OOO, how about this quote from RedSoxNation:
"Am I allowed to rip the career never won 15 games in a season pitcher Kerry Wood for giving up home runs to the 8 and 9 hitters for the Braves in a must game? If healthy, Prior will be a great pitcher for at least a decade. However, after 6 years, can we start to consider Kerry Wood a slightly better than average pitcher?"

Aw man, I totally forgot to post a thread about this ... That's one frowny for me 
The most hilarious thing about Tommy Dreamer is that everyone else in WWE, from Shelton Benjamin to dudes who haven't even debuted yet, has a T-shirt available. WWE doesn't even bother printing up a T-shirt for Tommy Dreamer, A MAN WHOSE GIMMICK IS WEARING A T-SHIRT WHILE WRESTLING. And why is that? Because not a god damn person would ever pay money for a Tommy Dreamer shirt. Not even his own mother. As a result he usually ends up wearing a shirt that says "WRESTLEMANIA 24" or "JUDGEMENT DAY." I think it's time for Tommy Dreamer to just print up a T-shirt that says "UPCOMING PAY PER VIEW"

Love CSI, both original and Miami. And I'm a HUGE SVU fan. The problem is I'm a hardware tech, not a programmer, so I rely on copy/pasting the HTML which took MUCH longer than I anticipated/took way too much work. So essentially I grabbed two to four from each year, and assumed that someone (such as yourself) will add others they liked to avoid tearng my hair out. I'm glad traffic was slow when I did this, because it took four or five times before all the linsk worked
Now I have a template (and know not to do it in word where it auto formats) so the next time I do it it should be easier.
I'm not going to do it everyday, but I like seeing this enough I'll do it every so often.

It was much easier this time because I decided instead of just writing out my html each time I just made one and copied it each time and subbed in the number of the thread and my "witty" commentary.
Edit: I guess I didn't answer the question. About a half hour.
