QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:27 AM) I've said it before, but there was a "tell all" news article published shortly after the election (I should try and find it). WHen McCain's people were lookign for a VP, he name was presented to them. Found it....

QUOTE (Nixon @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:38 AM) Poised is just code for she looks nice. #2 is just that she's feisty and thus it could be extended to her being a firecracker in the sack. Oh I disagree with the poised = looks nice part. Those two are not necessarily connected. And the firecracker part is a bit over the top.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:06 AM) That was a diplomatic way of saying she has boobs and I don't. Sure it sounds sexist but it's true, I've seen people come out and say it (in the same places where I saw people saying they wanted a Palin-Bachmann ticket in 2012... no really) I've said it before, but there was a "tell all" news article published shortly after the election (I should try and find it). WHen McCain's people were lookign for a VP, he name was presented to them. The 3 things they noticed about her... 1) She's poised 2) She hits back hard 3) "Wow..... just look at her" Notice NOTHING about knowledge or policy making ability, but sex appeal was #3.

He'll probably be back with the team after the All-Star break, that is my guess.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 03:12 PM) I'd be surprised if Cubs don't go after him. Depends on the price. He made $12 million last year. THe cubs cant really afford more than a few million right now.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 03:10 PM) Before anyone even asks the question, no we should not even think about going after him. Hes bad. ^^^^^^^^^^^ (had a great 2005, 2006, and 2008 though)

Did a quick stat search on him. Wow! had no idea he was 33.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 02:20 PM) This reminds me of the Jeremy Reed thing, and hopefully turns out the same way. Man, i was pissed when they traded Jeremy Reed. I was wrong. lol He's actually had an ok year with the Mets. But he's basically a .280 singles hitter.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 10:50 AM) The Pickens plan was pretty silly as originally proposed anyway. Everyone knew there'd be transmission problems until someone stepped in and built a legit "Smart grid". So, where IS a good spot to build this near transmission lines? I did a quick google search and came up with a map of the power grid and a map of wind speeds over land, and merged them: So, Kansas? edit: made a better all encompassing map.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 01:58 PM) Nuclear power is a terrible idea. And that's just speaking economics; it costs vastly more than any other form of electricity generation out there right now. I'll guarantee you Chu knows this, and he's playing politics for potential votes here. 100% politics. Republicans, for what ever reason, see nuclear power as the holy grail of energy. No nuclear, no new energy policy. Boneheaded if you ask me. but anyways. If it takes a marginal investment in nuclear to convince the few that need convincing, then so be it. In the end, wind and solar will reign.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 12:49 PM) Anyone know how the Sox are feeling about Viciedo's progress defensively? Well, 20 errors in 82 games cant be good.

Obama makes nuclear compromise to pass clean energy bill

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:30 PM) I almost wonder if that was why Hawk has hyped some of these guys up so much, is help in the selling of these guys to other teams for Kenny. Teams like the Yankee seem to do this with every prospect they end up dealing, maybe it would work for us too? If opposing scouts and GM listen to team announcers for a scouting reports, they should be fired.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:05 PM) It's amazing how Michael Jackson's genes created such a Caucasian child, not once, but three times. hmmmm..... Michael Jackson's Doctor Hedges About Childrens' Paternity HUH? To the best of your knowledge? So, there is a chance you did? If you never supplied sperm or had sex with the woman, then the answer is no.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 11:02 PM) I saw a shirt today with his picture on the front and on the back said "good luck trying to moonwalk in hell". A little too soon, as the person was wearing it at lunchtime at Woodfield Mall. oh i want one!

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:26 PM) Congressman Peter King was dead on about Michael Jackson.

Rev. Al Sharpton to Michael Jackson's kid - "Wasn't nothing strange about your daddy. It was strange what your daddy had to deal with." Really? Nothing strange about him? Sleeping in beds with boys? Pay $15 million to "hush up" a molestation accuser... not to mention all the other ones that probably happened under the table? Had a blow up doll of a cub scout in his room? There's nothing strange about him?

QUOTE (nyck170 @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 07:53 PM) Allen had and .825 OPS at Birmingham and was slugging under .500 as a first baseman. He didn't draw a walk in 15 games for Charlotte. He was wildly overrated on this site. It didnt help that Hawk practically named him the next Babe Ruth.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 07:21 PM) or flowers as a 1b. I've wondered if that is the long term plan.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 03:42 PM) hell yea bros lets do some bangin!!!1!!! GANG BANG!!!

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 03:32 PM) Paris Hilton and Megan Fox should never be in the same conversation. Ever. 3 years ago I would have agreed with you, but Fox is QUICKLY heading down Paris boulevard.
