Steve Bartman's my idol

I am thinking about a career change, and might buy a bar. Do any of you (or your families) own a bar? If so, please advise me on pros and cons or bar ownership.

Check it out, Kapkomet and I finally agree on something!

How about Corey Patterson? :puke

Marte for Blalock??? I'm in!!! Too bad Texas isn't that stupid...maybe if Bush still owned the team.

Myers was great in Austin Powers, but, can he pitch?

Please enroll me in the Frank Thomas Fan Club! 35

G-d Bless!

Clark is a piece of crap!!!

Hmmm...50 Cent and Bush, "great" minds think alike?!

I wish I was retired...I HATE WORK!

If having the "haves" help out the "have-nots" is Socialism, then I guess I'm a Socialist. (As opposed to being a selfish, greedy "Capitalist").

With re. Steinbrenner...you have to give the guy credit. He spends to give his team it's best chance of winning. Obviously the results haven't been so great over the past few years, but, as an owner, I can't see how you could find anyone better. He wants to win, and backs up his desire with $$$!

When Clinton was in Office, I got regular cost of living increases every year (I am a Government employee), that hasn't happenned during the Bush presidency. That's just 1 example.

True...but the current administration has wasted billions of dollars on "pork", and the only people who have benefitted financially during the Bush years have been the wealthy. (I sure as Hell haven't benefitted!)

One word answer...NEED. Poor people need the money and opportunities...the wealthy don't NEED, they want.

I'd put Thome 4th, righty-lefty-righty.

I see that Jerry Reinsdorf voted in this poll!

I hope you're right! I'd also like to see the Sox swing a deal for Durazo from the A's...I want to see a stronger bench in 2006.

Why should wealthy people who don't need the money get tax refunds?

He inherited a federal surplus of SEVERAL billion dollars, and turned that into a deficit of SEVERAL billion dollars.

Isn't Apu on the "lifetime ban" list with my brother? HAPPY BIRTHDAY (anyway!).

My family used to spend our Summers in Ely, Minnesota, fishing on the Canadian side of the border. We stopped going there when they outlawed the use of motor boats in Canadian waters (in that region). We last went to Crow Duck Lake near Kenora (Winnepeg), the fishing was outstanding, most of the anglers "catch-and-release" so the lakes stay plentiful. This year...Bimidji, Minnesota in the Spring.

Does anyone here fish? Fresh water? Salt water? Where?

I agree...but they will be better (IF they make the deals).

I'll take Giambi, Cano, Jeter and A-Rod!
