Koch and Zero cast large shadows. And wouldn't you know it, they have big gauranteed contracts

Farside had one were you are looking through the scope and the bear in the middle is pointing to the bear standing next to him.

Sadly, I'll remember him more for: The Migraine The "I'm not getting the ball" Pout

Imagine if JR went to Frank and told him he wanted Frank to be paid fairly based on each season's stats. We are going to offer you a 1 year contract and at the end of the season, negotiate next years. That was Frank you will never have to worry about not being paid fair market value. I'm certain Frank would jump at that If we are going to talk numbers, and not that it has anything to do with this but, wouldn't it have been nice if Frank could have hit his weight during the 2000 playoffs? Or Joey Cora's weight? Of his bat weight?

I just opened a container of pico de gallo and whoops! It's been in the fridge a little too long.

On second thought, you better not. The thread would just wind up getting locked

Pounder This!!!! There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra than on Alzheimer's research. That means that by 2020, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

Union Rules A dedicated Teamsters union worker was attending a convention in Las Vegas and decided to check out the local brothels. When he got to the first one, he asked the Madam, "Is this a union house?" "No," she replied, "I'm sorry it isn't." "Well, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?" "The house gets $80 and the girls get $20," she answered. Offended at such unfair dealings, the union man stomped off down the street in search of a more equitable, hopefully unionized shop. His search continued until finally he reached a brothel where the Madam responded, "Why yes sir, this is a union house. We observe all union rules." The man asked, "And if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?" "The girls get $80 and the house gets $20." "That's more like it!" the union man said. He handed the Madam $100, looked around the room and pointed to a stunningly attractive blonde.. "I'd like her," he said. "I'm sure you would, sir," said the Madam. Then she gestured to a 92-year old woman in the corner, "but Ethel here has 67 years seniority and she's next."

As the airliner pushed back from the gate, the flight attendant gave the passengers the usual information regarding seat belts, etc. Finally, she said, "Now sit back and enjoy your trip while your captain, Judith Campbell, and crew take you safely to your destination." Joe sitting in the eighth row thought to himself, "Did I hear her right? Is the captain a woman?" When the attendants came by with the drink cart, he said, "Did I understand you right? Is the captain a woman?" "Yes," said the attendant, "In fact, this entire crew is female." "My God," said Joe, "I'd better have two scotch and sodas. I don't know what to think of all those women up there in the cockpit." "That's another thing sir," said the attendant, "We no longer call it the cock pit. Now it's the box office."

Cows Is it just me or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington. Also they track her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around Canada and the USA The solution is to give every illegal alien a cow.

I agree if Frank was negatiating a contract today, he would be paid better. But he negotiated this contract already. If Frank wanted to be paid based on each year's numbers, why did he sign a multi-year contract? If his numbers went down, would he be demanding a new contract? Sorry, no one forced him to sign the contract. Was he expecting worse numbers when he signed? Anything can happen in a multi-year contract. Some players will subsequently sign for bigger and bigger contracts. (Frank knew that) His number could go up, they could go down (Everyone knew that) He could get hurt There could be a strike There could be a salary cap In a multi-year deal, players trade security for possible future earnings. Sometimes the player wins (Koch) sometimes the player loses (Frank). A team cannot continue to turn their wins to losses and keep their losing contracts as well. Then teams would lose on every contract.

Ah the evil misquoter strikes again. Steff, I'm a little busy, would you take care of this for me? Come to think of it, they probably were also on the forfront of latex design, miniature electronics, piezo buzzers, virtual reality, and just for you PA, I found an Amish Porn Site for your relocation to the Amish.

Would this be a good time to retire 44? IMHO, one of the biggest things that baseball has over football and basketball is the history. People want to see the link to the past. Monument Park at Yankee Stadium looks very cool on TV. I also like the prominent displays. I hope they leave room for Frank

Well to those that had two weeks in the "how long can Frank be un-selfish" poll You Win!!

Dude, at least save up your own money, using mom's to kill her is wrong. Of course if his Mom had been killed, and he was caught, he could always tell the Judge to have mercy since he is an orphan.

The Porn industry has been on the leading edge of many trends and technologies. Look at early VCR sales, internet commerce, etc. Aids awareness and protection is another area. Amazing, but true.

Bar Trivia. Now we have a setting, it's easier. What is the currency in Bedrock? (Clams) When is Earth Day celebrated (April 22) What is in a Waikiki Beachcomber (3/4 oz Triple sec, 3/4 oz Gin, 1 tblsp Pineapple juice ) Which NBA team won the most games in the 1980s? (Milwaukee Bucks)

I'm reading the article and it all makes sense to me. How many millions should any Sox player give up to play for the White Sox? If you were Maggs, would you give up $3 Million? $6 Million? $12 Million? Colon received an extra year gauranteed, at his salary. Should he turn down all those millions? Last time I looked the White Sox weren't a charity. Maggs deserves that level of compensation. He has been, and will continue to be a class act. He should be the cornerstone of the Sox franchise for the next 5 or 6 years. Build the team around him.

Did Frank think player salries would stay constant the entire length of his contract? Sorry, Frank but at the ass end of the contract, others, on the front end of theirs, will be making more. I didn't hear him complaining when his contract jumped passed established stars in the league. I agree with Steff, I wonder how old these quotes are and if Frank brought this up or the reporter pressed him on it for a story.

I will always jump on a thread to say thanks to cw

Thinking about Dontrell Willis and his hot bat, I'm wondering A. If the DH is mandatory, can the pitcher bat? B. If you do not DH for the pitcher, can you DH for a field position

What direction do satelite dishes point to in the northern hemisphere?

8th Grade story also. I had a hippie Social Studies flower child teacher. Early in the year, when reprimanding a classmate, she mentioned having a conversation about him with Miss Smith in the bathroom. Miss Smith is the classic gym teacher who should have been playing for the Bears. Fast forward 5 months. My teacher is sporting what appears to be a hickey on her neck. My buddy has his hand up for 10 minutes before she calls on him. He asks if that's a hickey on her neck Everyone cracks up except me who announces "Yeah, it was her and Miss Smith in the bathroom!" Now I am tossed out of class and have to spend the next 4 weeks in study hall. Two weeks later I learn to graduate I have to pass the Constitution test. The test is given in Social Studies and since I am not attending Social Studies I would be held back, unless the teacher let me back into class. Damn, that was a loooooong walk to her classroom with a well crafted appology. That was probably my finest class comedian moment. I love a call back.

Are they happy or delighted? The word was hijacked by the homosexual meaning. So in effect gay = stupid is a hijack of a hijacked term. Now shall we discuss God's rainbow message? Don't worry, you're among friends.
