We just have to beat the Yankees and we have a clear path to the World Series f*** the Twins, we are really competing with every AL team. This sucks for us.

Another fact is the realism in today's games are many magnitudes more realistic than even 5 years ago. Soon, it will be very difficult to separate fiction from reality. Place VR eyepieces in place, walk into a 3D environment, and your brain is unable to separate. The key is the number of hours and judging each kid. But everyone that sees absolutely no harm in these games is kidding themselves. You cannot tell me that a kid playing these games 4-6 hours per day, which many, many kids do, isn't going to be affected by them. Take the same kid at 10 years old. Scenario one, he plays violent video games 5 hours a day. Scenario two he reads classic books for the same time. Are you really going to tell me the kid would wind up the same no matter how he spends his free time?

My brother was killed by a drunk driver and the passenger in my brother's pickup was severly injured. The pain for my parents was beyond description. The drunk driver was my brother.

Or self control, pain avoidance, and responsibility.

If your parents every morning woke you up and said you're stupid, you will never amount to anything, you are an idiot, do you think that would affect you? Some kids will feed their brain on nothing but this for hours a day. You cannot be exposed to those messages for that amount of time and not be affected. Same thing, only worse for kids that grow up in that environment. You are what you think about, train the mind and the body follows. Feed your brain with crap and become crap. But hey, I'm sitting here on death row, what do I know?

That's too nice of a place for the likes of him, how about this little hell hole at 1060 W. Addison? Make him stay until he talks

uhmm are you saying a mistake may have been made?I to have an uncle. Cunning terrorists, first they disguise themselves as pilots, now mild mannered coral reef biologists. But wait, you are hanging out with a known terrorist and now coming to his defense. Hmmmm, what do we really know about FlaSoxxJim?

I assume we are talking about harmful recreational pharmaceuticals, aka mother's little helpers, and not the kind the Doctor prescribes

One of these years we may be right, I picked him also.

Ladies, Los just translated wrong. He meant to say. Gee, what a shame. Perhaps she was just being friendly and you mistook the signals? So Abo, when y'all going out? Tell her she can upgrade to a premium membership

You'll be clutching a Hormel food product.

Why do they call it tourist season if you cannot kill 'em? After reading the article all I can think of is

If he was a forward in the NHL, the Hawks would be trading for him

The problem with baseball isn't a guy has one good year and is awarded with a contract like this. The problem with baseball is any player could be making $3 or $4 million. In baseball economics, the Yankees would file this contract under miscellanious expenses. Middle of the pack kind of guy. Flashes of brilliance. Solid citizen for a few years. Stay healthy and it seems like a solid, easy move. Congrats for Uribe

Exactly what I was thinking. I think that have that dog and pony show taped and just mail it in. No matter what FA you sign, you over paid. The winner in any auction paid the most and hopefully the projection works out. upnorthsox, excellent post. I notice that in these matters the guys that have been through a Sox build to tear down cycle are a bit more temperate in their views. Great analysis.

Maybe not today, but if he can be a $14 mil pitcher in year 3, it's ok. Some of this is always projections. Who do you think will win more games in 2007? RJ or MC?

Bad Santa For all my GOPer friends

I clicked the link just to see what site you were visiting this time losing explosives, misplacing bombs, I am so glad we have put so many resources into making flying safer.

Actually a comparison could be made to other MLB players with the same range of AB with bases loaded. One could also look at the overall MLB average with bases loaded and draw some conclusions from that. I imagine FlaSoxxJim has a high dollar stats program that could determine the T value and give all sorts of reasons why, or why not, the stat is meaningful. How much credence someone would put into the analysis is probably directly related to that person's opinion of the player involved.
