Not that I've ever been involved in something like this, but if you happen to place a bet early in the week, it's sometimes a good idea to see what the line has moved to. You may find the opportunity to hit a middle with the same book.

Busty heads back to California and pampers some superstar egos.

Won't matter who they bring in, they still have that goat curse He would be about the best pick out there, unless they go for a lightening strike with an Ozzie type guy.

Good place for Busty Daker

I don't care who you are, there's funny stuff right thar

QUOTE(bunkerf16 @ Oct 16, 2006 -> 01:40 PM) You can read posts without registering....... So you could have registered last year and posted us a congratulations but didn't. Yet you come here now and b**** we aren't happier for your team. Interesting. I'm going to call a bull s*** on that one. Anyway, welcome aboard. We have a higher tolerance for fans of other teams than most boards, but don't b**** about us being fans and not being all that excited about your team and their long term chances.

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Oct 16, 2006 -> 02:00 PM) It makes a difference because of the way this investigation is going. Instead of going towards people who are preying on pages. It's going towards gay people who like to give a hug. I understand that, it just saddens me that in 2006 we actually care if someone is heterosexual, or not.

such is cubdom. pinning hopes on this manager . . .

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Oct 14, 2006 -> 08:49 AM) openly gay Congressman Jim Kolbe Am I openly hetero? I can't wait until we can stop defining people as openly or closeted

We have an adversarial legal system. It works when both sides work hard and offer their best case. Doesn't matter if it's civil or criminal. Name a better legal system anywhere? Our rights are protected when the least among us are as vigerously fought for as the most priviledged. It isn't always pretty, and it seems down right scummy at times, but it has served us well for a very long time.

How about York's long green line and every other Cross Country program in the state? IIRC for about a 30 year stretch they won half the state titles. Coach Newton had an amazing career there.

I'll probably do some ferrel hog and dove this year. Deer are just too expensive in Texas.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 15, 2006 -> 09:11 AM) Your story reminds me of a time when I went in one of those Haunted House Rides at a Theme Park in Malaysia on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur a few years back. I remember a similar haunted house in Monte Carlo that I went to. All I can remember is Prince Rainier is such a wuss, hiding behind me with his eyes closed.

Thank God Fox reacted so swiftly, the world can rest easy tonight. We are safe.

The Top 5 Signs You're About to Be Dumped (Part I) [/color] "I think we should start seeing other people. And by 'we' I mean 'I.' And by 'should' I mean 'have been.' And by 'other people' I mean 'your best friend.' I'll let you figure out what 'seeing' means." You ask your Magic 8 Ball if she's going to dump you and it says, "Signs point to a prolonged period of masturbation, Loser McDumpy." You're pretty sure "Adios, b****!" wasn't really the answer to every question on last night's "Jeopardy!" She's removed you from her friends list on MySpace and her buddy list on AIM, and is currently attacking her tattoo with a cheese grater.

If we didn't have some many rights and freedoms, we would not need so many lawyers.

QUOTE(bunkerf16 @ Oct 14, 2006 -> 08:24 PM) It's sad you can't just congratulate your opponent without trying to tear them down....sounds a lot like sour grapes to me........guess that's to be expected though..... In case you noticed you are on a White Sox message board. We can have all the sour grapes we want. If you don't like sour grapes, there are a couple very nice Detroit sports message boards. QUOTE(bunkerf16 @ Oct 15, 2006 -> 11:48 AM) Actually I have been on the board almost all year because as a Tigers fan, I enjoy hearing the opinions of other teams and their fans..........there is no saying how anyone is going to perform next year based on this year's results.....to assume the Tigers will regress because you guys did this year is as silly as me saying we'll get to the playoffs again next year because the Red Sox and Yankees do it every year..... One thing I think I can say with confidence is that with us, the Sox, the Twins and the Indians, the AL Central will be the toughest division in all of baseball next year.......should be a great year......... If you've been on the board for a year, why did you just register on Sept 1 2006?

This may be a very short, two person thread, but just in case we have some other lovers of the outdoors and getting far away from roads and vehicles, I'd give a try. My old and fat body needs a more comfy sleep surface. I am looking at retiring my Ridgerest and going to a self inflator or Big Agnes pad. I love the Ridgerest for it's bombproof nature. I am thinking that carrying the Ridgerest and perhaps a small 3/4 Thermarest or equal would make sense. I would be using the Ridgerest outside as a lounger/chair and for additional insulation and cush. The weight would be about the same, but I worry about the bulk and the dip from the 3/4 to the full sided pad. Being 6'1", I do stretch the full length of a pad.

Endless Wire is released in a couple weeks. Can't wait.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Oct 13, 2006 -> 06:37 PM) If I remember right I think the FY '06 deficit counts as 1.9% of GDP. That is immaterial to me though. We REALLY REALLY need to stop spending so much money. My way of doing that would be a spending freeze to allow revenues to catch up to expenditures. A Line Item veto would be nice also and disallowing spending riders ( forcing a vote on each spending bill on its own merits ) would do much as well. While I greatly respect President Reagan, he sold us a couple lies. The biggest was spend and don't tax government. I have respect for tax and spend politicians and respect for don't spend and cut taxes politicians. The spend and don't tax is our ruin. We have lost the connection of why we pay taxes, and that is to pay for our government. Sadly, if anyone in media would report that, they would be labeled as liberally biased, and if a judge somehow showed it was unconstutional to spend more than the revenue, they would be labeled as activist judges.

Actually his style of writing is arguably tougher than the suck up to get an interview style of many columnists. You could basically rewrite a team press release, and call it a day. By pissing fans off daily, he opens himself up to this sort of criticism. He has to be more accurate and have a better base of supporting facts than to come out and write in a Chicago paper, the Bears will win the super bowl. A fluff piece like that a couple times a week would have the sheep-like fans calling him a genious and never questioning anything he writes.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 13, 2006 -> 09:41 AM) I have. I was sort of thinking I'd do that when I had kids. Maybe coach little league as well. Not volunteering, actually collecting a check.
