Major League Baseball Thread

Don't underestimate Detroit - We've been known to pull things out of our sleeves that alot of fans don't expect. Contract modifications and resigning galore, Batman! The summer game in 2012 is going to be very, very interesting to say the least. This is the year Verlander pitches his perfecto - bringing us what was rightfully ours afew years ago finally to us. KC's always been a non-factor - they just can't get their act together. One team I can see making noise in the NL Central is Pittsburgh, they made some last summer. But this year? We'll have to wait and see - I see a winning record for that franchise in their future. The AL West will be a power battle this year - I remember when that division wasn't a threat or was a minor threat at best. Now it's become a powerful and contending division - watch out! -
and while we may not respond - we are watching. I know that the begging wasn't intended, but this post reeks of "people respond anyway to make it look like it's popular". I, in no means meant that as a mean-spirited comment. Some parks on here get amazing download rates and have little to no comments or critiques. It's all a matter of patience and persistence when it comes to building and making your dreams and parks really come to life. I mean, c'mon, take a look at Charleston Gardens/SFCG and it started out with little or no attention and grew as time went on. I commend your actions in having this park have attention. I know, it may seem like awhile before people really pick up the slack and do something with it. Well, it's a matter of playing the waiting game. You have to wait and see, Stay through the storm and you'll do fine.

If I remember right - Zamperla added one of these mini-frisbees to Coney Island. It's actually quite fun, it's kinda like a playground tire swing that doesn't actually spin you silly. However, speaking of their larger and more spinful brothers and sister frisbees - that's a WHOLE different ballgame and attraction. Either it be Huss or Zamperla!

The bacon is the problem - replace it with sausage links or patties and you got a meal made in heaven for some Americans. For me - Smoked eel is one of the more weirder things I've tried and liked when I was in Germany a couple years ago. Good stuff, it was just funny the eel came from our Great Lakes here in Michigan and in the Midwest.

All the goodies! I got my package today - Thanks Elissa! thanks ever so much! I love the shirt and legos. I was NOT expecting that many pens/pencils/candy, some of the candy canes got mashed though as the photo will show. Thanks for making my holidays even more brighter, I hope to be in attendance of another trip fairly soon. Also - a verbal thank-you!

POLL: Would you be on Fear Factor?
Chris Benvenuto replied to Twister II's topic in Random, Random, Random
There are things I would do and things I wouldn't do. This is under the category of "you'll have to shoot me in the back to do" category, the concept in text and reading it makes me sick. It's kinda not smart for me to read this, when I'm eating late-night Taco Bell. Ergh, I think I just ruined my craving for this other food I have. Yick! -
Seriously, I'm really thinking about doing this. The only problem I have is once I reach LA and the out-lying areas. I need a ride from someone to Knotts and SFMM and back to my hotel. Or, worst comes to worst I could live with someone for afew days and head back home. Mind, not all of this is set in stone - just really thinking out loud for others to hear me out. I really hope I can go - just to do some sweet Christmas/Santa talking.

Lolwut? I have a 76 minute concert (Avenged Sevenfold Live in the LBC), and it takes up 930.5 MB... If it's HD or a higher-quality it'll take more space obviously! -

Kennywood (KW) Discussion Thread
Chris Benvenuto replied to DenDen's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's bittersweet - I have memories of my 13 and 14 year old self screaming it's brains out on Pitt Fall. My uncle commented on it and he said he never really liked the ride because four times out of five they could never get the OTSR down far enough for him to ride. Pitt Fall - you were great. Thanks for being my 1st 2nd gen Intamin freefall. -
Worst I've had - was I've blacked out on Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America. It was the third or fourth ride that day, I was sitting near the back I think 2nd to last row. I blacked out for a couple seconds between the last few hills and the turn before the brake run. EDIT: Forgot to mention, this was 6-7 years ago. I think 2004-2005.
