Jose Abreu

Y is x such an under-appreciated letter? It's the Jose Quintana of the alphabet.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 5m5 minutes ago To clarify: My sources have not said James Shields has *accepted* offer of 4 years between $72M and $80M. But that is #Padres offer.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 8m8 minutes ago Source: #Padres' most recent offer to James Shields was four years and between $72 million and $80 million.

Will do

U make no sense as well

Robertson was unranked

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 04:02 PM) Serious question from a casual NBA observer. How is Atlanta so good? I look over their roster and it doesn't seem special at all. What am I missing? Team chemistry, I guess. They're basically a bunch of good role players.

Compare the predictions so far to last year's: http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=90943

I'd say .332/31/128. I expect many more RBI chances with this new lineup.

"Yes this person got sick right after having the vaccine, but the vaccine set off a condition that is genetic and would have been triggered by something else had it not been the vaccine - in fact, that's why some people can't be vaccinated." "Yes, people did get polio from the vaccine for a time, but they switched vaccine formats based on the science to eliminate that". "Here's the basics of what we actually know about autism". ETc. That's a good link, thank you

At least this thread has taught me some new words that begin with an x.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 12:28 PM) Sometimes players can't do something. Yes, but any NBA player should be able to pass out of a double team. Hell, any middle school player should be able to as well.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 11:58 AM) Exactly, I havent picked it back up because Im just stuck. Its stupid. I only do the main missions that are required for progress. Have you already beaten the game, or are you just trying to do every mission?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 10:52 AM) The refutation of Andrew Wakefield's work is a good place to start. He was instrumental in the early "vaccines cause autism" crap. Right, my teacher told me I should look him up. This is a good tip as well, thanks

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 11:14 AM) If Taj passed once he gets double teamed in the post, that'd help. This. I feel like this has been a huge problem that not many people have been realizing/discussing.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Feb 6, 2015 -> 10:39 AM) Good luck. You've got the difficult side because BS is 100 times harder to refute than to spew. I'd expect your opponents to cite obscure, badly performed studies showing autism-vaccine links and unless you're familiar with those studies, you won't know their particular methodological problems. Perhaps point out the Autism Omnibus Proceedings, where a huge group of people claiming their children got autism from MMR vaccine, were asked to provide their 3 best cases proving a causal link. They lost the trial, badly. Also, keep hammering vaccine success stories like smallpox eradication, the downfall of polio, and huge drops in incidence for HiB, pertussis, measles, etc. Thanks, that's a good tip. I'll use that

I'm doing a pro-con speech in my high school english class on vaccinations. Any suggestions? My stance will be pro-vaccinations and I have to refute all of the autism concerns
