You know who else's pitching game is based around a solid fastball and a really good changeup? Johan Santana.

I'm far from a prude, but I go with the same general school of thought that I don't want to see straight couples making out in public either, so as long as they're being consistent, I'm ok. I have no problem with a peck, either man-man or woman-woman. None of that bothers me, I just get annoyed at lovey-dovey couples.

QUOTE (wilmot825 @ May 31, 2008 -> 11:02 PM) Well Richar is useless since Alexi has come around and Chris Getz is damn good. I said though, maybe its not good to trade old for older. WTF

QUOTE (bmags @ May 31, 2008 -> 10:03 PM) Yeah but that's if you were talking with educated voters, but most are stupid. Agreed

Why would you want Crede to be the one to play 1B and Fields at 3rd? I know Crede has an (uncharacteristically, almost career high after 2 months) ugodly amount of errors this year, but Fields has a not-so-hot 7 himself.

I wish he didn't do that. It adds validity to the BS argument that the church spewed hate for 20 years and it's obvious he's caving in to pressure. Him staying in the church would allow him to say "you guys' characterization of my church is wrong." Now he loses that and comes out looking like a pussy.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 31, 2008 -> 07:20 PM) if you say so. can I borrow your Tiger Beat with Brian on the cover? I need something to cry into. 'scuse me? Nothing constructive to say, I guess it's off to ignore for you for a while

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 31, 2008 -> 07:17 PM) how you can compare those two is beyond me. He wasn't comparing the two, he made a point that you can't/won't respond to and you got owned.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 31, 2008 -> 06:14 PM) oh way less than classless. I respect the right to protest and have yourself heard. BUT, I do NOT respect your right to interrupt meetings. They got heard. Ickes and his fellow liars made their case, his argument was like a screen though. Transparent and didn't hold water. Hence the "no" votes.

QUOTE (KevinM @ May 31, 2008 -> 02:03 PM) I mean in terms of value to the team. I know Ramirez is hot, but having watched both he and Uribe, I think their offensive and defensive games (in sum) are equal to one another. I really have no idea what you're basing this statement on. Stats? Alexei doesn't even have 100 ABs in the majors yet.

God did the Hillary supporters there look completely classless.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 31, 2008 -> 11:17 AM) Actually, she lost Texas, it later turned out. Good call... he picked up more delegates, that's all that really mattered in the big picture.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 31, 2008 -> 12:56 PM) Michigan and Florida really should have thought of that before breaking the rules. Listening to the Michigan delegation speak I find out it wasn't as simple as I thought, Carl Levin basically had a 5 minute section of his presentation devoted to "f*** New Hampshire"

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 31, 2008 -> 12:41 PM) I love how EVERY time Ickies tries to push Clinton propganda on the people representing the states they come back with a witty remark and put him in his place. It's AWESOME! lol, I'm starting to like Carl Levin. Basically a diplomatic way of saying STFU. The chairman can't shut Ickes up though.

QUOTE (Texsox @ May 31, 2008 -> 11:56 AM) There is no "perfect" or for that matter "good" solution that is 100% fair to everyone. The most important consideration, IMHO is to the individual voter in those states. Yeah, that seems to be what the Michigan delegation is talking about. They're not trying to favor each candidate and they know that the results of the primary are messed up. Harold Ickes is such an asshole, you can tell whenever he talks the only thing he's concerned with is the fact that Hillary's not going to get as many delegates out of it as he wants. Well... Obama had to make a concession to Florida in the interest of fairness. Why can't they?

QUOTE (KevinM @ May 31, 2008 -> 09:51 AM) Ramirez and Uribe are essentially the same player, so I'm not really concerned who gets more playing time. What? Is this a serious post?

lol, right when I started to get worried Bartlett serves up a nice first pitch out, that's what i immediately see when I pull up Gameday.

lol @ that inning

QUOTE (Wanne @ May 30, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) Money says K or DP. Nobody wanted to take the bet, you'd have had to lower his standards some.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ May 30, 2008 -> 09:06 PM) I got up off the couch and signed on juist to say that. Why the f*** not? What are we gonna miss with Paulie right now?? I wish Paulie would hit another one of those bombs that threaten the structural integrity of the stadium the way he did last night again.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ May 30, 2008 -> 08:58 PM) I like how Hawk is already re-written history on Jose's 2007 season. What is he saying? That Jose didn't suck?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 30, 2008 -> 07:34 PM) Line drive That's still technically a fly ball a lot of the time.

It's funny how Gameday says "Player X homers (#) on a fly ball to xxxx field." lol, is there another way to homer?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 30, 2008 -> 09:58 AM) Its funny, it looks to me like their recent tactic has been to play both sides of that fence. They run articles saying its over, and they start to focus on Obama v McCain... but at the same time, their pundits will talk about how Puerto Rico is Clinton's last chance. She still has a chance? IMO her last chance was really Texas and Ohio but the Hillary camp spun that into a major victory and the media ran with that. Granted, she DID win both states and snapped Obama's winning streak, but those were both supposed to be blowouts for her only a couple weeks before, and she lost a lot of ground to Obama in a short amount of time and made the delegate math really difficult for her to overcome. After that everything else was just a formality.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ May 30, 2008 -> 08:00 AM) I think most of the people out in the St Pete area are transplants. Maybe they are fans of other teams? Good point... probably a lot of Yankees fans. But then again they're everywhere.
