Musta sat next to Newt.

I hadn't thought about Nen, what is his contract status?

I also would be interested in seeing the Sox look into Bob Wickman.

Varitek is looking for 5 years, $55 million and a no trade clause. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1924536

They can't afford it. As I said before, there are only two ways to "save" social security. One raise taxes or two find more people to work and pay into the system.

LMAO!

He also wouldn't have gotten a 2 year $10 million offer from the Sox either...

I think he is on the invitation list right next to Kenneth Starr

You mean Al Gore who refused to use Clinton on the campaign trail, and probably cost himself the election?

Harris hit .218 in September. If anything those numbers hurt his final #'s. Even if you include the 4-7 he had in October, that brings him to just under .250 for that span.

Oh lord, I shouldn't have said anything... Look at the math of the CBO, and then get back to me.

Alan Greenspan has been testifying about this in front of congress and anyone else who will listen for years. But I guess since pretty colors and charts tell the story easier, the USA today will do if it gets the point accross to people. There.is.no.fixing.social.security.

Good follow up Jim!

Pick a conspiracy, any conspiracy

And I think very possible. Its no secret the Yankees don't have enough prospects to get the job done. The White Sox do. They have also done the 3 way dance with the Yankees before in the Bartolo Colon deal.

Social Security "reform" now there is an oxymoron. There are two ways to "save" social security. You either have to have more people working than retired, or you have to raise taxes on the people who are working in order to pay the benefits promised. There is no magic bullet to saving things. Social Security is a pyramid scheme of the highest nature, that depends essentially on population of people working that grows faster than the population of retirees. The problem is the baby boomers are starting to retire, and this won't be possible anymore. There is no "fixing" the problem no matter what the lies the pols tell.

You "heard" it huh... we all know what that is worth...

After listening to Ozzie and Kenny talk about Crede, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Crede ended up in the Kendall or Johnson deals.

Spot on mate, spot on. No worries

Damn my 15 win prediction might be too high. Can they at least win more than 9 games

Who, TO?
