I like the play because Aaron was erring on the side of aggresion. Most players go halfway and retreat to first after the ball is caught. Instead Aaron was making sure that what he thought was going to be an out, was going to be productive. He was makings sure that he was going to get into second base and into scoring position come hell or high water. It is a split second judgement call that has to be made quickly, and as one of the best CFs in the game today, I trust his judgement on if he thinks an OF can get to a ball or not.

You are lucky I am a Soxtalk Admin and we aren't allowed to ban anyone without a tribal council meeting, or your torches would sooooo be extinguished by now

No word as to who is will be though.... As the resident economist, I am all kinds of excited [adjusts bowtie]

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 09:00 AM) Making God Bless America a new “tradition” at sports venues is a bad idea. If it ever really had any meaning for a mass sports audience, it faded within a few of months after 9/11/2001. But having Gene Honda instruct everyone in attendance to stand “for a show of patriotism” for this Irving Berlin ditty is downright presumptuous, insulting and shallow. (Not quite as peculiar as those times when we’re instructed to stand “for your Chevy Pride Crew,” though.) In place of God Bless America, I suggest the PA announcer request a moment of silence while he reads the names of our service members killed that week in service to their country. THAT might be a show of respect for the real patriots. SHE'S A COMMIE!! SHE HATES AMERICA!!

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Oct 23, 2005 -> 11:07 PM) With that miracle off the bat of Podsednik, we can afford to take the loss against Oswalt the Unhittable. But, with that miracle off the bat of Podsednik, who knows what will happen. Everything is possible now. Wow, that was almost optimistic. There wasn't even a flat out loss prediction in there anywhere... Maybe I should be scared

That game was like a heavy weight title fight, both teams kept throwing haymakers and the other team would answer back everytime. Incredible.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 07:22 AM) I don't give a damn what ESPN, ESPN NEWS, Mike and Mike, the idiots at Fox, or anybody else has to say one way or another. This team is two wins away from a title. There's not a damn thing anybody can say to taint this for me. Thank you. Seriously. WHO GIVES A DAMN WHAT THEY THINK???? We are two wins away from being World Champions, and I am not going to let some two bit pundit take anything away from that!

How incredible was that? I luv Pods.

HUGE fan of the Nike Shox. They last forever.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) This is extremely easy to answer. How much temptation & peer pressure does a child face on a daily basis to pick up a gun or engage in violence? Now ask the same question in relation to health. You may view sexually active minors & kids as being healthy behavior. Many people including myself strongly disagree with that. Spend a week in an urban High School setting and then laugh at the ignorance of what you just said. There is PLENTY of violence that goes on in schools. Way more than ever gets talked about because the High Schools don't report it, because they don't want to look bad. Trust me, I know first hand it happens.

Happy Birthday guys

That's just sad. Seriously. Its sad to see kids so young indoctrinated with hate.

Was this the same Washington paper that reported Cheney was resigning after being indicted the next day?

I got a big kick out of the people who made the "Don't stop believin" signs LMAO.

Good. Resign. Get the f*** out of the senate. We don't need those kind of people in it anyway.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 02:27 PM) I could be wrong, but I think he was talking about local control of public education, rather than universal public education, as being something the Republicans would claim was enshrined in the consitution. Was it even that much originally? Wasn't most education done at home in the 18th century?

QUOTE(Mercy! @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 02:11 PM) Then you can’t be either a conservative or a Republican. The school system in Lexington, MA is functioning exactly how our system of government intended. Did the forefathers intend public education for every child in this country through age 16? Some how I don't believe that.

It was the Rally Crede who decided that a World Series could only include teams from the USA.
