* Official Game Thread* Sox vs. Braves Game 1
They throw way too soon. You are supposed to narrow the gap down, and get them close to a base.

White Sox announce draft signings
WOW. That is practically their entire draft slate minus a few guys. BTW from the rumors floating around, the Sox and Fields are close and they are also throwing the enticement of sending Josh straight to Winston Salem if he signs quickly.

Who is this ...
OK guys. First answer me who should be left off of the roster pitching have made room for Ginter. Also who would be our back up CF since Timo wouldn't be here? What other LH bat would we have off of the bench?

Harold Reynolds
Bobby Hill was also a big kick in the nads for the Sox.

Props to Jim Bullard
Way to go Jim!!! Stop by and give us an update on the season soon!

Baseball Players Face Felony Charges
I am with you on that. But there is no need for jailtime. May them pay resitution and a fine, and then be done with it.

NHL
I have no doubt we have seen the last of hockey for a long time. Being a Blackhawks fan, my biggest regret in that the Wolves play all of the way up in Rosemont, and the Komets are 3 hours away.

Huggins too drinky
Throw the book at him, and fire him.

Arnie Munoz Will Likely Start on Saturday
I would hope so. NOthing against Arnie, but I want to be sure he is ready when he comes up.
-
Who is this ...
It cracks me up when this stuff happens. Ginter wasn't going to make this team, and even if he did, they were grooming him to close or set up out of the pen. Also remember how great Josh Fogg was for the first 3 months with the Pirates? What is he doing now? It is a much easier transition to make for an AL pitcher to go to the NL than vice versa. At least wait and see if Ginter crashes back to earth before annointing him Cy Young.

Right now, no doubt it is the Rocketman. In the future, ARod.

How far we have come
It makes perfect sense. Putin wants to be able to go in and crush rebellion in Chechnyia (I know I butchered the spelling) and doesn't want to have American opinion against him, so he is framing his problems just like Bush is in Iraq and Afganistan...IE a war on terror.

Presidential Poll: 6/10/2004
hmmm the war criminal and guy who takes money from forgein nationals for favors, or the guy who lied to the country about war? Serious question here. What the f*** happened to the moderates in this country? How hard is it to get an intelligent, mostly honest person to run for President, who is also in touch with reality? Why do we keep getting felons and treasonists to run for the highest office?

Signatures Wanted

Could we have a repeat of 2000?
When you say people do you mean each individual person, or do you mean all 35 million people vs all 6 million people of each respective state? If it is A, then it depends on which state has a higher or lower per capita income (depending on if you are talking about higher or lower marginal tax rates). If you are talking about B, the answer is pretty obvious.

Could we have a repeat of 2000?
Your electoral votes and number of state reps are one and the same. They are based on population, but the smallest of states are guarenteed a minimum number of both. Nationally both are capped at 535 and are divided amongst the country based on states total population.

Could we have a repeat of 2000?
And that all depends on what the law is. Immigration policy would affect California more, farm subsidies would affect IN more.
-
Could we have a repeat of 2000?
But you are forgetting the lessons of your history classes. This is the United STATES of America. The Great Compromise was to protect small states rights. That is why states like Wyoming have a disportionate say, because it is states rights that are being protected.

Favorite non-sox player
Barry Bonds or Vlad Guerrero, all though Robin Ventura might also qualify if you include ex-Sox players.

Could we have a repeat of 2000?
See Knights example. Or ponder this. The state of California has about 35.5 million people. Indiana has 6.2 million. Say that half of those people are registered voters. (for rounding sake say 17.8 mil in CA, and 3.1mil in IN) As long as 10.5 million or 58.9% of CA voters vote one way, the entire state of IN could vote the same way, and be it wouldn't matter a bit, because just under 60% of California feels the other way.

And in a popular vote, small states have no say at all, so their votes are worthless as well.
