If you are including it with the fire episode (I believe it aired as an hour long episode originally) I argue it’s the best Office episode ever.

The episode after the Steelers/Cardinals Super Bowl. Yeah, it was great.

I’m partial to Season Two, however. So much great stuff, like the Dundies, the Christmas party and the one where Michael burns his foot on the Foreman grill.

This is how I see it: Ned liked the guy a lot pre-injury. He wasn’t worth a 40-man spot last year while rehabbing, but if can still pitch, it’s worth putting him on there instead of a AAAA outfielder or something.

For Uncle Google

and everyone else that was offended by my lack of love for Rod Stewart, I am listening to him now. And dancing. You’re welcome.

Rod Stewart blows

Er, wait, that came out wrong…

But seriously, never was a fan but I like some of his really old stuff, early 70s.

There's no need to fear, Underdog is here! / Broncos/Dodgers/Lakers fan in Niners/Raiders/Giants/Warriors country, and damned proud of it.

The last pitcher to win the deciding game of a LCS with a career losing record

Matt Garza.

Dave Stewart has won the most LCS deciding games with 4 wins, Andy Pettite and Jim Palmer each won 3 of those games.

So I'm going to buy a car tomorrow

I’ve narrowed it down to 3 different Mitsubishi Eclipses. One is a red 2003 GS, another is a silver 2005 GS (the first two are 4 cylinder engines), and the last is a black GT with a V6 engine. I’m leaning heavily towards the last one, all I thought about today was that car. It sucks because it’s all the way out in Santa Ana, but it’s going to be worth it when I finally have my own car :)

So I read through the fucking 1000+ thread

to see Eric push people over here. So Im gonna comment on the last thread here. If you dont like it, you can kiss my baby ass :)

One, I feel like Im “The Baby” here. I think we talked about this before, but Im pretty sure Im the youngest. I wanted to make myself feel special

And if me, Eric, and Phil hadnt had a conversation about my screen name yesterday or the day before, Id feel like I need to explain my name.

To say I need a Celtic in my name… Phil, you are dead to me.

Finally, since about 100 comments were about facebook, feel free to add me too. I have my last name as my mom’s madden name for college apps, but its Thomas Stewart.. the one at beverly hills high.

Your mom plays football online? What’s that have to do with college apps? =P

I think those of us in the south

should all go to a Braves game or something next season.

Or a Lookouts game!

Now wait just a goldarned minute
Byrnes has 5 years left on DBacks contract. Mets would only need to pay “reasonable” amount, since every dollar is deducted from DBacks pay.

http://twitter.com/AdamRubinESPN/status/28512066710

What? Josh Byrnes is no player. If an employer fires you but is contractually obligated to pay you your remaining contract, then that’s what happens. If someone else hires you in the meantime, good for you, you get that money too. Can there possibly be a rule that treats GM contracts like player contracts?

by G.Scott on Oct 23, 2010 10:10 AM PDT reply actions  

Unless you’re Al Davis.

I think the reason is that any GM, or anybody working on a contract is not an at will employee.

So I assume near universal support for the Rangers in the World Series here regardless of who they face right?

by Mike Dennis on Oct 23, 2010 11:01 AM PDT reply actions  

No, I don’t think even the biggest supporters of making the pitcher hit would pull for the Phillies or Giants over the Texas Rangers’ feel-good story: Mike Maddux.

im down with texas

But if I have to hear more stories about Nolan Ryans overhauling of the pitching ethos in Texas I am going to kill myself. Just because you say it 1,000 times doesnt make it true.
