QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 7, 2016 -> 12:22 PM) Nobody cares. My hope is the FBI isn't in the business of wasting its time and it recommends formal charges. Then if Obama throws out the case or the attorney general won't prosecute they are given hell by Congress. Ideally she will have to be replaced as candidate cause nobody wants impeachment. That would not be good for the country.

I know you won't believe me, but I like to ask people in an objective tone IN PERSON what they think of Hillary. I don't pre-judge or lead into it by saying I despise her and can't watch her on TV cause of her voice/yelling. I just ask without tipping my hand on my feelings toward her til later in the discussion. Today two more people went on long rants about how she is a liar and should be in big legal trouble over the email thing. I told these 2 people that nobody seems to care about the email thing and they were adamant and got very upset that they indeed care and it will ultimately bring Hillary down. We shall see.

First move in a long time I like. He's played in the AL before is a big plus for me compared to some of the NL guys we've acquired. I've studied his stats and won't be a Debbie Downer pointing out some of the offensive stats. I just like the signing overall, especially compared to so many of the other moves the team has made. I think I'll buy MLB.com now as with the mixing and matching I would "think" the team would be able to play close to .500 ball at the worse and if everything clicks, might have a good team. Any quotes come out yet from Robin? Starting cf from day one with Eaton starting in right and Avi sharing DH with LaRoche as well as LaRoche once in a while playing first?

QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 6, 2016 -> 03:07 PM) Fascinating. Where do you get your information? It's generally known prisoners want to take out scumbags who kill innocent people. Think of how many women he killed, maybe children too. Prisoners want those guys. Didn't Gacy get killed in jail? Or beaten? Dahmer got killed in jail I believe.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 05:24 PM) We should. Trump is feeding whatever BS possible to get into the white house. Now part of me feels good about that, cause if he was serious about half the stuff he said and somehow got elected, we'd be screwed. But it is also just shameful...beyond typical political games. I thought Kasich was fine (actually got more air time than Rubio), but he's not electric. That said, I don't think he has to be, he's the best candidate on either party to make this country better. That doesn't seem to matter though. Experience (check), track record (check), ability to enact change and work with others (check). I was surprised, but I didn't really have any issues with anything Cruz did (and normally I did). I suppose I'm warming up a bit to him. What I'd give for Kasich to take Ohio and get some momentum and win a few states and get this thing to a brokered convention. Kasich is so much more open and funny and engaging as a radio media analyst. He's blown it big time by being very very boring in the debates, etc. People snicker at me for talking about Hillary's annoying, loud, screaming whenever she speaks publicly, but this stuff matters. Kasich is too soft spoken and boring for the general public in 2016. Sad cause he is great.

When you are hurting, baseball can't be that much fun. Wonder if he'll retire or if the $$$ is too much to turn away from.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) One reason why acquiring another bat is so important: Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 18m18 minutes ago Adam LaRoche exited the game earlier this inning with back spasms. #WhiteSox What about giving Davidson a chance?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 02:24 PM) You are actually for the abuse and murder of prisoners. That is my point. After what this guy did I think it's funny he took six good punches yes. He coulda fought back. He's never getting out for good behavior

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 11:40 PM) So no one on the outside could contact someone on the inside to do it for them... I'm saying the odds of inmates knowing Holmes is in their prison are 100 percent. And yes, the inmates all will want to kill him. As far as outsiders ... like I said they aren't going to be allowed in. What is your point? Obviously a.) ALL inmates will know Holmes is among them. And b.) yes a good majority will want to kill him. Are you actually against the victims' families getting to know where the perpetrator is being housed?? That's kind of insensitive IMO.

How the hell can they prove it was indeed found on OJ's property?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 05:22 PM) Do you think it will be one of the 4 remaining candidates, or will it be someone not currently in the race. If it isn't someone in the race, who do you think it will be? Romney, Jeb, Paul Ryan? Personally, I think if they end up brokered, Kasich is the only standing who I think would have a chance and even than, I'm thinking it will be as the VP (I actually think he would be very high up on Trump's list, to be frank). I will point out, Kasich was on O'Reilly after the debate and very firmly said he is not interested in being the VP (how true that is, who knows). My prediction is if it goes to a brokered convention, it will be Paul Ryan. Kasich was on a radio show today and was emphatic he will refuse to be anybody's vice president. I can't imagine him being that forceful if he planned on being a VEEP. The host said "I think you will" and Kasich said there is no chance of that.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 05:47 PM) So today's scandal is that Hillary paid herself 250,000 in campaign funds. No other candidate did so. Does anyone care? I do. I was talking to some 20 somethings yesterday at an event in Lawrence and asked them what they thought of the election. Of course I asked about Hillary and you should see their response. I don't know if all young people hate other people's grandmothers or something but they immediately burst out saying how much they despise Hillary. She's going to have to accept the fact young people are not in her corner for whatever reason.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 04:24 PM) Why exactly would he get exposed? All he has is a track record of success (every where he's went)? Because he's boring and cerebral? Is that why he'd be exposed? Or are you referring to how aggressive he has been in the past to get things done (that ended up being pretty successful)? Dude knows policy well and is actually relatively moderate. Exactly. Chisoxfan speaks the truth ... again. Kasich should be the Republicans' choice. Give him a great vice president candidate, the most qualified young woman who could be the Republicans' next presidential candidate, and that party would be set to challenge Hillary.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 10:43 PM) So someone knows where he is at, beats the s*** out of him, but he is protected from being attacked if people know where he is at. That might the dumbest thing I have seen you post. An inmate beat the piss out of him. A gate was open for a second and the inmate got through. s*** happens. Somebody in the regular public isn't going to bust into the jail and pummel him. Cmon, you are not naive regarding inmates knowing who the famous inmates are. Every inmate is going to know it's Holmes in their prison. And like Gacy, of course he's targeted. Yes he's "protected" from some member of the public coming in and killing or beating him. That won't ever happen. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 10:48 PM) I still don't understand why anyone would care where he's at. Have you guys never known a victim? The family of the lowlife who murdered my friend always wants to know where the killer is being housed, what kind of accomdations he has, whether he's had any escape attempts, disciplinary actions, etc. All that is public record and available. The public has a right to know where murderers are being held. Some people have nightmares wondering if the murderer gets out he'll come after them. They need to know where he's being held.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 04:10 PM) So in the same thread you are telling us he is well protected, you posted a story about someone kicking his ass. No one needs to debate you, we'll just let you debate yourself. Somebody left a gate open for a second. Wherever he's housed the inmates will know. The public needs to know. Badger?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 08:28 AM) Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby. Are you against the public knowing where this demon is being housed? If so, why? He's well protected in the penal system.

Why would anybody oppose the public knowing where the bastard is being imprisoned? It is the right of the victims families to follow him during his life. To know where the hell he is being kept. It's not like we're going to go there and visit him and yell at him. He has to approve visitors and the government asks why in the hell you want to visit? It is a right of all of us and public record to know where he is being kept.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 06:03 AM) Why does it matter what prison as long as he is indeed in prison? Do you plan on visiting? Trying to get thrown in said jail to get your punches in? It's very important to the victims. I know this from experience.

QUOTE (illinilaw08 @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 10:55 PM) Greg, the State's job is to protect all prisoners who are incarcerated, whether they like them or not. The State of Colorado does not need to, and in fact shouldn't, give out any information regarding Holmes' whereabouts. Citizens have a right to know where criminals are serving their time. It's the public's right to know and the victims right to know. Most states have databases that are easily navigated.

Bernie was in my neck of the woods today. If you listen to this man, you will realize he SHOULD be the Democratic candidate. Bernie Sanders is a great man and a helluva candidate! He's the polar opposite of Hillary. I happen to think Hillary is a liar and a fairly rotten person. My opinion. Bernie appears to be a truth teller and a good person.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 05:14 AM) Ladies and gentlemen, your Republican candidates for presidency. If people don't see that Kasich is the only f***ing shot, then the GOP deserve every f***ing thing that's about to happen to them. It is simply amazing the Republicans can't get a reasonable person, a good candidate, and a guy with a helluva track record the fricking nomination - Mr. Kasich. You said it all. Great great post.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 09:48 PM) Im just glad I dont have to listen to Ben Carson beg for people to attack him so he gets time to talk this time. Good observation! That was kinda humorous. I'm a little surprised the media wasn't kinder to Dr. Carson. As the only African-American candidate, in this day and age of PC, you'd think the media would have been a little more careful in regards to treatment of him. They kind of made him seem buffoon-ish. Strange behavior especially after eight years of kid gloves treatment of Obama. There aren't many Republicans in the national political media, I am assuming.

Good story about a prisoner in Colorado who got in six or more good punches in on the asshole who entered the theatre in Colorado and murdered innocent people in the most terrifying of ways. It is disgusting Colorado won't reveal where this bastard currently is incarcerated. THey MUST give this information out. It's probably sad I think this way, but I'm happy the prisoner beat the s*** out of Holmes. He said he wishes he could have killed Holmes but only beat the crap out of him. https://www.yahoo.com/gma/exclusive-inside-...topstories.html

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 10:17 PM) http://www.vox.com/2016/3/1/11142390/chris...ian-joke-oscars What Chris Rock's lazy Asian joke revealed about "diversity" at the Oscars It was comedy so I'm not outraged, but when you think about it, in today's PC day and age, that was pretty ballsy of Rock to go there especially using little kids as "props." I'm not offended, don't get me wrong, but it's interesting how he and the Oscars went there.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 06:05 AM) Kelly and Fox News would love to have Clinton in office for four years, it means much higher ratings (and revenues) for FOX than when a Republican is in office. Comparing Adam Eaton and Hillary Clinton isn't going to get us anywhere. A lot of that incident was staged as an "ambush" at a private fundraising dinner, it was more or less a calculated stunt meant to provoke a confrontation and not a legitimate attempt at real dialogue. As always, there's a double standard for what a Clinton, Trump or Bush can get away (heck, anyone on Wall Street the last decade), compared to a normal, middle class American. Great posts Caulfield. You are a political maestro IMO. I like your last paragraph here as it points to yet another story I found suggesting that Bill and Hillary feel entitled to do anything they please. Here was another atrocity IMO. http://observer.com/2016/03/no-shame-for-b...-no-boundaries/
