QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 07:38 AM) Fox News Producer Caught Rallying 9/12 Protest Crowd Ouch. But I'll bet there are many hundreds or thousands of producers and reporters who have done this. They want the story they are covering "their story" to be the lead at 10:00.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 12:46 PM) Given that they had 5 seemingly starting caliber players for only 4 positions, I fail to see how removing the oldest and least versatile of the bunch could be seen as throwing in the towel. Especially when the player struggling the most at the time was reportedly upset with the situation. Sure, I am of the opinion that if the team was likely to make the playoffs, Jim would not have been moved. I saw it as pretty damn close to a white flag being raised.

The moves do not exist in a vacuum. We would love to have upgrades at every position, never happens. Do I want to dig some holes to fill in problem areas? Maybe not.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 12:05 PM) GOP has it. His name is Glenn Beck. I thought he was a journalist with some career credentials. I'm thinking they are looking for a Joe the Plumber. I'm thinking some retiree who was screwed over my medicare or the VA. Perhaps from Obama's district.

Yikes, that may hurt them in the long run. Why wasn't there a physical BEFORE the signing?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:58 AM) Yeah, in my experience, 3-year-olds are probably a lot less likely to be bigoted in any way shape or form than adults. They haven't "learned" that ugliness yet - to them, other kids are other kids. Mom claims it was teachers . . .

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 11:06 AM) I voted Tigers. I have to much hate for the Twins. Besides the Tigers have Magglio. O-E-O!! As for rooting for the NL, I can never bring myself to do that, though I too would like to see Thome get a ring. Agreed. There are only a few matchups where I would cheer for the NL.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:58 AM) Agreed. I'd like to see Thome get a ring. I usually cheer for the AL in the World Series, but there are a couple teams where I would change, Seeing Thome get a ring would be tops, other years situations like St. Louis with Tony, Houston, maybe Pittsburg.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 09:01 AM) SS, that is an awesome post so many layers, so many ways to interpret

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:31 AM) Some sort of solar roofing shingle material is the first logical step to me. Definitely before roadways, I meant first step for solar roadways. I see a home application before US 94 or 35th St.

For the integrity of the game, every team should play their best in these games. Anything less is a road towards professional wrestling. Having said this, Go Tigers! It has been a storied franchise, Detroit as a city could use something good happening, and I'm so burned out by Minny. And going into the playoffs, I will cheer for the AL Central team until they are eliminated. Overall, go Dodgers!

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:25 AM) http://www.americainfra.com/news/solar-roadways/ I thought this was, while most completely impossible (price tag not withstanding), a really neat idea. Prices always fall with technology, unless that is already factored in. That is an awesome idea. But I am thinking about all the other factors that a roadway has to have. Safety, wet weather traction, snow removal, etc etc etc. Just amazing if it would work. Home models would seem like the first application.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 10:05 AM) KW should realize the team he put together wasnt THAT talented. It was his mistake to rely on aging sluggers. Thome did pretty much what you'd expect, Konerko had a bounce back year, Dye had an extremely long dreadful stretch when you'd least want it. And you can throw a little blame on Ozzie for not moving AJP up in the order earlier. But really it's on KW. If you built for 2010 with your trades, say so. Dont hide behind saying the guys underachieved just to cover your own ass. What is that supposed to accomplish? You are correct about K-Dubya, but I'd have to add, there is plenty of blame to go around. No one is guilt free, no one had a career year, from the ownership group to .

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 09:39 AM) The season is over now. Its a little different. Yeah, you are right, but the organization has been quitting for a couple weeks. That was my point.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Sep 24, 2009 -> 08:48 PM) I understand that. But to bastardize it and have the government take over damn near everything under the sun is not what the founders had in mind for our country. So true. The founders may not have had in mind a lot of things. I'm not certain how well they imagines the US circa 2009. So the challenge becomes determining what we should continue to follow and what we should change. What seems obvious to us today, like women voting, was not obvious to them, or obvious to Americans when the changes were happening. If your point is we then should be very damn careful what we change, and only change, if at all, after a thorough debate, than I agree 100%.

Let's see, The club is talking about shutting down a few players, but K-Dubya says don't quit. I see Thome out west, but K-Dubya says don't quit.

I was just thinking about WalMart's role in this. It is probably the best policy for WalMart to always turn these over when they see genitalia. Imagine if they had not and later abuse was discovered? They would have been toasted, roasted, and burned at the stake for that.
