  1. AJ and ARow are supposedly up next.
  2. The rest of the organization just got back in on a 2nd plane.
  3. Mid to late November nationwide they said.
  4. QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 01:33 PM) http://www.nbc5.com/index.html THANK YOU!!!
  5. I hope to God some pictures appear on here later.
  6. QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 01:15 PM) The Nuclear Option won't be so much an option here I wager. Because there was no big fight over Roberts and no fight at all over Miers, if the new nominee is filibustered, it will most likely be respected. Bull. If Bush nominates someone who the Right wing clearly likes, they will push the nuclear option 100% if the Democrats manage to pull together a filibuster.
  7. The Score is saying that somewhere in the neighborhood of 5000 people are there.
  8. QUOTE(wherehaveyougoneharold @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:48 PM) I haven't even received my ALCS hat that I ordered 10 minutes after we won. I got 3rd day shipping and everything. The only reason I got my AL Champs shirt is that I had my mom run to J.C. Pennys, buy me one, and ship it. It took me nearly 3 weeks to get my AL Central champs shirt. I'm wearing that one today (the AL Champs one was worn last night, and the Jersey is washed & ready for tomorrow). I'm gonna wait a few days before I place my order, since MLB.com won't get things to me any faster if I order soon anyway.
  9. According to the Score, the parade starts at 10 tomorrow, I believe.
  10. QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:44 PM) I remember all the local stations used to carry the Bulls rallies. I would imagine it would be no different with the Sox. I don't get the local version of WGN, I get the superstation version. Sometimes they put different programming on each version. It's rare, but some local stuff doesn't get broadcast out.
  11. QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:41 PM) I've also seen the comments comparing the fans reactions in both situations. Thing is, IMO, I can't blame the Houston fans for not getting in the way. Uribe is a big guy, and if I had him running full steam at me, on a mission, I'm moving WAY out of the way!!! On the replays, it looked like Uribe literally had his glove up higher than any of the fans around him. He was literally in good fielding position.
  12. Can anyone tell me if WGN Superstation will be carrying the parade/rally? (Anyone outside of Chicago know if the superstation broadcast the Bulls rallies?)
  13. QUOTE(bmags @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:37 PM) i know its bobby...i just don't know why idaho was singled out LOL Because his was the first one that popped into my head, and I wasn't going to go and look up the 10-15 guys that I don't have a clue where they came from.
  14. QUOTE(bmags @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:27 PM) i'm not sure what idaho has to do with it but the diversity of this team WAS special, i wouldn't want my team looking like the astros... Bobby.
  15. According to the Score they're landing in 1/2 hour or so.
  16. QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:14 PM) point taken. what i said is just my opinion. also, im not saying that KW shouldnt get any credit- the man's a genius. i just get annoyed some time when people throw out a race card when i dont even think it matters at all. While it doesn't really matter to me at all (I will now officially worship the ground KW and Ozzie walk on), I think it's actually important to realize that it does matter to a lot of people. Think about this...the entire nation of Cuba was huddled around illegal radios and televisions with antennae pointed towards Miami for game 1 because of our pitcher. The entire nation of Venezuela today is dreaming of playing for the Chicago White Sox. For years, Baseball has been missing out on African Americans who, if they wound up playing baseball, could probalby have turned out to be some of the best players in history. Instead, basketball has been the sport of choice for that community. Think about what we've accomplished. We really did win a world series. We did so with an African American GM, a Latino Manager, a Japanese 2nd baseman, a closer from the middle of Idaho, and just about everything inbetween. I think that practically every part of the world who cares about baseball can find that they have something to root for on this team. I think that's just remarkable.
  17. QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:17 PM) ....I got two crumpled pieces of paper thrown at me.... And I'm absolutely sure it was worth it.
  18. QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 12:03 PM) Profit and Loss, Balta. Profit and Loss statements are usually released each (calendar) quarter. Gotcha, just hadn't heard that abbreviation.
  19. I'm not sure which would be worse for the country...a strident, far-far-right wing pleasing conservative sitting on the court or an unprepared idiot sitting on the court. I probably won't know how to react to this until the next nominee is named...maybe not until we see if they're confirmed or nto.
  20. Hydrogen also has a problem in that it can be very much a greenhouse gas. Water is actually quite the greenhouse gas, but its concentration in recent times has remained roughly a function of the global temperature. If we were to use hydrogen, and even a few percent were to leak out, it would rise high up into the atmosphere where energy is actually radiated out of hte atmosphere. At this point, it would react with oxygen (helped out by solar energy causing the reaction). Then, you could potentially dramatically increase the amount of water in these key upper atmosphere layers, and thereby exacerbate the problem of global warming due to CO2.
