Tim Tebow to appear in anti-abortion Super Bowl ad
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 02:55 PM) To be fair though, the ads PETA makes are deliberately designed to be so offensive that they get rejected based on the close to explicit sexual content of the ad. Although, one does wonder why it's ok to put Cialis ads on the air. My issue with CBS is that their policy on "Issue-advocacy" ads seems to apply to any ad that would come from the left, and doesn't get applied at all from groups on the right. impotency is a right wing issue?

Buehrle has had shoulder problems
QUOTE (heirdog @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 01:19 PM) But couldn't all teams' starting pitchers have injuries. I think its a factual statement to note that the Sox have one of the top starting staffs in the bigs...right now. You can add the caveat "barring injury" to all teams on that list. I don't understand your last sentence. Probably because I'm not a Cub fan...what is a "cubs fan mentality?" Mostly it is a weak argument employed by Sox fans when they have nothing intelligent to say...

As to the positive articles, if you want something to worry about, think about the guys you aren't hearing about.

Alex Rios set to rebound in 2010
QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 11:56 AM) Of course Coop is gonna say Rios is going to do well next year. What else is he gonna say? "Yea, we're spending millions on him over the next few years and we fully expect him to suck to high heaven," There is a difference between saying this about Rios, and say Jermaine Dye.

Official 2009-2010 NHL Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 11:07 AM) JR was on Waddle and Silvy today and said the Hawks won't win the Cup without getting a better goaltender. I think the Hawks should give Niemi the #1 duties for a solid period of time before jumping to that conclusion, however. If the Wings can win with Osgood, the Hawks can win with Huet.

For $500k, I am not worried at all. If he sucks, cut him. If we get something out of him, we are golden.

Tim Tebow to appear in anti-abortion Super Bowl ad
QUOTE (Soxy @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 09:57 AM) But it's giving implicit support of his views. It's like saying, oh hey let's let the Hitler Foundation make a commercial about the clean air act. Um, no. That is a tough call to go back to associations... We elected President's despite their associations with all kinds of nasty people and subjects.

Financial News
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 08:33 AM) Could you cite for me a few examples of that actually happening in the Stimulus package? Yeah, if you can't find them, you need to read something other than the same crap you have been reading. This whole "do my homework for me or you are wrong" thing is just stupid.

The Republican Thread
QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 08:31 AM) I think he was talking about the comments made by Olbermann being completely intolerant, from the guy/party who does nothing but talk about tolerance. Bingo. Honestly, I wasn't even going to bother. But yeah, that is it.

Financial News
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 08:29 AM) Please spell out how this is different? I think you're going to argue somehow that the current stimulus isn't temporary or something along those lines, which thoroughly confuses me because like 99% of it would be spent within that 3 year timetable i gave you anyway. Creating government agencies and programs is not stimulus spending, and neither are unfunded mandates.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 08:26 AM) And if we dumped $500 billion over the next 3 years into alternative energy, would it be or would it not be the very definition of that? Could be. It depends on how it was done. I am guessing if it was done the way that the rest of this was done, not really.

White Sox agree to terms with Tony Pena
QUOTE (since56 @ Jan 19, 2010 -> 06:02 PM) He is ok, but doesn't excite me. Some one remind me why we let Carrasco go? He did a great job for us. Its pretty obvious people expect him to flop at some time in the near future.

Financial News
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2010 -> 08:23 AM) So are you literally arguing that defense spending is better stimulus than say, infrastructure spending? I am literally arguing that WWII spending was the very definition of stimulus spending.
