QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 07:56 PM) You're right to doubt him, so do I. But I don't think you can say anything until you watch the frontline epiosde or read the interview. I believe the question you asked is answered by him. I didn't vote for him... I voted for George Bush... what he says means nothing to me..

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 07:52 PM) Sec159, if you don't mind, please clarify point 2: is it just radical Islamic fundamentalism you refuse to elevate to the status of a religion or all of Islam? As for defending Durbin the person, I for one am doing no such thing. I'm defending the statements made by an elected official that have been twisted to make it sound like he said something he did not. It could have been Durbin, Daffy Duck, or anyone else, and I don't care if he's from Illinois or Idaho or whether he is red, blue, or whatever. these people don't practice Islam... A religion that says it is OK to kill whoever some mullah tells you to kill is not a religion... it is a cult... or the US government..

he's "former" CIA... why??? I'd much prefer to trust the person I voted for, President Bush, than some guy who no longer works for the CIA... If I didn't trust him I wouldn't have voted for him... it's a shame that the democrats or liberals haven't learned from the nov. elections... it's pretty simple.. 51% conservative.. 49% liberal.. the liberals lost and will continue the attack until 2008, and if they run hillary... just more evidence that the democratic party ignored the results from 2004... man I wish there was a game tonight... I'm bored...

a few points to note on this nonsense... and none of this justifies what is going on... just some notes... 1. Does anyone know what happens in cook county jail??? I'd rather be at gitmo.. 2. These prisoners have more freedom to practice their "cult" ( I can't refer to what they worship as a religion) in gitmo than they would if they were on the other side of the island in havana... 3. They are not holding the afgan boys choir, or bagdad symphony orchestra these are individuals who have sworn an oath to kill us... when they are let go they will return to kill us... 4. IMO these individuals forfeit any human right when they pay homage to al queda... Janet Reno would have just torched the whole cult... 5. And it is nice to see the california and florida members agreeing/defending/supporting these comments from Durbin, 'cause YOU DON"T VOTE HERE!!!! the democratic party in illinois is in deep do-do... the democrats in Chicago are going, if it hasn't already started, to chop up the Daley empire so bad and all the RED to Chicago's south will not put up with Durbin. 6. if you support durbin you had better move here soon.... :banghead :banghead :banghead

QUOTE(Middle Buffalo @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 10:27 AM) Since the attendance comparison is really always made in relation to the Cubs, here's the history of attendance at Wrigley. Their attendance can ultimately be linked to winning in 1984, Harry, becoming a tourist destination, and the rejuvination of the area. Before 1984, Wrigley attendance was not so great. I get sick of hearing about how loyal their fans are. I remember late 70's/early 80's when portions of the upper deck were roped off because they didn't want to pay ushers to work sections with just a handful of people. Too bad all the columnists don't take the time to do a little research. They'd rather write about a stupid effing goat and attend the day games. Chicago Cubs attendance at Wrigley Field 2004 3,170,154 2003 2,962,630 2002 2,693,096 2001 2,779,465 2000 2,789,511 1999 2,813,854 1998 2,623,194 1997 2,190,308 1996 2,219,110 1995 1,918,265 1994 1,845,208 1993 2,653,763 1992 2,126,720 1991 2,314,250 1990 2,243,791 1989 2,491,942 1988 2,089,034 1987 2,035,130 1986 1,859,102 1985 2,161,534 1984 2,107,655 1983 1,479,717 1982 1,249,278 1981 565,637 1980 1,206,776 1979 1,648,587 1978 1,525,311 1977 1,439,834 1976 1,026,217 1975 1,034,819 1974 1,015,378 1973 1,351,705 1972 1,299,163 1971 1,653,007 1970 1,642,705 1969 1,674,993 1968 1,043,409 1967 977,226 1966 635,891 1965 641,361 1964 751,647 1963 979,551 1962 609,802 1961 673,057 1960 809,770 1959 858,255 1958 979,904 1957 670,629 1956 720,118 1955 875,800 1954 748,183 1953 763,658 1952 1,024,826 1951 894,415 1950 1,165,944 1949 1,143,139 1948 1,237,792 1947 1,364,039 1946 1,342,970 1945 1,036,386 1944 640,110 1943 508,247 1942 590,972 1941 545,159 1940 534,878 1939 726,663 1938 951,640 1937 895,020 1936 699,370 1935 692,604 1934 707,525 1933 594,112 1932 974,688 1931 1,086,422 1930 1,463,624 1929 1,485,166 1928 1,143,740 1927 1,159,168 1926 885,063 1925 622,610 1924 716,922 1923 703,705 1922 542,283 1921 410,107 1920 480,783 1919 424,430 1918 337,256 1917 360,218 1916 453,685 Attendance figures courtesy of Total Baseball what happened in 1981???

vazquez was throwing to a MUCH larger home plate last night... I didn't know the strike zone changed from pitcher to pitcher...

haven't had a chance to read to article yet but the sox attendence woes have made the front page of the WSJ :banghead

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jun 13, 2005 -> 02:27 AM) When I spotted this article while surfing earlier in the evening I said to myself "here comes another Soxtalk thread" and sure enough........... As far as I'm concerned this is just another cry-fest by the liberal media. AWWW The poor terrorists. They have to stay up all night, or they have to stand for a long time or a dog barked at them. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Listening to Christina Aguilera, well that's well beyond my defenition of torture however...... . I'm so sick and tired of the media and these do gooder groups like Amnesty running around whining about how these pieces of human filth are being treated in Guantanamo. As far as I'm concerned they are treated FAR too well. These people who are there are dangerous and if given half a chance would kill as many Americans as they possibly could because their warped interpretation of Islam tells them to.

does pujols still have twice the votes as D. Lee???

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 4, 2005 -> 01:03 AM) I just found it hilarious that someone living on the west coast was b****ing about attendance. The irony is delicious. maybe he works for ESPN.... should this even be green ??????

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Jun 4, 2005 -> 12:44 AM) Dude I made it clear why I care. Because it affects the team's chances to sign studs. Read my posts again. the sox have s*** attendence learn to live with it... what difference does it make??? the only thing that matters are the nine guys on the field... if you ever end up going to sox park you will find out it is a great place with 20k... if the sox started drawing 40k a game I would probably stop going... and if you think the $$ that 40k a game would bring in would go toward new "talent" you're nuts.. those profits are going into jerry's and his investors pockets...... I am also questioning how much you pay attention to what has happened to the sox this offseason... they got rid of their "higher" profile guys mags.. clee.. to get "nobody's" pods, hermy ...and the team is doing better... the direction this team is taking is away from the tejada's and arod's not toward them...

buy low sell high... what don't you understand???

there is nothing about worms in this thread...

QUOTE(mreye @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 12:15 PM) Then, I seek reparations for the untimely deaths of my ancestors while defending the North and ending slavery. my grandparents didn't come to this country till about 1910( and couldn't leave ellis island until they passed a language test)... should I pay for these "reparations"???

I can't believe some of the posts in here... IMO kittle is telling the truth... why do I think this?? must be "spidey sense" ... if it isn't true where's the libel/defamation of character lawsuit?? there isn't any because it is true.. same reason noone is suing canseco, cause his book is true... and even if barry was "joking" that's even worse... can you imagine a white player saying he doesn't sign for african-americans...even if he were "joking"... it would be all over the press, jesse jackson would be picketing stadiums, and the white player would be forced out of the league... the fact that this is getting little press IMO means that it is entirely true... I cannot wish harm/injury on any person, regardless of color, but something tells me barry is getting his punishment with his "infection"... ps... stef... you should be ashamed of yourself for comparing frank to barry...
