Our Bullpen
The Sox could easily be 8-1 right now, if not for the suspect bullpen. They have blown leads in the 2 of the last 3 wins as well.

Bush finally gets one right!
He HAS been a supporter, probably it's staunchest supporter since Raegan, but, he only supports up to a point. For example, when he criticizes Israel for assassinating Yassin, and other targeted assassinations, he is not supporting Israel, especially when "he" did the same thing with Hussein's sons. When he makes statements like, The Security Fence is an impediment to peace, he is not supporting Israel. When he cozies up to the Saudis, he is not being supportive of Israel. I think Bush supports Israel to appease the Christian Right, and to try to woo the Jewish vote.

Bush finally gets one right!
Israel is an important issue to me; probably the most important one. But, it's not the only issue. I am pro-choice and pro-environment. Bush has screwed up the economy, his foreign relations are a joke, he lied about WMD re. Iraq. I will be voting for Kerry; I have confidence that he is the better candidate, and will do alright by Israel.

Why the heck were we so pessimistic?
"We" NEED Kelly Wunsch back! BTW..."we" need to start sitting Valentin against lefties, OR, flip-flop him and Rowand in the batting order vs lefties.

Why the heck were we so pessimistic?
I was pessimistic cuz I though t our bullpen would suck. Guess what? Our bullpen DOES suck! Koch, Shingo, Jackson...are you gonna tell me that this is the best that we can get?!?

Thomas opens his yap again.
I agree. I believe that once an athlete signs a contract, he should honor it. All things being equal, and for whatever reason(s), I believe Thomas should be making more money. If he had known how to keep his foot out of his mouth, he could've "owned" Chicago. Bad p.r., bad people skills.

How many of you have actually fantasized about being a porn star? Just curious.

Thomas opens his yap again.
The ONLY player I can ever recall giving back money after a poor season(s) was when Bobby Orr did it when he signed with the Hawks late in his career. (Are you reading this, Scottie Pippen?)

Thomas opens his yap again.
Over a 14+ year career with the Sox... 29 hrs per year 94 rbi .309 lifetime b.a. .567 slugging pct. .995 o.p.s. Not bad. Worth a helluva lot more than $9 mill per in today's market.

Bush finally gets one right!
By agreeing with Ariel Sharon's plan of unilateral withdrwal from Gaza, and denying the "Palestinian refugees" the "Right of Return", Bush showed that even he can get something right. Bush also said that the "Security Fence" is legal, and a necessary measure to prevent terrorist attacks. As much as it pains me to say so, The Prez should be commended for these decisions.

Thomas opens his yap again.
With the numbers Frank puts up (i.e last season), he is grossly UNDERPAID. Show me how many players put up 40+ hrs, and 130+ rbi, every year, and don't make $10+ million!

Do the Mets still want this piece of crap, Koch???

Sick of the Patriot Act: Profile Foreigners
I know that if I was travelling on a plane, I'd be a helluva lot more worried about the Arab-looking people on the plane than the little ol' grandma or the US military troop(s)!

Sick of the Patriot Act: Profile Foreigners
I don't understand why the "civil libertarians" are so up in arms against a NAtional ID card. If an individual has nothing to hide, why worry about registering?

I'm talking worldwide...not just here in the US.

Janet blamed for Lingerie Ban
It's the G-d damned Bush Administration with all this censorship bulls***. I'd would rather get kicked in the groin once a day for the next 4 years, than have Bush reelected for another term.

Sick of the Patriot Act: Profile Foreigners
Once again Juggernaut I cannot disagree with you more. I work for Homeland Security...we always get these little "speeches" about how it's wrong to profile; it's not "politically correct". What it is, is bullcrap! If you look at 95+% of the terrorist acts perpetrated in the last 10 years, they were done by 18-35 year old males of Arab (Muslim) descent. So, what do we, at DHS do? Instead of barring these people from the US, we make them register; they give us fingerprints and photographs, and tell us (allegedly) where they are going to be in the US and for how long. Once they're in, they can go, do, say whatever the hell they want. It's a f***ed up system.
