QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 12:14 PM) i thought we had to keep him on the 25 man roster or not offer him back to the angels.. or is he officially with the sox? He has to stay on the 40 man roster. We don't have to offer him back to Anaheim if we take him off of the 40 man, he would have to clear waivers at that point.

Anyone remember who league two's commish was???

I just recently started on the Paul McCartney boards, but other than that, this is my message board home (as if that wasn't obvious). Most of my other on-line activities involved reading other news sites and blogs. Some of my favs include a couple of really good blogs of guys on here, drudge, poorandstupid, google news, cnn, msnbc, and espn.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 11:13 AM) So, would Chicago have the world's tallest buiding again? More importantly, when do we get the casinos?? Just for perspectives sake, the Sears Tower measures in at 1450 feet tall...

This comes under the guise of proofread your articles http://www.nbc5.com/news/4184303/detail.ht...994&dppid=65192 By my calculations that should make the building 12,815 feet tall. Petronas Towers take that!!!

QUOTE(upnorthsox @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 04:30 AM) So then our analysis for '04 to '05 should be that we finish 9 games back of the Twins? It wouldn't surprise me that's for sure....

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 08:04 AM) SB.. In a nutshell she said that while the publishing company likely has a disclaimer on the book that they can (and will in her opinion) be sued for negligence, and they will lose unless the claims can't be proven. That, of course, will be up to a jury as to what they define and determine as "proof". One interesting thing is that the publisher initially said no way to the book. After investigators looked into Jose's claims they changed their minds. It all boils down to anyone can sue for anything. It's a gamble on what a jury will decide. She apologized for not being more detailed but she's a bit busy. But she did say she'd answer questions if there were any more. She also wanted to stress that she is not a publishing attny and her answers are based on case law that she has access to. So if no one sues, you know there is pretty much fire underneath that smoke...

OK lets start to get serious here.... These were the leagues from last year.

As League 1 and League 4 commish, my first priority is to keep leagues together who want to stay together. I don't know how the rest of the leagues feel, or who all of the comishes were, but if others feel the sameway, I would encourage them to keep as many of the old people in their leagues. If people want to switch out, feel free. All of the people who were in league one and want to stay, please post it. If you have interest in being in another league let me know, so we can look at filling the spot. Also I would love it if someone wanted to take over as League 4 commish, that way I can concentrate on the one league. So lets start seeing the serious interest in the leagues and get people signed up!

QUOTE(Texsox @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 07:54 AM) WalMart survives and thrives by low prices. They negotiate hard with their suppliers as well. It would be interesting to see what their margins look like.

QUOTE(Purdue129 @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 12:36 AM) David Cross was on Jimmy Kimmel tonight and said the show has stopped production entirely. He said he first heard about it on the internet, not from Fox. Hopefully this is just David Cross being David Cross. Son of a b**** :banghead f*** Fox.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Feb 9, 2005 -> 08:55 PM) It's been less than a 100 years since this country started letting women vote. Same for Canada I believe (iirc New Zealand was the first country to let women vote and that was as "early" as 1906/8/something). We're aren't so progressive as we think. EDIT: Sorry, NZ was first, 1893. Australia was the first to let women vote AND be in parliment/congress in 1902. "In the politics of a democracy there should be no sex. A woman without a vote is an inferior, and thereby liable to be so regarded." Maybanke Anderson, The Sun, 6 July 1912. I was thinking the samething in regards to the US. I didn't realize that basically all of the rest of the formerly British world basically walked down the same path. Was it the same way in regards to minorities? Did they withhold the right to vote from groups (such as blacks) also?

Serious question. How much intelligence do people think there is in regards to different types of terror attacks in different specific areas, targeting specific places sitting on these peoples desks right now? Especially after all of the interogating we have done, I'll bet there are reams of info on just about every target and method imaginable. Nuke plants, bio facilities, water supplies, landmarks, buildings, harbors, airports, hospitals, infrastructure etc... I'll bet it is all out there. How would you prepare for all of that? If we had 52 warnings before something happens, how many 10's of thousands of things are we sitting on now? I would be curious to see in these 52 warnings, were specific airlines/airports targeted? How many different ones were described if any? Was it just the east coast, or did they have wind of the full plot involving west coast airlines as well. And most importantly if we had a near blueprint of their plan, and had gone before Congress with it to request funding to protect against it, would it have ever even gotten out of committee? Somehow I doubt it The article states that no where in the warnings was a 9-11 style attack described, so what were the suicide attacks that were described? And what were the airport/airline warnings regarding? And if the airlines were given warnings, which this seems to indicate, and the airlines did nothing with the warnings, how should the government have responded? What recourse did they have? Could they have demanded more inspections and checkpoints? Could they have required closer passenger screening? This article raises a lot more questions than it answers for me.

Until Frank gets back, I would like to see it be Aaron. It will probably be Dye though.
