today, i got a check from CD MAP Antitrust Litigation. $13.86. i think i filled out a form last year that said something about me buying a cd at some point while i was alive. because of buying this cd, i was given enough money to... buy a cd. at best buy, that is, not even at a real record store. then again, domains cost $12, so it might go towards that...
a growing trend on this site is ajay and chad being annoying. maybe they just annoy me. if you're annoyed by chad and ajay's posts against me, feel free to speak up. otherwise i'll get a complex. chad and ajay alone can't give me a complex, but chad and ajay and the implicit agreement from everyone else... that might be something else.
finally, it seems that rob neyer likes the indians! espn has a lot of love for the tribe in general, it seems. for example, from the preseason rankings -
"19. Indians - Poised to make a move upward, once young players like Sizemore and Lee blossom. Might finish 1st, might finish 4th."
thad, feel free to respond with the mariners snippet (#10). parker can post with his team, the red sox (#2).. or the a's (#6). hehe.
woo, baseball!
free money!

chad described 2005 or 2006 (i hope), which is when he and i both kept saying the indians would be real real good. however, neyer saying that since our division sucks (YAY!) we might be competetive this year? yeah, that's real real exciting.
spring training is gonna rule!

written last september by me about chad:
"that kid sucks so much but he always makes things better in overly serious situations. which means, i guess, that he doesn't suck that much at all. stupid chad. hehe."

Sports in Columbus suck like no other. Maybe thats why everyone here sacrafices their fist born to the scarlet and gray.

everything sucks in columbus other than college football.
re: go bucks!
from: chad (2004-02-26 17:48:37)
the real reason they sacrifice their first born to the buckeyes is because columbus isnt a city...its a college town that happens to be supremely oversized because the school is supremely oversized. columbus is just bloomington or west lafayette or norman, just with a bigger school

the blue jackets supposedly have an amazing arena that is one of the best places to experience a pro-sports event, so apparently not everything sucks in columbus. also, why don't more people call that team the BJs?

you wrote "if you're annoyed by chad and ajay's posts against me, feel free to speak up."
see i think this is where part of the confusion comes in. As a friend I'd be remiss to simply let something go where i might think it could be problematic later. my posts are not "against you." (maybe the you're a dick post, but well you are!).
see what i am saying is i am not always trying to antagonize you in return.

this is similar to how you think i care about what you say, or believe anything you say. the nature of written text is that it is hard to convey accurate emotions i.e. the banter between chad and myself, or actually just whatever chad wrote was not as mean-spirited as his writing voice made it seem. likewise, when i call you angry, it is not because i'm pissed at you, but more because its hilarious. etc etc.
re: you say that cause it's hilarious? that excuse d
from: chad (2004-03-01 10:49:50)
because, niv, you arent funny
re: this shouldnt give niv a complex
baseball is so soon...the today show filmed in chicago today and everyone was wearing cubs gear and lots of "cub-bies, cub-bies" chants went up. and all i kept thinking was Grady Sizemore, Milton Bradley, and Alex Escobar around the outfield; hafner/broussard, philips, peralta and eventually whitney from 1st to third, and victor martinez behind the plate...plus lee, davis, stanford, sabathia, and whoever else steps up (fausto carmona eventually....) man the next few seasons should be good.
