QUOTE(minors @ Feb 20, 2006 -> 10:19 PM) Well they are also in Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia and no it not embarrassing. Evolution is not well thought of around here. I don't see what the problem is letting the kids decide what is true and what isn't. By not putting a disclaimer on the book that makes it sound like evolution is a proven fact which it is not. I am not saying we need to teach ID or creation but at least let the kids have a choice. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I can't imagine it's related to the Bible. I'm guessing you don't have a strong scientific background unlike Flasoxxjim and myself. The scientific theory of evolution is called that because it follows the scientific model. You know, hypothesis, test, re-test, make conclusions and recommendations, re-test. Evolution fits this model, so it is taught in a science class. Where would you want something like this tested? In a gym class? ID is not scientific based, and it is more "well some of evolution doesn't make sense to me, and we should let our kids decide what they want to believe." I suppose if I wanted 2+3=7 taught in a math class because that's what I decided to believe in I should go to my local school board and demand for them to put a disclaimer on all Math books? I'll ask the $64,000 question; just why would people decide not to believe in the theory of evolution? Could it be because of their religious faith?

QUOTE(minors @ Feb 20, 2006 -> 10:02 PM) Actually no I am not, All I am looking for is like here in Tennessee where there is a disclaimer on the book that says evolution is not a scientific fact <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's pretty embarassing for Tennessee schools. I suppose the Physics books have disclaimers on them saying E=mc^2 is not a fact???

QUOTE(minors @ Feb 20, 2006 -> 09:00 PM) All that needs to be said is that evolution is a theory and that there is also a theory of creation. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Evolution is a scientific theory just like the idea of the Earth revolving around the Sun. The problem is these people who want ID in the class room don't know what a "scientific theory" is. It's not a "guess" like some god or space aliens created all living life.

I don't get this "get rid of the death penalty because there have been cases were innocent people were put on death row" idea. Does that mean we should get rid of due process and the current court systems because that innocent person was arrested and sentenced to prison? I think serial murderers should be put to death no questions asked.

QUOTE(minors @ Feb 20, 2006 -> 06:03 PM) While I don't have an opinion on ID, I do believe that alternatives to evolution should be mentioned in science classes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I agree completly as long as it follows the scientific model and is not based on faith.

I meant to vote for 2 but accidently voted for 1. Contreras owns the Indians and Garcia is a better on the road.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Feb 19, 2006 -> 09:03 PM) I'd like to see him hit one fewer than Babe Ruth's HR record, then have pitchers simply refuse to pitch him anything the remainder of the year. He'd cry racism, and we'd all have a good laugh. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was thinking along those lines earlier, although I thought about mixing in some HBP's with those IBB's.

Cubs, White Sox, & Red Sox scouting Juan Gone

QUOTE(Cuck the Fubs @ Feb 19, 2006 -> 05:40 PM) He would be a good signing for any team if it was the minimum pay w/ incintives. Low-risk, high-reward. He's hurt, oh well, 400,000. He must be b****ing right now about turning down that 8 year 148M contract. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I get so sick of people saying that about players like Gonzalez. I can spend $1 each on the powerball and Mega Millions and win around $550 million. The odds of me winning both lotteries are probably equal to, if not greater than, Juan-Gon being healthy in a season. -
$4.25 service charge? EDIT: and another $3.50 processing charge. :rolly Well I got 2 in row 5 (could've had 4 if I stopped dicking around.) Bleacher seats in sec 163 are available too.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Feb 12, 2006 -> 10:53 AM) If there is a program that a person qualifies for and someone encourages them to sign up of it, is it the requirements that are wrong, or the person who encourages them? Colleges and Universities have entire depapartments to help students find money for college which then is paid to the University. Are they wrong? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't think it's fair to compare that example to an extreme case like Wal-Mart. In certain areas of the country, Wal-Mart comes in and forces the "Mom and Pop" shops to close down by offering much lower prices. Some individuals are forced out of their jobs and feel their only option is to join the Wal-Mart Work force. Wal-Mart then cuts their hours, gives them s***ty pay, and encourages them to go on welfare so the public, not the execs at Wal-Mart, have to pay for their health insurance. So for these extreme cases where Wal-Mart is forcing smaller shops to shut down, and cuts the working hours of the community, and encourages them to go on public welfare, I would most certainly blame the company. Of course I'm getting all this info from an independent film that slammed Wal-Mart, so there's always more to it. From google I found out Wal-Mart has changed its full time shifts from 28 hours to 34.

You sure it wasn't a typo? That doesn't make any sense.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 16, 2006 -> 10:07 PM) I can't wait for Paulie to hit a walk off on your sorry ass during a Cubs-Sox game this year. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's one hell of an assumption. You know, the Cubs actually taking us to the bottom of the ninth.

QUOTE(minors @ Feb 15, 2006 -> 01:22 PM) Typical liberal response attack the messenger and not the message. The liberal tatics of whining and complaining isn't getting it done, the evidence is in the election results. Bush might have only won by 34 but there is were far more "blue" states in play than "red" states. The '06 elections will continue this trend. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've seen this post before, and I saw a a pretty good visual representation of how pointless your post is. Courtesy of heads What's the first result from google of the word "failure?"

QUOTE(BurlyMan56 @ Feb 15, 2006 -> 01:17 PM) you get what u pay for. cheap price for cheap clothing. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly. I laugh so hard seeing people wearing those $10 leather jackets. My dumbass roommate bought a bunch of them and tried to sell them on ebay for a higher price. Good thing he kept the receipt.

Delgado almost a White Sox instead of Thome?

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Feb 14, 2006 -> 09:41 PM) I just find it interesting if that did go down how much the offseason would have changed. Damon doesnt go to NY, which probably leads to Boston getting him back, which is means Coco might stay with the Tribe. The Mets dont land Delgado, and who knows who they go out and get. The offseason would have been ALOT different for the MLB. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Now do you see how the entire MLB revolves around the Yankees? -
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 14, 2006 -> 03:40 PM) Is anyone else sitting here trying to figure out why that name sounds so funny and yet appears to be totally un-funny? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sounds like a f***ed up sexual position like a "dirty sanchez." In fact, I think I know what a "Rusty Tucker" could be, but it's too graphic to post. :puke

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Feb 13, 2006 -> 09:14 AM) I wish Sosa would sign with the Nationals. He wouldn't do much in that park, unless he found some more vitamins, and you know Frank Robinson will get in his face. It would be pretty entertaining watching that show. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My thoughts as well. I would love to see Robinson's reaction the first time Sosa hopped after flying out deep in RFK.

I heard Jerry Angelo has named him the starting QB.
