This team is playing like a bunch of castrated pussies.

Q trying his best to have the worst BA on the team. Has he gotten a hit since his return?

This team is going nowhere with a defense this atrocious.

Great. Brian is already for the BoSox.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 03:57 PM) I think it has more to do with compassion for the animals as sentient creatures than it does with being wrong. ^^^^ When I look at my dogs I know that other animals are systematically killed based on some arbitrary selection process. The dogs I own are delicacies elsewhere yet people here would be in an uproar if I chopped their heads off and boiled them in a pot. Just like a dog or cat, the animals most people eat do feel pain, care for their offspring and instinctually want to live.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 03:28 PM) I saw a lady on North Ave. open her car door right into a cyclist. It looked really f***ing painful. I was "doored" about a month ago for the 1st time. Very painful. Luckily the person getting out of the car was nice enough to completely walk away with complete disregard and didn't bother to ask if I was okay.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:54 PM) The VA system sucks, as does Medicare. I have nothing more to say about this, it's an obvious waste of time. Anyone that thinks the Medicare or VA system is working needs to stop reading propaganda and go talk to some actual veterans in the system or elderly caught up in the awesomeness that is Medicare. Any proposed solutions other than "everything sucks"?

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:25 AM) I don't think ANYONE has said otherwise. But, government take over of health care is not the way to go, period. And my prediction of what would happen appears to be happening... I said somewhere back in this thread that the "compromise" would be that they take the "government option" off the table, in name only, and would pass rules that would force insurance companies to do exactly what they say anyway - which is the same thing, but taking this "option" off the table to make it look like they're compromising. I said it was a trojan horse, and sure enough, it looks that is exactly what is happening in the "senate agreement". Frankly, it's still government takeover of health care, now they're just changing the packaging of it. Do your parents and grandparents refuse government controlled Medicare?

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:57 AM) This team needs to improve defensively. Understatement of the year.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:53 AM) does anyone know if we truly are the only industrialized nation in the world without universal healthcare? There are several sources that say no. I just don't have time to look for them. /kap

I'll be avoiding the next 2 games to save myself from the stress. Hopefully I'll wake up each morning with a pleasant surprise.

Somebody wake me up once this team starts playing halfway decent again.

Wow. Our team f***ing blows right now. 3 runs on 6 hits against Perkins.

LOL I was just about to type this: Prediction, 1 pitch 1 out

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 04:36 PM) I think she seriously wrote those herself. Wouldn't she have had to? I would be amazed if she hired someone and that's what they came up with.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 04:08 PM) Have you read/listened to her resignation speech? the whole thing is like that. The link I referenced has it in its entirety.

For some reason "The Rev" looks like Don Cooper from behind. That's d be hilarious if he had to do weddings on the side to make ends meet. And picturing him doing it with that thick ass east coast accent is hilarious.
