Definitely. Rollie Fingers one is my favorite. They could have chosen a better one for the sox, but no complaints. At least we have a shirt.

figured. I used to be hip.

Nike Hair-Itage Tshirts As spring training winds down and real news pops up, I thought i'd make a post that's debatable for the forum. Anyway I'm a big fan of these tshirts. Anyone else buy one? Google said it was Ozzie Guillen.

Watching it again, the guy I thought was mounty was just someone wearing a red jacket and a wide-brim tan hat. the mounty look is in.

Yes but it needs to slow down the bulls*** patent suits being used against web startups. Twitter just got sued because somebody patented "a medium for which celebrities can communicate with each other" and they granted it. Software patents have been given out like candy and it's hurt the startups who have incredibly vague patents used against them. Even if it gets thrown out it's a waste of resources.

Britain is also redoing patent law.

well it's clear that chico probably wouldn't have asked for much concessions on pensions.

I don't know, I bet Pujols brings in $30 mil for the cards in revenue.

Texas dems did that too about 8 years ago.

On BBC radio just now they reported that soldiers in tripoli told them that Qaddafi is holding their families in barracks as a way of forcing them to carry out their orders.

I really don't like blaming the victim...but really? What the hell are you doing there?

BBC has reports that Qaddafi has ordered the police to burn the dead bodies so they cannot be identified. We, of course, should support this however, because as Kap brings up, this might be lead to something worse. Than that. Like Iran having ships go through.

pedicures are recommended for those with diabetes.

what's up with airline food?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 21, 2011 -> 09:07 AM) There are actually 3 significant drop-offs, with Kansas City to Chicago being by far the smallest. The drop-off from Texas to New York is 59 points, the aforementioned "small" 27 point drop-off from KC to Chicago, and then a monstrosity of an 81 point drop-off from LAA to Seattle. I don't think these drop-offs are exactly coincidental in nature either. In the case of the first 4 teams, they all had mostly full-time DHs - Ortiz, Scott, Thome, and Guerrero. The next set - New York, Cleveland, and Kansas City - each had better players DHing, but lost some time for whatever reason, and also used it to give other players games off. The next 6 teams shuffled the DH position to give players days off and try to work matchups, and it would appear as though that concept simply does not work. And then the final group in Seattle just shows total offensive ineptitude. In summation, I think the Sox are very, very smart in going with a full-time DH. It will add to the overall effectiveness of the lineup and gives them an advantage over quite a few teams (and hopefully the Twins too...Thome has to fall off at some point, doesn't he?) Great post wite

Take heed top 40 rap artists lovers. **couch** Eminem and Jay Z **cough** This is what I'm talking about. i love the line 'talk to my therapist tell him all your problems he's f***in awesome at listening" for some reason that line cracks me up.

Very happy this caught a second wind.

I really can't wait for the high speed train to STL.
