QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Mar 19, 2009 -> 10:54 AM) So who authorized the checks to be cut? He didn't 'know' about these and try to find a way to stop them, KNOWING the PR s***storm that would rain down? You mean Liddy? He got there after it already happened, it wasn't his idea.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 19, 2009 -> 10:27 AM) They could have just hired an actual deer and shined headlights in its eyes instead of paying this idiot.

The f*** is wrong with these idiots? Liddy is not the one we should be pissed at. He was chosen to clean up this mess. He's basically volunteered to do it. Do these assholes even read the news? http://news.yahoo.com/s/bloomberg/20090319...rg/a5n3qjeqkhbs

QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Mar 19, 2009 -> 01:24 AM) I'd take Jose Lopez at 2nd base over Brian Anderson at CF in a heartbeat. I get that you hate Brian Anderson and never think he will amount to anything, but this statement doesn't even vaguely resemble something that would make sense. What's a 2B have to do with a CF? You're just kind of reaching for more reasons to hate Anderson and going around in circles.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 09:37 PM) And yet, New Jersey was. That's because he was old, and sucked. He did his last couple of years in Green Bay too actually.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 06:17 PM) About page 6 or 7 it starts to get ridiculous. I wasn't on this board then, but I'm about halfway through it now, and I feel like I'm witnessing a brutal rape in progress.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 06:03 PM) Your Dweezy hate sickens me.. but also makes sense. I approve. I love it. Convert the non-believers. Plus, whenever someone pipes up about how he's the answer, Kalapse does it for me better than I could and saves me the effort.

QUOTE (Cubano @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 02:52 PM) I am mourning. If he handles his business in AAA (still a pretty high place to be for his age) I'm sure he'll see MLB time in '09. Anything could happen.

Sully, that was an outstanding read, especially for a non-Sox fan (you're on our turf therefore "Sox" means "White Sox", lol). I'm going to check out some of your others when I get time.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 02:01 PM) I don't see how you got that out of the situation. Viciendo is 20 years old and will be in AAA, outside of Jon Garland, I can't think of many 20 year olds we have seen on our AAA team. Fields is clearly playing well enough to earn the 3B spot, and splitting time and at-bats will do nothing for Viciendo's potential and progress. Brandon Allen going to AA instead of AAA actually surprised me the most. No "n" in Dayan's last name, FWIW. It's pronounced ""Vee-see-AY-doh"

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 01:31 AM) you better believe KW would balance the 11 Trillion dollar deficit... probably through a series of acquisitions of young promising talent, and former 1st Rd draft picks. Can't spend a dollar if all you have is 50 cents.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:59 AM) I guess depending on how you look at it... Still, who is posting SNL or South Park as a source to defend their political beliefs? Who is posting those sources as a reply to something in the news? How many of those shows have politicians on there to make political statements? By the same definition, no one should ever attack Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck. I cite George Carlin sometimes (got shot down in my argument a couple times though, lol)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:44 AM) I don't really feel like getting into a silly semantic arguement, so I will repeat what I keep saying. It's not really semantics though, it's the source of your disagreement with me and StrangeSox (who seems to have the same position as me)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:41 AM) That's where we all disagree. Stewart isn't attempting satire. Its hit and run journalism of the lowest degree. I don't see him as a comedian, not for a second. Fair enough. What do you see in Colbert, then? Since his act is obviously making fun of right-wing talk show hosts.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:37 AM) Of course that is what he says. Why would he want to do all of the work of having integrity, when he gets to make his point and not be held responsible for his body of work like any other journalists? That's exactly why he hides as a "comedian". I just can't get down with this logic. If I was to accept it at face value, I'd find anybody who did political humor a pathetic hypocrite. I'm a political junkie so good political humor is hilarious to me, I don't even care about the lean.

SS, Keith Olbermann fits the description of what you're talking about much better than Stewart does.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:29 AM) Journalism sucks in this country anymore, there is no two ways around that. Anymore? When was it ever good? There are no "good old days" of American journalism. /bmags

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:25 AM) For comedians who bring people onto their show to criticize them for actions they should have taken, when they, themselves, haven't take respective actions, I will say the samething about them. But why would he take those actions? He's not a journalist and he doesn't want to be. He's a comedian, a pretty smart and hilarious one I might add.

I'm guessing the market's about stabilized now, and stopped bleeding.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 08:15 AM) Steal? The government gave AIG $180B or something like that so far. This is just taking a very small slice back, which is ultimately the idea with most of that money anyway. Isn't the $180 actually a line of credit and AIG's actually only been given around 40B?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:15 AM) Kinda like Al Franken is a comedian? Sorry, I don't buy the company line on Rush Stewart for a second. He gets the best of both worlds because he hides behind his little "comedy" badge anytime he gets questioned. Its a straight up b**** move if you ask me. So would you say the same thing about any comedian that does political comedy? You really should. Al Franken WAS a comedian, now he's a comedian who ran for office and now he's a Senator.

Pierzynski 12... lol I know him via a few different forums (and different screen names of course, his posting style is really easy to spot), he really is a waste of the Earth's resources.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 02:36 PM) I'm looking forward to watching the Bulls get skull-f***ed by Boston on WGN tonight. ^^Fail. f***ing moron.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 11:00 PM) THATS BULLCOCKY It is. KW should be running the country.

Eh, it'd be nice, but running the country > White Sox
