Down with NATO! Down with the UN! Long live the USA! We dont need these pussies! Look, who provides the muscle for these punks? You got it! The USA! So lets pull out the muscle and show them all that we can be! Actually, kudos to Britain for actually having some balls and coming with us. Cheers to em...

Thats ok, let France be a little dirtbag. But the next time some Hitler wannabe comes barging into Frances backyard (and those French pussies run for cover), they can kiss our democracy lovin arse! Death to France!

Yep, it was Loaiza. I really hope he makes the rotation, he totally deserves it.

Thank you Spiff! You see, France wouldnt be so bad if they were just an all around peace loving nation. They would still be a bit ungrateful but they wouldnt be fricken hypocrites. But they bully these little defenseless countries and then when a true foe steps up, France cant get up in their face, and then they try to stop others from doing so. If they worked to stop war in Africa and in the Middle East thatd be cool. Heck, even if they advocated war in both, thatd be cool. But to try to have a little there and none over here, that aint cool. This isnt about being antiwar, this is about France being a hypocrite. France, stop beating up the little guys and then you can advocate peace. Until then, shut the heck up!

That moron Chirac isnt taking a stand for the good of the world, hes taking a stand for the good of France, a nation of cowards and snobs. Its the economic relations France has with Iraq that keeps Frnace from doing anything. Well, actually, France never does anything anyways. Heck, Im sure if suddenly America got a bit pissed with, say, Sierra Leone, Chirac would be happy to wage war. Primarily because Sierra Leone doesnt have much of a way to defend itself and because France just enjoys picking on its former colonies. Yet try to wage war with an economic ally (thats also a threat to world security) and a nation that can actually fight, and France will be running for cover. Screw the French. The cowards never take any action anyways and besides, what are they gonna do about it? Thats right! Nothin!

I hate France. And a lot of people in this country do as well. There were some letters in the paper the other day that just ripped France to pieces. I agree with them completely. Among the things I read were (these are paraphrased): - Dont let the French fight. Heck, wed probably be to busy protecting them and wed wouldnt be able to fight the Iraqis. - When it comes to attacking primitive tribes armed with spears, France is an expert. But when it comes to a stand up fight, France cant be counted on. There were more but I dont remember them. Still, it was some pretty brutal yet very true stuff.

Paul? What the heck? Burke should get the backup job, hes earned it. Paul hasnt done anything to deserve that spot in his entire life...

Youre great clujer. Love your updates and as wsf mentioned the side notes can be quite funny. So keep up the good wrok man!

Hey soxrox, Ive met people who would ask that same question in all seriousity. For some foreigners, that question is not as outrageuos as we all think...

Im so glad this games on TV! Woohoo! That was a NICE defensive play for Frank. I just hope he doesnt tear something during ST. That would bite. But its great to see him giving it his all and having fun...

I couldnt even tell you where DePaul is until you told me...

Oh, maybe it did get noticed after all... Oops...

Happy birthday dude. And speaking of birthdays, I believe yesterday was kevingrts b-day and Im not sure it got any notice. So happy belated birthday kevingrt!

Well, Im not watching on TV so I can only see the stats and dominating such a weak team in ST usually doesnt mean much. But if hes looking as good as you say I could be wrong, and in this case that isnt neccesarily a bad thing...

Loaiza is lookin darn good and I think he will make the rotation but lets remember this is ST against the Cubs. Shutting them down doesnt make esteban Loaiza the next Randy Johnson... But anyway, hes looking pretty good and I think hes our fourth/fifth starter, depending on what happens to Danny...

Man, the Cubs defense stinks. But then again, why am I surprised?

LMAO...Felix Fermin? It was him and Reggie Jefferson for Omar. Great trade, M's. I remember Jefferson. He used to play for boston didnt he? Was pretty decent if memory serves me right...

Thank you God. Justice has been done. America and Texas did the right thing today. Now we can all sleep easy. Now this man deserves a pardon. Yet even if he gets it, nothing can make up for 23 lost years of life. His story is a sad one anyway you look at it...

Unfortunately its being contradicted by something terribly tragic. Go to my thread, "A true tragedy" to find out...

Hey clujer, keep it up man! I sure enjoy it. And especially because theres no site that broadcasts ST games...

Today, a true tragedy is taking place. The state of Texas is going to give an innocent man a lethal shot and then they are going to celebrate the fact that this man was the 300th person theyve murdered since the death penalty was revived in the state in 1982. Those trigger happy Texans dont have a care in the world for justice or fairness and they dont care that tonight at 7 o'clock (Im on the east coast so it might be 7:00 Texas time but either way this is going to happen today) an innocent man will die at their hand. And years from now the true murderers wont remember the completely corrupt trial or even Banks name, theyll just remember the number of people who went before him. Two hundred and ninety nine. In 1980, the black Delma Banks was accused of murdering a white teenager named Richard Whitehead. His trial went wrong from the start. First, he was given an all white jury. Texas had laws outlawing any minorities from jury duty. Then it was proven that at the time of the murder, Banks was in Texas, 3 hours away from Nash, scene of the murder. And the two major testimonies were based on the words of two drug addicts. One was a paid informant, the other was told that if he performed well against Banks he would get off a recent arson charge. If Ive correctly assumed the time Delma Banks now has three minutes to live. Then yet another innocent man will die in this tragedy. So from this whole fiasco, weve got two innocent dead men, two free druggies and a free murder whos sitting in his nice cozy house somewhere snickering about our own wrongdoing. I truly hope the court stops this executiong and all executions for that matter but that likely wont happen. In this time where most of our country is worrying about evils done thousands of miles away, I just thought some light should be shined on an evil committed right here at home. Long live Delma Banks!

Yes, please keep it up, clujer. That mlb radio doesnt work for me and I need somewhere to see the score and whats going on. Youre updates are really cool, especially when were winning. BTW, its pretty cool to see that Thomas has two hits and that Bartolo is doing well...

France really is led by a bunch of morons. I have no problem with them going against us but the fact that they tell other countries not to go against us or else is blackmailing and that doesnt deserve our friendship. But whatever, they can be Iraqs friends. Their military is weaker than Iraqs and their economy depends on Iraq and thats why Chirac doesnt want a war. Hes preaches peace in Iraq but then he goes off and then he supports Saddam whos only the worst and most brutal dictator of our time. Whatta hypocrite. And another thing, we dont need Frances help in this war. The only war theyve ever won is the French Revolution and thats cuz they were the only ones fighting! So screw em, we dont need em!

Bad and a coward? Possibly yes. The worst? No. Clintons lying and adultery was by far more embarrassing to this country. I lived in Spain and people basically told me that any nation who would democratically elect such a clown just sucks. I didnt really care because any nation where 9th graders smoke right beside teachers doesnt look too good either but still I just Clinton. He was a fool who disgraced America and by pulling out of Somalia after 18 Americans died showed terrorists that we'll just leave should they happen to kill a few of our soldiers. Im not saying we should have gone in again and had more people die but maybe a chopper strike, to show that if you kill our soldiers their deaths will be avenged. Other than that I agree with most of what youve said in this thread...

Sorry but Porzio sucks. Im glad hes the one who stunk it up and not someone whos really important to the team. He aint ever gonna play on the Southside. No big deal.
