Thanks... Glad to see we are on top, I wish I got this game in New Jersey.
-
sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant to say: what is the score please
-
score please, just came in

It is at 55-45...I am getting a little nervous

I can not imagine what he must be thinking right now. On top of the world in terms of contract, likely to improve his game as time goes on, and now his whole career is on the brink. I hope he learned something while he was at Duke. I will certaintly be rooting for a full recovery, this kind of stuff is just such a shame

According to Jay Mariotti's article on the subject, Williams faces numerous leg breaks and a broken pelvis, and after the crash witnesses heard him yelling 'I can't feel my legs'. I didn't hear anything about life threatening though. He is damn lucky that he still has his life and his limbs. It seems that Bike accidents have cost a lot of legs.

Women and troopers...psh! What does a trooper have anyway. If I wanted to I could get a pair of dark shades with shiny rims and talk with a southern accent..."roll down yer winda". What do women like about a guy that gives them tickets that ultimately results in a loss of money (which they love to spend at malls) anyway. Stupid Troopers

Ahhh... the one thing all of us guys spend the first 16 years of our lives trying to figure out... then we find out for a brief time... after we finally figure it out, it is awesome...then young women turn into women and we have to start all over again... us guys have it rough man (though every girl i have ever spoken too begs to differ)

Tigers thought he was going to be great alongside Encarnacion... He has the slowest friggin bat on the planet. Parque could get a fastball by him.

You forget that Thomas was 3 homeruns away from the triple crown...who knows how that would have played out
-
Exactly, meaning that they ruled in his favor...they said no recounts
-
Cool for Thursday, Friday, and Sunday ... On Saturday though, Fox will show your local rivalry. I have to watch the Yankees bash the dimwitted metropolitans

No, I don't think he was cheated out of an election. The Florida thing went through the state legislature, the Supreme Court, the highest court in this country made a ruling. Bush won Florida, and the fact that the high courts in this nation and the state of Florida ruled in his favor mean he won the election. I also hate it when people bring up the popular vote, Gore never cried about that, because he knows how the system is set up.

By reading WSC's posts we are actually monitoring him go through puberty. It seems he discovers these things and posts them... there is the masturbation stuff, the famous "I love boobies I just want to squeeze them quote", now there is this... I think it is pretty funny. Someone could put together a scrapbook WSC quotes and call it "A Young Man Observes Women, Life, and Maturation"

I thought Royko passed away Anyway, I no that JFK still won the election, that is why it is not as big of a deal. But the Kennedy family including JFK were very corrupt and stole the Illinois election. Now taking what you said in mind, they may have won Illinois even if they had not cheated. The only thing you mentioned that doesn't really help them all that much is being Irish. Don't Eastern Europeans have a natural resentment towards Western Europeans? Not sure about that, but I think they do...so that would hurt the Kennedy family in Chicago. Of course being catholic helps, because Eastern Europeans are catholic (or are they orthadox?)

Anyone remember Garfield the tv show? 'Garfield and friends'

Eminem and Opera...hmmm. That is quite a variety. I like Eminem, but Opera...uh well not so much. Actually I like that blind Italian guy, the tenor. Its too bad I don't understand any of his songs. damn language barrier. btw, what do you think of tressels new contract? I am so proud of how we recruited out of Ohio, that I say Tressel is fired before his contract is up, well maybe they will just let him go when it is up. Either way, Michigan will lay a smack down on OSU this season, I can feel it. And I turned your sig picture into my wallpaper. The size readjusted nicely

1549, you should check out the journalistic work done by Greg Palast. Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris removed over 57700 voters from the voter rolls for crimes such as "felony committed in 2007" [nearly all registered Democrats]. The Attorney General of Florida even admitted that it was a bad list...and election judges thought something was up when one of the election judges ended up on the list! I like it when the elections at least allow people to vote. www.gregpalast.com and his book "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" The US had broken the Japanese code before they started their imperialist ventures in the "Empire of Japan". When they intercepted the Pearl Harbor attack messages, they moved all the new battleships out for maneuvers so they wouldn't be there during the attack. It was imperative that we left something there and didn't tell the troops because if we ambushed the Japanese we'd lose their code that we decoded. That is why FDR allowed Pearl Harbor to happen. "Saving Private Power" by Michael Zezima and "A Peoples' History of the United States" by Howard Zinn are good sources that document this. And 1549, don't make me a fan of the Democrats. I rallied HARD against Tipper Gore and her PMRC actions of the '90s with Joe Lieberman. Trust me, the fact that Al Gore went to S. Africa and told them that if they accepted cheaper AIDS medication from the EU that the US would cut off all aid made me hate his ass. Trust me, nobody can be the hate I have for the Dulles brothers but LBJ is up there. The Republicans and the Democrats are out for corporate interests...as I mentioned with the money influence peddled with Orrin Hatch. The Democrats bending over for Bush and everything he desires, they are supposed to be an OPPOSITION PARTY. That's why our political system is in shambles. There is no clear defined cleavage between the two parties here. I mean, in the UK, it's the Conservatives and the Labor party. Really easy obvious social cleavage there that makes politics a lot easier. I have read enough about the Florida election. Van Netta in the New York Times claims that Gore won, after he investigated. I read a column (I don't remember who the author was) in USA today saying that Bush won after all votes were recounted. And I am willing to bet that many if not all elections have a little foul play...this one and Kennedy's have the most publicity, but I would bet all candidates do it. I myself plan to go to journalism school, but I intend to write in sports or field reporting that is not involved in few 'anonymous sources' and speculative ideas. Of course somethings recquire anonymous sources, it is when National Enquirer type stories use them that it is ridiculous. Until I see solid proof I will not believe that he allowed the Pearl Harbor disaster to happen. The casualty number was way to high, and i think he would have sacraficed the code. If he really knew so damn much we could have hit them strategically so that there ships would have to scramble elsewhere, without them knowing that we got the codes. I just think away to avert disaster would have been found. As for the new ships leaving, yes, but the USS Arizona was one of the last superpowerful battle ships, perhaps it was outdated, but because of the numerous amounts of sailors aboard I say the Arizona and other battleships would have been moved and replaced by less crowded ships.

Enjoy the game--Where are your seats? I will be in town during All Star weekend, so I checked out ticket prices on Ebay and nearly threwup. The going prices are obscene. And for seats in like section 550, location doesn't matter for the All-Star game, but paying in the thousands (yes, thousands for the entire event thing for 2 people) for those sections is a little ridiculous for my wallet to cough up. You can't blame him, Pinnella would have squeezed out his neck like a wash rag if Garcia had hurt himself.

You attack my wisdom, than you say Bush lost the election. Well, the Electoral College isn't anything new. I am sure Gore knew the rules of the playground before he entered the election. And by the way, I am sure Gore would not have been able to stop the current economic collapse, and then we would be arguing right now that the ballots should not have been recounted, and that Bush should be in office b/c he could have prevented economic turmoil. As far as Roosevelt being a communist, I take that back, I would say his views and the entire new deal were more socialist than communist. Though I do not think that the accusations that Roosevelt knew of an impending Japanese attack on Pearle Harbor hold any water. If he did know though, I am sure it was not to the extent that he could have known exactly what was going to happen. As far as my 'political post' having no wisdom, you were able to attack 1 technically 2 things about it. I am pretty sure more points than that were raised...I don't blame you though, afterall it is really hard to defend an incompetent President (Carter). He is a great guy, no doubt about it, but he had no business being in the White House. I certainly do applaud his efforts in bringing Peace to the middle east though, it is too bad that everything has fallen to pieces over there.

I was at a game In Baltimore and he chased down a foul ball, than rather than make a regular face the ball style catch, or a regular view over the shoulder--mitt in front of body basket catch, Jimenez decided to catch the ball with the mitt at his side. Of course the ball bounced out of the mitt. Thank you DLo, I dont' drive 4 hours to see a lazy ass effort. Lets not forget the game in Oakland

Name the last time a Democrat has done anything for this country... Bill Clinton was a good public speaker, and it is unfair to call him a bad president because of his 'dealings' in the oval office, but he did not do s***. Every thing he supposedly did in the middle east flew back in our faces. He went soft on both Terrorist orginizations and Saddam. Democrats love to talk about Clinton and the economy, well technology saved Clinton's ass. The market goes through a regular cycle of 1) Prosperity 2) Recession 3) Depression (sometimes worse than others) 4) Recovery. Clinton was lucky to have been elected during recovery. And the mass prosperity was due simply to waves of new technology brought about by computer and the internet. The economy spiraled back down the s***hole towards the end of his term, and fell right on Bush. Now lets go back a little further to Carter... What did he do for this country? 'Lusted not touch' while our citizens were being held by friggen terrorists. Not to mention the end of the 70's was not america's hay day (this is my opinion, I studied it, but did not experience it) Where does that leave us? L-B-J, Having conferences on the s***ter, picking up his beagle by the ears, and whipping out his dick at a press conference (yes it did actually happen) makes him a wierd human being, not a bad President. But his handlings of foriegn affairs makes him a bad president. Wouldn't surprise me if Sideshowapu hates LBJ more than any Republican presidents, what he did with Vietnam makes the War in Iraq look incredibly legal. Afterall, the war in Iraq was set to have definitive goals and a definate ending. I don't need to go through Kennedy (overrated) and Truman (I like him) and Roosevelt (communist) you get my point. DON'T PICK ON REPUBLICANS Vote Bush in '04, he'll win a war!

Just did a little investigating and figured out where I have seen her before...I don't think I need to spell it out for you.

Where did Traci Lords become famous? I saw her on 'I love the 80's' and she looks really familiar to me, but I can't put my finger on where I have seen her before... she certainly is damn hot
