Fantastic insight to Balta. No matter how you knew that, it is crazy that you knew it.

Sox Post Winter Meetings
Evaluating this early in the off season is like watching the first 15 minutes of Iron Chef. You see a lot of ingredients, but until it gets closer to the final product, there is too much unknown for me to declare a winner.

Catch All Anything Thread
I am posting something about LL Bean to see if their ad will appear and I can click through while doing some Christmas shopping. I am pretty certain I saw their ad here, which happens to be exactly why I am shopping there. That and they make a huge donation at one of my favorite national parks.

Republican 2012 Nomination Thread
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 11, 2011 -> 01:43 PM) What in the nominating process is a good tool to evaluate candidates? What indeed? I'll toss this out there. The candidates vision for America the world and the likelihood they have the tools to get somewhere down that road. No candidate will accomplish all they want to as President. If they can get three or four middle level policies going, that's a pretty good term. So look at what the campaign puts out, decide if you share that vision. I'm just tossing that out as a start. My idea was to focus not on any one candidate. I understand there are some holes in the idea.

Braun tests postitive for PEDs
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 11, 2011 -> 12:45 PM) Not knowing it was banned is not an excuse. This guy has a 10 year contract for like $150 million because of the things his body can do. Putting somehting into that body that you're not 100% certain about deserves a suspension. If you are 100% certain because a doctor or company tells you so, then that's why the legal system exists. Not only is this 100% correct, but the only way the drug policy can work.

Republican 2012 Nomination Thread
Really though, how often will a President have to debate? I'm wondering if it is that good of a tool to use in evaluating candidates.

QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 11, 2011 -> 10:48 AM) According to another board: "You have to press the text field and make it active to bring up the keyboard. Also make sure Bluetooth is off.' Hmm, I did part one, I will have to turn off bluetooth and see if that makes a difference.

Fast reply works just fine, regular does not. I am finding the spots that use flash. Interesting.

On-line works bet for me because I am sending so many back to Chicago. I miss wrapping gifts.

I receive the parent's alerts from U of I and at least once a week there is a bodily injury crime. With so many young adults around, I am not surprised.- Outside the Lines with Bob Ley
Christian kids having sex? I am shocked, not. And check out that list, I wonder how accurate it is.- The Hall of Fame

Yep, you got me. I was calling out everyone here that only blamed Paterno, which by your own admission, and I agree, is, wait for it, no one here. So I say I wasn't calling anyone out. You claim there wasn't anyone to call out. Yet somehow you keep accusing me of calling out people.- The Hall of Fame
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Dec 8, 2011 -> 10:58 PM) See, you're doing this simply for the chance to debate. You knew from the very instant you posted that nobody else thinks of the LPGA as a major sport. Yes, I knew someone would post that baseball has the strictest standards. I withdraw my comment, I will agree with the previous poster, baseball has the highest standards of any major sport. Of the minor sports, the LPGA has the toughest standards, I do not believe there can be any debating that point.- Buehrle Signs with Marlins | 4 yrs $58 mil
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 07:35 AM) I'd bet closer to $1.5. With the Marlin's new look? I think he can continue winning 14-15 games a season. If I had to pick from two choices, win 17 or win 10, I would take 17. Do you really think he will drop to 10 wins per season?- Baseball gave 111 exceptions for "medications'
That reminds me of all the PGA tour players who need Beta Blockers for hypertension. John Daly called them out. He sees all these guys working out as he walks by the weight room smoking a cigarette and he says, they have hypertension?! lol- Buehrle Signs with Marlins | 4 yrs $58 mil
QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 8, 2011 -> 06:19 PM) This. I want Buehrle to go 33-0. And the Marlins win 33 games. awesome post. - Another Virginia Tech shooting...
