Liriano vs Verlander tonight. Should be a good one.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 09:52 AM) Oh come on, you know full well that a police officer in a public area has nearly unlimited power to decide that a person looks suspicious. I couldn't imagine Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his henchmen would ever do something like that. A little insight from an Arizonian:

Drill Baby Drill!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 09:42 AM) Btw, liked this one:

Tied for last place and 5 games out of first. Prediction: We will be in 2nd place by the end of the week.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 06:08 AM) Evidence, please. Most of the "hard left" in this country are pissed off at Obama for various reasons. *raises hand*

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 07:14 AM) Given the amount of scandal and abuse by our current congress over the years, don't you think that the health care bill will be completely abused? Thanks for avoiding the question.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 06:48 AM) If nobody spoke English and had no ID, the same thing. Tex, I am all for going after the 'other' class of illegals as well, the ones that overstay their visas. So if Dilip, Vladimir and Svetlana are here illegally, boot them out as well. Given the extremely controversial tactics employed by the Sheriff's office down there over the years you don't think this law will be completely abused?

QUOTE (daggins @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 04:43 PM) hardyharhar I love that you just typed that.

Saw VII? Really?

QUOTE (daggins @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 04:37 PM) Yup. It just doesn't make any sense, although it didn't make much sense going in to the season. Konerko's power surge and Andruw's second rebirth also don't help, but if Andruw starts to fall off like he did last year, I expect KW to add a lefty bat - just not a Prince Fielder/AGon type bat. A Kotsay type perhaps.

What is the point of this? Anyone can pray whenever they want.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 03:42 PM) I still think Clayton Richard can be a good bullpen arm, but that's all the further I'd go. He's got a good fastball, but all of his secondary pitches are mediocre to bad. That leaves him as a 4th or 5th starter, or a bullpen arm. So more time under Magic Man Don Cooper's tutelage wouldn't have benefited him?

When the man is healthy he's a pretty damn fine offensive player.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 01:58 PM) You do when he has Jenks' track record, you have no better in-house options, and your bullpen outside of Thornton is pretty much terrible (nobody could've foreseen a converted SS becoming our best bullpen arm this winter). Better to pay Bobby year-by-year than to throw a $10M+ multi-year deal at somebody like K-Rod and hope that he doesn't blow his arm out. I don't want Bobby around next year, but bringing him back this year was absolutely the right thing to do. Finally someone that agrees with me that our bullpen isn't as great as the numbers may portray them to be.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 11:14 AM) Both teams should play for the right to punch A.J. in the face.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 09:49 AM) and somewhat competent A very solid weekend for them. The sooner they cut Russel the better. Campbell will be a nice 2-3 year bridge to the next QB.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 09:50 AM) Depends if you believe the homeless guy telling you the world is ending. Great analogy. *rolls eyes*

The Raiders! Back to being somewhat competitive.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 09:12 AM) anyone see the play yesterday, exact same WS play where the runner is not even at third and Pods has the ball....yesterday he did not even try to throw the guy out at home Pierre nails the runner at second if the throw is on the bag yesterday. Pierre's arm is fine out there. Not saying Pods is even remotely competent in the field but have you ever seen Pierre's arm?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 09:29 AM) They are upset with government spending levels. From what admittedly little I've seen in speeches and quoted statements from their leadership, they don't exclude military spending from that equation. Some might, I don't know, but you seem to THINK they feel that the military isn't subject to it. I just haven't seen any evidence as such, only your assumption. I'm pretty well read on current events and since the inception of the Tea Party I have yet to hear a speech, read an article, see a misspelled sign in a crowd, etc. that slams out of control military spending.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 09:11 AM) Who says they don't say a peep about that? They have? Where and when?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 07:34 AM) There is some tax panic in there, but really its core is more about out-of-control spending. And if they stick to that, I'm pretty much in agreement with their concerns. Why won't they say a peep about the out of control defense spending? It's hard to take them seriously if that's something they never even consider.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 26, 2010 -> 08:39 AM) Oh no, not Tomshardware.com!!!!! I guess making fun of the source makes none of it true.

Doh! I was out of the office most of last week. Just catching up.
