It's on at 4:30 here, I was just about to make a bet with my family, good thing I read this first

Will he be starting the new season?

Now you are going off in another direction. You claimed in this exact case that the terrorists on those planes were trained by Saudi Arabia in a state sponsored manner. That just doesn't make sense to me. Allies in this world are here today, gone tomorrow, and back again as it suits them and us.

So they used official government training for hand to hand combat but used US flight schools? Come on, which was going to get them caught easier? Taking a martial arts class in the US or a flight school? Why would they train in hand to hand combat in a state sponsored training program and then not train them to fly a plane? It doesn't pass the common sense test. The Saudis have an Air Force and if it was state sponsored could have trained the pilots.

I just finished the article on golf announcers and agreed 100%. Pretty cool stuff. They somehow missed Chris Shenkle (spelling?) and bowling. One in the same during the 70's.

U.S. policy on Israel key motive for effort The report doesn't think it was state sponsored.

They trained to fly in the US. Are you implying we sponsor terrorists?

he's alfway decent, we're just use to more.

I played on a travelling all-star team in Lake County way back in the 70s. We played in Mike's Memorial Brinco League. My first year 5 of the 12 or 13 kids were all named Jim. So everyone except Jim Adkins wound up with nicknames. One guy was speedy like Konerko and was called LBJ as in lead bottom Jim. I had avoided an obvious label for many days until I took a mighty (for me) rip at the ball and the coach exclaimed, you swung like a grandma! Years later guys on the team would call me grandma.

I think they need Jerry Manual to create a zen like state and improve the chemistry. Baker is the wrong guy for this team and the last guy I'd have allowed around a young pitching staff. So to the Tribune Company, I offer a

Jim, what would have caused it to propel itself to the bottom? I thought the main theory was the bow and stern being lifted at the same time by different waves and the load weight causing the ship to crack in half. Would a bow full of water have caused the damage cited?

Yes, I agree. Some already know, those that believe the terrorists nose dived into terrain. Those that believe any other version, will never know.

Steff, I believe there was a struggle, that what they heard was real, they did attack the hijackers and tried to take over the plane. Beemer yelled Let's Roll, and whatever. Before of during that, Bush made a decision that when the plane reached the last uninhabited area on their path it was going to be shot down if it clearly wasn't in "friendly hands".

Sass? :fthecubs

LMAO A+ is that your original work?

Whose to say both didn't happen? He could have started an attack at the cockpit, but we (through Bush, Military) couldn't wait and see if it was successful and went ahead and shot it down. What I said was great was the effect the story had on the American public. It was large, big, substantial, great in that it gave us hope we could fight back.

That asshole Marriotti also causes blackheads, has s***ty taste in music, caused Lallapalooza to be cancelled, creates traffic jams on the Edens . . . What an asshole. I am going to read every column of his and start either a Mariotti is a bandwagon jumper or Mariotti is an asshole thread so everyone will know that I hate him also. I am going to call him Kotex Boy and stick my tongue out at him. I too will set my home page to his column. Kotex Boy :fyou Kotex Boy :fyou Kotex Boy :fyou Kotex Boy :fyou Kotex Boy :fyou

But that's what made the story so great for the US public. We had a hero in all this. We could believe that we could fight back and even win. Without his story, and who knows, both stories may be true. While passengers were attacking the cockpit (sure that's a fun word) a missle was heading their way.

Sorry Flash, I didn't realize we all have to have the same opinion. OK, I'll start crying about Mariotti also.

I'm not a conspiracy buff by any stretch of the imagination. I just look at the map, realize, like everyone else, that this plane was not landing with wheels down at an airport, and believe our government made the decision to shoot it down. They needed a story better than Bush ordered American's killed. They had a ready made hero. If in fact we did shoot down Flight 93, fiction may have done more to help us heal than reality. Imagine if we believed the afternoon of 9/11 that Bush had to order the deaths of innocent Americans. Post 9/11 would have been even bleaker than it already was. It would only have taken one solo pilot in a fighter to bring it down.

What do you consider their weak spot? Confidence and knowing how to win seem like the intangibles that I have to give them the edge.

I'm with you there. It's a great cover story. When I heard how we scrambled fighter planes when that Governor's plane wasn't communicating, I was convinced even more. Even the location was either very lucky or . . .

Maybe because I work with so many 11-16 year olds that I cannot understand the whining. It's not f-aaaaa-ir! He's booooooootheringme! And if this is really going to work head over to blogspot, start your own blog, and link from there. Multiple spots will work faster and it's free.
