Vegas. After two battles with breast cancer the past 5 years and turning 40 this coming September, I am doing it! Question: What are ticket prices like? I am not so worried about sitting close. I just want to get in the door and have a seat. ...
