Troy
Troy (2004)

IMDB rating: 6.90

Plot: It is the year 1250 B.C. during the late Bronze age. Two emerging nations begin to clash after Paris, the Trojan prince, convinces Helen, Queen of Sparta, to leave her husband Menelaus, and sail with him back to Troy. After Menelaus finds out that his wife was taken by the Trojans, he asks his brother Agamemnom to help him get her back. Agamemnon sees this as an opportunity for power. So they set off with 1,000 ships holding 50,000 Greeks to Troy. With the help of Achilles, the Greeks are able to fight the never before defeated Trojans. But they come to a stop by Hector, Prince of Troy. The whole movie shows their battle struggles, and the foreshadowing of fate in this remake by Wolfgang Petersen of Homer’s “The Iliad.”

Should i keep troy tulowitzki or Grady sizemore for my 5×5 8 team roto league?


IF I had to choose between the 2,I’d have to keep Tulo; Mainly because of position scarcity..
There’s only a handful of top notch SSs,and there’s a ton of outfielders; And more great outfielders come up each season..So it’ll be alot easier to replace Sizemore then Tulo.
Sizemore’s numbers suffered last year because he chose to play through injuries for most of the year;
But,even when they’re both healthy,their numbers should be comparable.Which would make me want to keep the SS over the outfielder.

Pronk is totally correct in my opinion. Tulo is a fantasy hero now that he is over his injury and the position counts.
jreb64 | Jan 30, 2010


i’m gonna have to agree with the others. tulo is a SS while sizemore is an OF. you can easily get an OF with just as good if not better stats than sizemore where getting a solid 5 tool SS is hard and rare.
coreyr107000 | Jan 31, 2010


totally agree with them. i like sizemore but he is an outfielder, ss are tougher to get. (good ones).

What is your impression of these names?
So my friend and I were talking about "when we get married and have kids" which naturally lead into the discussion of baby names. And we more or less got in a bit of an argument over which names are girly and which are tomboyish. So, can you help us settle the score? Please rate the names and nicknames (cause we both agreed that while one name can be girly a nickname can be tomboyish and vice versa). Sorry this is a bit long. Also, feel free to add any other interjections about the names, I love finding out how other people view names.

Just for clarification, the proper name is the first one in a set and the rest are possible nicknames. Minus the few we agreed on.

It depends on the person, not the name. And you have a ton of names on here, break it down into smaller questions and you might get more answers. It’s a long list to comprehend all at once.
Elle1288 | Jan 18, 2010


You all have really been busy thinking up names!! I like all the variations you have. My daughter is named Malinda We tried nicknames, but none of them ever took. She’s Malinda. Could have been Mindy, Mandy, Mallie, Linda, Lin, Andi, Lindy, Mae, Linda,etc. I really like all the choices you have.

Enter beautiful Princess Salome, Herod’s long-absent stepdaughter. Herodias sees the king’s dawning lust for Salome as her means of bending the king to her will. But Salome and her lover Claudius are (contrary to Scripture) nearing conversion to the new religion. And the famous climactic dance turns out to have unexpected implications…

I met Cody at the pool one day when he was with my best friend Albert & i went to go hang out with Albert. & we started talking & i really started to like him. but one night i had like 5 friends over & Salome & Cody came over & we all hung out.

but my old best friend Rachelle was ALL OVER him. She met him in cheerleading she asked me who he is. & i said thats Cody.! & they ended up dating. but they broke up cause she cheated on him with kyle.! & Cody & me started liking each other again & we talked & he said he loved me & i was the only girl that he doesnt regret going out with.

& i hung out with him again last night & he was like girls are like flavors of ice cream.! you only like them for awile! & i freaked out.! & he looked at me & said mint is the only one that stays. then later on. he called me that mint girl! hahaha. but he is still grounded & he is in a grade above me & goes to a different school but only lives a block away from me.!

Kyle>>>>>>Well kyle is also very cute & just hysterical. the only problem is he has a girlfriend who his parents told him he has to break up with her but he hasnt yet.! he asked me out like 7 months ago but i was dating Cody at the time. but when i was talking t him when he is still with his girlfriend. we were always flirting. & he said that when he talks to me he forgets he has a girfriend & it makes him sad. & he told me he secretly loves me. & when

me & him hug he doesnt want to let go & now whenever we say im cold thaa other one is like all over thaa one that is cold & he said that he loves that.! & he keeps freeaking out saying he loves me & loves when we are together but then that he feels bad cause of his girlfriend.. but he is in my grade & we have 1st 2nd & 8th period with him.! & wow.
