  1. In no particular order Swordfish Tuna Red Snapper Walleye/Perch Salmon Blue Marlin Mahi Mahi Haddock Cod smelt
  2. I don't like this for the Twins. When you trade one of the game's best players, you need to get a big time prospect in return, at the very least someone in the top 20.
  3. I get exposed to more germs than anyone else, plus I sometimes come home with vomit or feces on my clothes.
  4. To answer the original question, none. Yeah right Toby, I know you can't resist an organic, shade grown, fair trade, cageless, wheat grass fed, antiobiotic-free, free range Tofurkey. It's the beef jerkey of hipsters. Given the rule that all varieties of fish count as a single animal, it's an easy choice for this Norske: fish.
  5. Could be your cable box, happened to me a couple of weeks ago. The cable connection was still active, so I got internet, but no cable TV. They ended up having to come over and replace my cable box.
  6. just as long as you don't trade doug davis and dana eveland for the guy, then i guess it is. Well played Sir.
  7. Grab the nearest girl and lick her cheek from chin to eyebrow. That'd make for an interesting kiss cam.
  8. Caught the last two games of the Brewers series last year. Saw Braun's first MLB home run, that was pretty cool. Sat in the upper deck behind the plate for one and in the lower deck in right field for the other. I was there at that time, too, and it was awesome. Maybe it's the significance I attach to seeing Braun's first homer, but I really loved that ballpark and the surrounding area. I also sat in the upper deck behind home, and the view of the city was very nice.
  9. Ramirez for me as well. Yep, he has defensive problems, but he's an absolute monster at the plate. Maybe you end up moving him to 2B or 3B, or even the OF, but the guy put up a .948 OPS at age 23 and is very athletic - you'll figure out a way to fit him in your everyday lineup.
  10. In terms of the reaction of fans, it's a huge series. If the Brewers open up with a sweep, it could really get the support behind this team early. The team was hot early on last year, and it really helped to get casual fans excited about the team. As far as the effects on the team's performance and end of the year standings, it won't be any more important than any other series against a team we're fighting for a playoff berth.
  11. Pizza delivery. I did it all the way through college and had a nice flexible schedule while making $12 an hour. Of course, gas was also like $1.70 back then.
  12. Why do they call it a rebate when some potential recipients don't pay any income tax? Sounds better. It's framed as "we have plenty, here's some back", rather than "we're cutting taxes at a time when we have budget problems".
  13. Don't feel bad, Russ, Mass will pass you on his current username by the first pitch of the minor league season.
  14. I don't know how you could "accidentally" OD on anything either besides forgetting you took some and then some more but even then, you would most likely need to be taking quite a bit of medication. There are a couple of ways overdoses can be "accidental", pharmacology isn't my field, so these will only be the simple ones. 1. Drug interaction or synergistic effects. Some drugs basically fuel eachother's fire, so to speak and the total effect is greater than the sum of it's parts. For example, you can take a therapeutic dose of drugs A and B and die from it, even though you took a safe dose of each one. This is often illustrated with alcohol and pills. A user can take an amount that would be within a safe range, and drink an amount that would not be toxic, but they die because of the combined effect, which is toxic. 2. Opponent processes. The environment in which drugs are taken comes to elicit a response which essentially moves in the opposite direction of the effect of the drug. So if you took a strong sedative in your bedroom, that room and the range of stimuli present would elicit an excitatory response over time. Go take the same pills in a novel environment, which does not elicit this response, and the effect of the drugs will be stronger. It's often discussed that heroin addicts use a familiar amount in hotel rooms and then die, while that dose was administered countless times at home. Ever feel drunker than you should be when you drink in a strange situation, like the middle of the afternoon with new friends? This is probably why.
  15. Why do I keep thinking "Jeffrey Hammonds" in my head when I hear the name "Mike Cameron". Is this unreasonable? The situation seems to be mirror images. Center Fielder, Big Contract. Big disappointment. It's not a very fair comparison. Cameron is paid less than Hammonds was back then, and is signed for one year rather than three. Plus, he has a long history of playing more than not, and being better than average while not benefiting from Coors field.
  16. I'll go with Gagne being the person the general public is most disappointed in. I think the money he got and his past dominance will help turn fans against him if he struggles a lot, and he doesn't have a ton of recent success to make me feel comfortable that he'll do well. It could also be Cameron, who's going to miss 25 games and is getting up there in age. Those two factors could create a lot of rust that digs him in a sizeable hole after he returns.
  17. I will always hate Jarret Bush. He's somehow become my scapegoat for every Packers problem. Watching him try to pick up that fumble instead of dive and tuck it in just drove me to fits.
  18. Strep throat sucks, really bad.
  19. I'm with ya on the excessive nudity in the locker room thing. Yep, it's fine to get naked in a locker room, that's what it's there for, but I just don't see why it's so hard to put boxers on while you dry your hair and whatnot following your shower. Also, I hate when people wear too much cologne of perfume at the gym. Once I was on an elliptical and this girl came up and used the one next to me and I felt like I was huffing paint thinner - I had to move to another machine. Also, take off your stupid bluetooth - do you really need to wear that thing while you work out? Maybe 1:100 guys who wears a blutooth at all times is actually important enough to need to do so. Finally, when you're a roider, you shouldn't work out with roider friends - it just makes your steroid use too obvious. There's almost zero chance of two guys who happen to be friends both being the genetic freaks of nature that can add muscle like that naturally.
  20. When people buy loaves of bread, does anyone eat the end pieces? I don't think I've ever seen anyone do it, they might as well take them out before they're sold. I don't actually eat those pieces, but if I have cookies I'll throw those ends in the cookie jar - keeps 'em soft.
  21. cough, check out my sig, cough. WOW, surprised you only got $350, as that's only a $40 premium.
  22. The fact that his dad was great doesn't make him great. Name 5 above average son's of former players. Bonds Prince Griffey Jr. Moises Alou Roberto Alomar Robinson Cano Robb Nen Cal Ripken Jason Kendall Nick Swisher
  23. What if it grows back and has to be removed again? What if it grows into a woman and disproves the theory of evolution?
  24. Yep, Blalock did have a rib removed last season.
  25. I will forever be scarred by the time I spent working in mall retail. It was the winter of 96-97, and I will never forget the word's to "You Were Meant for Me", "Kiss Me", "Love Fool" and "Wannabe".
