  1. the difference with this team making the playoffs or not will be luck, effort, and momentum, they have the talent.
  2. not certain how I feel about this.
  3. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 07:40 AM) They will have problems with the whole monopoly, no competition thing though. I am sure if they agreed to the merger, they know something we don't. I doubt they would put this much time and money into something, without reasonable expectations of it success. Damn, I think I just described the 2006 Cubs season in a nutshell!
  4. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 07:42 AM) For those who are asking this question... No, I do NOT work at IBM. Thank you. At least not anymore
  5. Linked And head shaking time for me: Education system? Education starts at home, and this woman should be spending time in prison, the same sentence her son receives.
  6. I have a couple other caps with that fabric and in the heat, they perform very well. Easily my favorite fabric and I am ordering one from mlb.com
  7. http://www.breitbart.com/news/2007/02/19/D8ND737G0.html MIAMI (AP) -- A premature baby that doctors say spent less time in the womb than any other surviving infant is to be released from a Florida hospital Tuesday. Amillia Sonja Taylor was just 9 1/2 inches long and weighed less than 10 ounces when she was born Oct. 24. She was delivered 21 weeks and six days after conception. Full-term births come after 37 to 40 weeks.
  8. I was just reading one article that pointed out that both companies are losing money. that should work in there favor.
  9. QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Feb 16, 2007 -> 03:31 PM) 4-6 days? My Cubs to English dictionary says "Spring Training May Start for Kerry Wood" Fixed it. In other news the Yankees and Rangers and wooing Woods with offers in the $70M/6 range.
  10. There doesn't seem to be too many beginners, could be because it's a baseball site, or perhaps they were intimidated into not exposing themselves.
  11. Didn't DirectTV and Dish try to merge a few years back? I thought that was turned down.
  12. QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 08:54 PM) I just don't agree that regular radio is in the same market, really, as conventional radio. But then, this argument right here is exactly the one likely in DOJ board rooms, and then possibly in court. What makes up the market, exactly? The only difference is delivery method, plus the consumer still has the option to pay zero and receive over the air content. Add in Podcasts, etc. and I could see it passing Of the six or seven subscribers I know that have Sirius, all have it because it was installed in the vehicles they bought, and none are Sterns fans. Very unscientific research, but fwiw. I was planning on buying a XM system before the baseball season started, so this is probably all good. Final note on Sterns success forcing a merger, I was thinking the opposite, Sirius didn't achieve the critical mass they were looking for and made themselves available. If they thought they could have caught XM, they probably would have continued to compete.

  13. QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 10:33 AM) Fox reports they're going with Norv Turner. Best guy left. I like the picks that the Cowboys and Chargers have made. Both were good fits.

    RIP Robert Adler

    Linked How many people have been murdered, couple broken up, and pounds gained based on his invention? RIP
  15. Interesting news. I wonder if this will cause rates to increase without competition, or decrease with reduction in advertising expenses, administrative, etc. Or stay the same?
  16. QUOTE(bmags @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 10:01 AM) so my friend sent me a youtube link of this. it is fox new's attempt of a "the daily show". It is beyond bad. I mean, beyond bad. link?
  17. QUOTE(Mplssoxfan @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 04:01 PM) As someone who will probably have to choose between Al Franken and Norm Coleman, I have but one thing to say. Yuk. Amen to that.
  18. Their current advertising campaign could be We're Putting the Blue in Jet Blue™ They can use it if they like
  19. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 12:04 PM) Damn. Did it have to be a division team? Good luck to Cliff for at least 143 games this year Not even certain I want to wish him good luck in those. Not because he isn't a good guy, but until the Indians are eliminated, they are dangerous. Wish he was in the NL.
  20. I watched the CNN broadcast of the off duty officer and was very impressed. I have a ton of respect for cops, who have to run towards the gun shots, not away.
