Are we making room for Raffy?

And you figured I would be hangin out in Sex, Lies, and Politics I responded. It would help to know which class.

RU a runner?

It crawls for me. The only source for Sox news for me is here. I may fly up to Chicago next week to visit my family.

campmor and other shops sell an attachment to a portable jony called the jane which is shaped to help females with this.

Hey Steff, I see you're making the newcomer feel welcome It's going to be a long winter

Your finals aren't finished log out and get back to work. Lunch break is over.

A lot depends on how you view the conferences. Are they divisions of a league in which case half the NCAA Div 1 teams are left out of consideration (and possibly correctly) or do we have 100+ teams all vying in a beauty contest of sorts? The NCAA could call the 6 major conferences divisions, then set up a playoff with those 6 conferences and only count wins and loses within those conferences . The two wildcards teams would be teams with the best records against other Big 6 conference schools. The smaller schools who fund a lot of their programs by playing Enormous U for cash and prizes will suffer or half to fold, but the playoffs will be cleaner. Right now smaller Div 1 schools are paid to play these games which almost guarantee the big school a win. I still think it is wrong to legislate that a conference can't have the two best teams in the nation. Basketball allows it and so should football. Even within the Big 6 a couple conferences are stronger than the others. Right now the Big 12 and Big 10 are both pretty powerful conferences.

Dammit I'm starting to have positive thought. It's these players who put a team over the top. Guys who haven't contributed that have excellent break out years. I'm hoping Crede will also . . . I must block those positives thoughts out. We are a 5th place team. I can't get my hopes up.

If U of I says no the first time go through their appeal process. Three of three guys I know who were turned down initially got in on appeal. Your letter of reference will be key.

With the Mexico jobs most are maquilla operations with the engineers and other managers living in the US and crossing every day. I did it for a few years. Kind of a cool environment. Border living is interesting.

So if Ohio State and Michigan finished 1-2 in the polls you would favor throwing one out and letting the highest rated team from another conference play?

It was only carried locally. I'm hoping for a rap parody to take it international. Thanks for asking. Friends again?

Now that Colon is the enemy I tried to bump ncorgbls (IMHO) excellent Elton John parody. I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him and starting a new thread. I wish we had kept him (colon) but at least we can laugh as our pitching staff sinks. Begin quoting ncorgbl When are you gonna come down Where will your contract land I should have stayed on the farm I should have listened to the old man You know you can't bait me forever I couldn't sign up with you I'm not a checkbook for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing the blues So goodbye Bartolo Colon Where the dogs of big league baseball howl You won't let me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old room in the woods Hunting the next major league lode Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the Charlotte road What do you think you'll eat then I bet you'll stay a tub o' goo It'll take you a couple of dozen burritos To never see your feet again Maybe you'll get a new G.M. There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground So goodbye Bartolo Colon Where the dogs of big league baseball howl You won't let me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old room in the woods Hunting the next major league lode Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the Charlotte road --------------------

A couple other pluses The career earning would probably be greater with a NU degree. ~ and ~ Think of all the money you will save by not going to bowl games every year I know, it would have been funnier and truer other years.

LMFAO but I don't know why

I was really hoping to see corg come around with a tub o goo thread for one last time.

(1979) College of Lake County Lancers Cross Country Champions in 10 of 11 seasons. Not sure what happened after I left. (2003) University of Texas - Pan American Edinburg, Texas Broncs football: undefeated the past 15 years Basketball: perhaps the worst NCAA Div 1 program to be sanctioned for violations. Thank God a new coach has turned the program around. Psychology Major, Political Science and English minors. Think about where you want to build a career after college and seriously consider schools in that area. The Alumni network will help your career. Also look at your support system. The success rate for college is much greater if you have the social support, especially the first 2 or 3 months at school. Visit as many universities as you can before making a decision. Consider a close to home school the first 2 years. The core education requirements outside your major aren't going to matter too much and will not be much different at Local U or Big Budget U.

LOve the breaking news break a little while ago on my radio. I'd rather have seen Andy in a Sox uniform but that keeps the 'stros up with the Cubs. I'm not going to wear one of those Ray Rainer two team hats.

Ooops I guess i wrote that wrong. I should have wrote: split my allegiance between the Sox and another NL team. I'm looking for a team in the #2 spot behind the White Sox. Obviously the 2nd team would need to be in the NL and have a decent chance of contending. I was leaning towards Houston. Seems like a nice fit. They get some local news coverage here in south Texas, play in the same division as the Cubs, are a contender, and they just spent a very pennies on pitching. While my love for the Bulls waned and I followed the Spurs, and the Dllas Stars are more interesting to me than the Hawks (that could change in a heartbeat) and I've basically lost all interest in pro football, I'll always follow the Sox.

Can anyone find out what Frank's AVG was against American League pitching while playing first? I know he ripped up the NL pitchers, but I wonder how he did vs. AL. My guess is he was still better, just not as dramatic.

Just last week I officially named the Astros my #2 team. I'm liking this bandwagon already.

We would go on extended backcountry camping trips. Spend a week or so far away from any roads or people. You have to carry everything you need in a backpack.

Any chance of the military bombing the sox and rebuilding? hell money won't be an issue. Not being able to draft a german or french players won't be too much of a hinderance (was south america solidly beghind us?)

Let's ice this until late January. So far I haven't seen a scenario that seems plausable and good. Now that we've lost everyone of our FA let's see how JR and KW start to dance. Plan B might be more money, not less.
