QUOTE(hitlesswonder @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 10:29 AM) If Rowand were cheap, then fine -- go ahead and bring him back. But I really don't think he's much more than a marginal improvement over Anderson. And if takes a pitcher off the major league roster to get him, it's a bad trade. Summed up nicely.

Al seems a bit jealous if you ask me.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 09:31 AM) I understand that pretty well. I have just heard stuff like that held up as evidence when it fits agendas, and dismissed when it doesn't. Heck I heard Katrina mentioned as proof of global warming, as if we had never had a category 3 hurricane hit the US before. As long as the system is consistant, I don't mind. Now if in the year 2015 there were about 20 hurricanes per season then I think we can agree that there is an upward trend.

QUOTE(max power @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 09:29 AM) At least he has proven himself to be mediocre. He is better than any other backup we have in CF defensively. Its a small upgrade that is worth a small price. We know his ceiling and it isn't very high.

This would make little sense to me. Another mediocre outfielder? Why?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 09:17 AM) My personal favorite was PETA chiming in that Gore couldn't be a real "enviornmentalist" while eating meat.I agree. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 09:17 AM) The high number of hurricanes in 2005 was sited as proof of global warming, was that supposed to convince me? There are always going to be fluctuations but a comparison from 1 year to the next isn't considered a good sample size. You know that. Just look at the DJIA over the past 30 years. The trend is that it is rising but there are years here and there that are down.

QUOTE(Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 13, 2007 -> 09:02 AM) We gotta start this discussion back up. Never enough bashing on Gore for me. This article pretty much sums up my view of the whole global warming thing. Yes there is a problem that needs to be addressed. But it's not happening tomorrow. He's a fear mongeror, just like Bush/Cheney/Rumsfield were to the left a few years ago. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/13/science/...and&emc=rss So statements like the one below are supposed to dissuade me? He's comparing one summer to the next. What a joke.

Hooray

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 12, 2007 -> 04:15 PM) JD gets to 2nd base with 0 outs, Crede, Mack, and Hall up, and JD ends the inning sitting at 2nd base. Situational hitting at its best. I can't wait to see this crap in August.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Mar 12, 2007 -> 03:26 PM) Our minor league pitchers give up a ton of runs, however I dont remember our starters just getting torched time and time again. Don't you remember? That post season run in '05 has taken its toll. Apparently it takes several years to recover from something like that.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 12, 2007 -> 02:25 PM) I actually agree with you on this one. While Fox is a bad joke as a news channel, the reality is a certain portion of the population sees them as a significant news source. A certain portion of the population thinks Access Hollywood is a significant news source.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 12, 2007 -> 02:13 PM) That and the hammer and sickle hanging in his locker. I believe he was also accused of molesting priests when he was an alter boy.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Mar 11, 2007 -> 12:28 PM) I've always been a big fan of Matt Thornton. Me too. I was rooting for him in his 3rd grade spelling bee.

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Mar 9, 2007 -> 12:32 PM) In other news, Gingrich admitted this week that he was having an affair while attempting to get Clinton kicked out of office regarding the fury over his sex scandal. And how many posts did we see in the Al Gore thread calling him a hypocrite?

QUOTE(shipps @ Mar 8, 2007 -> 07:56 AM) What would be the best forum to sell a car privately especially at what would be an expensive enough price to pay my car off? I listed on autotrader.com and the car sold 2 days after the listing printed.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Mar 6, 2007 -> 02:41 PM) When did Terrerro get a roster spot? Is there a story on him or something. Do you still have the link? LINK

QUOTE(Reddy @ Mar 6, 2007 -> 02:28 PM) which is a mistake. i'd much rather see anderson get the playing time over pods frankly. damnit Javy make the play or let the 2B make it Is that Jack Tripper in your sig?

How does Javy look/sound?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 6, 2007 -> 01:42 PM) If I had to handicap it, I would bet on Condi. She is one of the few left from the old group, plus Bush would have a chance to go down in history as putting both the first female and the first minority into the VP slot. What about appointing McCain or Guiliani? Might be a good strategy to ensure a presidential victory in '08.

What's Jeb doing these days?
