These Mccain ads with Hillary are just bad. They really don't make any sense. They seem really half ass.

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Aug 27, 2008 -> 06:00 PM) Anybody suprized to see Swisher starting tonight because he came out last night? I thought Ozzie had an injury rule if you come out, you sit the next day. I think they are trying to load up on lefties today against Liz.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 27, 2008 -> 04:45 PM) I just realized that I witnessed the first African-American be nominated as a presidential canidate for a major political party. Pretty damn cool. It was pretty amazing. Considering that in the near past a man of his skin color couldn't even play in MLB.

That nominaion thing is pretty cool. Next time they should have whiskey involved.

QUOTE (YASNY @ Aug 27, 2008 -> 02:38 PM) Well, I'll say this much in response. Obama scares the hell out of me. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him ... and before anybody throws race into the equation ... I gave Obama a legitimate chance early in the primaries. In fact, I despised Hillary and Obama was an unknown in my mind. Today, I'd vote for Hillary in a heartbeat over Obama. That said, I also plan to vote McCain in the general .... BUT!!!!! ... If he actually is a continuation of GWB then we are f***ed either way we go. Why does Obama scare the hell out of you?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 10:53 PM) one would hope. but some people are stubborn or stupid. Well there will be a few, but I think the majority of her supporters will be there. Hopefully.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 09:43 PM) I never said it was a good one. I am just trying to make a simple point that when you spend all your time working foe one goal and the dream is squashed, it's really tough to pivot and move another direction. I think they are very sad that she didn't get it, but they will vote for Obama. They are diehards, they won't sit home on election day.

Awesome. I hope he is forgotten in this town. It seemed like he hated all of Chicago. Hawk will be very happy tomorrow. We will hear about it all game.

I cry because Dennis Kucinich didn't get the nomination. Where is my TV time!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 10:19 PM) So this interview on CNN with this Hillary supporter....um, yeah Yeah. I just don't get it. It freaks me out to be honest.

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 03:42 PM) Were you guys with the weight gain working out at the time of quitting? I am trying to hit the gym 3 times/week to maybe curb that problem... I have always wondered if the weight gain thing is because you tend to eat more when you are not smoking or since tobacco is a stimulant your metabolism slows... With me It was eating. I actually had a better appetite though. I wasn't working out at the time.

I wonder if the Orioles will ever be good again.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 07:05 PM) LOL toby putting it on another gear Toby only has one gear. Not so fast gear.

Camden yards looks empty. Shame, it looks like a nice place. Anyone ever been there?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 02:41 PM) I smoked from about 15 till 22, and then quit when I graduated college. I quit by switching to "dip" instead of smoking, which helped me gradually get myself off tobacco. I did experience a weight gain however. I had the weight gain to. About 10 pounds or so.

I smoked for 10 years and just quit cold turkey back in January. I say screw all that gum and patch stuff. That stuff just reminds you of smoking all day. For a week or two it was hard. I will never go back, unless there is some sorta major world war. Than i'm back on the horse.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 01:10 PM) A couple of things about this; It sounds like a little late summer / early fall recreational learning baseball league. I have no real problem if that is the case as if the kid is that dominating it is not a real learning experience but by 9 years old instructional should not be the case The sponsorship thing is a little tricky there and did not make sense. The pussification of America is well underway but the flip side of that is that kids are playing sports at areally young age 6,7 and 8 year-olds are a -lot different than 9,10 and 11 year olds. That is why when Mike North used to rant about everyone gettting a trophy I had to laugh as I see nothing wrong with this when you are trying to give a basic understanding to really young kids on how to play the game correctly. Although the IHSA is trying to give every team a state championship but I digress. What is the pussification of America exactly?

If we could get him back for the last ten or so games i'd be excited.

We should sign him to a minor league deal. He would be one of our top prospects.

You can't fool Alexi.

Walk Thome? Isn't Ramirez batting like .450 with runners in scoring position.

I wonder if somehow AJ does this stuff or he has a horseshoe up his ass.

AJ says get outta here fool!!!

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Aug 21, 2008 -> 11:10 PM) Uh, yeah. In 1990, 0.61 ERA 73K to 4BB 48 Saves, 5 ER for the whole year?!!!??!?!?! That is just unreal. 4 walks and 5 ER the whole year! That is about as good as it gets.

16th time this year we scored ten runs or more. We are 15-1 in those games.
