Re: Driving from Fort Lauderdale to Key West.

If you are accustomed to driving in the N.E. or California, you probably expect bad traffic at any of those times. But driving thru S.Fla wil not be like going thru Boston or DC on a Friday. I visited S.Fla (drivng down to Key West) in early-mid February, and I did not encounter much traffic. It's ...

Re: Manti Teo and Notre Dame are garbage.

The person that looks the worst in all this is Manti Teo. He is either the most naive person on the planet, or he's in on it and now he looks like an idiot. Whatever the answer, most people are laughing at him. And sportswriters look bad, too. Does anybody fact-check anything any more? Teo's story w...

Signed as a pitcher, didn't know that. He pitched to one major league batter in the middle of his career.

Re: Why Does Jimmy Consider "Come Monday" a Beach Song?

I believe it's coming from when he played that song with the "Beach Band" -- a set with just Jimmy, Mac, Ralph and Robert while the rest of the band took a break.

Hearing Last Mango in Paris with Captain Tony just offstage (but on the big screen) was pretty neat. A few years ago in Tampa.

FAA has grounded them all until a battery issue is taken care of. Hope they figure out the fix and get them back in the air.

Re: 2013 Baseball Thread

On a rare occasion a catcher picks off a runner at third, but I can't recall ever seeing a pitcher actually do it. I have seen the fake to third and throw to first work.

Re: Predictions on Buffett's New album 2013.

Personally, I hope it's not "Lost Treasures". From what I understand, it's mainly stuff from the "Down To Earth" that he wrote, but did not record. I agree, there's a reason those songs didn't make the cut the first time around. They didn't get any better sitting in the closet f...

Re: How I Met Your Mother parrothead connection

Would they just hurry up and confirm that the mother is Barney's sister because everyone knows it anyways and be done with it. That show has gone on at least 3 seasons too long. That show has definitely jumped the shark. (so has that phrase :lol: ). But after yesterday it would appear that the moth...
