The official "Put Urible at SS" Thread
I think Jose needs many more times at bat against lefties before he is comfortable. Now that I'm thinking about it, it is probably also carrying over to his ABs against righties as well. I'm not too worried about his defense. I suspect he will go many more weeks without an error. I would rather have Jose and Maggs then Garciaaparra and whomever we would ahve gotten for Jose.

Yankee Announcers
Murcer, Kaat, and another guy. Today one of the annoucners mentioned he would be surprised if the Sox didn't win the Central. Best offense, just enough pitching.

Imagine waking up and seeing this!
Actually the prefered method is to deep fry them and serve with a spicy curry paste. I understand that some nomadic tribes will make them into some dessert, but I could not find a recipe.

I was wrong about Bush
Sorry CW, I have to gently disagree with this. There are only so many slots in the military, and if we limit debate to only those who are serving, we silence too many Americans. Like it or not, young people can jump in AARP style public policy debates, straights can weigh in on gay rights, whites for blacks, blacks for whites, etc. America, you have to love it. Now I asked my favorite Bush appologist and war hawk if he felt Iraq was worth his son dieing for and all of a sudden he realized maybe this wasn't such a good place to be. Yesterday a flag draped coffin was laid to rest here. War came barging into our lives when a 2003 graduate of a local High School, a honor student, well respected by his peers, was brought home from Iraq. He paid the ultimate price. I hear how we sacraficed his live to safe Iraqi lives from Saddam's torture. I pray we aren't just replacing American lives for the Iraqis.

Ordonez: Sox deal 'close' to happening
Maggs will replace Frank as the "face" of the White Sox. The team needs one consistent All-Star caliber player to market and build around. Maggs is the kind of player that the team could promote. I can easily see JR thinking of Maggs as the franchise player and signing him to a long term deal.

Zero!
:headshake This was the first time I saw him and I'm not that impressed. What I was hoping was a little confidence on the mound, but didn't see any. The Yankee announcers felt that Zero would have been cut during Spring raining if he didn't have a gauranteed contract.

Jon Garland
THE Yankee announcers felt that if JM was still the manager, that Jon wouldn't have made it out of the 4th. I really liked the way he came back and pitched so well. The announcers mentioned a few times about his "California" cool. All in all, it was Cy Garner out there today. We all know that last year he could also be Judy Garnlans. Let's hope Judy stays home a lot more than last year.

Yankee Announcers
I was very impressed watching today's game on the Yankee network. There analysis of the Sox was pretty damn good and when A-Rod was called out on strikes to end the inning, they came back and showed A. Why is was clearly a strike - and - B. Why it looks like a ball on tv, the dugout, and in the stands They also did their homework for *current* Sox info. I would say the announcing team was clearly the best I've listened to who were from the other team.

Wild Wings was exactly where I was thinking of going. I'm not certain if they will have the game.

I was wrong about Bush
Think about life for the average Iraqi. Sadaam was the leader for almost their entire lives. They do not know any other way of life. They are much more likely to be a victim of violence today than before we came to liberate. Unemployment is up, life is very uncertain. I can understand why there is anger and resentment. And guess what? Some people do not want a US lifestyle. Amazing isn't it? But our attitude has been on more than one time in our history that we are going to give you US democracy if we have to kill everyone who is opposed to it. Still I think we should still vote Bush, he's funny

I noticed the morning work crowd isn't logged in, and who wants to waste personal time here?

I was wrong about Bush
I believe it was our current agencies (CIA, FBI, Military, Immigration, Border Patrol) inability to work together to quickly and easily share data that caused the department to be formed. It isn't just Arab hatred we are fighting, although some in Homeland Security seem to have an extra zeal for that sort of work.

With the unbalanced schedules, and expecting the Tigers to have a loss or two before the season is over, it will take 8 to 10 games over .500 to win. - OMG, Not for under 18
