Amazing.

Ozzie has to be the best interview in baseball. Funny stuff. He could post here, if he wasn't so damn optimistic.

Wow. He's a bit out of step with the rest of the world, including much of his party. Wow. He's a bit out of step with the rest of the world, including much of his party.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 11:38 AM) What power can you have in a six person relief group? My premise was a smaller relief agency, close to the people in need, would be better than a large, multinational, out of touch agency. The smaller agency would be less likely to have resources and more likely to be corrupt.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 11:34 AM) I gotta go with Balta on this one... absolute power corrupts absolutely. There are more likely to be the tempations that would cause corruption in a bigger organization, vs a smaller one. There is also probably a more intimate connection to the cause, which would lead to being less likely to steal from it. I agree with you on the premise but wouldn't absolute power be more likely in a six person relief organization?

I am thnking of something like the Balta-Tex charity with a half dozen employees in some third world backwoods. I'd trust Catholic Charities, Heart Association, United Way, and those types before I'd trust the likes of you and me.

I was a huge Who fan in high school and college. One of my favorite memories was SIU, Halloween, someone playing Baba O'Reilly at full volume outside a dorm building. About 200 people singing along in between chugs of Bush beer. OK, the beer sucked, but the rest of the moment was cool.

What does she look like? Maybe I'd do her.

I'd be thinking the same thing. Now if the allegations are true, she may have been raped *and* her daddy may be in jail.

It would seem that smaller organizations, that can get closer to the problem, would have a better understanding of what is needed. But those are more likely to not have large resources and more likely to be corrupt.

Thinking about it, The Who were more an album band than a singles band. BTW, easily my favorite band.

Looks like the Padres are the front runners, hometown thing. Is this the Red Sox giving up? It sure seems like it.

QUOTE(spawn @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 09:22 AM) I'm a 39 year-old black man...and you guys are right. I'm a minority in the real world...but the ratio here is quite disheartening. Of course, that's through no fault of anyone here. I'm a member of 5 different forums, either sports or political related, and this ration holds true to the other forums as well. One of those forums, I'm the only black member. I have learned something living in an area where statistically I am a minority as a white male. Minority has nothing to do with statistics. I have also learned that people will subdivide themselves when given the chance.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 08:34 AM) The Who's most successful US single was "I Can See For Miles." Wouldn't have guessed that. No way? Not Who Are You or Baba O'Reilly?? from wiki

Just sayin', if I was Jimbo, and let's say I was getting close to retirement age, and wanting to get out. This would be the best possible scenario.
