OK, everyone has their point, and they are all good ones. Let's move on now, shall we? Me included.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:04 PM) Niceeeeeeeeeeeeee post. I can't believe people are actually aruging this. :headshake I Agree, Addison. And I won't argue it anymore. STFU and play the game. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

And everyone from these other teams you're talking about would tell us to STFU and win out, and that's all that matters. Guess what? It is. They ALL control their own destiny. So, STFU and play ball. Since when did any person from the northeast give a flying f*** what someone from Chicago thinks? Never. I didn't think so. They control their own destinies. STFU, Yankees and Boston and go win out.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) f*** the red sox and their fans. They are constantly whining. All they have to do is go out and beat the yankees, their playoff hopes are in their hands, not ours. DING. Winnar. I think I said the same thing about 3 posts up.

I think we have a better chance of winning tonight with this lineup then our "regulars". What does that say?

To all Red Sox fans. STFU and just win. It doesn't matter if you win. Toodles.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 07:32 PM) Actually it's not entirely a wild assumption...I've at least visited 1 spot up in the Mojave that was a full lake about 100 ka. It was filled by the Mojave river, which had a much higher flow rate at the time than it currently does. I just don't know when the rainfall values started to change. Hehehehe. COME ON! Get with it and figure it out!

QUOTE(WinningUgly85 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 06:41 PM) I made a movie for the sox but I don't know how to post it on the web. email it to me - put in the subject line soxtalk video rhull@4sportspage.com it will go on the soxtalk domain

Wow. Good stuff.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 07:01 PM) MY problem is for the employees. What obligation the employer have to protect its workers if it promotes an enviornment that isn't healthy? Any plants where you are surrounded by hazardous materials, OSHA requires that reasonable protections be in place. For example a nuclear power plant can't just send someone into the reactor core without a protective suit, a steal mill has to give breathing mechanisms to people who work in areas where coal dust is prevelent... etc. Why doesn't OSHA force these kind of institutions protect waiters/resses, bartenders etc, from being exposed to the conditions that cause lung cancer? Easy, they are on the lowest end of the pay scale, and don't have union protection to fight for them. There is no reason that these people don't deserve the same clean work enviornment as anyone else. :rolly Environmental hippy.

Ok, so if there are so many people like you out there you can't stand second hand smoke, why in the world ain't some super smart rich ass starting a trendy smoke free bar? Oh, because the government will take care of that for us. Nevermind.

The Rally Crede will stay up until next summer if they keep winning.

I would MUCH rather play EITHER NYY or BOS then ANA right now. ANA is going to be well rested, and I can also say that Texas can't beat ANA out of a wet paper sack. Texas has been ANA's b**** all year.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 05:01 PM) The Commie thinking people are generally the smokers who think thier rights are being infringed by banning smoking in bars. There will always be people like that. I feel that by being forced to inhale someone elses smoke in a bar that my rights are also being infringed, but I guess thats hard to explain to the McCarthy-ist smokers. Then don't go in. It's your choice as a consumer. Why should we be MADE BY OUR GOVERNMENT to do this?

QUOTE(BDavisFutureHOF @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 04:53 PM) Anyone know where I can get a cheap rental car -- preferably a suv? I already looked at the big guys but they are pretty expensive If you don't need it today, hotwire it (the website, don't steal it ), or priceline.com it.

Oh and by the way. I don't have anything against smokers or non-smokers. The issue, IMO, is bigger then that.

This to me, at the heart of it all, is a property rights issue. Yet another government "law" that takes away our individual freedoms. If a bar owner chooses to have smoking, the non-smokers can choose to not patronize that bar. A smart entrepenuer can start a "smoke-free" bar and market accordingly. But no. Our government makes the decisions for us.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:20 PM) All I have to say is when is the house warming party? That will be the plushiest party of all time.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:11 PM) Innocent until proven guilty. That's what America stands for. You should try to remember that. I agree with that, but I also don't think you just haul tail and run from the issue because there doesn't appear to be evidence. You need to investigate these claims, not bury your head in the sand and scream LA LA LA, nothing here!

You know, what would happen to the "Rex Kickass Seal of Approval" if you went back to winodj? "Winodj Seal of Approval" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:31 PM) I smell a love connection That should be post of the month material, but 75% of the people wouldn't get it.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:14 PM) Brought a whole bunch of them to my eye. Damn, that is a fine post. I suggest we all raise a glass this weekend, or right before the Tuesday game, for smalls2598's Dad, and anybody else who stuck with for all these years but is not around to see it now. oh, but they ARE. And maybe by their help, we'll get to see something on earth that they didn't get to. We can all hope, eh?

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 03:47 AM) Nah, this is my first time and my only name. And I can only be an honorary dude, I believe. I'm of the female persuasion. Oh, sorry, dudette, er something.

For all the joking and crap we have around here, this might just be the thread of the year. May we have a LOT more memories made in October.
