Big Hurt still hurt
It was interesting that Macha didn't seem to know Frank's plan for Frank. I didn't see anyone else mention that, but it was the one thing that jumped out of the article at me.

Dubai Ports selling out
A couple of interesting quotes from James Jay Carafano from the Heritage Foundation. http://www.americandaughter.com/index.html...r.com/index.php And http://www.heritage.org/Research/HomelandDefense/wm997.cfm This From Dick Meyer at CBS.com http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/02/22/...in1335531.shtml Looks like we sold out long ago, and to governments who are a lot less cooperative than the UAE.

Catch-All Anything Thread
QUOTE(Soxy @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 02:43 PM) I like Paris and that girl that sang last (Katherine, I think). Of them I think Katherine is my fave. Taylor (the grey haired guy) is totally my favorite. He's the only person on tv that is as socially awkward as most of the people I hang out with. Ace, well, um, he's very nice to look at. He can sing well, but he's much more fun to look at, his brother was also equally hot. Taylor, that's it... I love his voice. It just has the blues feeling to it, and I love that kind of music. Melissa is the other girl I couldn't think of, I think she preformed right before Katherine on Tuesday nite.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 12:18 PM) I'm totally addicted to American Idol. I am forced to watch it religiously. Its either that or listen to grief when my shows (aka the White Sox) are on Who is your favorites so far? Out of the girls, Paris, Mandesa and the brunette who modeled are the best, along with Ace and Travis (the grey haired dude) of the guys.

FCC may declare "Shit" a banned word
s*** used to be one of the seven words you couldn't say on radio or TV, but that kinda went by the wayside. Interesting to see they are talking about bringing it back.

Dubai Ports selling out
QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 02:35 PM) No. Just don't want foreign state-owned companies controlling our infrastructure. Then what do opinion polls have to do with that? Would it have been OK after 9/11 when the whole world held a favorable opinion of the US?

Dubai Ports selling out
QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 02:25 PM) I know this is a stretch but I compare it to letting a state-owned German company take over a port in Poland in the 30s. So are you proposing quit doing business in China, France, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, etc? http://pewglobal.org/reports/display.php?ReportID=247

Dubai Ports selling out
QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 01:58 PM) Granted this is 2 years old but just shows you the attitude of the people of the UAE. Why do we want a company that is owned by a goverment, where the people hate Americans, control our ports?? "Arab/Islamic hostility toward American policy translates into enmity for the U.S. as a whole. A March 2004 Pew Research Center poll of four Muslim countries found unfavorable views of the U.S. outnumbering favorable views by 61 to 21 percent in Pakistan, 63 percent to 30 percent in Turkey, 68 to 27 percent in Morocco, and a remarkable 93 percent to 5 percent in Jordan. A Zogby International study taken three months later found even deeper hostility toward the United States in six Arab states: those with unfavorable views of the U.S. outnumbered those with favorable views by 69 percent to 20 percent in Lebanon, 73 percent to 14 percent in the UAE, 88 percent to 11 percent in Morocco, 78 percent to 15 percent in Jordan, 94 percent to 4 percent in Saudi Arabia, and 98 percent to 2 percent in Egypt." Source: http://www.zogby.com/Soundbites/ReadClips.dbm?ID=12645 I'm not quite sure what you are saying, but is it that we shouldn't be doing business with companies in countries that have unfavorable views of us?

Yahoo Trade Veto
The injury factor is huge when considering both Griffey and Wilson. I would say the guy who got ARod won the trade, but for the other guy, he is a getting a lot of solid players, which could really serve to upgrade and balance a roster, with only losing two probably big contributors.
