You'd have to understand how ignorant half the crap you say sounds, before you could cry over it.

UN gives Sudan 30 days to halt violence
Problem was they had to lighten the language to make all of the countries pass this resolution. I guess 30,000 dead so far, along with 1.5 million refugees isn't reason enough to get tough. God the UN has so outlived its usefulness. http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/africa/07/31...udan/index.html

Your brushes with greatness
Trying to remember some of these... I think the most impressive one was getting thrown out of the Indiana capital building by then Governor and now Senator Evan Bayh. I have had many different contacts with Bryce and Homer Drew Met Bobby Knight on a recruiting visit to my HS As a kid I met one of the scientists who was working on the Space Shuttle heat tiles when they were still having big problems with them early on. Also went to school with some kids of astronauts, and met their dads, but didn't know at the time they would be going to space. Had a now Stanley Cup champion goon want to kick the s*** out of me. I know there is more, but I'll edit later if so...

Elo Could of Been a Met
Like I said if Kazmir were offered for ELo. KW should have asked how high he had to jump to get the deal done.
-
Would you do this?
I think after this year of being treated like a 2nd class citizen, Nomar would jump if someone showed him some love. You can tell the guys ego is so bruised. I think if JR called him after this season and said that we want you to be the face of the Chicago White Sox, this could happen. He would give it some thought, coupled with the fact that Tellum has a known ownership commodity in JR, it might be enough to push geographic situations aside.

Possibility of AAA Charlotte Moving?
Even if Gary wanted a AAA team, it is too small, as is its stadium. It would need to be about twice the size it is to hold the # of fans to support the payroll of a AAA team
-
Would you do this?
Yes and no. I would do the deal in a vaccuum. But I really get the feeling that the Sox are going to try to make a run at Nomar in the off season. Remember Art Tellum is Nomar's agent, who is also Frank's agent, with whom JR has an awesome relationship. Contracts have always been pretty easy and clear between the two. Even when there were problems they were solved quickly. Also being someone that is an easy sign, and a good clubhouse guy, could make JR and co extend the payroll to get him. Plus seeing how Maggs is probably gone, I think JR knows he has to sign someone big to replace him. Guys like Beltran and Berkman aren't going to happen, and a guy like Nomar might.

Suggestion: No more "Borchard Sucks" Threads
This is very good advice. Hang out in the sports bar and SLaP. Have some fun instead. I only read here because I have to. But we all know that when it rains, all the worms come up from underground.

Suggestion: No more "Borchard Sucks" Threads
Actually I have pretty much had it with all the assinine sucks threads... We are playing bad baseball, no s***. There isn't some great need to waste bandwidth just so you yourself can try to call attention to yourself by making a new thread about something stupid.
