Bingo. Anyone work at the Trump? Clue #5: Leaving work early? You might hear your boss say 'you're fired'! #csnhunt

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 03:18 PM) No the entire point of a trial is that everyone is going to lie and its up to the judge or jury to determine who is telling the truth. Im not sure how the legal system falls apart if people are lying under oath. The legal system presumes that everyone is lying, and therefore it is up to the attorney to show why the other person is lying and why his client is telling the truth. One of the first things you are taught in trial advocacy is how to catch someone in a lie to discredit their testimony. Im not cool with people lying under oath, I think that it should be fair for everyone. If the govt is going to lie under oath, then the person they are trying to convict, should also be able to lie under oath. But right now we have a system where the govt can lie under oath, without penalty, where as if a Defendant lies under oath, the govt will try and prosecute. Thats unjust. As for Bonds, you have a right to not self incriminate. A grand jury is part of a criminal proceeding. While he was not the focus of the proceeding (he was given immunity which is why he couldnt use the 5th), it was still a criminal procedure. And Im not sure how this is arguing that because everyone is doing it. Its arguing that, if the govt is allowed to perjure to convict people, than defendants should be allowed to perjure to try and beat the govt, its called fairness. Or if you are going to convict defendants for perjury, convict every officer who perjures. there is a big difference between a persons version of the truth, and lying under oath. I don't care who commits perjury, they should be tried and convicted.

I'll bet the fifth clue has something in it that refers to playing a "trump card".

I think you might be right Clue #4: You’ll have to go to great heights for this #CSNHunt

First things first, you need to form an exploratory committee and begin fundraising...

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 01:48 PM) Twins probably shouldn't have traded Ramos (especially for freakin' Matt Capps). If they were to move Mauer out of the C position, his immediate replacement would be the great .200 hitting Drew Butera. The Twins would never trade a top prospect for a reliever! Only kenny would do that!

QUOTE (danman31 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 01:36 PM) Wow I never thought about that. He should have another year still because he was signed before he was 18, giving the Sox 5 years of 'evaluation time.' I'm fairly sure he's only on year 4 because the DSL doesn't count, but I'm gonna have to follow up on this. That said, talent or otherwise, I can't imagine a team wanting to hold him on a 25-man roster next year. With the start he's off to now, I could see him landing on the 40-man roster before 2013. At that point he could have AA time or be heading into a AA season so the Sox would probably want to protect him. That's what I was wondering about. If the kid has a big enough year at his age, could someone take a chance on him? Could he force to put him on the 40 with a big enough season? But if he has another year, that is all for naught.

That's about as many people as went to their last home game...

QUOTE (danman31 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 01:18 PM) And showing massive power. It's almost become cliche, but he has always been worth following because of the age. Will he be to Rule 5 stage after this year?

Anyone else following it? Seems like it should be a theatre on Wabash, but i can't figure it out.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 12:17 PM) Who is going to prosecute the police officer? The prosecutor who just won his case because the police officer perjured? The problem is that perjury and obstruction of justice are weapons that the govt uses to coerce people to do things. They are unfortunately not weapons that every day people like us, can use against the govt. If the govt commits perjury, your best hope is that you are found innocent. http://www.constitution.org/lrev/dershowitz_test_981201.htm To sum up the Bonds trial, using Dershowitz's words: Sorry for the long post, but the reality is that there is a pretty good chance that there were perjured statements used against Bonds, but those people will never be prosecuted. Why? Because the govt gets to choose who they prosecute. They dont prosecute people who play their game and who give them what they want, regardless if it is completely false and leads to the death of an innocent defendant. Conversely, if you dont give the govt what they want, they will try and ruin your life with a perjury conviction. That is why people should be repulsed by what is being done to Bonds, because its a sham. This is type of argument that never will change my mind. Pointing out other faults is never going to change my mind about something unrelated. Just because our system is corrupt, doesn't mean Barry Bonds shouldn't be prosecuted. It means Barry Bonds AND anyone who purjuors themselves should be prosecuted. Just because one person gets away with cheating, doesn't mean everyone is now allowed to cheat. If there is no penalty for lying in court, there might as well not be a court system.

QUOTE (Benchwarmerjim @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 10:59 AM) Pavano told Gardy he was gassed after 8 innings There is more to that post than meets the eye. There was a long drawn out fight over Buehrle and Danks getting pulled too early, and many feeling that Ozzie was an idiot for doing it.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 11:31 AM) And the Defense is going to appeal the conviction the govt got him on. I just dont understand why are willing to support the govt wasting millions of dollars on something that happens every day, and something that govt employees do every day. Plenty of police officers/fbi/dea etc, have perjured to get a conviction. The entire point of a trial is that people lie and its up to the jury to determine who isnt the liar. Ive had a judge flat out call some one a liar and say "You are lying to my face", but all it meant was that they lost the trial. Its a shame, but this is what happens when you dont rat on your friends, the govt punishes you. I dont support vindictiveness in the law, I think that goes beyond justice. See now I see that as a major problem, and something that should be fixed too.

Pinned to win.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 09:53 AM) Is it really bad luck when Mauer gets hurt? Yeah, they have some guys on that team that surprise no one when they go down... Mauer, Morneau, Liriano etc. They have a whole lot of money wrapped up in two of them. I wouldn't be shocked if they really, really regret both of the M-boys extentions.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 09:55 AM) It'd be so, so, so nice if one could actually save money by being able to just purchase the channels or small groups of channels that one actually wants. If a company wanted to steal marketshare quickly, they could offer ala carte cable. I would jump on it so hard.
