QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 23, 2011 -> 12:35 PM) This probably deserves its own thread but why are States the magic demarcation line? Why not counties? Townships? Why should Springfield be able to push us around and tell us what to do? Because we were states that came together to form a nation. Individual states voted to accept a new constitution, which we are still using. That constitution replaced the Articles of Confederation which created strong states and a very week national government.

Have you any grey poupon?

Useless features that took forever to load.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 3, 2011 -> 08:56 PM) It is a good thing that this guy is dead. It is not a good thing that we had to ignore the law to make it happen. That is true. I'm not certain if opening up the debate for something that may happen again in five years is the correct thing to do.

North creates a fictional character to get ratings, he'd change if he had to.

Quickly getting annoyed with a web site

And no where in the article does it say that he wants to be the starter. People are making a bunch of assumptions that are not supported by the article. But I know it is unpopular to suggest that Ozzie mishandled the lineups. If there was one thing that Oz did very well was make certain the guys on the field were ready and gave the team the best chance to win.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 3, 2011 -> 01:06 AM) So man on third and they don't walk Pujols, lefty pitching. Yes it's Lee, but he's already been hit tonight. Base hit by Albert, winning run scores. So do you all want Manuel fired after what he's done? My point? Folks, all managers make bonehead moods. The players have to bail them out. If they don't, they are bums. You guys would FRY OZZIE for not walking Pujols in that situation. If we lost the series you'd be saying: "All the momentum was lost when Ozzie didn't walk Pujols." And what if New York loses to Detroit? Their fans will be livid? Hey it's 1-1. Leyland was a bum the seasons Minnie kept winning the division. What has the Angels' manager done lately? What happened to Clint Hurdle after being the first half darling? They sucked the second half. It's about the players, baby, not the manager! And a constant in sports is managers come and go. They have a bit of magic for a season or a few more, then it fades and then they, and the team, needs a change of scenery.

Once baseball owners wise up and replace managers with computers, the world will be a better place.

It seems like y'all are being kind of unfair to the man. Y'all do understand his complaint was sitting after a good game and was kept in the lineup after a bad game? And seriously, do you really want a roster full of players that do not care if they get into the line up or not? "I'm just here for the paycheck, I don't care if they play me or not, just keep the checks coming?"

Well he's set for life. The club pays for all his meals and stuff while on the road. If he buys a modest house in the suburbs and keeps his expenses to $100,000 a year, he's got 80 years covered. He could retire after that, unless he's all about the money or some crazy s*** like that.

From what I could translate he's confused why he would pick up a couple hits and then the very next day Ozzie would have him sit. Gee, where have I heard that same complaint? Could it be HERE?

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Sep 30, 2011 -> 06:20 AM) Find Craft Beer is a pretty good app. It doesn't give prices, but it'll find places (bars, restaurants, breweries, stores) that sell craft beer close to you. It gets all its information from users, so it's decent in that respect. Cool. I'll download it. Android or iOS?

Zoophilia sells, but in small quantities.

X-rated sells

There is no way that Ozzie would have misused him, that's crazy talk.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Oct 2, 2011 -> 05:59 PM) Sanctuary cities seem to make a lot of illegals pretty damn happy. Selective enforcement on immigration cases by INS makes a lot of illegals happy. Selective prosecution in the Justice Dept on discrimination cases seem to make progressives happy. Seems the side in power now chooses to ignore a lot of laws. Are you thinking of the same laws that have been ignored for the past 30 years by every administration?

Perhaps I will write a book which will be all my best and most illuminating posts.

Actually he placed blame on all corners of the government. unlike some here, he'll criticize both sides of the aisle. Of course since I want to support the troops, I support whatever mission the President has for them.

You keep looking for a perfect law in an imperfect word.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 2, 2011 -> 05:16 PM) And can someone please tell me why having Congress actually deal with this issue over the last year when it was clear this person would be a target is a bad thing? Because the situation defies easy definitions which are requirements before writing the law.

more if you want it

know what I think?
