 | Real Estate Investment - Any Good Books? - BigBoyTiger on 1/9/13 at 9:15 pm I know the concept is pretty simple, but I'm trying to learn from people who have been successful owning real estate properties. Does anyone know of a good book in which someone outlines some of their great successes as well as (more importantly), some of their greatest failures?
Just curious. Th...

 | Cleveland Weather Predictions (Tues 11//6) - BigBoyTiger on 11/5/12 at 10:57 am Based on what I saw on the Weather Channel, Cleveland is expected to have a high of 49 and the chance of rain is 100%.
I am thinking this is a positive thing for the Romney campaign as it could discourage voting in that heavily blue area.
What say you?...

I picked up Christian Ponder last night (good matchup versus a shitty Saints defense). I may also pick up Andy Dalton (it's an 8...

 | Official Rangers Trade Deadline Thread - BigBoyTiger on 7/29/11 at 1:57 pm Newest rumor is that the A's Andrew Bailey has moved to the top of the Rangers wish list.
San Diego wants a lefty (Holland or Erlin (AA)) more than likely. That could stymie the deal for Bell.
I just know it's clear to everybody that their bullpen is a disaster right now and they need help if ...

 | Rangers - Angels - BigBoyTiger on 8/7/09 at 10:26 am So here it is. This is most definitely the Rangers season on the line. In my opinion, if the Rangers don't win this series, they are more than likely done this year.
The Rangers will send out the dependable Scott Feldman (10-4, 3.91 ERA) versus Joe Saunders (9-6,5.07 ERA).
I like the Rangers ...

 | Big Tom Hunter - BigBoyTiger on 7/28/09 at 7:50 am The Tigers were the latest team to get "Hunterized". Big Tommy went 7, giving up a run. His ERA now stands at a nice round 2.00 ERA.
This guy is legit and he is really helping the Rangers make a push in the AL West.
I still think the Rangers need a bat though.

I'm interested in a place on the north side of Chicago. How do I figure out if it is a foreclosure/bank owned? Is there a way to do this?
Also, I am just curious about FHA loans. What are the qualifications?

 | Best Buy - BigBoyTiger on 2/3/09 at 9:01 pm Okay..so I got into Best Buy at $17.95. My thought process was that its main competitor was weakened to a point of no return and it was cheap on a forward P/E basis ($2.30/share was the low end of FY 2009 guidance, making for a P/E around 8 or so)
Well, Best Buy is $28.56 right now. That would me...
