baggio202

this is just my opinion and im no expert on finance so take it for what its worth..nothing if this war is a slam dunk there will be alot of confidence in our president and government..that usually translates into consumer confidence and more spending...which helps strengthen the ecomony and the dollar... if it doesnt go as planned you might be able to come over here and buy the whole country how you feel about the war should have alot of effect on your investments in regaurds to the US imo...

so anyone who is pro life has no integrity???...

ypu confuse me...do you not believe in danny wright's stuff...or in his confidence??? they are 2 different things

and wtf was willie harris doing???....he catches the ball over his left shoulder taking a step backwards???....you go deeper than that ball and catch it comming forward so your momentium is carrying you towards home plate...granted even if did that he doesnt get the runner but you still have to try...you never know..the guy might stuble a little or something and a perfect throw could get him...its the never say die attitude id be looking at if im jerry manuel in alot of these guys...willie needs to hang out with aaron miles more

recipe for a loser tie game..walk the lead off man...then field a bunt and throw into CF...2 batters.. the ball travels a total of 40 feet and 2 guys are on base....bye bye porzio...

i wouldnt say they have no case..i didnt think they had a case in 94 and they won...with the courts today..never say never damaso looking good...real good...i see him as our future closer...i think he could be better than koch...just needs a chance...wont be this year but he will closing somewhere soon

Yeah I agree........I wonder why we signed him to a Minor League contract and not a Major League one...... he's been solid as hell. because we could...hell daubber will be one of the guys the union uses as an example of colusion when the sue the owners...guy is in his porime and hit 20 or more each of the last 4 years , is a lefty and can play 3 positions and no one offered him a major league deal???..plus he has the rep as a great clubhouse guy that plays the game the right way...makes no sense make no sense why boston let him go..its not like tony clark or fake giambi are the 2nd comming of lou gerhig

Toppling of Saddam will bring peace to region. What about the Saudi government who oppresses women and non-Muslims (a childhood friend of mine and his fiance are in Saudi Arabia w/ Navy Intelligence) They came back on leave and said that like they have to stay on base nearly 24-7 because the US is so disliked over there. The Saudis oppress people that don't agree with their royal family. Kuwait does the same. Does that mean that we need to topple all these governments because they oppress people also? Sharon won't negotiate with Arafat and if you believe that, that's a pipe dream. The same for Arafat negotiating with Sharon. They've been fighting for 3000 years. Why would they stop if Saddam is toppled? sharon and arafat wont always be in charge either..but if the situation changes there to where all the arab countries in the region are willing to recognize israel it would be politcal suicide for sharon not to go to the negoatiating table... myself i would like to see tony blair head the coalition to try and bring peace in that region..i think he is very well suited at stuff like that...like i said it wont be easy but alteast there is a chance...before there never was

If we start the season off like we finished last year, yes. i hope so..then KW doesnt have the attendance excuse to not improve this team come the trade deadline

hate to see that..i don t want anyone injured....

nice at bat by the daubber..im so glad we picked him up..he is gonna be a nice addition to this team

garland is looking sharp..his curve looks better this year in the desert then it did in chicago last year...lee looks like the carlos of old..runner on 1st and he pulls an outside pitch to SS for a DP...please jerry dont bat him 2nd...crede looking good...donger and about 3 nice plays at 3rd..daubach made a nice stretch to save joe an error on one...jose and d'angelo looked in mid season form on that last dp...overall looking real good

If Bush goes to war, it'll be the stupidest mistake he has ever made (well besides being a chickenhawk, a coke addict, a boozehound, and saying his favorite childhood book which didn't come out until after he graduated from college) Even you've seen the polls that said only 20% of the US believes that we should go to war without a UN Resolution. He'll be going against the nation. And I am glad that you can jest about the death and destruction of innocent Iraqis. That brings such a warm fuzzy feeling to me heart. have you listen to any iraqis in this country???....you wont find one that doesnt want the US to go in and take out saddam...the guy is a butcher..he is pure evil...youre the one condoning the killing of innocent iraqi men , women and children with your opposition to this war...someday maybe youll realize that.. Killing killers only makes more killers. There are diplomatic ways to topple Saddam that don't involve body bags for our troops. I advocate those methods. dimplomatic ways to topple saddam...its been 12 years and he is still there as strong as ever.. whats the goal of the diplomacy there??...old age??? diplomacy only works if it is backed up by a real threat of war...

If a nation completely disarms all their weapons, what is to stop other nations (i.e. Iran...we do remember the Iran-Iraq war, correct?) from invading and taking over? Complete disarmament is a pipe dream for any nation. Any country is going to keep weapons on hand for defense. If Iraq wasn't so close to our terrorist pal, Israel (don't get me wrong, I condemn Palestinian terrorism as well...I think Sharon and Arafat are both hardline non-negotiating f***s that need to get out of power for any sort of progress to be made) then Iraq wouldn't be so much of a problem (cuz let's face it...Iraqi missiles can't hit us, but they can hit Israel which is the main reason we want them to disarm) We are worried about a man who possibly has capabilities to attack us. Yet, we are not worrying about a man who has nuclear capabilities who can theoretically hit the United States with a missile. We are not worrying about the man who has orchestrated the horrific 9/11 attacks. We are not worrying about trying to alleviate an incredibly s***ty economy. We're worried about a 3rd world moderately secular country with a leader who we provided with a vast array of weapons in the 1980s. I'd rather worry about groups that have attacked us then worrying about using military force against countries who have never attacked us. I mean, Ashcroft is raping our civil liberties, we can at least make the cost worthwhile, right US government? getting rid of saddam could very well lead to peace in the middle east....president bush recognizes that both israel and palastine are legit...other arab countries now recognize israel...that hasnt been the case before....the only real hardliner left that refuses to recognize israel is saddam..get him out and then diplomacy has a chance to work in that region...for the first time in thousands of years... What about the groups like HAMAS, Hizbollah, Islamic Jihad, et al. in the region that have plagued that region? They don't recognize Israel. They are the ones terrorizing the Jews there. none of those groups are legitimate governemnts...of course there will always be extremist groups...we have them in this country...you got the KKK on one side..and then you on the other ...but if every country in the region recognizes israel and israel recognizes a palastinian state..there can be peace in that region....those splinter groups will have a much harder time operating if they have no country in the region that will let them live and train there...im not saying its gonna be easy or it will happen...but i think if saddam is removed for the first time there is a chance to make real progress...

I disagree. 2000 was a magical season. As late as September, the critics were still waiting for the Sox to "come down to earth" and roll over for the Indians, and it never happened. The defining moment of the year was when we went to Cleveland and NY for 7 games and won all 7. That made a statement to the world that they were for real and that they weren't going to go away. So while the "WFT" cost the franchise a lot of fans and whatnot, I think all was healed in 2000 and what we were able to accomplish and coming out of nowhere. Hopefully our guys can top '00 in '03. if all is healed then we can expect 2.5 million or so this year in attendance???

Did it get us to the WS like Schueler and JR had planned. Nope. Did any of those players do anything for us in the 2000 playoffs? Nope. Has Koch done anything in a White Sox uniform? Nope. When you find a positive (other than having Foulke and trading him for Koch) to the WFT, let me know. None of those players have gotten the Sox to the WS. More than likely, Alvarez and Co. wouldn't have either. So until I see some results, and we have none of the players currently from the nucleus of the WFT, this goes down as a Worst Day in White Sox History. CubKilla, as I have said before, If there was an icon of a smiley clapping I would post it hear applauding this statement. Until Koch shows us something in the regular season, he has still the same amount for the White sox that ALvarez or Darwin has. So, I applaud you... CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP! you cant look at a trade and say, the wft was good because we got foulke in the trade and eventually traded him for koch....so it worked out.. if you do that you could never end up evaluationg a trade....you go follow the lineage of a trade for 60 years and still debate it....if we didnt make the Wft and now wanted koch..we could have gotten him...we didnt have to have foulke to make that trade..we would have had another closer in his place we could have used to make that move.... the book has been closed on the WFT...it sucked..it was the 2nd worst moment in this franchises history...all those players are gone and what we got in return was one division title and a 3 and out in the playoffs...that trade labled the sox as quitters...and cost the sox thousands of fans..the franchise hasnt been the same since...after the lessons learned from that trade no team in baseball will ever give up only 3 games back...most now still try to trade for help when they are 10 games back just so no one can make an even remote connection the the white sox and the WFT...its a burden we will carry as long as the sox exist...

hopefully kordell signs with arizona and forces that dumbass angelo to draft leftwich..angelo is a moron...kordell stewart...yeah he'll lead us to the superbowl

He wouldn't give his personal stances on the issues. When a man won't say where he stands, he should not become a judge. It is the Senate's duty to scrutinize possible judges according to the Constitution. It's over with now. Score one for the left! Where's that GOP majority now, eh? Couldn't even stop a filibuster. thats alright apu..we will be scoring quite a few for the right in about 9 days

and you think players are looking at the bears as a better option???

hey mike.. i would have came by but my car isnt running right now ...dont have anyway to get there..have a great show..ill try next time...good luck

inflamation of the elbow....thats not good

no he is not a notorious member of the extreme right wing...his record is impeccable..whatever his personal views are he has not allowed them to alter his view of the law...which is pretty mainstream... back when our forefathers decided who would appoint judges they could have given that task to congress..instead they gave it to the president...its president bush's right as the elected president (get over the stolen election crap) to appoint judges...there was nothing in estrada's record to warrant a filibuster by the democrats....what the dems did was s*** all over the constitution...but you should be used to that... remember even though this guy is not cuban he has ties to their communites...im sure the cuban community in miami will not forget this....they made the dems pay for elian..they will make them pay for this too

yes you are..thats exactly what you are doing...right now as we exchange ideas iraqi citizens are being tortured and murder under the reign of terror that is saddam...everyday this man stays in power more and more of his own people die....didnt it strike you as funny that with the millions of people marching against this war you never saw an iraqi living outside iraq protesting???...did you watch WGN news tonight???....they had a group of iraqi citizens that live in chicago on...everyone of them is begging president bush to go now....did you watch mtv europe's chat with tony blair???...did you see the one iraqi that now lives in england as he was almost crying thanking tony blair for his stand on iraq and telling him he couldnt wait for saddam to be removed???...they had 4 other iraqis on that show...now from this group of people your age ..college students...of the 5 iraqis 4 couldnt wait for the military action to start..the other was a female that hated saddam but was woried that bombs might actually end up killing more iraqis than saddam in the long run...but she understood why we were doing this...millions of iraqis have left iraq under saddam because he has perpertrated crimes against them and / or their families... you dont take a stand against saddam then you are helping to empower him....
