(AP) -- Real estate millionaire Chris Shelton, a contestant on NBC's "The Apprentice," was arrested on a disorderly conduct charge. Shelton, 22, one of six remaining contestants competing for a job with Donald Trump, was taken into custody early Sunday at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. He was released after posting $250 bail. A tribal police officer said he heard a noisy Shelton in the hotel lobby and asked him twice to calm down before arresting him, said Seminole police spokesman Gary Bitner. "He was loud and he just wouldn't calm down," Bitner said. Shelton was peeved over a $20 cover charge for the hotel bar. Shelton "was at the lobby causing a scene," the police report said. "There were several patrons in the area who were visibly shaken by his actions. After several attempts to calm Shelton, he continued to yell and curse, refusing to calm down and stop causing a scene." Shelton and some friends were staying at the hotel and celebrating his continued success on "The Apprentice," Bitner said. "We don't really have any comment," NBC spokesman Jim Dowd said. "This is clearly a private matter with Chris." All but the final episode has been taped, and it isn't known if Shelton makes it that far. That guy is a total moron. No idea at all why he hasn't been fired.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 12:47 PM) I'm definitely in. To blame Crede for last night's loss is ridiculous. Agree completely. It was obviously Willie's fault.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 11:37 AM) It is, and it has been addressed. :just fell off my chair.

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 11:32 AM) Holy smokes. You seem surprised..??

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 11:15 AM) Hey Captain Stat, take a look at the box score. Mauer wasn't catching. So much for seeing the play. Knock off the imflammatory adjectives as well. There's been a lot of "clueless" "ignorant" "stupid" "ridiculous" etc. coming out of your yap lately. Qwerty is right, you're doing a good job pissing people off. Think about this ... Cora is one of the most aggressive 3B coaches in the league and Iguchi does have base stealer speed. I wonder why Cora didn't send him ... um, maybe because he would have been thrown out by 10 feet. But ... you know better I'm sure.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 11:07 AM) Believe what you will. I saw the play. Mauer is no where in position to make that play, Probably because he wasn't in the game at the time...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 08:11 AM) I haven't read through all of this, but to whoever said that Santana wasn't one of the top pitchers in baseball, and ranked Buehrle ahead of him, go back and watch the last 4 innings that Santana pitched. Then come back and tell me if you have ever seen a preformance like that EVER out of Mark Buehrle. Mark has had his great starts, but he has never been absolutely unhitable like Santana was. Really Santana should have had a shutout, or have given up just one run at most. Guillen's aggressive managing was what got them both of those runs. I hate to lose to the Twins, but I gotta give credit where credit is due. Johan Santana is probably the best pitcher in the AL right now. Another one who doesn't know s*** about baseball and is mentally challenged. :rolly

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 04:45 PM) Geoff Jenkins = Brett Favre ? = First time I met him I thought he was Farve.. I asked him for his ID to prove he wasn't.

I apologize for getting kind of heated on this.. ever since I found out about my friends uncle.. I just get so pissed about this crap.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 04:39 PM) Good point. IMO, whenever someone has their day in court and is judged by a jury of his peers, the system hasn't failed. Keep in mind that the way the public is given and process information is different than actually being in the court room and jury deliberations. Is there such thing as a jury of MJ's "peers"...

LMAO.. I have like 10 people in my office and I am reading this.. when I read he struck out I was like YES!!! everyone looked at me like I was crazy.. LOL.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 04:14 PM) Agreed that the evidence to convict Jackson isn't exactly overwhelming at this point. Keep in mind, though, that "the system" failed horribly in the OJ case, where the DNA evidence alone was more than enough to send him to the chair. EDIT: Forgot that California does not support the death penalty Yea they do... Or do you mean they have it, but don't use it..??

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 04:02 PM) I agree, the guy is off, no doubt, but my point is they have to look at one case at a time and be objective about it. Do we have enough evidence to say he committed THIS crime, for every alleged crime? The legal system has to work for everyone, that's whats' great about it, IMO. I can't agree with that... I believe he abused the boy in '93... and I believe that pedophiles don't stop unless caught and put away... I believe he was about to get caught in '97 (which is why he paid off another kid) and in '02 (and paid off that one also...). They allowed the 1108 testimony in - which allows for past behavior to be admitted into court.. in molestation cases this is crutial in proving that he is a child molestor. I posted about my girlfriend a few weeks ago.. one day - bam - had a memory of her uncle molesting her, which was confirmed by 2 family members... she is dealing with all kinds of legal stuff right now and there is a chance that he has molested since... thanks to her.. and her evidence.. there is a good chance that mofo will end up behind bars. Without her.. no way do they catch him now and stop him. The past has everything to do with molestation cases, IMO.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 03:55 PM) You're right, that's why I asked questions, not make assumptions. Well, that's even more reason to be able to extort the guy this time and next time around. Ultimately, he shouldn't put himself in those sitautions. Which is why I think he is guilty as sin.. The guy just aint right in the head. He sees nothing wrong with this. Classic pedophile signs.... befriend the kids... feed the kids.. lure the kids.. tell lies to the kids.. invite the kids over... for whatever demented reason, become a martyr to the kids... etc, etc, etc... Bla.. makes me want to :puke just thinking about it.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) oh, c'mon, not the old 'my opinon' game again huh Steff? It was my 'opinion' that we should say allegedly, but that didn't fly did it? If it works for you, it works for me....and that's my opinion. I don't know what the hell you are talking about.. but you are free to say allegedly all you want.. I didn't say you couldn't.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) So, did we know FOR SURE that it happened and they matched, or do we assume since they took the loot that they must have matched? Who leaked those details? The investigator who took the pictures was all over the TV after the Bashier interview. I'd say he's a pretty credible source. The grand jury transcripts are on smoking gun also. It's all in there.. Maybe you should read up on the case a bit...

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 03:36 PM) Then there is no need to assume he 'swallowed 9 year old sausage' either. Sure there is... the kid said he did, the guard said he saw him.. and it's my opinion to believe him.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 03:32 PM) Do you remember why he paid one of those kid's families that loot? I think they alleged he had certain markings or birthmarks on his genitals that the kid claimed he saw. Now, if I'm Jackson, even if I'm innocent, do you think I'm gonna drop my pants in court, or allow my genitals to be photographed? I'd fork up the loot too. It's just too easy to extort him, it's his own fault, but still, it's not difficult. Jackson DID have to drop his pants and was photographed by Law Enforcement... the markings matched.. that's why he paid them off to get lost. Sadly.. the parents sold their kid out.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 01:06 PM) allegedly people, allegedly. This isn't a court room... no need for allegedly.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 12:23 PM) WOW, how can you see your tonsils so easily? They're right at the back of your throat on either side.. unless you've had them removed. Easily visable.

QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 12:23 PM) Apparently it's not "here" - It's "there!" Smartass..

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 11:57 AM) Not at all. Actually I was just talking to Kap, and Soxtalk has put up its two biggest single day hit counts in the last two days (560k, 600k), along with almost 4500 posts, and everything is running awesome on the server end. It's here.. I was having trouble on another site also.

QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 11:51 AM) Just attempting sarcasm. Easy. Grrr... is anyone else having trouble posting..? It took like 4 minutes for my last post to show up...

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 11:48 AM) Like this guy? I don't think he was being serious....
