QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 02:26 PM) your logic is hopelessly flawed. when using a mechanical harvester, you know very well you are going to kill a whole bunch of animals by shredding them to death. yet you don't seem to care about this intentional killing because it removes your self-rightous soap box from under your feet. also, if you eat anything that was grown using nitrogen based fertilizer you should know it seeps into reivers which lead into the gulf creating a "dead zone" — a large area so depleted of oxygen that fish, crabs and shrimp suffocate. intentionally eating food you know directly lead to the killing fish and other sea creatures? for shame BigSqwert, for shame. Wow. Keep convincing your self that you have a great argument. Also since I'm sure you're anti-murder for humans I expect you to sell your car and walk everywhere for the rest of your life since cars and other vehicles accidentally kill people. I look forward to some more ingenious arguments from you. Perhaps you'll tell me that eating vegetables equals murder too.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 02:17 PM) i have bad news for you BigSqwert, farms that use mechanical harvesting kill tons of animals. you need to stop eating vegetables if you wish to be truly, as you have defined, humane; never eat food that has caused the death of an animal. Like I said, the dumbest argument I have ever heard for rationalizing meat eating. Purposefully murdering animals by the billions each year does not equate to accidentally killing an animal in the process of harvesting grains, etc. Taking the same rationality you should be able to murder as many people as you feel like since cars accidentally kill people.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 02:09 PM) I find this topic to be ridiculous. Yet you've posted in this thread several times.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 02:07 PM) I believe an animal can be killed humanely. You can kill an animal in a way which is much less painful than that of dying of natural causes; when the body slowly breaks down due to age. Killing is not humane in any way. I don't care if you're playing the best of U2 while you're slitting a cow's throat. You're still slitting the cow's throat.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 06:41 PM) If you eat fruits and vegetables, you're killing rabbits, deer, birds etc. Probably the dumbest argument I have ever heard for rationalizing meat eating.

QUOTE (Drew @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 06:20 PM) It's far more humane... Can we get off this notion that there is such thing as humane meat? Unless you're growing it in a petri dish it's not humane. GMAFB.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:12 AM) i believe his production has been better than what we've gotten out of the Wise/BA combo Since his return from injury I'm not so sure. Granted it's a small sample size but he has not contributed much at all.

Now this is the story all about how My life got flipped, turned upside down And Id like to take a minute just sit right there Ill tell you how I became the prince of a town called bel-air In west philadelfia born and raised On the playground where I spent most of my days Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool And all shooting some b-ball outside of the school When a couple of guys said were up in no good Started making trouble in my neighbourhood I got in one little fight and my mom got scared And said youre moving with your aunte and uncle in bel-air I begged and pleaded with her the other day But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way She gave me a kissin and she gave me my ticket I put my walkman on and said I might aswell kick it First class, yo this is bad, Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass Is this what the people of bel-air livin like, Hmm this might be alright! I whistled for a cab and when it came near the Licensplate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought now forget it, yo home to bel-air I pulled up to a house about seven or eight And I yelled to the cabby yo, home smell you later Looked at my kingdom I was finally there To settle my throne as the prince of bel-air

Have a Very Jonas Brothers Birthday!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 01:43 AM) How the heck is Lee a finesse pitcher? Lee has very good stuff for a lefty. He might not throw 96 but he's got great stuff. Dan Haren doesn't throw super hard, Mark Buehrle doesn't. Give me a break. The guy won the Cy Young in the AL, you don't do that by sucking. I'm assuming his lumping him in the Esteban Loaiza category.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 06:35 PM) Anyone else remember the 1991 season, where the team was 1 game back, Wilson Alvarez threw a no hitter his first time out, the team was 20 games over .500, and suddenly they went on a major losing skid, finished the season in 2nd place and were 8 games under .500 after the no-no? Unfortunately yes.

Forget about any chance of going to the post season if our bullpen continues like this for an extended period of time.

2 blown saves for our closer this week. We win both of those games and things look a lot brighter.

f*** this team

What a great idea to get an equally slow guy in to run for Paulie.
