The Title says it all "Rollins Dreaming", He definately dreaming if he thinks the Phillies are going to the World Series. What really is the tip-off is he also thinks the Yankees will be there too hahahahaha, yea right, that's a good one!!! Last I checked the cheaters were in third place in their division and didn't even start winning games until they got their precious little A-rod (juicer) back and we all know....One man does not make a team. Well Good Luck with that! Haha
Totally agree, I will mention that I'm a HUGE METS FAN of 30+ years and when he go hit and reacted by saying that hurt, I started laughing b/c you could see he was joking around. BTW, no he did not stand at the plate staring Santana down, the staring didn't occur until he was more than half way to first and Santana was barking at him to get to first base. Kevin IMO, was probably staring waiting for him to start smiling and joining in on the ribbing/joke but Johan never did. Must agree I was quite surprised that Johan took it to that level and knocked my opinion of him down a bit. I'm all for business but when a player is just trying to have fun with ya, don't go making them look like an idiot over a joke b/c Santana was the one looking like the idiot for not understanding the situation. It was and should of been NO BIG DEAL.
Do People know "Why" it's a small portion of cardholders being affected? It's because we are the ones that have excellent credit, pay our bills on time, pay more than the minimums on our accounts and also b/c we shop for our cards wisely. That is why I selected BOA for a 6.9% FIXED Rate for LIFE because that is the contract! The only way that was EVER suppose to change was due to some exception created by ME such as high bal on too many other cards, late pay etc.... but NOW they have just added a new line which the jist of it is, or some unforseen economic crises mumbo jumbo. Well I've got news for you BOA that "Line" wasn't present on my intial contract and if it does go up to the proposed variable (which means they can do whatever the He*L they want with the rate) rate of 13.99% you can bet your going to have some fighting on your hands and Yes, I did keep my original application papers. They get money from the Gov not once but TWICE and then turn around and screw the one with good credit!!! They have got to be out of their greedy ass minds. Yes anyone with a 10% rate will not be affected with this mailing because your already in a varible rate and they don't necessarily have to tell you ANYTHING about an increase (it's in the print) and you can bet that by August your once 10% will be at least 16.99%!!! You can take that to the bank!
I agree, this transition has been communicated for the past 6 frigging years and the date for change has been pushed back at least 3 times!!!! It's not the public holding this up as they want you to believe, it's the national networks and smaller affiliates that don't want to spend the money to JUMP ON BOARD!!! It's time to pony up, you have been given plenty of time and warning. Pushig it back 4 months will do nothing but keep their money in their pockets a little longer so they can cry again in June that "were not ready", what a joke! Flip the switch on Feb 17th and see how fast the so called "uninformed" become informed and have a picture on their TV before the prime time hours!
Finally found a link for you that I can reply to... As I recall your NE so-called fans were doing the same damn thing when the Fins trounced them at home! In fact the annoucers even commented on the fact of how loud the Miami fans were because why?........That's all that was left filling the seats. As far as our song, perhaps it needs updating but at least it does'nt date back to the Revoulutionary Times with some old men shooting their muskets in the air, now that's lame. Prettier you say? Well I've been to Foxboro on many occasions and if you call looking at people with horse teeth prettier than I guess I don't know the meaning of the word. Speaking about words it's park the car not paaaarrk the caaar!
Well David obviously you don't spend as much time looking at the schedule as you do crying about the Patsies or is it Pansies not making it to the playoffs. We played many of the same teams and even beaten some of the ones the other division rivals lost to. Don't worry though your Bumass looking coach will find another way to cheat his way back to the top again, I'm sure of it. Perhaps with all the money Kraft's been throwing around and all the network (kissass) kickbacks they've been receiving they'll be able to get their tapes delivered from military spy satellites this time around. Trust me, it's very refreshing to have new blood in the playoff's and the Dolphins deserve it and have "Earned It" people ge sick and tired of seeing the "Yankees" of football year after year, buying prospects up so they can be on top again. Just where do all these numbers go when it's time for the cap hit anyways? Whats worse is having to listen to all their whinyass fans crying about how it should of been them, how can this be, there must be a mistake, check the tapes there had to be a penalty there somewhere..... Give us a break and go away for another year. Oh by the way 1972 Dolphins are STILL the ONLY team with an UNDEFEATED SEASON!!!! GO DOLPHINS!!!!!
Must agree totally, DTV advertises like this all the time, they should not be counting the PPV channels as an addition it's not not like you can watch them day in and day out. You have to pay for those channels in addition to your normal cost and also more than a SD broadcast of the same PPV. As for counting RSN's same holds true, shouldn't be counted because once a game starts unless you live in the demographic area it's blocked so how can you call that an addition! It's more and more smoke and mirrors advertising on DTV's part they perfected that terminology since back in 94' when they came on the scene.
Wow, that would put it at about $16,000.00 MSRP which is still astronomically high and not even in the ballpark when figuring the rumored figure of the 55XBR8 Top of the line series RGB LED triluminous at about $6500.00. If it's more than $8,000.00 MSRP then Sony has waisted it's time and money on the XBR7 series altogether. Remembering back to that canned 70XBR5 series TV that MSRP was around $5,500.00, this version has a few added perks which should add some to it's MSRP but I don't think it should add up to $2,500.00 more so I'm hoping it comes in at around $6,999.00 and no more.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
