QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) If the Cubs were completely healthy, they would be a better team than the Sox. Discuss. Yeah, you say this now that they've won 6 in a row? OK

Then, I seek reparations for the untimely deaths of my ancestors while defending the North and ending slavery.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 11:45 AM) I would. I wouldn't have a say in the matter. Most people are allowed to have personal political party affiliations even if the entity they work for cannot, unless clearly stipulated otherwise. That said, how hard is it to guess at the political leanings of groups like Amnesty or the ACLU – or the NRA – for that matter? Is it really a big shock that ranking members of an organization whose goal is to protect the human rights of prisoners don't support in their role as private citizens/voters/donors a president who considers the Geneva protocols antiquated and a nuisance? Just checking.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 11:12 AM) Two individuals, Schultz and Pitts, gave donations to those campaigns. Not Amnesty. Of course you would feel the same way if the tables were turned, right?

Whew! I made it! I read the entire thing. That's an hour I'll never get back.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 12:54 PM) Sad part is that this is the same lunch I have been eating for about 2 years now. lol It's gotta be pretty moldy by now, huh?

Anything solid on this? I got to page 8 and then the s*** hit the fane at work. I don't feel like reading 9 more pages of heresay.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 11:44 AM) Baked tortilla chips and celery (already finished the sammich). Oh yeah, I forgot. Diet for the wedding.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 11:33 AM) It doesn't hurt at all (the wire is actually staying put, but I am afraid to finish my lunch though). No, he's the only ortho in his office. It's been one of those days. What were you having for lunch? I might be interested.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 10:29 AM) Quick has season tickets up there. Definately give him a try. Real cool guy too, well except when you get him going about Willie Cool, I'll give him a shot.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 10:25 AM) I didn't steal it, but it is a REAL easy joke to make, so I am sure every single late night host has had that in their monologue this week once that news broke. It was in a stand up from a few years ago about somethign similar. Whatever.

What a bunch of morons. This is a breath of fresh air, FWIW:

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:26 AM) I've also heard that they are trying to get the Spice Girls back together. I am pretty sure that the starving in the world already said that they would gladly starve to death to avoid setting that hell upon the earth again. You stole that! I know I've heard that before.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:53 AM) Anyone remember when we played TB a few years ago on July Fourth. Carl Crawford and Koch.... :puke :puke :puke Hijacker!

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:46 AM) pm quickman, I think he's gotten rid of the 7/4 tix but it's worth a shot. That was 2 tickets for tonight's game, but thanks.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:43 AM) Half priced night is on July 4, too? Most of those exclude holidays. Memorial Day was half priced. And it's Tampa Bay. It should be half priced.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:26 AM) I got my one ticket for the Club Level on the 4th. The wife and kid are gonna be out of town, and I have to work right after the game, but it's gonna be SWEET. I know this reply doesn't really help you at all, Eye, but if it's any consolation, I do hope you find the tix you need. I really don't care where I sit, I just figured I'd reach for the stars. I haven't sat in the club level since they enclosed it and thought it would be cool for the fireworks after the game. Stub Hub has 4 for $86 ea. That's a little high for a half priced night.

Anyone got any available for Monday, July 4th? Preferably Club Level, but anything will do. Club Level is sold out and I figured I'd check here first before I check brokers. Oh yeah, I need 4. Thanks in advance.

Who's McCarthney?

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ May 31, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) Trying to piggy back on a neighbors open connection. If you can help me please PM. If you want to tell me I am a bad person...save it....I already know. Thanks Very Democrat of you.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 31, 2005 -> 08:42 AM) Definately some extra special love for our own guys Nuke, USAF, and SoxfaninBeverly who are taking care of us all :usa :usa Amen!

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 27, 2005 -> 07:24 AM) Or that any of it gets more coverage than people who are experiencing freedom of all kinds for the first time. OMG!

QUOTE(winodj @ May 26, 2005 -> 12:18 PM) Actually, yes I do bring them up a lot. I don't honestly think that they speak for anyone other than their fat wallets. They are both blowhards worthy of my derision. And I assume that they speak only for the idiots who parrot out all that they say, lock stock and barrel. Fair enough. I, personally don't mind either of them, but I think I have an intelligent enough mind to weed through the truth and bulls***. All the while, I understand that there are people that believe 100% of what they say. The same goes for lots of thing, including the major network news corps and Fox. I take them all with a grain of salt.

QUOTE(shakes @ May 26, 2005 -> 09:38 AM) Good Luck!!! And the same to you.

QUOTE(shakes @ May 25, 2005 -> 01:59 PM) I'm running. I haven't ran this race yet. It seems I have something to do every year. This is my first year as well.
