So Phil specializes in winning championships with great teams. Sounds like a great gig to me. Beats being the turnaround guy who can take a 20 game winner and turn them into a solid 42 game winner.

Back to happy. I hate watching on mlb.tv

DAMN! I was making plans.

Just a reminder the Pick to Click and YNOT prediction contests are up and running in the Sports Bar. Monday Pick to Click Indians YNOT Get your picks in before the first pitch. The PTC winners are all updated, the scoreboard blog will be updated soon. YNOT standings are all up to date. Good Luck.

That is accurate. But that's also how they are counted in the AL, so nothing has changed there. I feel sorry for Billy. He is a class act and I was really pulling for him.

IIRC this is the longest running cease fire in history. KOREA DEFENSE SERVICE MEDAL APPROVED

Head over to the sports bar and find the current YNOT questions. Most everyone cuts and pastes their responses. The PTC link is there also. Link

Sadly, the north may cheer.

AFAIK the name was borrowed from another board and never really explained.

They are part of a very exclusive club, that many times has transended politics. Carter and Ford have become close friends. When you have shared something that few people ever have, it is a special bond. It is probably easier for a Rep and Dem to be close because they don't have years of internal party politics to fight over.

Damn, Fights over people, get to class . . .

My prayers are with everyone connected. When I was in HS my girlfriend's neighbor, 12 years old, placed a family handgun to his head, and ended his own life. I will remember to this day the pain both parents felt. The mom was heaping the guilt on the father who bought the gun over the mom's objection. His sister was blaming herself because he said he was going to do it and she didn't believe him. Later it came out that he called three "friends" who all told him to go ahead. He had threatened this before and they were tired of his threats. He released himself from his pain, multiplied it 100 fold and heaped it on everyone else. It is a cowardly, selfish thing to do.

I searched also. It is a shame we do not have access to such a wonderful bit of Cub history.

You two just padding your post totals or will you be ripping off each others clothes soon? Be nice. We're all friends here.

No they cannot. At least a few more. He's got too many tools to give up on. But he's getting close.

Remember how much fun a HS girl fight was? Not towards any two posters in particular who share a certain bond.

Basically, Bonds has squandered whatever good he could have had on whatever causes he chose.

Connecticut governor to resign

According to an up to the minute report, the craft briefly entered space. Making it the first private ship to reach space.

0 for two months and you kept pace with me.

Represent? No. Influences? Yes. You are correct, there are a hell of a lot more people that care what Bonds says. Witness all the people who are talking about his comments. With popularity, credibility, power, or influence, comes responsibility. Dr. King was not an elected representitive. Do you think he just shot out whatever he felt like saying? That would diminish his message. Nadar hasn't been elected to anything, yet his words have impact. There are many examples of people who have influence without direct power. I'm not agreeing with or disagreeing with what Bonds said. I am only making the point that professional ballplayers are ambassadors for their teams and their cities. That may not be constitutional, it may not be correct, but that's reality. People listen when they speak. They need to weigh their words and be mindful of the consequences. When Bonds can say something and someone cares as much as when Steff or Texsox tells somebody, than it's the same. Until then he's a public figure and needs to accept that responsibility.
