  2. For those off you out there wondering, it is 75 and partly cloudy at the Cell tonight
  3. s***. yahoo is painfully slow tonight
  4. lets get game #26 on the board early
  5. just out of curiousity, how old is he? I enjoy looking at Reggie Abercrombie's numbers (LA orginization). Puts up offensive numbers similar to Cameron in terms of average, power, and speed, but given 500-600 at-bats, he could strike out 250-300 times
  6. Anyone talked to D'Baho lately?
  7. In the right field bleachers of yankee stadium the fans harass players who make errors by yelling the names of former players who would have made the play. Last night Jason Giambi went for a foul ball, the ball hit his glove bounced off his face, and hit the ground. after hearing "steve balboni would have made that play" and "tino would have made that play" and even "john mayberry would have made that play" one fan yelled "Ray Charles would have had that!" The laughter turned to cringes.

    That is because they have too much pride to blame themselves. If you don't recognize that the Soviet Union failed because of flaws in their own system, you need to do more research.

    I am still not old enough to vote, but the best choice is to stay moderate and make your decisions based on the candidates, not the party. The Republican party freed the slaves, the radical republicans punished the south. The democrats held down black people in the south for years, pretty much until it became socially unacceptable. The Republican party does not stand up for the little man, the poor man, or the the man in need. The Democratic party does. When this country was in its greatest depression...a democrat was there to help. When the USA was faced with an escalating problem, in an asian country...a democrat was there, and he f***ed it up. When this country needed prosperity, and nationalism after WWII...a republican was there. When this country needed hope, needed something to be proud of...a paranoid republican was there, and he f***ed it up. However just as an old cliche says "the man does not make the time, the time makes the man" (or something like that). It is true that the party does not make times of success, it only enjoys the benefits of good luck. In our system, the president, the congressman, and the supreme court justices do not affect us as much as the guy sitting at his computer who creates a whole new form of communication. All we can do is try to find someone who will make us safe, and make progress possible. Neither party is perfect. Neither party is right 100%. Hardliners will never achieve anything in our system, because they will crash and burn with the parties failures. They will always weigh down reform, and will stop us from bettering ourselves. The greatest presidents, the giants of our nation's history, united the left and the right. People have to make concessions to succeed, that is something a strong conservative and a strong liberal will never do. So CS1, do yourself a favor, and position yourself in the middle of the spectrum.
  10. I like Hawk and DJ. They are a solid combination.
  11. Thomson has been pitching well lately too. The key is to get to him early, because the sooner we get into that Atlanta bullpen the better. They don't have a lot of depth in that pen.
  12. Sorry if its early, but I wanted to do my first game thread today, and I am leaving for 5 hours in 10 minutes. So this was the best time for me. Lets Go Sox...lets even this baby up oh and,
  13. I have heard the Freddy Garcia rumors, and the Beltran rumors, but I have not heard a damn thing about picking up a good reliever. Its kind of frustrating.
  14. I was at the Yankee game last night, and all the Yankee fans around me were saying "why are we waiting 'till the deadline to get beltran?". I had to remind them they have s*** in their farmsystem. They don't have enough players to give to KC.
  15. I am extremely moderate. And I believe I actually lean liberal on most things. However when neither candidate meets my criteria my vote would go to the incumbent.
  16. The Smiths suck, and Morrissey can go f*** himself.
  17. That does not mean you have to be a big market team to win. I want a world series
