QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 7, 2010 -> 05:55 PM) 5 students wore these shirts (which ironically violates the US code on the flag) and bandannas on Cinco de Mayo. Do you think they weren't trying to make a political statement? They were, which is exactly why they were shutdown by the staff.

If you are 51, you still shouldn't be messing with 19 year olds.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 7, 2010 -> 02:42 PM) You joke, but if people start doing this more often, one of the things that teams will consider is putting up higher fencing or netting all around the field. Its not like fans have ever attacked anyone before or anything...

QUOTE (NIUSox @ May 7, 2010 -> 01:01 PM) That is excellent work.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:57 AM) "Chicago is not a better team than us," Luongo said. "They're not playing better than us. They are just doing a better job in front of the net on both sides. Dustin is doing a good job of what he's doing and he's not getting called for it so he's taking advantage of it. I love this quote from Luongo. Bulletin board material definitely. What a little baby. Called for what? Getting knocked over by your guys?

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:02 AM) Unfortunately that is true. If we are truly out of it at the deadline and PK is still hitting like he is, some team in need of an impact bat for the stretch run would probably offer up a good young player for him. And if so, KW had better make the move. That being said, hopefully we don't find ourselves in that situation. And if were really interested in him, we could bring him back after the season anyway.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 02:12 PM) Which is exactly why no one is trading for him, because its entirely possible that he'll get DFA'd at some point. Anyway...he's in the position a lot of guys who struggle when they first come up wind in...he needs to be patient, wait, and either Beckham's going to get sent down, someone will get hurt, or he can wind up on the FA market soon enough. Well that and the market for back up AAAA 2Bs isn't exactly a popular one.

QUOTE (chisox2334 @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:21 AM) marcum been very good agasint us Profound.

I guess comedians can't handle being the butt of jokes? If so, that is a pretty sad statement.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 7, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) I agree. I'm just struggling to answer the question shouldn't a state have the right, or perhaps even have an obligation, to know the nationality of people within their borders? Or another way, under what conditions should someone be asked to prove their nationality? All of the solutions I can come up with have serious flaws. Ideally the states shouldn't have to worry, but that is a different story.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 7, 2010 -> 02:05 PM) I would be inclined to think that they did wear the shirt on Cinco de Mayo intentionally to make a statement, but it's still not ok to ban them from wearing it. I fought school administration over similar issues back in HS; I fully support the student in this case. The thing is, many schools stop things like that from happening to prevent even worse events. They'd rather have a protest over a shirt, than a race-based gang fight later on. Legally they are 100% within their rights.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 12:02 PM) Because if there's one thing that we know works to keep people off the field, it's torture. There wasn't anyone on the field the night after the tasering in Philly. LMAO@ torture. Talk about a strawman. Anyways, they also pretty much said they weren't going to taser anybody going on to the field anymore because they had to review the policy.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:19 AM) You're kidding right? You do realize how that Philly video is just going to be encouraging people. Wha? People don't react based on what they see on TV, at least that is what Hollywood tells me.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:07 AM) Anyone who runs onto the field should be tasered, in my opinion. It's the only way people will stop doing it. QFT

QUOTE (mr_genius @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:41 AM) agreed. this is a humanitarian disaster. blatant racism from the Russians. Well hopefully they at least read them their rights before they put them on the boat.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:34 AM) It's just the free market, unencumbered. That's what you guys tell us is the best. And all of this government that we are spending trillions of dollars is supposed to protect us from everything. That's what you guys tell us is the best.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) won't matter, only way the Cards don't absolutely run away with this division is a major injury or two Its all about their pitching. If Carpender goes down again, this could be interesting.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 11:02 AM) What the...why? The fun part is that we are 24 hours out, and we still have no idea what happened. Just great work by those regulating bodies that are supposed to be watching the system.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2010 -> 12:03 AM) Cowley's such an asshole. I heard Ozzie talk about Beckham, and he didn't mean Golden Boy in a bad way. All Ozzie was saying is that Beckham has been the Golden Boy wherever he's played, be it in Little League or high school or at UGa. I was extremely impressed with Ozzie's post game press conference with regards to Beckham. What else is new. The sooner he goes the way of Mariotti, the better.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ May 7, 2010 -> 06:32 AM) Thought perhaps his doctor's office got some new magazines that caught his attention. "While I am here doctor... I have a, um, question about some, um, stuff..."

QUOTE (Tex @ May 7, 2010 -> 05:52 AM) I will admit this, it is possible to enforce this law in a sane manner. I've just never been a believer that Arizona local police could pull it off . . . It is another huge intrusion into individual rights, IMO.

No rights and proper trial? For shame.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ May 7, 2010 -> 08:12 AM) Unemployment rate is up to 9.9% BUT 290,000 new jobs in April! How much of that was census?

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 6, 2010 -> 11:48 PM) Yeah I know this was argued before but holy s*** do stockholders ever act like irrational tween girls or what? Do these things happen automatically or something? Apple plummeted like $60 for pretty much no reason, for instance. The whole system is super jittery right now. Every single country on the planet with any amount of debt and deficit is thinking that they could be the next Greece in the back of their minds. If this does end up being an error, the only reason this tanked the market like it did is because there was legitimate fear that something real could be happening. Usually when this happens, and it does more often than you know, everyone knows it is just an error, and not something collapsing.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 7, 2010 -> 12:23 AM) I still wish Crosby didn't score that goal for Canada to win. IMO, it was only a matter of time before Luongo would have chocked again. Seems ever since then, he's been getting a pass from the Canadian media cause he won gold (not from the times he chocked in the playoffs), when it was Ryan Miller who was standing on his head that whole series. Easy to make average stops (though a couple were hard I'll give him credit) when you have Keith/Doughty etc.. on your side, not to mention the monster over-talent that Canada had over pretty much everyone in the tournament. The reason that Luongo was good in the Olympics is because he could stand in the crease without fear. He knew that there wasn't going to be any contact or anyone running him. The game was different.
