Since this is sports site, hopefully people here can help......

Anyone got any tips or anything on how to stretch out jersey shirts?

I got one, but it's shaped strangely. It's listed as same size as all my other shirts, but it seems to be diff length/width than them. Can't exchange it for a bigger size, so I'm stuck with only other alternative, stretching it out and hoping it fits. Don't need to stretch it too much, just like a inch or two length and width wise.

Doesn't matter the sport since jersey shirts from mlb,nba,nhl,nfl are basically the same(team logo on the front,player name/number on the back), so hoping anyone who got a shirt from any of those sports, might have had similar problem and found solution.

One of my friends is saying that the Twins need to blow up their whole team after tonight.

I mean, it is the Marlins (no offense, Chrisksaint), but one game is never something to get that worked up about.

I'm still very pissed about how they went about assembling the starting pitching staff this offseason, but the future is actually bright. I just wish Morneau wasn't sabotaging his trade value. It's also nice to know that Kyle Gibson isn't some kind of myth. He's actually starting this weekend.

He's real, and he's (hopefully) spectacular.

Mizzou ceased to exist in my mind when the ultimate handshake guy signed with the Chiefs

Best signing of all time, by the way.

Re: Off Topic 2013

Possible TLDR warning:

So I'm a little conflicted right now. My current job isn't really cutting it anymore. Everyone that works there is getting screwed with hours, yet we just got 3 new hires that cut our hours even more. Personally I've gone from 17-20 hours to 10-15 a week, which is killing me considering I pay $220 a month for my car plus food/gas/etc. I'd hate to leave because I like most of the people that work there and they're extremely flexible with your schedule and time off requests, but they're leaving me with no choice.

My mom works for the health insurance division of our local hospital and said there's an opening coming up that I might be interested in...I've made a pros and cons list.

Pros
Pays $11 an hour
Two days a week
A lot of room for growth/moving around the company (although I do want to leave the area when I finish school)
Guaranteed consistent hours
Would break up school and work so I don't have to go straight from work to class or vice versa

Cons
The two days are Saturday and Sunday 7:30-5
I'd be working in the same department as my mom

I'm probably overreacting, but I feel like I'm forfeiting my entire social life and would turn myself into a hermit. I'd never be able to golf, go on vacation, or do anything that I enjoy, which isn't necessarily what I want. The money and all of that would be great but I don't want to be completely miserable and never be able to do anything.

Re: Off Topic 2013

I just beat Bioshock 2 and now that I think of it that may be the first trilogy of games I've ever actually gotten all the way through.

Which is stupid. I hate myself for the amount of games I don't end up beating.

Also you should go buy all 3 Bioshock games right now if you haven't played them. They are so unbelievably good that I'm honestly pretty sad that they're over. I might just start Infinite again tomorrow just because.

Re: Off Topic 2013

Spent all afternoon yesterday with my girlfriend. We went to a movie party (and saw Monsters University...weird as the party was for a college freshman.) Then we got pizza, and went back to her house. She said she really appreciated that I came to the party even though I didn't know anyone there.

Re: Off Topic 2013

TripleCrown9: well done sir.

Dayman: Does Bioshock Infinite come with a copy of the original Bioshock? I thought I remembered seeing that on the game case at the store. I have BioShock2 from a free download from the PS store.

I have to play this series. Have heard too many good things.

Don't get me wrong, I want a new console, but the more I think about it, I think I'm okay with just holding off and enjoying the great games that I've missed out on over the course of the last generation.

I picked up Red Dead Redemption for my PS3 a few weeks ago, and I'm really enjoying getting another play through of it.

I've heard nothing but great things about the Uncharted series, but have never played them. The same goes for Bioshock. I definitely feel like I've missed out.

I'm just looking on the bright side of things, as I'm not going to be able to afford a new console with this newfound college budget I'm on. My PS3 still has some life, are there any more must play games that you guys would recommend?

That's pretty much where I am at on it too (even picked up playing Red Dead currently)...wrote a blog on it.

I think I can play my Bethesda games (The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series) for infinity.

Re: Off Topic 2013

I don't know why everyone wants one ASAP anyway. They always have some sort of bugs or part defects or something to that nature.

And yeah, I know. There's a thread for that...
