QUOTE(Soxy @ Nov 13, 2006 -> 01:17 PM) Mary wasn't immaculately conceived according to traditional Christian beliefs, Jesus was. Although Mary DID immaculately conceive. How do you think you did on the its/it's one? I have absolutely no doubt I got it right. My grammar sucks but shockingly I typically do very good on verbal portions of standardized tests. I typically know the rules, but just don't follow them in my day to day typing. Its = it is It's = posessive

For some reason I still don't think Jose Contreras has a no trade this year, but I know Gene has posted otherwise (and usually he's right 99.9% of the time on stuff like that).

Smarties. I didn't even know what a hanging modifier was let alone how to look for it. 74% for me. I think I screwed up the emaculate conception (isn't it Mary???), the hanging modifier and I honestly don't know what the other one I missed was.

Interesting. I was hoping the Angels would win. They were apparently pretty big players in the sweepstakes.

I know a lot of larger companies are switching to PTO which combines your sick days with vacation days and you can kind of take them whenever. I'm pretty stoked cause I get 23 PTO, 8 holidays, plus 4 office holidays (which are chosen by the top management our individual company locations). And we are encouraged to use every single one of those days throughout the year.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 09:10 PM) Tillman had a huge game, though it's unlikely that he'll actually recieve any props from the local media/Bears fans for his outstanding performance today. He thrives in games when he goes against a physical WR. We just need to have coaches smart enough to make sure they put Vasher on the quicker guys or if Tillman is on a speed guy make sure you give him safety help.

It be nice if the Jays had interest in Josh Fields and one of our aging starters.

Wow...dirty ass hit on Houshmazada. He has to be concussed. Big penalty by the Chargers.

They had an episode on Wednesday this week but its on Thursdays still.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 12:55 PM) Thank god you put this is your sentence.. I think what makes him the best is how great he is all around (not only is he great around the goaline, not only can he break big runs at any point and take it to the house, but he is also a top notch receiver out of the backfield). Oh Marshall Faulk had a couple years where he was ridiculous himself (in the all around stage).

QUOTE(Brian @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 12:52 PM) Easily the best in the NFL. Sorry LJ. Indy wins by 1. A-Train with another good game. Sucks he can't find a team to make him their #1. I don't think it was ever debatable aside from a few stupid fantasy league people that picked LJ. LT is the best running back in NFL history (as of this stage of anyone's carees). I have no idea how long he'll stay on top of his game or if he'll suffer a serious injury or anything like that but he is the best I've ever seen. Bhahaaa....TJ Houshmanada drops a first down pass and the Bengals have to punt.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 12:40 PM) If we can sign Walker? HELL YEAH! The Red Sox wouldn't go for that, though. Red Sox would be dump not to make that trade. Coco had a poor year from them last year. That said I wouldn't mind picking up Coco...but only if the Sox are able to get someone good to replace Neal. What if we signed Clemens to a one year deal...dealt Garcia for prospects...dealt Buehrle for Michael Young. Clemens enters the rotation along with Bmac, we get Young...and we get some good prospects for Garcia. Or say Jason Schmidt's agent calls and says he will take a 3yr 30-36 mill deal with the Sox. At that moment we have 2 good offers for Buehrle/Garcia and could swing them to other teams for prospects and Michael Young and than have a starter like Schmidt signed for a couple more seasons (since Buehrle/Garcia are potentially gone). We clear some salary...add a front line starter to replace one of the one's we lose...add a bat like Young...add prospects.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 12:17 PM) Clemens or not, I don't think we'll come as close to 3M in 07 as we did this year. I expect a bit of a dip. You'll be wrong. Just like everyone laughed at me when i said we'd get 2.8 (than right around opening day people started believing my prediction)...than they blew past it.

Wow...LT is amazing. Threw the guy off him on the facemask to get a TD...than they get a sack and recover a fumble on the first offensive play following the kickoff and LT bursts in for another one. 4 Td's for LT and he's 2 away from being the fastest to 100.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Nov 12, 2006 -> 12:04 PM) not me.... hes gonna cost 15+ million, will probably only make 25-ish starts, only go 5-6 per start....yeah, hell draw attendance, but i dont think in the end its worth it for the kind of money the sox will have to pay Umm....one of the best pitchers in baseball when he's on the mound. Ya, I'm all over that. Plus its just a one year deal and financially there are so many rewards to signing him (all the national exposure....the jersey sales...would help make it almost a lock for 3 million in attendance, barring a complete collapse by the Sox). The rotation needs help, if you could move someone like Garcia or Buehrle (who are likely gone in a year) and than sign someone like Clemens to 1 year (yes for more money but its just a year) all while getting two top prosspects (in Buehrle's case I say three) that can help position you for the future. Basically the way I see it you replace the guy you trade all while getting a couple top prospects that will help ya a year down the road. Not that I think Clemens will come...although we could have had him instead of Navarro.

YESSS....TD Chargers and its now 28-21, Bengals may blow this one afterall. Oh and the Titans were whooping the Ravens last I saw.

I'd be giddy if we got Clemens for a year. I love Roger and he would guarantee sellouts every 5 games.

So, Wisconsin should have lost. If Iowa had any WR's we'd probably be a 2 loss team (only losses to OSU and Michigan). We played hard yet lost. Definately a tough season but they got some legit talent coming in but wow it sucked we couldn't have given Tate some play-makers during his senior year. Wiscy's QB who played for Stocco looked damn good cause without him you guys get demolished (since they had zero rushing game).

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 09:11 PM) Gage never went to Riverside, but I'm sure he knows they suck, and hard. Next up, Louisiana Monroe, the FIGHTIN Warhawks. Duh...Fullerton's basketball team is better than Riversides...therefore....Fullerton > ISU Hawkeyes destroyed Buena Vista in there final preseason game.

Ya...Borat was freaking brilliant.

QUOTE(T R U @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 05:30 PM) Sam Houston State returned pretty much everything, I am callin the upset of Tech tomorrow and an elite 8 cinderella story come the tourny.. book it

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 06:30 AM) Yay, ISU opens up tonight, against thei UC-Riverside Fightin' Gages.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 11:30 AM) Why is Crabman in the witness protection program? Do you think we will find out???

The man can flat rake. Sure they gave up a good pitching prospect but last I looked the Tigers have a ton of those and needed that middle of the order bat. They got exactly that in Sheff. He may whine and complain from time to time but when on the field he always produces at an All Star level. Plus he didn't really have any problems in Florida en route to winning the world series with Leyland/Dombrowski. This seems like one of those win/win trades.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 02:29 PM) I could just seem them doing a presentation before Game 1 of Opening Day. I could be wrong. They did that with Vladdy in Anaheim (also they do the same with gold gloves) so yeah there will be some sort of ceremony. QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Nov 10, 2006 -> 03:07 PM) I've always been of the belief awards should go to the most deserving candidate. Obvious enough, but often people are blinded by homerism and insist their team's players should receive everything. However, this is just sweet justice. Even though Rodriguez did hold an advantage to Crede in about every offensive category. For the fact it's Alex Rodriguez I'm less inclined to care. One less award on his mantle. Now, watch Crede's win set off a storm of controversy. No one does this to a Yankee. Restructuring of the entire damn system may occur. Boras is gonna be pretty excited over this award.
