QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 08:19 AM) So at what point does he realize that his body is not working in conjunction with his Conan the Mighty Barbarian act? Do we need 5 more DL trips between now and when his contract is mercifully up for him to understand this? So this is you getting over it?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 07:13 PM) If interested, I can post pics from a Belgian brewery and the Heineken brewery. QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 07:20 PM) Yes, please do. Are you kidding? This is masturbation material for Flaxx.

That is true.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 08:15 AM) You know why I've been skeptical about the "Links" of these things to cell phones? Although there has been cell phone expansion over the past few years, it's not as if there wasn't significant cell capacity a decade ago when there wasn't colony collapse disorder around. Furthermore, you'd expect geographic effects if there was a direct cell phone link...areas like around San Francisco should have huge problems while the Central Valley should be nearly spared, and I've never seen publications suggesting a geographic effect of cities on those. Same thing for the reports about brain damage. People have been using cellular phone systems for 30 years...and honestly I'd bet that the older versions were much stronger microwave emitters than the recent versions, yet we haven't seen a huge spike in brain cancer over the last decade as far as I know. There ought to be a correlation here with something...if cell phone use is causing damage, then you ought to see correlations between cell phone use and the effects of that damage, either in time or in space or based on usage. If someone came out and alleged a correlation between cell phone use and autism rates, which have skyrocketed over the past 30 years, that would intrigue me a lot more, for example. Why autism? I don't see lots of babies using cellphones

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 03:01 AM) Wow, coulda sworn some of you guys were talking about proposed plans of Marquez being a long man. Ha. Ha ha. Ha... He was while he was up here.

Really, I think you might be on to something.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 08:04 AM) I didn't read the study, but I've heard about the connection, no pun intended. It's amazing to me that this isn't a bigger story, given that bees are such a crucial part of our ecosystem. There is also a lot of buzz (jeesh, all these unintended puns) in Europe about the effects cell phones may have on our brains, however that seems to be getting swept under the carpet in the US as well. Judging by the some of the people I see on their phones all of the time, it makes sense...

QUOTE (NIUSox @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 05:28 PM) Honey Bees still disappearing at major levels. Anyone else read the study tying this to cell phones?

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 02:50 PM) Who's the imposter wearing #77 for us?I like that dude That was a nasty change up.

No word yet as to whether it was ineffectiveness or injury, but he was only at 75 pitches

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 12:13 PM) Yeah and hopefully lots more too. He hasn't looked beaten to me until the last couple of days. He looks off mentally now.

People are drunk. Either that or they are looking to fall to specific teams.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 11:02 AM) Anyone following the Ricketts stuff recently? The sound bite of the father saying that the cubs sellout win or lose when they bought the team was intriguing. He admitted he does not care about sports and is not a fan and this was a business venture not a feel good story. The debt taken on is looking pretty daunting here and TD Ameritrade appears to want nothing to do with this. Tom Ricketts is looking like a mix between Mike McCasky and Paris Hilton more and more. The cub payroll may be below $100M next year. Then you put Hendry in the mix and it makes it appear even scarier not to mention Crane Kenny running around. That is like a clown car. Again, bye-bye Poo-Holes

Glad to see Rios get the day off.

Not a bad idea.

Likely some ass kicking instead

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 08:11 PM) 3 days after opening day? Yep.

Rendon is looking for $13 million? WTF am I missing?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 05:20 AM) Like I said, I get the hate. I was pissed as anybody last summer. I guess I just can't care anymore. But to quit the sport is excessive and extreme. No, getting over it is much more like sticking around and b****ing about it.
