Watch the video, he pretty much voluntarily removes all of the benefit of the doubt. From now on, it is perfectly ok to boo him. Who was the last s***ty player to call Chicago fans out and invite them to boo him? Cade McNown?

Man, the only thing more annoying than people who b**** about everything is people who b**** about people who b**** about everything. Or people who come up with the same arguments repeatedly against the people who b**** about everything. Or people who b**** about people who come up with the same arguments repeatedly against the people who b**** about everything.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 11:01 AM) I had a post on here somewhere about how pharma companies work, seeing as how I used to work for one. And also how to reduce costs. Had to do with taxes or something didn't it?

It's right there in the news feed, at 3 am it moves slow and sits up there for a few hours. 3 pm it won't be there for more than 5-10 mins (if you have a s***-ton of friends from being on there too much like I do).

I'm not even going to entertain these Favre discussions anymore.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 11:51 PM) how do you suggest we force the health care industry to lower their outrageous prices? Regulate the profits of insurance companies and the drug manufacturers (how to do this, I don't know). I'm not sure which one of those I hate more, but they work together. Drug companies can charge whatever they want, and the consumer never even knows how much they're paying since their insurance pays for it. And oh by the way - if you need to use your insurance, they charge you for it. It's pretty obvious the only thing they're interested is money, not your health. They don't even try to hide it. I don't think our current system is in the public's best interest at all.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 07:39 AM) I think its for Gobble, unless they were just so disgusted by Colon's last outing they dump him. Poreda isn't going to start IMO, and Thornton is starting to make a lot of appearances. I think he becomes Matt Thornton Jr. I doubt it. I guess we'll find out here pretty soon. This makes much more sense than calling up Beckham did.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 09:55 PM) I don't think he has much room to talk tbh with you. No he really doesn't, but he still kind of has a point.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 09:33 PM) I know, the government can always do it better. Every time this is asked of you, you can't come up with an answer. Name me what would universally be called a good entitlement government program that is ran efficiently and doesn't cost more then they originally said it would - while still maintaining all the services that are promised. Private industry ALWAYS does it better then the government - even if private industry sucks. I'm more concerned with fixing this particular private industry, it's hilarious how bold they are about ripping us off without the slightest concern for consequences or backlash. The costs need to get under control, and more people will be able to afford it. Admittedly I don't know how to do that, but I'm not in a position where I should, either.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 08:51 PM) Not anymore that is... No, nobody was before, either. Even when he's not sucking, Brian can't lead off.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 05:05 PM) First 15,000 fans get chopsticks to skewer their eyeballs during the Sox ABs. I would rather have blasting caps.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 04:56 PM) We call up the best prospect we've had in a decade and a half and let him ride the pine after a difficult start? Ladies and gentlemen, Ozzie Guillen.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 04:41 PM) It's funny you mention that, since the hit and run has actually worked fairly well this season while nobody on the team can bunt. But Ozzie hasn't been known to use anyone to their strengths. As long as it isn't Lillibridge being counted on to deliver the hit

There's a time and a place for it, and certain types of players who can do it, but it's WAY overused. It's a waste of a perfectly good plate appearance most of the time.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) Cocaine is a hell of a drug. Apparently

QUOTE (whitesoxmanager @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 03:27 PM) so kobe said the tearing in the vagina that led to the bleeding was because he is big? QUOTE (whitesoxmanager @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 03:30 PM) nice goaltending missed call eh? since when was it ok to stick your hand into the net and rim on a layup attempt? W T F

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 03:17 PM) I almost get the feeling that Ozzie is trying to prove the fans wrong when they say this guy sucks. Its amazing he is on a major league roster. He would easily make it through waivers IMO. He already did once.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 02:05 PM) I really hope he asks for it and sticks to his guns, because that might be the straw that breaks this stupid draft system's back finally. I would LOVE to see the draft done the way the NBA does it with very strict and tight price ranges based on where a player is picked. Pretty much single-handedly s*** on by Boras, too.

God I hate Scott Boras

That comment is probably based on him blowing it in the playoffs 2 years ago. Not that this should have any relevance to today, but to a Cubs fan, it does.

If missile defense was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me.

My god you guys are killing me. Reciting the same talking points over and over for a campaign, and giving a bunch of speeches isn't the same as entertaining an audience daily. Yes he could probably do it. But he is not Rush Limbaugh. They do 2 totally different things.

Ok, Palin off rambling again, complaining about cuts in missile defense being a sign of weakness. I'd love to be able to say "ignore her and she will go away" but that's not happening, because every time she speaks the conservative base nuts on itself. Ok, so in other words, this is Exhibit A why I still think the GOP is still absolutely clueless - harp on fiscal responsibility, but still not being fiscally responsible. Cut those taxes (nevermind that the overall tax burden hasn't been this low in a generation or so), but spend billions on technology we still haven't managed to make work (it's like trying to shoot a fly while it's moving with a sniper rifle from a mile away, not as easy as it sounds). Defense spending is the answer to everything, even if it's unaffordable and we have a massive deficit we need to get under control. Thump the Bible a little harder.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 10:57 AM) Maybe is just me, but didn't Obama do exactly that for about two years on the campaign trail? Give a bunch of stump speeches and interviews?
