- KW: Joe Cowley a Liar
QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Oct 7, 2011 -> 04:25 PM) Hey did KW really make the comment that Ventura's going to learn on the job? I'm trying to confirm that. During the conference call he made out clear that they expect a learning curve- The Democrat Thread
Endless forever war!- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Oct 7, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) Terry kind of led Robin into a comment that makes it sound like it was the White Sox idea to have him manage -- not Robin's. I thought Robin made that pretty clear on yesterday's call.- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 7, 2011 -> 12:38 PM) All of your evidence that he'll do this is absolutely spectacular. Well one of them (video room) is a simple policy so I don't know why you'd doubt that's what he'll do. "Hold players accountable" is a platitude, though.- KW: Joe Cowley a Liar
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 7, 2011 -> 12:39 PM) He worked under Jay Mariotti and learned his trade. There really isn't much more that can be said. Get yourself thrown out of locker rooms and cut off from almost all sources and then use that to justify your s***ty fact-free "journalism"- Catch All Anything Thread
That's pretty awful. There's plenty of no-kill shelters, rescue societies, etc. that take any and all animals. IIRC alphadog or someone in his family works at a shelter and might be able to help you find a home for him.- 2011 TV Thread
I watched the season premier of the Office earlier today, don't think I'll be watching any more.- Catch All Anything Thread
He's killing your dog because it was peeing in the house?- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
Honestly the best part of this is that now we don't have to endure a single additional twitter "leak" or "rumor" of who's getting the job.- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 6, 2011 -> 09:23 PM) Probably that he likes to be home in CA and really doesn't need to work, but if you want to make it worthwhile.......................... Yeah, it's not like he's desperate for a job. His leverage is "ok, I'll stay at home with my millions of dollars and my family"- Republican 2012 Nomination Thread
Her personal PR spokesman Gretta Van Sustrenn is a liebral traitor who works for left-wing media mogul Roger Ailes.- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 6, 2011 -> 09:21 PM) It's funny cause Cowley is a bad journalist. This. Guys, its MLB manager. The decisions aren't hard with modern day stats ready 24/7, unless you're Ozzie. If he can help people, which he has enough baseball knowledge and seemingly-not-asshole persona that he probably can. Is it the best hire? No. He would have been my fourth choice, but come on. SoxTalk should make him a FanGraphs-based iPad app that he can use in the dugout. It can also be linked to game threads/chats.- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager
It wasn't a press conference. It was a conference call. Substantial difference. Bernstein did point out right afterwards that this is as excited and animated as Ventura gets, however. I dunno, I see the OUTRAGE! behind this move, it's certainly unexpected and Kenny's 10 minute explanation rang hollow. But I'm not writing off the 2012 team because of it.- Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager

My standard for the death penalty is impossibly high. That's a feature, not a bug. Based on the documented and studied unreliability of eyewitness testimony, I don't believe it is ever enough to sentence someone to death on its own. I'm not convinced he was innocent. I'm not convinced their recantations were honest. I'm not convinced that they actually were coerced. But I'm even less convinced that Troy Davis was the murderer beyond a reasonable doubt.- The Democrat Thread
The only angle he was convicted on was witness testimony as there was no physical evidence or murder weapon.- Republican 2012 Nomination Thread
Fox News gave her her own show. As did Discovery Channel. Are they part of the left-wing hate machine?- Republican 2012 Nomination Thread
I mean the right who gave her a TV show on their biggest media voice. Here's a poll from May with her a tick behind Romney: http://www.gallup.com/poll/147806/romney-p...field-2012.aspx- Official 2011-2012 NFL Thread

Is there a good Oregon Trail app on the Android market? I couldn't find one. Also my Sony GoogleTV looks like a iMac design rip-off. There's no denying that the man who built and later revitalized what is now one of the most valuable companies in the world has impacted all of our lives. - KW: Joe Cowley a Liar
