    Well lately I haven't been the one bringing them up. I didn't start this thread either, but of course I'm gonna reply to it.

     

    BUT since you asked.

     

    IF the Indiana Pacers do not win the 2005-2006 NBA World Championship I will never mention them even in a reply on this board again.

  2. That's fuggin' funny.  :blink:

    Actually I did find it quite funny considering the thugs from Detroit are getting embarrassed on the biggest stage there is right now.

     

    You heard it here first, the Pacers are going to be World Champions in 05-06. I guarantee it on June 12, 2005.

  3. This coming from the poster who was ecstatic that his team got swept in the World Series last year.  You were all about second place last year

    Happy they got swept? No I wasn't happy about that. I was happy with their season as a whole. If you told me in April of 2004 that the Cardinals would finish second in Major League Baseball I would have taken that since they were picked by most media to finish out of the playoffs and third in their division.

  4. We can debate all we like but I think everyone would agree that the best Floyd is when Waters and Gilmore were both present.  ;)

    Pink Floyd is at it's best when Roger sticks to the lyrics and the rest of them stick to the music. Roger is a far superior vocalist and lyricist than Gilmour is, while the rest of the band is musically superior to Waters.

  5. the musical framework for comfortablly numb was written by Dave as well as one of teh best guitar solos in the history of Rock. Dave had written the music for a solo project and brought it into the Wall as Comfortably numb. I may be wrong so correct me, but I think I am right.

     

    Edit: for course the words were written by Roger.

    David was asked to put together the framework for a song that Roger had written. I believe he was given the lyrics and whatever else he needed to come up with the main riff and arrangement. When he brought it back to Waters and hte producer they didn't feel it was very good and stuck with the original arrangement Waters had come up with, but included the opening from what Dave had written. I'm sure the solo was all David however.

  6. OK, I will stand up for poor Dave. I think Floyd started to go downhill with The Wall. Roger got all uppity and took the project over - even musically. Whereas before that Dave (and to some extend wright) were the musical brains. Roger was always a mediocre to poor musician. Lyrically he is in the same league as Dylan and Springsteen.

     

    Post-Barrett Floyd was at its best in Wish You Were Here - musically and lyrically it is brilliant. The Wall is weak musically except on those peices where Roger actully allowed input by Dave (Run Like Hell and Comfortably Numb).

    Um you are aware that Dave had very little input into the final product of "Comfortably Numb" correct?

     

    The Wall is FILLED with classic material. In the Flesh?, Hey You, Another Brick in the Wall I-III, Mother, I could go on and on.

  7. He pretty much hates everyone, doesn't he? Self-righteous narcissistic git, he is.

     

    That said, the Gilmour-led Floyd really bit.

    Roger Waters gets a bad rap. To create an album like the Wall you are going to have to create friction along the way with your bandmates. That's where things really went downhill. Roger was the brains behind Floyd. Gilmour, Wright, and Mason have proven that with their futile efforts to continue under the name.

  8. "Please feel free to tell me how much I suck, how much women suck, and mainly how much I suck. Help me understand why I would date a woman who lived with multiple cats. Also, does anyone know how long I have to wait before I inquire about her single friends (many of whom thought I was cool and that she was an idiot)? "

     

    ROTFLMAO

     

    I'm sorry but I just can't stop laughing at how bluntly you describe things.

  9. Correct.  Apparently he took a couple of beats and fell back.  My friend who works with him (well, he doesn't really work any more except for playing poker) almost flew out to Vegas to watch the final table but he told her not to since he's short stacked now and could be out early.  Still, nice to clear a minimum of $50k.  That'll more than pay for his entry into the rest of the tournaments and his expenses for the month.

    He made 132,000 dollars. Not bad for 3 days work.

    Pham's button. Schleger opens for $36,000, Gracz calls from the big blind. The flop comes 8h 7c 3s 7d. Both players check. The turn is the 7d. Gracz checks, and Schleger moves all in. Gracz thinks for a while, and calls. Schleger shows Ks Js, Gracz shows Ad 10h. Gracz makes the call with ace high, and he's correct! Schleger needs a king or jack on the river. The 10c hits, and Schleger is eliminated in 5th, earning $132,110.
