  1. they all can't be winners
  2. I am watching Vacancy
  3. Oh, no, MST3K is definitely the awesome one. We need a caption on that too though. What!?, I thought we mocked "The Thing that Couldn't Die" already
  4. Ned Yost paralyzed from the neck up.
  5. LINK EDIT: Fixed link, although it's already been posted - b19
  6. National Tour Snows in October seems presumptuous.
  7. No -- I was channeling Nelson Dewey when I was writing in this thread
  8. UPDATE -- The kids went 2-1 in a tournament this weekend including handing out their first beatdown -- in which every kid scored. The goggles, forward at the elbow, high-screens, etc. all helped... Thanks to all!
  9. i drank tonight for the first time in about 4 years and all i want to do is help Joey with his offensen . i feel like were a band of brothers i love all tyou guysa. Awww..
  10. Nickelback irritates me more than 14 year old kids from rural Wisconsin acting like they are in the Lodi chapter of the Bloods.
  11. That's the Mississippi river in #10, by the home I used to live in, that is a historical site.
  12. Muir is a good guess their paths could have certainly crossed early in Muir's life
  13. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/98d352699fad7360fa06e85218eb4a134d4d698.jpg I used to live here
  14. Benjamin Breckinridge (B.B.) Warfield? Heh -- I have worked on his books. -- No, not Warfield.
  15. http://www.ageslibrary.com/temp/I%20died%20in%20poverty%21.jpg Sorry for the small picture -- should be easy for someone here.
  16. "I'd do it again if I had to. I'll do anything for my players. Anything." Yost said the above -- This is my problem with Yost. I am all for "doing anything for the players" as long as it doesn't come in front of winning ballgames.
  17. Bill James readily admits that he hasn't kept up with the latest sabermetric studies, so it's odd that he's always offering his opinion on the matter. His opinion is still his opinion -- It's probably like John Madden commenting on what it's like coaching the athletes of today.

  19. I don't think I would want to trade Bush for a Cameron stand-in and Prince backup.
  20. I didn't realize this -- but the NIU shooting was the 4th school shooting this week.
  21. So I don't know if that unbridled optimism was directed at me or not, No -- not at you specifically. I do want to clear that up. I was only saying I don't relate well to the overly optimistic, and I don't expect myself or them to change. It' as though you're suggesting that because there are some overly optimistic posters, that you somehow NEED those negative posters. Nope. What I am saying is that we are all hard-wired differently. Some people are pessimistic some are optimistic -- we don't NEED either pessimistic or optimistic posters, we HAVE them by default with our large community -- we shouldn't be asking people to be different as long as they are civil, and JB12 while you may not ever agree with him, almost always brings a solid well-thought out point of view to the community here. And finally, I guess I have to disagree with you. I don't see what was interesting about his observation, or noteworthy about it. I don't know what's interesting about a manager saying what probably 29 other manager in the game would say in the same situation, or what's noteworthy about him saying that Sheets has run into some back luck. Ned Yost has a history of making head-scratching comments that you will never hear from the other managers. For example, "I put Greg Aquino in the game because he fields his position better". "Pattern of bad luck" is a similar type of statement. My point was and is the need to quickly pounce on anything that anyone in the Brewers FO says. Anything that comes out of DM's or NY's mouth gets over analyzed here regardless of the subject matter -- that is the nature of this board. If Doug Melvin said "I am really impressed with Gabe Kapler" you can bet there will be a 30 page thread here worrying about Mike Cameron getting cut in ST. If Ned Yost said "I like Turkey sandwiches" we'd have a 30 page thread wondering what happened to cheese sandwiches -- it's the way we roll here.
  22. I wonder if that cougar looks at those kids the same way we look at chicken nuggets.
