lol.. Ya'll don't fight while watching sports together, do ya? Seems to me that you and him differ a lot when it comes to sports. Not fighting like yelling at each other or anything...but my mom really doesn't like watching yanks-sox games with us 'cause she knows that one of us is gonna be pissed by the end, lol. As far as differing alot, yeah we grew up rooting for different teams because of where we were, but he's actually taught me most of what I know about sports. My mom grew up without any guys in her house so you can guess how much they were into that stuff . Me & my brother have gotten her hooked on the Sox now though . Oh yes, I did..here: What's his name? I could probably recognize him.. He's Hideki Okajima, a.k.a. the awesome Japanese pitcher who isn't Daisuke Matsuzaka. haha...I'm not sure I was even trying to rub it in. But yes, it was fun . Quiz question: How long had it been since the Sox last won one? I don't think you'll need your light-saber over here... Um, what? lol Btw, I dunno if you're getting any of the U.S. Open but I think Rafa is supposed to play tomorrow somewhere between 6-10 pm your time, if you were curious.

If you are a kicker, and you've already won three world championships and are probably in the hall of fame already, and you're current team offers you $1 Million, and then the Colts offer you $2.7 Million, which are you going to take?
I would have done the same thing.

My mom grew up without any guys in her house so you can guess how much they were into that stuff . Me & my brother have gotten her hooked on the Sox now though . I don't let my Dad see that I'm upset when "his" team beats "mine", but if it's his team he gets sooo mad.. Like the Patriot-Charger game? Goodness, I don't even want to remember that one... It was horrible. He completly ruined the game for me. Oh yes, I did..here: He's Hideki Okajima, a.k.a. the awesome Japanese pitcher who isn't Daisuke Matsuzaka. Yep, I know the name.. haha...I'm not sure I was even trying to rub it in. But yes, it was fun . Quiz question: How long had it been since the Sox last won one? 2004. I don't think you'll need your light-saber over here... I sadi something abot liking the Falcons jersey colors on our Panthers board and some guy brandished a light-sabre at me. Robert took care of him though. Btw, I dunno if you're getting any of the U.S. Open but I think Rafa is supposed to play tomorrow somewhere between 6-10 pm your time, if you were curious. Yes I am. I'm going to a friend's house here in a minute and staying for dinner, but hopefully I'm be back in time for Rafa's match.

Yeah, we wouldn't want to miss Rafa's match...
Beth, Shannon said 'had,' not 'has,' in her trivia question....otherwise, that was a creative answer.

Yeah, we wouldn't want to miss Rafa's match... Yeah yeah, rub in how dorky we are why don't you . Thanks for clarifying... Shannon, I know the answer but I'll let Beth answer it. Good, 'cause she's the one I was asking... The light-saber thing is referring to an incident on the Panthers board. That much I guessed.. I sadi something abot liking the Falcons jersey colors on our Panthers board and some guy brandished a light-sabre at me. Robert took care of him though. Ah, I see, lol. *blows off smoking gun from taking care of stupid troll on Panthers board who brandished a lightsaber at my Beth* Oh so she's your Beth now? Well I'm sharing.

HAHA. Well, I only meant figuratively.
Any one get the Han Solo reference with a gun instead of a light saber?

Before I present my latest caption, I will remind everyone that this is a general sports thread, so I'm allowed to throw in some tennis on occasion. The truth is out: Today it has been proven that Rafael Nadal can in fact win in his sleep. "ZZzzzzZZzz"

Yeah, we wouldn't want to miss Rafa's match... Yeah yeah, rub in how dorky we are why don't you . I didn't get to see any of it.. I got home just after 8:00 and Josh said that Tennis ended at 8:00 (even thought it wasn't supposed to end until 11:00. ) I did see some high-lights of it later, though. Josh didn't see the match either (he was watching something else) so I don't even know if the match was shown. Beth, Shannon said 'had,' not 'has,' in her trivia question....otherwise, that was a creative answer. Oh.. No, I don't remember when the last time was that they won it. Was is 2002? *blows off smoking gun from taking care of stupid troll on Panthers board who brandished a lightsaber at my Beth* Oh so she's your Beth now? Well I'm sharing. He only wishes.. erm, no, because I've never technically seen any Star Wars movies. Or lord of the rings movies...or pirates of the carribean movies...hooray for social outcasts, etc. Haha.. Before I present my latest caption, I will remind everyone that this is a general sports thread, so I'm allowed to throw in some tennis on occasion. You're allwed to post anything in a thread I start.. And anyway, yes, we can talk about Tennis in here. And guys, we won't post any shirt-less pics if you don't post any pictures like the others you've posted before, ok? (I don't post shirt-less pics anyway, but I know Shannon won't if ya'll won't.)[/color][/quote] Beth, your father sounds like me (LOL)
I'm sorry, Chris, I can't help but laugh at that statement.... I'm sure he only meant sports wise.. lol

lol...yeah..there was that whole "Curse" thing that you probably heard of with all that history stuff you saw. Yankee fans would chant "1918" just to tick people off. Until of course we helped them pull off the greatest choke in baseball history ;D. By the way I believe 2002 was the Angels.
