    That totally blows my mind! :eek

     

    They can't make it official until Wednesday, but it's almost certain he will go there. He wants to play on the East Coast and for a "perinnial contender". Even if JR was willing to spend the money, he wouldn't come here... :mad:

    I think you guys are both wrong. I just booked my 2-night package on Friday night with no problem. This is my X-mas present from my parents. I figure a free weekend in a nice hotel with a couple of friends and no kids is worth the little bit of time and gas money it will take me to get there. :D

    I don't know why I continue to answer these, I don't want to hold myself out to be a moral compass or anything like that.  I am not anywhere close to perfect.  I've been married twice (*gasp* divorced?) and I had sex, even lived with, both women before we were married.  I wish I had done some things differently but all in all I don't regret how I handled things (at least with the current wife) and I don't apologize for them.  Ultimately you aren't accountable to me so you should seek answers elsewhere, where it matters.

     

    Just FYI, I'm not answering any more of these types of posts.  I can't tell for sure if they're supposed to be rhetorical or not anyway.  If you'd truly like to discuss this type of stuff send me an email ().

     

    Acutally, my question wasn't really directed towards you. It was more a general question to all those who think that sex before marriage is the ultimate end all sin. I was just pointing out that it sometimes things turn out better. Plus, by the time my three daughters are grown and out on their own, I'll only be about 45. Still young enough to go out and have fun and enjoy life IMO.

  5. Man, I can't believe I missed this thread. I need to start coming here more often. Anyways, to address the original point of the thread, my advice would be the same as others have already said. If you want to be with the "hot" new girl, at least break it off with your current g/f. At 22 your aren't really too young for marriage. I got married at 21. The thing is that when you find the person that's right for you, you'll know. If the girl you're with isn't the one, then you are probably going to break up sooner or later. So really what you need to do is figure out how much your current g/f means to you. Looks aren't always everything. Besides, if she is "the one" you'll be back together somehow anyway. That's how it was with me anyway.

     

    Here's my story: I met my wife when I was 15 (that would be 1993). We dated on and off all through high school. We were actually broke up for a total of 6 months in between. We dated other people but we always ended up back together again. We ended up having a daughter together in 1996 (2 months after she graduated. She was a year behind me.) Then we had a second one in late 1997. We were married in 1999 and have been ever since. We just celebrated our 3rd daughter's first b-day 2 weeks ago. So maybe we started a little early and did everything ass-backwards, it all worked out in the end.

     

    So here's my question: Even though I had sex before I got married, I married the first person I had sex with. Is that wrong? Also, by doing that, I was able to get two massive tax returns (declaring head of household with 2 dependents while working part-time does that..) which then enabled me to buy my first house, help pay for part of my college education and buy a decsent car to get me to my first "real" job (which I am still at). Just that little boost helped me start a life on my own with my family.

     

    Just think if I would have never had sex before marriage...

  6. Originally posted by hotsoxchick1umm its easy.. read my lips jason... he sucks and i want him out of here.. hes no good under pressure and he cant go more than 2 innings without his arm falling off.. and if in fact they give into his demands next season and let him be a starter we are in serious trouble.... ill personally go kick kennys ass for that one......lol...lol...see how easy that was to say........:P

     

    First of all, his problem early in the year was because he changed his off-season routine which caused his arm to be more tired than usual.

     

    Second, Keith has posted some pretty good numbers over the past 3 years.

     

    Number of blown saves over the past three years: 3 (2002) ,3 (2001) and 5 (2000).

     

    Compare that to the supposed "best closer in the AL" who had 4 (2002) 7 (2001) and 4 (2003).

     

    Foulke has also finished the year with an ERA under 3 the past 4 years. Thats pretty good considering what he started the year with.

     

    The only reason people think he chokes under pressure is that he's blown 2 or 3 "big" games against Minnesota and Seattle. People always seem to remember the bad over the good.

     

    Everyone remembers that he blew a game against Seattle early this year. Anyone also remember he saved a 1 run game just two nights before that? He seems to thrive when saving close games with men on.

     

    Lastly, he's should only pitch one inning. Two max. Although he can get a little shaky when pitching 2. I know for a fact that a couple of his blown saves have come when Manuel puts him in too early.

  7. Originally posted by LDFthe only prob i have with jesse is that he is and shows off the 81. 

     

    quiz, what does 81 symbolize? and i am not talking about the yr either. 

     

    I assume it has something to do with the original Jesse James.

    its a domino effect. 

     

    You are soo right it's not even funny. This town is dying for a winner and would come out in droves if they could finally have one. The only problem is that JR want's the last domino first. He won't spend money until he has money. Of course we've seen what happens when he finally does decide to spend some money (see Wells, David) so I think we are pretty much screwed anyway.

    7 more :metal

     

    Some idiot named Iwritecode started it. There wasn't really too much exciting in it. We got off the subject of tomatoes rather quickly though. I think the whole thing ended up being about 140 posts.

  10. I look at these boards kind of like I do with Coke and Pepsi. I tend to prefer one a little more than the other, but I'll drink both. I'll even have an RC every once in a while just because. It's not really a competition anyway. Both boards have their certain unique qualities and I like to enjoy them both.

     

    BTW, only 8 more posts to get to 100. I still like my tomato thread better though. ;)

    I'm taking a different approach to bowling, don't try.

     

    I try to win and all taht stuff, but towards of last year, I made up mind that I wasn't going to swear or punch anything anymore.  whether I shoot good or bad, just stay relaxed.  and since then it has worked.

     

    My average so far this season is like 178.  I still don't have a high average, but I'm making all my games count.  whenever I throw a really bad game, we usually end up winning by a lot, so I'm cool with it.

     

    Interesting approach. I guess it's the same as "don't think about it too much". If you go up there and start thinking about everything you are doing then you try to over-correct and end up screwing everything up. I wouldn't worry about having a real high average. When you do that you lose all your handicap. I know there's some nights where I wish I had a little more.

    He's been out most of the season with an injury, but he's gonna be 100% for next year and is a damn good pitcher and a great leader.

     

    I'd imagine he'd have a cheaper price tag then Maddux or Clemens so I'd think that the Sox may end up consider someone like him.

     

    Personally I'd take him cause he's a lot better then what we got on the most part.

     

    That's what we all said about Parque, Howry, Barcelo, Rauch...

     

    I'd wait at least a year for him to be back at 100%.

    i wonder if the stat would've been different if ritchie would've been taken out earlier for nardi?

     

    Sorry LDF, but you got me confused on this sentence. Do you mean if Ritchie would have been taken out earlier or if Nardi would have gotten the boot sooner?

     

    Personally, I think if Cooper would have been here at the beginning of the year, Ritchie would never have had shoulder problems...

    I'm still seeing that sign.  I just thought for some reason you had that as your avatar, lol.

     

    You want the whole I wrote code thing though.  I'll try to do something and then give you the link to put in your avatar.

     

    For some reason it had to do with me having the pic on my hard drive. I deleted it and now I'm seeing the warning. Let me know what you can do to fix it.

    nope. i see the warning.  funny. i see where it came from. lol

     

    It's really weird. It looks just fine to me. The URL is the same too. The pic hasn't changed from the site I got it from either.

    Last night when I signed on my avatar had completely changed. I was a skull on a black background that faded out and then the words "Remeber stealing bandwidth is a crime" would appear. It just kept repeating this. Now it's back to normal. Weird...

    Guess they didn't like you using their bandwith.  Kinda funny though.

     

    You must have seen what I saw last night. I don't know what was up with that. It's back to normal now...

  18. You had to know this was coming sooner or later. Been bowling lately? :D

     

    I took last winter off but bowled in a summer league. We finished .5 games out of first. Damn short season! :mad: I was sluffing a little and only ended up with like a 190 average. We just started our winter league a few weeks ago. I sandbaged the first week to keep my average down. Then the second week I shot a 630 so it shot up to a 197. So much for sandbagging... I think I'm around a 194 right now. Too early to even look at standings.

    TA DA!

     

    I'm linking from the other site (I don't know if that's acceptable or not) but it works for now.

    OK cool. BTW, I've decided that I want it as my avatar. I'll find something later for a sig. :)
