Desipio Message Board

I'm with Wheezer/Fork here.  They're swine, at best.  It's sad that I was actually angered by what should be good news.  The Veteran's Committee couldn't handle Ron joining their little club while alive, but now they put him in when he can't enjoy it and .  I suspect his wife or son will give the induction speech and I hope, whoever does it, they don't hold back to mention publicly what a low blow from the Veteran's Committee this was.  

So what if he was removed from the radio gig.  Sure we would have all missed out on some famous Ron moments, but he would have had HOF next to his name.  I'm guessing he would have traded that for the radio gig and might have just made as much money signing autographs.  I suspect witnessing a Cubs WS title would have been the only thing higher on his list.

I hope someone substantially better at writing than myself (Andy - I'm talking to you....) can properly depict what a shame this situation is.

Yeah, but Jan's job is a management job.  Being able to make sales doesn't have a lot to do with it.  At least I imagine that's what they were thinking.

I just love that Ryan is going to be Michael's boss.

Great point.  I didn't even catch that.  How sweet is that revenge going to be?

Anybody else sick of the verbal cat fight between the ladies for Jim?  Let's mud wrestle and get it over with.

Pam you draw, sort of.  Go and ask Fallis to help you depict the flasher.

And Angela in Vicky's Secret was great!

I loved the exchange between Pam and Michael.

Pam:  Jan called while you were out.
Michael: Did she say what it was about?

Between that and Dwight's coat, it was worth the second viewing.

How about this: I decide my douchebag co-worker isn't going to let me hit the trashcan so I tuck the ball in and run like hell in an attempt to dunk it in there. I succeed, but not before f@#$ing my knee up completely and rendering me useless for the rest of the season. Then my backup, a Griese douchebag with a hall of fame pedigree comes in to qb the office to heights not seen since the great Sid Luckman was calling the shots around this dump.

Good times?

Two issues with that.  First, you would never even think to duck and run if you have had any question of an injury in the past.  Secondly, you wouldn't have succeeded, you would have tripped and f#$ed up your knee long before you made it to the trash can.

I just fired a small plastic football across my office, overhand, with authority. Nailed a trash can spot on. Good times.

Any interest in playing on the Bears?  That authority descripition you mention is unknown to the current QB.

One minor note - the Cubs didn't start playing in Wrigley until 1916.

That and you forgot the Penguin and the Sarge.  How do you forget a guy who never made a catch without diving.

Still though, I'm right there with you.  84 was my favorite.  Every player on that team was likeable.  Combine that with the fact that games didn't sell out unless they were good (or the Cards were in town) and you've got a very nice baseball situation.

I was talking about that the next day, but I couldn't remember.  I remember seeing her with a drink in her hand, but I couldn't remember if it was alcoholic or not.  Would be pretty bad on NBC's part to have her drinking and then reveal she was pregnant.

Andy is in anger management. I didn't hear Karen say it, but the director's cut from the episode where Andy went ballistic because he couldn't find his phone showed him going at the end. He was trying to convince himself that he's still on the path to upper management, because, after all, anger management is still management.

I liked last night episode. Jan's a f@#$ing freaky psycho bitch, but she was great. So many uncomfortable moments. I didn't see Roy's outburst coming at all. I'm not sure I like where this is going. A little too 90210 for me. We won't find out for about 6 weeks, as the Office will be on hiatus until then. Damn.

She's not a psycho bitch, she's just pregnant.  I heard a rumor that one of the couples was going to have an unexpected pregnancy and I'm guessing that we now we know who.  The "I'm sick" at the end gave it away.  I can't wait to see Michael's reaction when he finds out.

I'll place a slap bet that they continue to get worse as they stray from the comedy and lean towards the drama.

That makes me wonder...Why is it "weird" to wear a cape in public?  Capes are badassed.  Everyone should have an ominous black cape.

Haven't you seen "The Incredibles"?  No capes.
