QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 03:47 PM) whitehouse.com is awesome! I love seeing what the president is up to! Glad to see that it is no longer a porn site.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 04:05 PM) His campaign is bad because he is a bad candidate. Rudy Guilliani just isn't a Presidential person. Being a Mayor seems like the zenith of his career. Just like Richie.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 03:44 PM) Of course... CNN will say that all the way to the convention. And if they declare a winner or project the front runner they are influencing the election. No way for them to win.

The top. #1. Best. However you define it. I did not include the obvious choice soxtalk or any of the porn sites (which I have no idea about)

Hey, I'm starting to think this may have something to do with my lazy postal carrier being late delivering my mail today.

The past week I've been getting this almost daily from the McCain campaign. Seems as if he's really targeting this as a make or keep fighting moment. I wish I had a week to go. Seems like a really neat experience.

Little by little, piece by piece. The starting rotation needs to catch lightening. I don't see a way now to bolster the starters without digging a hole elsewhere.

I am humbled whenever I read MLK's biography.

I was turned off by Rudy from the moment he filed. Never have liked him. Must be candidates from New York.

I always vote early in Texas. Usually one of the final days of early voting. At least in local elections we tend to have some election day surprises that may or may not prove to be true.

We have one intersection that is used by individuals and groups wishing to get noticed. Some would call it "cazy corner". Bullhorns urging people to repent and be saved. Etc. etc. The Ron Paul supporters took up residence last weekend. The Texas primary is like six months away. I guess they want to have their moment in the sun and it may not be there later.

I use the name to line up the putt. Strike it square and life is good. Picked that up from Andy North at the Greater Milwaukee Open Pro-Am

which seems like never.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 11:26 AM) Yeah, in 5 seasons when he's about to be vastly overpaid via the free agent market. like I said, potential and these guys are cheap

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 11:22 AM) Like who? I see people hoping for aging expensive veterans like Contreras to improve so we can wisely get rid of them. I don't see anyone saying they hope Danks, Floyd, Jenks, Fields, Richar, Quentin, or Swisher have good seasons so we can trade them for prospects. As soon as they are close to signing their next contract, the comments come flying out.

I am trying to build up enough courage to listen to her. I turned her off months ago. I know it is not responsible, but I just can't listen to her.

I'm trying to remember if Colon left on good terms. IIRC he did, at least between him and management. I also recall him winning a couple key games down the stretch. I also remember a really funny song parody by ncorgbl

Break it Off

QUOTE(KevinM @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 10:22 AM) It's like arguing with a brick wall. I would say right now that Fields is more of a "sure thing" than Crede. Crede's the one who has "potential", considering he's coming off of back surgery. Fields is a safer bet, IMO. Even Crede's ceiling (2006) pales in comparison to Fields'. And hopefully Fields can develop well enough so we can trade him for more prospects. Which is the goal.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 10:50 AM) I line mine up so they are all parallel to each other before I eat them. Besides, size doesn't matter. Yep, I have to line them up, but from small to large.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jan 21, 2008 -> 10:22 AM) Latest poll shows that Giuliani is trailing by 12 points... IN NEW YORK. Toast. I never thought he had a chance. I'm not certain what faction of the GOP he was going to pull in. He could possibly be an interesting Veep choice, but that even seems far fetched. Perhaps a high profile cabinet position with McCain.
