Brett Lawrie back in MLB with brewers
He's always been a whackadoodle. Not a bad guy just odd. He's that kid from high school gym class that would dive on the gym floor for a volleyball dig and get up yelling and cheering.

Working at Balmoral race track while in college, the worst job was the horse meat wagon. Getting the lame horses off the track so the vet could put them down then hauling the dead horse away felt like beating a dead horse for far too long.

Looking at those salaries, how can people complain that free agency is unfair.

I don't see it changing then unless there is a salary floor put in to artificially raise salaries, similar to the arbitration process now.

MLBPA proposals
I think it was whitey Herzog who did this a lot with Todd worrell, I think. He would bring in a lefty and send worrell to RF for that hitter.

Some good coaches. Mike martz, Steve Spurrier, Rick Neuheisel. Did a smart thing by trying to get players, especially QBs to play near their college towns. May create local interest. Bill Polian is one of the people to create and run the league.

This is the oddest bidding war ever. Imagine if both teams were in a room. Nationals: I'll match any bid Phillies: I'll match any bid Nationals: so bid Phillies: you bid Nationals: no you Phillies: you first It's an SNL skit.

Relationship Advice Thread
I would agree this is the best route. Stick to the first decision as long ss possible, if it doesn't happen discuss the adoption. You can't force it either esppecially in light of the type of relationship here. The big question to ask is did she change her mind about the abortion because she wants to raise the kid or just because she doesn't like the idea of the procedure. That will Safeway into the adoption talk.

It is insurance but its referred to as re-insurance. Most of the bigger insurance companies have re-insurance divisions.

It's called re-insurance when the primary insurance company insures their own policy with another company to spread the risk out.

I was referring to not just the series but getting there. They don't get there without him and can't win it if they aren't there.
