QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 03:40 PM) It was a joke, but that is what Levine does. The report is exactly what I stated in the first post of this thread. Levine thinks that the Sox could put together the best package for Tejada. How many times did you edit the first post to make it "right"?

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 03:37 PM) I have no idea what he was mumbling. All he seems to do is get on the air and start telling Jew jokes. So basically, you started a bulls*** thread? "Sox interested in Tejada" based on Levine saying that they could give the best package for him? I should toast your ass for this.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) Joey has dibs. Ahh dibs. Only cause he's here first. It's going to be that bowling ball effect on the dibs deal... no... she's MINE, no she's MINE!, no she's MINE!! Damn, Mike, it's already started.

I won the regular season in my league - playoffs start this week. And our league is pretty darn competetive. I hope I can win the playoffs. That would rock.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Dec 14, 2005 -> 02:37 PM) Thank God. Keep passing on our prayers and well wishes to everyone!!!! Madison still needs the arranged marriage If we have a boy - you know - it would really suck having you all as in-laws.

Nothing else matters in life when you see something like this. Seriously.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 08:36 PM) I feel so honored with your sig No, I watched a movie called "The Life of David Gale" which came out a couple years ago, and I just made an honest assessment of what I believe. It's three fold really: 1) I understand that many people desire justice via the death of the instigator of the crime, therefore I understand why the state upholds the act of execution. 2) I personally feel that if unborn babies are to be deemed sacred, we should probably view all life as sacred. God will be the one to determine our ultimate outcome, so leave the individual locked up forever. I do not believe in parole for murderers. 3) If someone touched miss PA or one of my kids or family members, I'd seek justice too. #1 and #2 would have to do battle in my heart in my mind. When things become personal it's very, very difficult to seperate the emotions and desire for justice from what I think is right. My point for arguing about what LCR had to say is that most of these wackos like borg, camus, etc make their living off of things that seem to make sense on the initial level, but utlimately if you see through the deception and skewed thinking, then you see that they're, well, morons You and I agree 100% on this issue. I don't think I could separate it if it were my situation, but it would be wrong of me.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 08:19 PM) I can't play because I don't want to throw away 20 years worth of recovery. That's one way of looking at it. Douche.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) I don't care to play the religion game. But I was hoping that somebody who does like to do so could reconcile for me the difference in how Christians are called act toward the "least of His brothers" and what is actually advocated by the pro-capital punishment "Christians." I can't play, cause I'm against it.

HEY PALEHOSEFAN, GET TO WORK!

I think you all can see that I pretty much come down against the death penalty. And against abortion. But for war in times when it's called for. So, LCR, I got blood on my hands, too, eh? Two out of three ain't bad.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 07:04 PM) Okay, so an atomic bomb detonates inside of Israel. The world reacts, the news presses jump at it. Panic sets in. Then 10 minutes later a video of a masked man speaking Farsi with a picture of the flag of Palestine calling for Jihad and that the will of Allah has been commited and says they are the Jihad Warriors of the World and they are alligned with Al Queda. So do you think that after we obliterate Iran, that a lot of people might get miffed that we jumped too soon. That it could of been terrrorists. Maybe they got their weapons from North Korea, or from the black market from "missing" nukes in the former Soviet Union. Who knows. But before we take retalitory action there would have to be proof beyond a worlds reasonable doubt. Remember also this is not an attack on the US. So technically how are we justified to respond with nukes on Iran. It can become cloudy. An attack on Isreal *IS* an attack on the US according to agreements in place and well understood throughout the world.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 06:57 PM) Like Ive said a million times already. If we gave murder 1 and other serious violent crimes a manditory death sentence and then had the balls to carry out sentencing in a timely fashion there would be a deterrent factor. ok, but that's not how it works. It takes 10 years or more most of the time to get through the "system". How about, we just behead these son's a b****es who shoot people on the head, Al Zarqawi style. How about, we just cut the dicks off the guys who rape women? While we're at it, let's do all this on public TV, right away, because after all, it's all about JUSTICE. And then, what about those cases where the "system" is wrong? That doesn't matter, because justice has been served. Ugh. We're pretty much savages.

Let me ask this. Do you soxtalkers think that murders will RISE if we got rid of the death penalty? Or to say it another way - how much of a deterrent is the death penalty? I personally think it's NOT a deterrent at all. If you're crazy enough to kill someone, then you're crazy enough to not give a crap if you die. Therefore, the death penalty isn't doing anything to keep crime down, so why sanction government killing?

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 06:26 PM) *insert traditional "clicking off" joke here* Ohhh Booooooooo. That's not what I meant.

QUOTE(mreye @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 06:02 PM) You know, you had a good arguement until you went this route. Don't be like them and lump everyone on the "other side" together. I agree. I think I said that a few posts up. Go Jesus Team.

Wow. This thread just did an about face. At least most have a sense of humor.

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 05:46 PM) Cause that would be, like, really offensive? Yeah. Too bad, the "other side" doesn't have a vulgarity regulator. Well, of course they do. They just choose not to employ it cause they don't have to here. And, ya know, considering that females other than other posters and maybe, say, Rosa Parks, are usually referred to around here only as body parts (and that's when guys are being nice!) ..... Well, Penis-in-Chief just seems like poetic justice to me. Move over Cheney, the real Dick is in the (White) House. I'm not going down this path much more other then to say, now you're the moral compass of soxtalk? If Nuke wants to look stupid in saying that blankety blankety blank blank got what he deserved, he looks stupid to some. If you want to run around calling our president Penis-In-Chief, fine. I see your point, but then you just go down to their level, and then you're not the moral compass you think you are. I'll bow out now, I don't think I have to say anymore... Penis-In-Chief away. Oh... one other thing... I personally don't like the female drooling here either, for the record. But it's here and I can click off just as fast as I click on it.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 05:09 PM) it's a toasty 78 degrees in my house. I called in sick just to enjoy six hot showers today and dance naked around my warm, warm place. Just be sure that Miss PA doesn't see you or the engagement's off.

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 05:14 PM) I believe that’s a false dichotomy. And it wasn’t what I was saying at all. Making one big thread in no way addressed a basic lack of civility with constant vulgarity for vulgarity’s sake. But at any rate, in this instance I was referring to the die motherf***er thread which was closed, and then seemed to be starting right back up again here. Trying to get into the spirit of things, I've been thinking about how I could join in the name calling in a limited fashion without going overboard. I'm thinking of referring to President Bush as Penis (I got the idea from the thread title calling the governor of Illinois a dick). Or maybe Penis-in-Chief. I feel it allows me to participate in the nastiness in a limited way, while still maintaining some decorum. What do you think? It just doesn't seem fair that one side should have all the fun. And don't be laughing your ass off; you'll need it some day. I see the difference. Unfortunately, this happens all over soxtalk and not just in this forum. And, we don't want to see the Penis-In-Chief named Bush... so please don't start the Penis-In-Chief thing. Please. /looks to check and see if I have a rear still.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) As the the de facto leader of the Pissy People, I still think it's a lot better this way. Readers can ignore entire threads that either don't interest them or anger them, and you don't have to wade through two dozen topics to follow a single thread topic. We need a pissy people smilie and name it the FlaSoxxJim smilie. I don't disagree... which is why I was pretty quick to open it back up after reviewing it all. It's better to voice your opinion, but much like Palehose, sometimes you see the same things in 10 different threads. That was more the intent of the "one thread" idea... but it doesn't work around here and that's fine.

I don't think I've been there yet.

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Dec 13, 2005 -> 03:42 PM) As long as the site revels in this sort of thing, I don’t understand why it isn’t possible to have everyone who’s contribution to this topic consists of repeating in post after post - f***, and s***, and scumbag and die motherf***er Tookie and let’s kill everyone - quarantined in one thread to talk amongst themselves. That way it won’t pollute every thread. Fair enough? LMAO. We tried that already. It was called the "politics thread for the week" and lots of people got pissy about it because they couldn't b**** in every single thread. So, now, we just get to b**** in every thread we deem appropriate about any subject. It's the cool soxtalk SLaP way, er the cool CRaP way, depending on your take.

I appreciate the info. I have a software installed on my PC, but it splits everything, and I hate that.
