QUOTE(winodj @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 01:37 PM) So does that mean that Paul Bremer should also be held accountable too since 9 billion dollars in Iraqi Oil Revenue went missing under his watch? That amount by the way is greater than the fraud committed in Oil for Food. Was it? I have read that Hussien himself made at least $10 billion from the 50 cents a a barrel kickbacks he was recieving. And as for Bremer, has any money been connected to him? To his son? To a genocidal dictator? As bribes to foreign governments? Sure he should be fired if they can't account for the $9 billion. That alone is indefensible. But this isn't even in the same league as bribing a world body.

I'm not going to paste this because I want to warn people that this is pretty powerful stuff before they choose to read it. http://kjo84.typepad.com/cta_tattler/2005/02/

And that last paragraph in a nutshell is why Tadahito Iguchi is playing here in Chicago and not in Japan for the next couple of years.

These are the rest of the players that express keeper interest... Zoomslownik HoosierSox Ishmookie Thompsonmi

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 12:57 PM) I know I just do not think that number of posts is a direct correleation to fantasy baseball activity. Post totals count other forums besides the main sports forums, so a person could be racking up huge totals in Sex, Lies, Politics, but rarely read and post in the sport forums. The only thing you can do is give people a chance and hope for the best, because last year when I got into league 2 I bet I only had 250 or so posts in 2 years. SB hey SB, you have a PM from me

2004 could be the worse year for earthquake related deaths since 1556 when an earthquake in China killed over 800,000 people. The other interesting thing is that the Indian Ocean quake was remeasured at an incredible 9.3 on the richter scale. http://www.livescience.com/forcesofnature/...uakes_2004.html

Yeah there are couple of guys in my league who have been in with me for 3 years now. Even though they aren't on here a lot, I already know they are good fantasy players. Looking at the sign ups there are a couple of those I know of, right off the top of my head.

The husbands story sounds just a little too convient for me. Who passes around child porn as if it is "normal" porno?

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 11:44 AM) Damn you're fast!!! Seriously though, I'm not going to fault the entire U.N. for the actions of a few assholes who prey on the weak. The real scandal is Oil for Food, which hurt far more people and may well reach to the top of the U.N. bureaucracy. Scratch out "may" with "does" and you have hit the nail on the head. Its a completely different ballgame when the peacekeepers on the ground do something stupid (granted this is waaaaaaaaaaay past that) and when the leaders of the world's organization that is supposed to be looking out for the world are taking bribes. That whole region of the world is so messed up right now. And no one really cares, which is the saddest part of all. There is genocide going on right now in the Sudan, and UN is too busy arguing whether 80,000 people dead fits the definition of "genocide"

Steff you have got to find a happier news site to read....

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 10:37 AM) They shoulda gotten rid of Minnesota and Montreal a few years back. There is no Montreal anymore, even though they are now Washington, but I hate the Twins and still am mad they weren't contracted. Les Spos would have been #1 on my list, but now that they are in Washington, I would give them 5 years or so to see if the fan base is there or not. If they don't take they would be in my top 4 in place of the Marlins. Maybe that new stadium deal will pull them through.

Who the F is voting for the Bears???

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 09:29 AM) I'm gonna take a stab here. Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, and 2 out of Kansas City, Milwaulkee or Cincinatti. Some surprises here. Tampa Bay, Minnesota, Oakland, and Florida. 3 of the 4 have winning teams and still can't draw fans. If the teams ever go bad, they won't draw more than 10K a night. Tampa was just a huge mistake for a team. They either move to Orlando or fold that dump of a franchise.

NFL style salary system and drug testing system. There are also at least 4 teams that need to go.

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 09:01 AM) My sister said people have been all over the news down there wanting to adopt him. A little light at the end of the tunnel for the little fella.. Its things like that, after stories like this one, that keep my faith in humanity.

LMFAO!!! That went much funnier than I expected

QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 08:22 AM) I guess we all agree that Shingo is a one inning pitcher. Someone email Ozzie and make sure he gets the word. I think Oz knew it too, but with the pen they had last year, he really didn't have any choices. With all of the problems he really had to try to use him when he didn't want to.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 08:12 AM) Yes, but we all remember KW and Ordonez sitting together at the ballpark after the injury. Yeah, I guess you gotta start somewhere... and when Borass is involved, it usually ends badly. Just ask the Astros.
