My Road Trip
What kind of seats did you have? How about a food report? How were you treated as a foreign fan?

Sandy in, Josh out
I would hate to see the Sox lose Josh but agree he should probably look for a better opportunity.

The MOMENT of TRUTH has arrived
Set your expectations low and hope the team exceeds them. Wish I had followed that advice this season.

oh wtf...nascar nextell???
Hmm other sponsors could include Blue Cross Blue Shield "are you covered for an accident like this" Dutch Maid Cleaner "who's going to get the s*** stain out of his suit after that crash?" Crest Whitener "We can get those brown tobacco stains off his teeth" EPT "Worried that your cousin's having your baby, find out faster than a pitstop"

Got mine today!
Adults shouldn't find the books to be as exciting as kids. IMHO they are written for the 9-13 age range. I applaud any series that could have the kids this excited. As far as the religous angle. I have a very good friend who is a youth minister and doesn't allow his kids to trick or treat, avoids fairy tails, etc. I find it to be amusing. My kids were mature enough at age 8 to figure out and understand the difference between stories like Harry Potter and our religous beliefs. I assume that most 8 year olds can as well. Teaching kids to think and differentiate will do more to instill a sense of being and religion than hiding Harry Potter from them. Can you imagine this conversation "Daddy, do you really believe Nancy is going to hell from reading Harry Potter? Then all my friends are wrong."

I can't believe your wife and my girlfriend look the same!

Canseco arrested
He's waiting for "the phone call" and wants to be ready? He digs the pimples and shriveled dick? Chicks love his mood swings? He's just one mixed up stupid ex-jock with no sense of worth outside of hitting baseballs?

Pitching for the next week
You would think when he's sitting at 3-10 on the season he would have bigger reasons to want to win than the fact it would help "his" team. Comments like this can come back to haunt him like next season if MLB decides to create an "instant rivalry" like Sox-Cards. Hope he gives 100%. He claims no other player mentions they pull for their hometown team. Well Dah Mark, do you think there's a good reason for it? He opened himself up for criticism.

Beat the Twins like Everyone Else (Twins YNOT)
After your Cubs pick I am so glad to see you picking the Twins

Sandy in, Josh out
I'm hoping Sandy can help in the clubhouse. I have absolutely zero reason for believeing this but I think he can help with a winning not whinning attitude. Am I misled?

Canseco arrested
Does this mean he isn't coming back to the Sox?

CWS
Rice has an awesome staff this year. They need to get off to a better start than down 2-3 in the first inning. Gotta love an old school manager still out their coaching third. Go Owls!

I may have passed poetry if they had poems like this.

When it Rains it Pours
Way back when I took the Motorcycle Safety Institute driver safety course the instructor quoted a stat that something like 50% of college kids will crash their new sportbikes in the first week of ownership. I wonder how long he'd been riding? If not inexperience any word on what may have contributed to the accident?

What the fuck?
he's got some stamina. Think mom and dad are going to show that to his prom date?

Got mine today!
My son is on page 425 after receiving his via the Fed Ex guy on Saturday morning.

Pitching for the next week
Well said! gracias.

Pitching for the next week
My thought is simple Mark, grow the f*** up. You're getting paid to play for the White Sox. Forget every other team and concentrate on who's making you a very wealthy man.

The MOMENT of TRUTH has arrived
Which tells us how far we really have to go. Just winning a weak division ain't all that cool.

Something funny at USCF
My Bulls seats at the old stadium were in the last row of the balcony. Great before standing room crowds. You could slide out the back of your seat and go get a beer. No climbing over anyone. When a good team was in town we could upgrade at the ticket office for a few bucks. Great fans all around us. One guy was the funniest guy ever.
