They just wasted $500,000 for 2004.

No people don't like you because you advocate murder and terrorism, like the Nazis, and then call it for the preservation of your race, like the nazis, and bulldoze innocent peoples houses during the middle of the night, like the nazis, and build walls, like the nazis...

Do you think cigarettes would have been legal if they had known the health ramifications that long ago? Why should the government subsidize people who want to kill themselves, which is exactly what people who drink too much, and addicted to heavy drugs are doing. Even Marijuana has been proven to be a much higher cancer causing agent than cigarettes, by a factor of about 20-1, in some studies. Who pays for these peoples hospital bills when they can't work anymore? That's right you and I do.

And that is the same logic used by the cigarette companies for 30 years swearing that their product didn't cause cancer.

Don't know yet. I think we are leaving town at about 2:30 to set sail for the Hyatt. I am going to see if I can bribe one of my buddies with our extra passes to get into line earlier for us. I haven't heard any definate meet up plans, but something will develop.

This deal is as good as done

I don't know if anyone is interested, but with all of the BS rumors about what the Sox are doing, and the ARod trade and everything else. Why don't we have a contest for who can create the most believable trade rumor? Sound fun?

I know you don't give them for free, but if you look at how successful our alcohol laws have been in general (think about DUI deaths, medical costs, auto insurance costs, families destroyed etc) do you really think the federal government could handle managing a much more destructive substance than alcohol?

I think it was his 300th career win overall right? He hasn't been at UK long enough to win 300 games there has he????

And do you want to pay the medical and other associated bills of these guys because they have no jobs because they are too busy robbing people to pay for their coke habits? I don't. Marijuana I can understand the arguements. Not sure that I agree, but I understand. The hardcore drugs, no way.

Of course, they have Ft Wayne's own Kevin Weekes in goal

Is that Ron Rivera that used to play for the Bears? Or is it someone else.

Yeah that was the year of the OSU backcourt. I always remembered that year because of SMS, because I knew Alford from where I went to college. A few years before that he led our college to the D3 basketball national championship game, which incidently we lost to Bo Ryan's Wisconson Whitewater team. It was the only time in NCAA history that two undefeated teams met for a basketball championship.

1999 and lost to Duke. that is what I thought I couldn't remember the year anymore. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketbal...ts/classic.html

They did make it to the sweet 16 one year.

Am I the only one who sees a lawsuit when someone asks a cute chick if she wants to make a call on his bone phone?

That deal sounds almost too good to be true. Burrells numbers would explode at hitter friendly Comiskey, plus getting into the AL would help him as well. It would also give us some room to make a late run at a FA if we wanted, if I am calculating correctly.

hmm I work right accross the street from there... But then again I am surfing the internet on the 10th floor, so I would have no idea what is going on.

The Tribune always endorses conservative canditiates all things being equal. They always are much more conservative in their columns than the ST. The ST panders to the Chicago democratic machine so much it is discusting.

So one issue makes a paper conserv or lib? Read deeper.

The antiwall stuff is all you hear on the news and in the papers. I'd be curious how Israel is justifying it statistically.

Are you kidding me? You might be the first person I have ever heard who ever called the Trib "Ultra-Lib". Have you read the Sun Times before? Heck read any of the NYC papers. That's liberal.

There have been minor leaguers at Soxfest every year that I have went. I would try calling the front office and asking them about specific players 312-674-1000. I used to email, but no one ever responds to emails there.

And if you touched anymore than that, please, don't tell us

This is honest advice right now. Find a nationally respected newspaper and read it everyday. Part of the problem with the US's general apathy in the 18-24 crowd is that they have no idea what is going on in the world around them. You live in NY, read the NY Times national and world sections (I have no idea how the paper breaks it sections down, so it could be all together) from beginning to end. It might be boring and dry, but I really believe if the younger generation had any idea what goes on in the world, they would make themselves more a part of the political process. I have read the Tribune daily for most of my life now, and I really think the habit of doing it makes me much more informed than the average 30 year old.
