Republican National Convention
I don't know if you could say that. I mean, 9/11 was a huge event and its something that would make a president, but who knows what he would of done had 9/11 not happened. Its too hard to say, I mean what would FDR of been without Pearl Harbor?? FDR could of went down as one of the worse presidents ever, instead, completely different, but whose to say his ideas wouldn't of worked on their own (I don't know), without the aid of a war.

Republican National Convention
But Ted Kennedy still took some shots at him. He was one of the few guys though and he didn't do it near as much as you would of expected. I know Kerry is having a rally with Edwards around midnight on Thursday and plans on making a response speach a few hours after Bush officially accepts the republican nomination.

Republican National Convention
Ya, I think they are trying to show the party as a party of many diverse opinions, but all with similar base opinions in a sense. I mean, Arnold, Rudy, and McCain all are more middle of the line republicans.

Oh fucking hell
Its because Garcia was scratched again, so Grilli pitches Wednesday and Diaz on tuesday. Plus at this point I don't mind telling him, just go out and pitch and see what happens.

Republican National Convention
Especially because McCain stayed away from it and while Rudy said some stuff on it, it wasn't like total stuff. The thing I Find garbage is, I watched the DNC and I remember FoxNews (the so called conservative station) having people even saying, this is a time for the democrats to get their say and there wasn't much negative, and CNN kept talking it up, especially Bob Dole, saying basically put, this is a time when the republicans will be quiet basically out of respect or what not.

9/11 video I found from another board...
Wow, that was interesting to say the least.

Hugh Douglas
I guess the Bears offered him a one year deal at the veteran min. Philly was a good fit for him though. He knows their system and is familiar with the players, coaching staff, and of course city.

Republican National Convention
Damn, a wore or two...is that anything like a whore Ya, I ended up taking out a bunch of wires and it still works. Of course, usually when I Try doing it I say I'm not going to let the wires go all over the place, but in the end, they still do.

Joe Borchard
It was amazing none the less, but one homer doesn't make a guys career. The only thing it shows is that he's got power potential, but thats useless if he keeps his long slow swing.

Save that rant for politics nuke...I'm sure we'll have lots of good things to discuss on the board with the convention firing up

Republican National Convention
Nah, for once their aren't an assload of wires around my tv. I got them all hidden and everything. I'm surprised I was able to do it and do a clean job of it as well. Plus I drilled some holes in the back of my tv thing and put my video game systems in the drawers and have the wires running through the back. I was pretty impressed with my work. Now I'm ready to bust out lots and lots of Madden

new employment
Heres the question...is it better then the bank...or are we going to start seeing threads of how much people suck for not having a life and renting videos on Friday and Saturday nights

Republican National Convention
We'll see how that one works out Alex. It was considered a major shock though and if him and his followers do follow through, I would consider it a huge step forward, imo. I only caught part of the convention so I can't really say much about it. Watched the late night coverage recapping it though, but since I didn't see/hear all of either speach I'm not going to comment. I was stuck fixing my tv.

I'll give the Cowboys credit, but they may of ended their season when they did that. I'm still surprised they haven't went out and looked for someone else to bring in. Henson definately has talent, but you can't thrust him out there this year and Vinny isn't going to last a full season. DBAHO, you better be happy they have that defense, cause that should at least give em a shot.

That be badass, I always loved doing it

Mike Jackson has been released
This was to open up a roster spot for a minor league call up. Off the top of my head neither Sweeney or Anderson is on the 40 man roster.

Joe Borchard
Its something we've been looking into the past day or so.

Hugh Douglas
If I recall the Bears were halfway interested in him as well.

READ THIS POST-NEW SOXTALK POSTING POLICY
All I'd like to see is when people make a post, before clicking the post button, ask, am I ripping this person or am I ripping his argument...if its the latter, go for it (assuming your not just saying thats the most assisine thing I've ever heard, but go in depth about it). I think you can sometimes learn more from disagree with someone (if the two debate back and forth) then you can if you both agree (although everyone should agree with me ). Anyway, this isn't a look what you said, your gone. Soxtalk is and always will be built with freedoms of posting, we just don't see where personal attacks should be a part of those freedoms. But everything else, other then racism and what not is fair game.

Knights are Staying Put
I know their have been some rumors, so I just want to say the Knights will be staying in Charlotte. While I wish Charlotte's stadium wasn't a bandbox, I for one am happy that they will stay there. The Knights organization is full of quality individuals and I'm glad that the Sox are still going to be affiliated with them. The player development contract extends to the 2006 season. I'll put up something on FS about this after my night class.

Spidale
David Eckstein would be a good comparison, of course he has a heck of a lot more speed then Eck.
