QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 04:03 PM) Frankly, if Teahen's struggles at the plate the last coupel years in KC related to him having to move around all the time and never settling at a position, as has been suggested...that could easily be true. He's playing 3rd base. Every day.

QUOTE (beck72 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 03:52 PM) But why put extra pressure on Teahen now? What does that even mean? Kotsay is pressure proof and Teahan needs to be handled with gloves?

He consistently hit 84 knots.

QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 03:48 PM) And thus, a career in left wing politics was born! Damn. It took this long for someone to mention that?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 02:26 PM) Plus, using some evidence to back up your argument isn't a bad idea. I'm not a big fan of facts.

And I don't think he sucks. He should bat in the lower 3rd of the lineup though. It's not his fault where he hits.

You could have saved some work:

Good for him for showing a little bit of sanity.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) it'd be silly to torrent on something with such low memory. Your ratios would be EFFED Was thinking more along the line of Apps/programs. EDIT: Not an Apple guy so not sure if that's even possible.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:43 PM) I don't mess around with torrent, so I dunno... *sticks with his trusted VAIO*

How torrent-friendly is the iPad? Can you get a lot of content through that channel?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:20 PM) That's a pretty large conclusion to jump to. I was just making an observation, and i don't want to get any more political then that. At the end of the day who cares how hard core he is? He's the President of the free world. I can't imagine he has hours each day to spend on message boards or reading blogs about his favorite teams. He's exposing this franchise to a global audience every time he wears a Sox cap or mentions the team. So he doesn't know Rios' WAR or the starting lineup for Birmingham....big deal. People like to complain about the smallest things (not referring to you specifically TB).

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:09 PM) I like the concept of the iPad, I just don't like its closed nature and the fact that you have to pay to do anything with it pretty much. I echo those sentiments.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:07 PM) I also found it interesting that I suddenly started seeing Kindle ads last week. They bring down the price again, which is inevitable, and they'll have a new customer.

Yeah but their commercials are hip so who cares.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 01:02 PM) Especially, when he has trouble naming any of the players. So you'd be happier if he wore Cubs gear all the time?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 12:51 PM) Total corporate income taxes paid last year by Exxon-Mobil: $15 billion. Total corporate income taxes paid last year by Exxon-Mobil to the United States Federal Government: $0. Corporate taxes in this country are clearly too high. Oddly, this is something the Tea Party isn't going to be outraged about.

Well at least he might make the men's team somewhat competitive with the women's.

Lollapalooza lineup isn't all that impressive. For what they're charging I'd expect something better than Green Day and Lady Gaga as headliners.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 09:57 AM) Sqwert, I'm not saying Purnell is a great hire, but come on...who in their right mind would possibly go there? What legitimate coach with any career momentum is going to accept a position at Depaul right now? So all of a sudden $15M can't get you anything? Purnell? That's it?

QUOTE (hogan873 @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 09:52 AM) Deadliest Catch is returning this month. I wonder how they will handle Capt. Phil's death. By showing the crew talk about Captain Phil non-stop for the last few months as they hopelessly scour the ocean for whatever's left of the massive decline in sea life.

What a f***ing joke. The AD needs to be fired.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 08:22 AM) Eh, I really doubt he was. You are wrong. In recent years, the President always wears a vest for the first pitch.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 08:10 AM) No. I mean booed heavily at USCF. They don't have audio on the highlights at USCF. I thought it was pretty sad because it was a pretty violent boo. I just checked the promotional calendar and it said "Tea Party Day - 4/05/10".
