    Good question, do we need a search committee?
  2. With 40 supenas under wraps, there are going to be some big names coming out. This could really ruin some lives and careers.
  3. The problem is nothing is supposed to be said.
  4. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/doc_o_day/doc_o_day.html Here is a copy of it. It is at the bottom of the page.
  5. Evidently the Yankees lost http://www.msnbc.com/news/981784.asp?0cv=CB20
  6. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor.../life_redsox_dc
  7. The Marlins one is the best one. Although you could have put Cubs fans in that pic and it would have been the same...
  8. Why anyone continues to read that idiots lies, BS, andother assorted color by numbers articles, I'll never know.
  9. The big part of this is dealing with the track and field athletes, using undetectable steroids. Yeah, this could get really interesting if it starts involving pro athletes in sports where roids are banned.

  11. http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=1640228 So now the Wings will just have to suffer along with their ordinary all-stars... And it couldn't have happened to a nicer goon.
  12. And I'll bet the guy involved gets nothing out of it...

  15. Blew out his arm IIRC. It would have been "routine" shoulder surgery where he would have been out and rehabbing for about a year, then he would have been back to his old self, if he played in today's game.
  16. I know, I just liked the analogy. The best was one day when I was on ESPN, someone drug and copied a post and managed to include their IP adress and couldn't understand why it was such a big deal. Then within 5 minutes someone has his name address phone number and where he worked. He learned the importance of an IP real quick.
  17. So instead of letting just break in and steal the car, you just give him the keys because he is just going to steal it anyway???
  18. What about the guys at the turn of the century who often started 50 or more games and pitched 400 or more innings? Even if you concede they didn't throw as hard that is still a lot of strain on an arm. Obviously they were tougher and more durable. As recently as 20 or 25 years ago stud pitchers would work 300+ innings. What has happened? Why are todays pitchers so fragile? Prior and Pedro couldn't close out a tough 8th inning and because of it their teams are on the outside looking in. As far as Koufax goes, his arthtritis may have been genetic, or brought on by the strain of pitching or a little bit of both. They didn't throw as hard, they didn't have different arm angles, and the didnt have the pitches that do the most damage to the elbow and the shoulder such as the slider, the split fingered fastball, the cutter, the screwball, etc... Pitchers also didn't throw in between starts like they do now, not to mention the fact that there are probably triple the amount of pitchers in MLB that there were at the turn of the century when there were half as many teams, and way less pitchers on a roster. Plus they didn't have the sophisticated arm surgeries that they have now, so that when a pitcher blew out his arm he was done. There was no coming back. So you didn't have injury history's the way you do now. I am sure there are pitchers like Clemens who could throw 350 innings if things were done like they were back in the day.
  19. And I have never been so happy to be wrong in my life. Hopefully it works again
  20. Actually the Angels are kind of in the same boat that we are with the Dodgers. They are in the same market, and are the red headed step child of it.
  21. And it never hurts to delete your cookies and temp internet files.
