I would give you a million other books I would rather read then the Quran. I don't need to read through hundreds of pages of "praise Allah" to somehow open my view to the world. Many of the verses are translated through interpretation. Some people might think "Wash your yourself in the blood of the infidels" as a hearwarming welcoming to the peaceful religion of Islam. Dont think Im attacking the religion (all muslims arent terrorists I KNOW), I just believe these suicide bombers are wrong for killing themselves for what a book says. 19 highjackers on 9/11 sure believed they were about to meet a lot of brown eyed virgins in the afterlife........ You cant even compare the extremists who live their life off the Bible compared to the Quran.... White power movement.......how many of them exist today; half a million. Lets try to count the number of people that live their lives based on the teachings of the Quran. I would say there are easily 50 million muslims that believe suicide bombers are right in their beliefs AND wouldnt mind strapping some C4 to their chests. OK, if too narrow to actually read and understand the context of the Quaran, read the old testament. (Tell me how many "Praise the Lord's" you see in there.) Tell me what kind of image that portrays. Where do you think the original "eye for an eye" came from? It wasn't Islam. If you read the rules of Jihad, the highjackers broke many of them and even in their own religion wouldn't be bound for eternity. And yes I can compare extremists with extremists. Many, many groups have hijacked Christianity, the sameway that people hijack Islam for their own personal gains. And lets count the number of "Christians" who live their lives according to the bible. 99% of Christians have no idea what their rules of life are supposed to be, they have no idea what the 10 commandments are, they have no idea what the 7 deadly sins are, they have no idea that they have responsibilities under God, they have no idea what a church is supposed to be. And I could keep going, but there isn't much point. If you aren't going to be cultured enough to understand what you are criticizing, at least know something about what you are defending.

If I was starting a team, I would pick Zito first because of Pedro's injuries. His body is breaking down before our very eyes. Now if it was at 100% you have to take Pedro. For tonight, I am going to take Zito.

Pay is the easiest measure of a players rating. But with Jeter they are already talking about him as HOF type player, which is a joke.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1631723 Well this will give guys like Robinson, Mason and Hinrich a chance to get some PT.

Well there is when he tries to fix code on the sight...

Sore shoulder or not, Jeter is not a $19 million (3rd higest paid) player. There are at least 3 SS's alone i would take over Jeter, and probably 25 MLers I would take over him.

Actually you do need to read the Quaran to realize that these people represent Islam the same way that the White Power movement represents the Bible. Get out and read somemore and get out of that narrow world view.

Someone forward this to Jerry.

Where is Sammy's game 4 HR? Oh wait that a premature hop... nevermind

I know it is. But it is exactly what is going to happen. If we really wanted to send a statement we would quit helping them, and we would step in and stop the Palestinian terrorist groups from killing innocent Israelies.

And this is the effect it has on the people around them...

Cry me a river Texas boy. Get over your first freeze, then complain to me about the winter.

LMAO, since the league office reverses calls all of the time. :fthecubs

Why do you hate the Yankees so much? We should all hate the Yankees, they are the second evil empire behind the cubs. No there is a reason I am asking BH this question...

And the thing is the US is hypocraticical if they say anything about this, because how many times have we attack sovreign nations on our own, in the name of antiterrorism?

That kind of stuff is true in any industry. Look at baseball salaries over the last 3 years. They have come down. In 2000 no one would have said a word about Dick Grasso's paycheck, now it is a big deal. The airlines were hitting record high paychecks in the late 90's, now most of the industry is bankrupt...

Probably couldn't tell you the score of last nights game without looking at the Trib either...

Out of curiousity, anybody know if there are any longer HS or college FG's?

That was interesting. Really shows how intraverted he was. The guy would have been a complete reject if he didn't play basketball.

Well they aren't going to parade Jim Carrey out there to say "oh I used to make $20 mil a pic, and now I only make $10 mil. Please don't pirate movies" So of course they drag out the guys who have been underpaid by the same industry that is now exploiting them so that you feel sorry for them. Hopefully people see through this obvious BS.

This is going to be a playoff classic I have a feeling...

There is a reason I hardly see any movies or buy any CD's anymore, and that is because almost all of it is complete CRAP!

Great the league is full, and the Draft is Sunday at 4:30 PM Chicago time, and it is a live draft. Hopefully we see everybody there to make the draft move a little faster.

Why do you hate the Yankees so much?

It would be just like watching Sammy and his premature hops. Settle down boys...
