What would decent reliever cost us?
Keep in mind, last year the Marlins were asking for Brandon McCarthy for Ron Villone.

Favorite Food at the Ballpark?
QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 02:36 PM) Eww. Does Ang know about this..? She's usually Southpaw QUOTE(SnB @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 02:37 PM) ps: they really need to have corn ON the cob. Especially if it was grilled taste of chicago style. I would get it everytime. Corn on the Cob is a fair fav of mine, and I would buy it everytime at the ballpark.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 02:09 PM) Can we start talking about how true fans don't use ketchup on their hotdogs then? That was a fun conversation. How about people who put ketchup on their brats?

Coulter calls 9/11 widows "witches"
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 01:56 PM) Which, of course, is why she's constantly on MSNBC, Fox News, and now even NBC. I'd venture to say in many of these cases, you get more people from the opposite side of the aisle looking to jump on her every word, versus people from the same side of the aisle who actually view her as relevant.

For Dems only.
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 01:36 PM) So the question now is, assuming nothing changes in the near future, will Leopold burn his sources as punishment for burning him? Or will he go Leopold and Loeb on them?

Carlos Lee??
I think when Ozzie said he slid into second like his wife was playing SS, that pretty much ended any chance of Carlos playing for Ozzie/Kenny.

Comedians
QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:15 PM) Am I the only one who doesn't find Dane Cook too funny? I think he's very energetic and everything and some stuff he does gets me to laugh, but for the most part, I dont think his material is that good. EDIT: George Carlin is the best ever. 70's and 80's Carlin is untouched by anyone IMO.

Should the KKK be allowed to protest at historical sites?
QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 12:13 PM) That's exactly what I mean. Serious question here, and maybe I just don't get it because I am a white male... Why is it wrong for the Klan to demand white preferential treatment, but OK when it is for any other race???

Quotations of the Month!
From the angles of the seats thread... QUOTE(zach23 @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 11:48 AM) Why don't the Sox just realize that there are some things that need to be done so that ALL fans are happy ALL the time. They just need to do the following: Change all the seats so that they change color depending on the person looking at them. So if someone likes blue or green or red, or whatever else, the seats will read their mind and change to that color just for them. Others looking at them will see the color they like. Charge only what each individual person is willing to pay for admission and personally deliver the tickets to them when it is convienent for them. If someone doesn't want to pay, let them in free and they should be able to sit in the best seat even if there is someone else that wants to sit there. The Sox just have to figure out how to get everyone into the seat they want at all times. Make it so that all seats point in the direction that all people like at all times with no obstructions. The seats must be soft enough for those that like soft and firm enough for those that like firm. Get every player that every fan wants regardless of cost or roster size. If that player then doesn't perform to the satisfaction of any fan anywhere, get rid of him and get better players. The Sox should have a team that always goes 162-0 and wins every World Series. Every fan in the park should see the lineup they want to see even if that means 30 guys must be in the starting lineup. The Sox must simply figure out how to get that to work. Everyone must get to park for free right next to the stadium. Everyone should be allowed to show up 5 minutes before game time and still be able to get in to see the first pitch. There should also be lots of bars and restaurants real close to the park, but there must still be parking lots for everyone as well, and the bars and restaurants must not turn the neighborhood into Wrigleyville. For those that hate bars and restaurants, they must be invisible. For those that walk to the park and hate parking lots, the lots must be invisible and they should be able to see nice houses and trees. The Sox should have every announcer and commentator on earth on the payroll doing their own play-by-play and commentary. The fans can then choose from 1000 different radio stations to hear only the play-by-play and color commentator that they want to hear. Same with TV. Every newspaper must write only about the Sox. Every sports radio station must only talk about the Sox. The stadium must be willing to morph into different stadiums for each fan's taste. If one person likes the old Comiskey better then it should morph into that. If they like the old park but with the new park's concourse, then it should do that. If someone likes seeing the skyline, then the park must rotate so they can. Nobody should wait in any line for anything. Vendors should be able to read everyone's mind and bring them the food they want immediatley. Each fan should have a personal vendor for each type of food and beverage and their own personal restroom. Every type of food and beverage ever created should be available with a vendor to personnaly serve it to each fan. The fans should decide if they want to pay anything or eat and drink for free. If the Sox would just stop being so cheap and address these things then everyone would be happy.

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 11:53 AM) That's why the real bigots are wearing suits and trying to make discrimination legal through unconstitutional laws and statewide referendum. After all, you don't have to wear a sheet to be a bigot at the polls. You mean like publically stating only one race should hold a public office? http://www.chicagotribune.com/features/hea...1,1416390.story

Books
Right now I am reading Jews and Arabs, and I forget the author, but it is all about going back through the historical relationships between Jewish people within Arab communites ever since the emergence of Islam, and looking at some of the myths, legends, and facts that are involved in that. So far it is very good.

Shuttle inspection added to be done in flight
QUOTE(YASNY @ Jun 13, 2006 -> 10:51 AM) I'm hoping the Shuttle takes off the first week of July. I'll be in Orlando and have a close friend in Cape. Would be cool to run over there and watch. I got to watch a night launch from Daytona and it was incredible. I would love to be at the Cape for a real launch one of these days...
