Alex Rodriguez tested postive for steroids in 2003; Admits It
QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Feb 7, 2009 -> 12:35 PM) Really? What type of morals did you grow up with? Means justify ends - all I'm saying. If it helps us win, I'm all for it.

IF it turned out the entire 05 team was on PEDs, would it change your opinion of them? Who cares if it helps your team win - this is why cheating is okay and should be acceptable. I wish our team cheated more if it meant more championships.

I feel bad for the guy. The media seems out to get him, no? As a side note, I think all steroids and PEDs should be legal - they make the game better.

2009 Free Agent Tracker
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 5, 2009 -> 09:04 AM) I dunno, LoDuca isn't just a former roider, he's not a guy like Brian Roberts who maybe did it for a short time (even I don't want Roberts in part for that reason), LoDuca was one of the ringleaders/distributors/heavy, heavy users. Not only is he past his prime and such, but there's every reason to think that what he was last year could be his peak, because presumably he's way off of the hard stuff. I can't imagine him being a good fit for really any team in the clubhouse, he's among the worst on the Mitchell list, probably helped get plenty of others including Gagne on the stuff, and there's no reason to expect him to improve from last year's #s. I still don't see why it should be something we should hold against him. Doesn't steroids mean he had a greater desire to win than those that didn't use them?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Feb 4, 2009 -> 12:35 AM) At least the vampires were hot in Van Helsing! Star Trek remake conjures up images of the Dumb and Dumber remake with younger actors....or Dukes of Hazzard. I think Starship Troopers even beats those. It looks like the Starsky and Hutch remake. I mean, the story might be okay, but with those ridiculous 60s-era costumes? LAAAAAAAAAAAAAME!

According to Biden, it is patriotic to pay taxes.
Clearly, the vetting process did not work the way it was supposed to - but considering how fast the transition happens, what are you gonna do? Note: the Left are not giving passes on this stuff. I saw Rachel Maddow call Obama out a few days ago. (And to Alpha, about his original post: Paying taxes IS patriotic. Doesnt mean if you f*** up, you're not patriotic. Saluting the flag is patriotic, but it doesn't mean that if you don't salute the flag, you're not patriotic.) What did Obama say about using patriotism as a bludgeon?

2nd half & playoffs, the Sox had barely any speed in 05. And no, Timo doesn't count.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 3, 2009 -> 08:33 AM) They've been speaking with his agent for sure though, its a fact. Whether or not this was a recent conversation is outside of my knowledge. And as some other folks on here know, they have also been talking to another slugger's agent as well. Does this slugger have crazy dreadlocks?

Alexei did earn his shot, but let's not forget there were a ton of us who thought he'd have a better chance at getting regular at-bats at AAA than in the bigs.

Kurkjian on the AL Central
QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 27, 2009 -> 07:29 PM) The Twins have the biggest home field advantage in baseball, basically. However, in the playoffs, they usually are up against teams with better records and thus are playing more road games than home games. Their postseason failures probably have a lot to do with that fact. It definitely makes one wonder what they'll do in 2010 when their new stadium is done considering it's outdoors and they're built for the carpet.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jan 26, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) I liked when Randy said "I have something" and the guy yelled "HERPES!!!!" That's what happens when your delivery is as slow and boring as Orton's is. Man is that guy a charisma black hole.

Official Squared Circle Thread
QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 26, 2009 -> 08:34 AM) I don't want Taker vs. Show at Mania or HBK/JBL there. I would like HBK vs. Taker to be honest. They teased it in a backstage segment. Like it or not, that's what they're building to. HBK/Taker was not a tease - it was "the conscience of the WWE" getting Shawn on the right track.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 26, 2009 -> 12:42 AM) Mickey Rourke has been signed to appear at WrestleMania. Rumor is he may have a match against Chris Jericho. I really hope to Foley that they don't make Jericho job to him - that would blow and suck. I think they're a bunch of idiots if they put him in a match. An appearance would be nice, but boy, that movie isn't very kind to the industry.
