  1. QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 12, 2005 -> 08:40 AM) Let's see. This P.O.S. has gone through the entire appeal process without any success. He's in the most liberal state in the nation, yet he's still on death row. But we might be making a mistake? I laugh at such crap. My earlier post was a general discussion about why the death penalty is wrong in this country. Sorry if I confused anyone. Yes he has. And you believe the government should be killing citizens. What does that say about how much we value life as a society? He should be locked up and never see the light of day. Thou Shall Not Kill. It doesn't say, kill if a jury finds the person guilty. Kill if someone kills a cop or child, but not a middle age accountant.
  2. Yes, YAS he does deserve to die, just like all of us. No one is immortal. How he dies Yep Arnold don't wuss out. Stand up for what is right and spare the execution. It will piss off your GOP faithful, you should be strong enough to handle that. Though shall not kill. I can't believe some people trust the government to execute citizens, even after so many death row inmates have been exonerated. Our legal system is not perfect, the death penalty can not be reversed when a mistake has been found. I'm glad YAS and Nuke believe our justice system is perfect, that everyone received a fair trial regardless of finances, that premeditated killing is fine as long as it is carried out by the government.
  3. QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Dec 11, 2005 -> 07:18 PM) If I remember correctly, big Juan Uribe dumped Boras last offseason and promptly signed a 3 year deal with the Sox immediately afterward. If you're Joe "f***ing" Crede, having established yourself as a Chicago hero last postseason, knowing that the Sox have been oh-so patient with you throughout all of your struggles, knowing that the Sox WILL NOT negotiate with your agent which essentially spells your departure from Chicago, would ya dump Boras and see what a new agent could do in keeping you in Chicago? Has anyone "in the know" heard any rumbles of this being a possibility. I think Joe would have to believe that the Sox would offer him a reasonable long-term deal as long as he had a different agent, but would that be enough for him to dump Boras? If you are Joe Crede and watching as the greatest Sox batter of all time moves on to another team, do you realize it's a business, and the team will dump you in a heartbeat, so you better get all you can, when you can?
  4. When some snot nose punk wants a piece of Grandma, I need all night energy, that's why I always eat at the Early Bird Special at Luby's
  5. I'm thinking how to make money off grandma . . . "When I'm trying to beat the last boss, and I've been at it for 21 hours straight, the last thing I want to do is take a break for my incontinence. That's why I depend on Depends adult diapers . . ."
  6. Oh thank God. We've been worried all weekend.

  16. What makes this so cool, is it was more of the on field fit than the marketing dream that made this trade.
  17. QUOTE(Mercy! @ Dec 10, 2005 -> 06:41 PM) I’ve been curious as to why there isn’t one of those standard “Read This before You Post” or FAQ type of things to allow new posters to get up to speed on the site’s dos and don’ts. Since Soxtalk has been around for awhile, I figure it must be a conscious philosophical decision not to have such, rather than not having the time to do so. Just wondered what the reasoning was behind that decision. One reason is as soon as we print a list, there are some posters who will see how far they can push each rule. We are trying to handle this more like a family, than as a anonymous city. Sometimes it works well, other times it blows up in our faces.
  18. As part of President Bush's Faith Based initiative we have these faith/secular law issues. I am a big fan of Bush's initiative and applaud Churches that offer help within the secular laws that are in place.

  22. QUOTE(YASNY @ Dec 9, 2005 -> 02:42 PM) I'd like to buy the USA a fence for the southern border. Great idea, I'll buy the gates.

  24. I watched in agony as my parents dealt with the death of my brother in a traffic accident. As a species we are not equiped and prepared to bury a son or daughter. It is not the cycle of life we expect.
  25. I am glad we are keeping this real. I would have loved to give my favorite city, my hometown, the gift of a World Series Championship, but they already have one!!!!!! God, I still love saying that. In the next layer of not realistic, there are some great kids that I have had the pleasure of being their Scoutmaster for 5 years that I would love to be able to write a check for their college educations. One in particular has a gift with animals and our world will be a better place with him as a Veterinarian. If I could give him the gift of an acceptance letter to Vet school and pay for it, I would be a happy man. (Vet school is harder to enter than regular medical school) A little more doable, but still not possible, I would love to give to the Scouts a Chapel at Camp Perry. Ours was destroyed over a decade ago, and the funds have not been found to build a new one. We have a couple locations that would be ideal, but there have been other projects more pressing. Closer to home, I would love to buy my son a car. I have a good friend with a special wish this Christmas, who is moving heaven and earth to make happen. I wish I could offer more support and help. And finally, I'd like to buy the world a coke and keep it company
