Gyros
Sorry, I had doub le posted and for some reason my posts was deleted and the thread remained. The best local Hot Dog stand near me, Chicago Dogs, added real gyros to the menu. I noticed they offer cheese, but I can't remember adding cheese before. Is that a new Chicago thing?

Baseball Toaster Garland Article
Garland is a winner. He is one of the best young pitchers in baseball. You cannot statistically prove "winner", in fact some winners will not have steller stats. Bart Colon is one that comes to mind. He pitches best when his team really needs him. I've watched enough baseball to know that Garland is the kind of guy you want in your rotation. I wonder how teams ever won before computers.

2006 Attendance Figures
The WS afterglow will help the early Spring dates that lowered attendance in past seasons. And BTW, are we talking about attendance or ticket sales?

An early Spring Training Warning
I was thinking a veteran team looking to play in October would actually post a worse record than some sub .500 team with a bunch of guys trying to make a roster.

I wonder how many people watching that knew it was wrong?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 1, 2006 -> 08:40 AM) I love subtle sarcasm. The sarcasm was clearly marked in green, I don't think that is subtle. As I have stated many, many times. Let the voters in Sugarland decide on DeLay. The Dems have taken so many shots, I've lost count, and none have stuck. They took their best shot, it failed. This is revenge politics (for the redistricting) at it's worse. Tax cuts and no increases to minimum wage are both strong GOP positions. Finding out that people who share those values contribute to those candidates is a no issue in my book. Now if a liberal group contributed to a conservative candidate, and the candidate suddenly was voting with the Dems, then you have something, or vice versa.- Delay
Lies, distortions, and half truths. DeLay wouldn't take Russian money, he's a Republican. The Indians shouldn't be taxed on their gambling revenues, because that would slow the economy, by the Indians keeping more of their money and spending it, more money will be paid in taxes down the road. Republicans never want to see government mandated wages increase, so his position that those textile workers should receive government mandated wage increases is consistent with GOP beliefs. Politicians cannot make fundraising calls from government offices and have to leave the property. I think it is nice this group allowed Tom "The Hammer" DeLay to use some space so close to his office. Getting rid of Democrates should be DeLay's passion. They have no value, and are just f***ing up the country with their unAmerican thinking. There probably should be a constitutional ban on them, then those activist judges would finally accomplish something useful for mothers, apple pie, and baseball. Hammer Time 2008- PC help please ...

Everyone that thinks this kid was stupid, are you meaning he did something stupid, or had a low IQ? I still can't believe a really stupid kid could figure out how to get to the Iraq border without enlisting.- So there's a deer carcass on the side of the road

QUOTE(WCSox @ Dec 30, 2005 -> 03:15 PM) I work long hours because I enjoy my job and believe in working hard to get ahead. Despite what socialists and some liberals think, doing more than the bare minimum is actually a positive thing. Well I'll work my 40-45 and put in another 8-10 a week as a volunteer, making a difference in my community, and spending time with my family. I guess family time and volunteerism isn't as important to hard working conservatives as it is to socialists and liberals. You keep working hard, putting in your 12 hour days, and get all you can, I'll keep giving. And welcome to the Dem thread.- Florida teen tries "immersion journalism" in Iraq
QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 30, 2005 -> 12:34 PM) And a serious shortage of brains. I thought that at first, but how many teenagers could book an international flight and get their ass that far? For that matter, how many adults? I see tadults all the time at the border, confused, and this is a simple border crossing. I'm actually thinking the kid is very smart, but lacking in some common sense.- PC help please ...

From my good friend John- Florida teen tries "immersion journalism" in Iraq
You know what kid, you got spunk!- For Dems only.
Interesting that in one poll, about half of the people picked REP has their party affiliation. In the DEM thread there have been 5 times as many posts. It would seem that the Dems are more interesting at this point. Now if the media gave people what they wanted, and produced 5 times the Dem stories, they may have economic success, but would be scolded for being too bias. Hmmm.- Jon Garland signs a 3 year extension
I don't know how to react when my team is acting like a team trying to build a dynasty. Never in my wildest dreams would I imagine the pitching staff that will be together for the next 3 seasons. Just incredible. This staff will rival, if not surpass, the Atlanta staffs of the 90s. Great mix, great citizens, Wow! - Florida teen tries "immersion journalism" in Iraq
