Didn't you guys win the Little League World Series like, five years ago? I only remember this because it was made out to be the Little League version of the Miracle on Ice.

Baseball > Hockey > Soccer > pro football > College Football > anything else

No...

Then again, you have the Knicks, Nets, Rutgers, and St. John's, so basketball probably wouldn't be high on your list.

And while we're talking about games, GTA: San Andreas and NCAA '06 are out for XBox, so I should probably get around to getting those soon.

And the end if pretty cool, but i think the super grav gun is abit dumb.

The ragdoll physics in this game are the best i have ever seen though, and it is probably my faverouite game ever.

Ray: MA is pretty fun. We went spear fishing today but didn't catch anything.

Whaaaat? Why do you hate it? I've only played it a few times, but I liked it a lot.

And I far prefer Vice City to III.

Chris: I would say "That's too bad", but then again fishing isn't all about actually catching fish.

You crazy Brits. Can't you let us Americans call our chips whatever we want?

Also, "Toy Soldiers" sucks. C'mon.

They probably changed Smiths to Lays here because they wanted to be cool like the Americans.

I think they are both incredible musicians. A lot of people think grunge is trash, but AIC definantly had talent. IMO of course.

[GaggingOrder]

Oh. Names for the show. ****. I haven't been on for 3 days, so I don't know what's going on.

[Bazarov]

Yeah, I agree with ArrestThisMan. Probably because AIC is my favorite grunge band. Offtopic, this is the second time, some newb makes a thread about the band I was going to do a report on here. It's just newbs, and none of them knew that Dimebag is dead, they're all saying man, I wish they'd tour again, when they do I hope they come to my town.

EDIT-I've cooled down a little and think that maybe they're just being idiots and being sarcastic. I really hope so.

Has anyone heard Jerry's band Cantrell? I heard one song a few months ago, I kind of liked it, but I don't remember the name or anything.

[Illmatic]

I haven't, but I kinda liked his most recent solo album. I wish I remembered where it was

[Stoic]

Dirt is a ****ing brilliant album. I actually consider AIC. Some kind of twisted modern doom metal.

To catch up:

I like fishing, it's good fun. Especially with a beer in your hand.

I reckon Joe should be something like Bobby DeLange; it sounds fairly pommy.

My favourite of the GTAs was Vice City, simply because of the awesome soundtrack. The GTA: San Andreas soundtrack is pretty **** awesome as well, but doesn't have VCPR. :p

However, the best GTA for mass slaughter was Liberty City. Oh, the fun times I had with all weapons, stealing tanks, killing tanks, stealing more tanks. :D

[Lord Abortion]

yeah, the tank cheat was hours of fun, especially if you got about 10 and littered them all over

[Riva]

Tank cheat? I always get up to 6 wanted stars through various methods, then just get into a walled area (like the cathedral on the middle island), and let fly with grenades/molotovs. Then you jump the wall, and steal the tank.

You can kill tanks by blasting them with the flamethrower.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Yo thread. I just got back from cd shopping, the dentist and eating chinese.

Yes, I know that you are going to call this review lame. But give it a shot. Ray might like "Beantown," since he will likely understand all the Bostonian references throughout the song.

I have the album uploaded on a server, so let me know if you want to hear it :-\

[Illmatic]

OMG, that is the cheesiest song ever (regarding "Beantown") :lol:

"Yo, I rep the Bean, y'all see the way it be / Home of Source magazine, the Pats and Edo. G" and ending with "My aim is dangerous, like the Larry Bird set shot / It's clear now, you livin' in fear now / Big up Boston, the champ is here now."

:lol:

Anyone see Bobby Abreu at the Home Run Derby? 24 home runs! Holy cow...the previous record for most homers in a round was Miggy Tejada with 15.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Hey Jom, this may interest you since I know you like Catch 33. My friend just told me this, but Tomas Haake didn't actaully drum on the album. They recorded samples of his drums, and did all of the recording through a drum machine. They did this for two reasons. One, to make it sound more machine-like and two, due to time constraints. You may have already known this, but I found it to be quite interesting.

[Illmatic]

My favourite of the GTAs was Vice City, simply because of the awesome soundtrack.

Wildstyle and VCPR are just plain awesome. Espantoso is great, too. There were some good songs on VRock, the new wave stations were good cheesy fun, Emotion was worth listening to because Fernando was hilarious, and even KChat had its moments.

Speaking of bikes, I am thinking about renting one for a day with my sister just to ride around the island. That would be sweet.

I remember when I was in Canada with my family...We spent a day riding bikes around Stanley Park, only I was on a chinsey aluminum scooter. First we rented bikes(and a scooter) and we rode down this hill to the park. On the way down, I found the beauty of the brake on the scooter. If I pressed hard enough on the break, I could do a powerslide, so the entire way down to the lake, I was riding the brake. :D This was fun until I actaully had to start pushing. While I was powersliding with the brake, the wheel was getting worn, so after 5 minutes, the rear wheel basically turned into an octogon. It was a bumpy couple of hours. This, coupled with the fact that I had eaten 2 scones before we left the hotel did not lead to a very favorable outcome. About 45 minutes into the bike ride, I started feeling queasy, and then, I ran over to the lake, and hurled. Scones with jam do not equal a good looking pile of barf. :-/

[Steerpike]

Hey there.
American. I like the British one better, but, it's not on often. Chip is the extra tonight. Don't like him too much, I like Greg.

Agreed. Chip is okay, but my favorite one of the American version was when Josie was a guest. They did the foreign film dub in Klingon. During one sketch, she said this one phrase that must have been pretty filthy because the entire thing was bleeped out. She couldn't understand why everyone was laughing so hard and looking so shocked until Ryan came up and explained to her you couldn't say that on American TV.

She just had a "WTF?" look on her face.

[Riva]

:lol: Research much?

I'll have you know that there isn't much better to do in two years of University Biology than sit around and discuss sexual processes with your tutor. :p

[Steerpike]

Alcohol lowers your sex drive, decreases the size of your manhood when erect, and makes your semen taste bad.

Also increases the chance of vomiting on your partner, which would really kill the mood.

Greg did this really funny anti-Bush skit that I saw on the Rock Against Bush DVD. It was great.

I've been watching a lot of Comedy Central lately, and I must say that Mitch Hedberg has topped everyone I've seen so far.

I agree, I've seen quite a few Comedy Central Presents in the last couple days.

[Steerpike]

:lol: I haven't even heard of it.

You might like it. Very strange comedy movie about loser superheroes in a near-future reality. One of Ben Stiller's good movies. You have to be inclined to geekiness to really appreciate it though.

Bill Macy plays The Shoveler, a superhero who uses a shovel like a martial arts weapon. Hank Azaria is The Blue Rajah, "an effete British superhero" who is a crack marksman with thrown weapons, but he only uses silverware (never knives) and specializes in forks.

Geoffrey Rush is the German villain, Casanova Frankenstein.

That's the tip of the iceberg

Ugh, Mystery Men, I remember that movie now. Ben Stiller, Janene Garofolo, Kel, and Pee Wee Herman...not exactly an All-Star Cast. That was another movie that was fairly unfunny.

As I said, my favorite from the try-out scene is still The Waffler.

"State your name and superpower."

"I... am The Waffler. And with my Griddle of Justice, I bash the enemy in the head, or I burn them like so." (places griddle to his own face) "Yeearrr!"

Eh, I big to differ there.

I guess I'm just not that picky. :p

I was just thinking about watching Clerks tonight.

I saw Fantastic 4, it was amazingly mediocre. It did a lot to look impressive, but ultimately accomplished very little. They definitely need a sequel for this movie to have served any real purpose. And the acting for the most part was subpar. They made up for Jessica Alba's nearly complete lack of dialogue ability by putting her either in a tight spandex suit or having her strip off her clothes in order to turn completely invisible. Which, I'll admit, did bump the movie up a few notches.

[Illmatic]

One good movie that will come out this summer: The 40-Year-Old Virgin, starring Steve Carrell and Paul "Brian Fantana" Rudd. Steve Carrell makes it worth seeing.

Good gawd, how 'bout Pudge?

To be honest, I'm getting sick of the superhero movies. It's becoming a trend; every superhero is having a movie made out of them. I swear I'm going to see a Rocket Robinhood movie soon.

I may go see fantasic four. That is if my friends decide to go see it.

[Lunch]

Yea, because Marvel is doing their movie-making thing right now. Honestly, their only great production was X-Men 2. Spiderman 1 and 2 are decent and good respectively, and the other one are usually crap. Daredevil, The Hulk, Punisher, Electra, and pretty much Fantastic 4 were garbage.

The first two Blade movies were very good, but they finished their run before the Marvel films really starting rolling out every couple months. But they got greedy with the third one anyway.

Yeah, I have always hates Stuart Scott ever since he was like "Stop, at the hot spot, set up for the wide open shot" sung to the tune of Ruff Ryders Anthem by DMX. And the whole Boo-Ya thing is lame, so is the lazy eye.

And he just hosts all the corny game shows like Teammates, Dream Job, and Stump the Schwab.

Late, but I'm pretty sure Dane Cook played "The Waffler" in Mystery Men.

[MBS]

Well, practice today was fun. 7 hours straight of Blues based classic rock jams:cool:.

I found out, I'm quite decent at drums if you give me a while with them. We played a song where me (rythmn guitarist) got on drums, the lead got on rythmn, my drummer played lead, and some kid we invited over to jam with us played bass.

And it sounded pretty damn good.

We played Knockin' on Heaven's Door.

Use all tapping.

Your right hand or what ever hand you use for fretting has to hit the strings like a real hard hammer on to make it work.

Also helps if you pickups are high output to make the sound come in louder.

You mean like two-hand tapping? Ah crap. I suck enough at regular tapping as it is...

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Can someone give me some easy tapping songs? I'm a tapping n00b. :-/

[Steerpike]

The only other song I have the tab for with tapping is Strange Wings by Savatage, and that's one bar with a 16th note triplets arpeggio.

Intro to "One" by Metallica. Very easy.

[RiceMonster]

The tapping part in Eruption is how I learned to tap. it's honestly not very hard.

[MBS]

What's the difference between tapping and two hand tapping?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Ok, I'll look for powertabs of both One and Eruption, since I am familiar with them.

Alex- Is it a powertab?

[magicbus]

The tapping part in Eruption is how I learned to tap. it's honestly not very hard.

I agree, I forgot to mention that.


Tapping is usually just using the fret hand fingers, and only one finger on the hand. I think two hand tapping goes into the "multiple fingers on both hands/multiple string" area.

[Steerpike]

It's a GuitarPro tab. No one ever really explained to me what the difference between a regular tab and a powertab was, and I just stopped caring after a while.

By the way, I'm open to suggestions other than Metallica, because I really have no urge to learn anything from their catalog.

[GaggingOrder]

Tapping is unbelieveably easy. I can't see how anyone could find it hard.

The very end to the tapping in Eruption is a little tricky, because Eddie starts switching fingers pretty fast then stops.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

powertab is to guitar pro as windows is to mac I think...Except without the inferiority. :p

[Steerpike]

Tapping is unbelieveably easy. I can't see how anyone could find it hard.

I play right-handed, but am 90% left-handed. To give you an idea of what that means, I cannot make my third and fourth fingers of my right hand move independently without a supreme effort of will.

[Jom]

Seriously, how the hell did you guys come up with neoli so fast? It took me awhile to think of a "famous" MXer back in the day, and after two hints, you guys nailed it? Riva and I had no clue how to side-step that :(

Adios and good night.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

You mean like two-hand tapping? Ah crap. I suck enough at regular tapping as it is...


In all reality, it is easier then it looks.

The hardest thing about the song is making it all come together in the right time and tempo and such.

Try the intro out really slow, one finger at a time and see how easy it is in all reality.

Try this :

I label fingers as 1 2 3 4 : 1 - index 2 - middle 3 - ring 4 pinky

Take finger number one on the fretting hand an do a hard hammer on on the 7th fret on the E string, then take your third finger and do a hard hammer on the 9th fret on the A string.

Then your picking hand use finger number two to tap the first note on the 12th fret on the B string then use your number one finger to tap the other note on the 12th fret on the D string.

Then for the next bar for your fretting hand, use finger number 1 for the 10th fret on A string, and your second finger for the D string hammer-on on the 11th fret.
Then use finger number two and number one in the same way as you did on the 14th fret.

Take it slow, and you will see it is easier then it looks.

[Lord Abortion]

Yo thread. I just got back from cd shopping, the dentist and eating chinese.

I got Dredg- Catch Without Arms and Mogwai- Come on Die Young. I just started listening to CWA, and so far it's great. :shrug: Oh, and my swelling is almost gone. :cool:
I love mogwai...
you got rock action?

[Steerpike]

Take it slow, and you will see it is easier then it looks.

As I said, the problem mostly stems from the fact that I'm so dominantly left-handed. I have very little fine manual dexterity in my right hand.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Then why aren't you playing a left handed guitar if that is the case?

[NJMetalMeister]

Didn't you guys win the Little League World Series like, five years ago? I only remember this because it was made out to be the Little League version of the Miracle on Ice.


Yep, but it wasnt my area of toms river or school, i live in the area that goes to the north toms river schools, they were from toms river east.


No...

Then again, you have the Knicks, Nets, Rutgers, and St. John's, so basketball probably wouldn't be high on your list.


And dont forget the fact that basketball is such a boring sport to watch.

Its Walkers, thats the way its meant to be. You and your foreign names... Why can't they just keep it classic?

Look here you sill brit, its Lay's potato chips, not Walkers potato crisps, and they are called Lays everywhere else (except germany, it is Walkers here as well) because they are owned by the FritoLay company.

Hey there.
American. I like the British one better, but, it's not on often. Chip is the extra tonight. Don't like him too much, I like Greg.


The american one is terrible in comparison to the british one, i get barely any laughs out of it. First of all Wayne Brady is not funny, nor is anyone else on the show who was not on the british version. Then they make it worse by overcomplicating everything in the american one. Like when doing the dating show instead of doing something simple yet funny like lets say an Angry Neighbor, they make it so over the top that its not funny like something ridiculous like Ryan is in love with colins left ear hair and wants to marry his right shoe, while doing the hokey pokey and making pies, or whatever.

On top of that Drew Carey is not that funny on the show, whereas Clive Anderson was brilliant.

That being said i really do wish british humor was more popular in the US.

Has anyone seen Fantastic 4 yet? If so how did you like it, I am thinking about going to see it some time soon.

That movie better be good because fantastic 4 is my all time favorite comic book. If it is bad, someone is getting decapitated.

[Steerpike]

Then why aren't you playing a left handed guitar if that is the case?

Because it's much, much easier to get my right hand to hold a guitar pick than properly fret the strings. Believe me, I've tried.

Also I'm too damn poor to afford paying extra for a left-hand guitar.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'm left-handed, but the fingers on my right hand are more co-ordinated than the ones on my left.

[Stoic]

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The only problem I had was finding a left-handed guitar that I liked. When I bought mine, they had a sale on some nice ESPs, but it turns out ESP don't make left-handed guitars at all :rolleyes:

I ended up with a BC Rich Platnium Warlock, which ended up being better than the ESP I wanted :D

[Six Foot Revolver]

While wondering the street of my little town checking out the market stalls on today I came across a stall which I have never seen in my three years of living in the village. A CD stall. I instantly went to browse and it was unfortunately full of music for older people such as Cliff Richard. All hope was not lost though, maybe I could find some Pink Floyd or Cream. Unfortunately not. However, I did happen to come across a CD by a band that some people on MX are quite big fans of. So I pulled a crisp ten pound note out of my pocket and bought the CD. I then went home and placed it in my CD player. The CD then started to play and it was good. THe CD was L.A. Woman by The Doors.

No, it was definitely in this thread, and it was a blanket statement, too. Maybe it just wasn't you.


It was possibly the greatest advert ever made. *Irn Bru ad description*

Yeah, that was a great advert. My vote for favourite still goes to that Guinness one, from about ten years ago now, with Louis Armstrong.


Uh oh, Bartender deleted a post...

No, I didn't. I wasn't even online at the time, and why would I delete a random, perfectly good, post? :-/


hahahaha that's a great quote, my favorite from the second series is when hes describing the entire bond film.

My favourite was always just simply his "back of the net", replete with kicking motion. It gained a bit of a cult following from myself and a certain friend. It was usually just a great show in general, though.


I didn't like Red Dead Revolver.

Why not? I thought it was great, personally.

yes, i know, you just use the word Crisps, but the bags here say Potato Crisps on them, dunno if its like that in the good ole UK or not, as ive never been there.

What I do find funny is that in the US if you say crisps, you mean something totally different than the generic potato chip. Like if you go to the snack aisle in a supermarket you will find Chips (as in what we americans call chips, not french fries) and Crisps right next to each other. The difference is that the crisps are processed a lot more, thinner, and generally healthier for you. So, big difference there.

Golf

Hey, golf is damn fun to play.

And while we're talking about hockey, Boston actually used to be a hockey town back in the days of Bobby Orr and the Big Bad Bruins. Chicago, however, has been a football town for ages. Basketball has been pretty big too, not just the Bulls either, but the playgrounds in Chicago are a basketball hotbed, right up there with New York. Basketball being, of course, the best game in the world :)

Also, "Levon" sounds like such a black name :lol:

[RiceMonster]

Haha. There's actually a semi-large audience of Hockey watchers here in North Carolina, I remember the "Carolina Hurricane" craze a few years back, when we were doing good in the NHL.
I'm guessing that was the year they knocked The Leafs out of the playoffs. :upset:

[Arucard]

Not entirely sure which one yet, i just pray that the thread stays open until tonight. As i have gained alot of posts on this account too, i think im going to get a merge. I don't intend to get banned again very soon.

I'd respond to this, but I think I just had an aneurysm.

Its the fact that the games score is so high. When scoring is that often in a game, the points are essentially meaningless. Take soccer for instance, if a team wins 5-0, that is a landslide victory, but if a basketball team wins by only 5 points its a very close game. You dont get the same excitement you would from a team scoring in basketball that you would in just about any other sport. It just goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. So boring.

Whilst we are at it, ban Ray too. For being black.

WHO AM I??!1?!

Me? :lol:

Pffffft.


Who watches hockey? That's right, no one but them canadians.

and me, and the swedish. Swedish hockey is insane by the way, i was there during the finals between stockholm and gothenburg, and we saw half the games in pubs in stockholm then half in pubs in gothenburg, insanity.

And yes, golf is fun to play, but it is extremely boring to watch, but i would think most people would not argue that.

In defense of golf : Happy Gilmour.

Ooops at spelling it gold.

I think you're watching for the wrong reasons. The best part about basketball is that no sport combines the necessity of team play with individual brilliance as well as it does.

Caddyshack is so much better.

I disagree, once again i will use soccer as an example for my argument

I agree, one of the funniest movies ever made

[ATM]

Sounds like a pretty cool concept but what is the owner's profit? Have you got anything interesting from there in the past?

Yea man. Today I got 3 Robin Trower albums, 2 Rush albums, and a Neil Young tape. Also Independence Day :lol:

[RiceMonster]

I agree with soccer, it is actually a very interesting sport to watch.

[Endless Obsession]

Soccer is also the simplest sport ever pretty much. Run around trying to kick a ball into the net, cant go offsides, cant use your hands, cant interfere with the goalie, and cant try to hurt another player.

After you watch it for 30 minutes and 1 or 2 goals are scored and its basically just a bunch of guys running back and forth on a huge field, it gest boring so easily.

I guess you're just unsalvagable.

No sport has as much flair or style as basketball. And yet, you can still appreciate team play as well.

Ease up on him, Chris. He's a New Yorker. You can't expect him to be THAT smart.

Haven't we had an argument about soccer before, trying to convince Ray that it wasn't the easiest thing in the world?

And Chicago used to be somewhat of a Hockey town, didn't it? I mean, a long time ago when the Blackhawks were good.

That is where i go back to the original argument against basketball. While soccer games can be boring (but then again in any sport a game can be just total crap and thusly boring, no sport is exempt from that in my opinion), the sheer excitment found in a high quality soccer game is far superior to that of most other sports. With the low point values, in a close game, especially between two rivals (and here in germany there are quite a few, dont forget the british primier league either, and such), if a goal is scored, even if its on a penalty, its beyond exciting. How much excitment do you really get from seeing someone sink a free throw in basketball?

Next time you happen to notice one of the American networks playing an Arsenal vs. Manchester United soccer match (which at least in new jersey they show reruns of these fairly often), just watch it, and pick a side before the game starts to stand behind for the entire game, and you will see.

It was just like when i watched the England vs. US game in may (i think it was may, the last couple months just wizzed by me and blurred together), we watched it with a bunch of people from the UK and Ireland, and it was sheer insanity, and also a great match, i was very impressed with the way the US played.

This is also the reason I will probably be returning to germany for the world cup next year.

EDIT: saw this after i posted

I sure as hell am not from NY, i am from New Jersey, and don't you forget it.

^ I am trying to go to Germany for the World Cup, too. Even if I only make it to one game or something, watching the games in pubs is soooo fun. Especially when your country is doing good.

[Cain]

I resent that. :mad:

New Yorkers just like baseball, pretty much. The biggest names in the sports' history are synonymous with the location.

i can see that this thread does just fine without me. i'm not needed anymore. I'll just go die now, thank you

If you do go, go to frankfurt, because then i can give you this information, which you should write down and save for a year.

first off, the frankfurt stadium is real nice, ive seen the Frankfurt Eintracht play there before, great stuff, and the stadium will be used in the world cup.

Secondly these are the pubs you need to go to to watch the games:

1) if a team playing is in anyway related to the UK or Ireland, go to MacGowan's pub to watch it, it is off the central area called the Zeil, if you go to the subway station named Konstabler Wache, you will see a sign on a street post that says "irish pub" and an arrow pointing, that is where you need to go. The one guy who works there, Patty, is insane, and they serve food there which also happens to be pretty good.

2) If a team playing is Australia, go to an irish pub in the area of Frankfurt called Sachsenhausen called "The Anglo Irish". Lot of aussies there, makes a real nice atmosphere.

3) if a germany game is on, just go right to the Zeil, they will have a huge screen set up outdoors, and beer stands all over the place. German soccer fans are amazing, so much fun being surrounded by them when a local team is playing. The celebration when the Frankfurt Eintracht got upgraded back into the Bundes Liga (the german equivalent of a premier league), it was the most amazing experience of my whole year in frankfurt.

If any other team is playing, go where you desire.

Hope to see you there next summer!

Eh, Cleveland, New York, they're one in the same.

See, you can't compare basketball and soccer...basketball is about sustained brilliance. You don't cheer one play (unless it's a buzzer-beater, obviously), you watch everything going on. Basketball is first and foremost a team sport, but in no other sport can one individual stand out within that context...I dunno, it's hard to explain why I love it so much.

Awesome, thanks for the info. I was born in Germany so I hope some of my german comes back to me when I go :)

To Jom: You are probably right :D
