  1. There you go encouraging me again.
  2. I missed Example when he went on hiatus from TalkSox, and i am glad that he has come back and stayed.
  3. Don't go geting all pissy. Truth be told, I don't really disagree with you on this issue, but the law has evolved to an absurd state today. I work closely with employment lawyers, so I am very familiar with the state of the law. Unfortunately, it has evolved to its absurd state as the result of the efforts of liberal do-gooders. I would never call you a racist or bigot of any sort. I just couldn't resist pointing out that what you were suggesting could be actionable under the law, and in today's absurd legal system, good people like you can find themselves in court on the other side of such accusations. I enjoyed the back and forth, and I just wanted to have you help me illuminate the absurdity of the state of employment law. I sincerely apologize if I upset you. I wanted to ruffle your feathers a little and get a reaction, but I was trying to be clear that I was not impugning your character. Peace brother.
  4. You called me self-righteous and you called me bigoted. Later you said I never called you a bigot. An isolated act of racial insensitivity or bigotry doesn't make someone a bigot or racist, and I very clearly stated that I thought you certainly were not a racist. I did call you "self-righteous" and for that I apologize. I also called you a "do-gooder", but I don't think that is a bad thing. The world could use a few more do-gooders. I also called you a "liberal", but I noticed that you were not offended by that. I guess being a liberal is back in vogue.
  5. The Orioles hold on for the win. The Rangers let a huge opportunity get away. That may be it for them.
  6. Yankee fans are pulling for the Rangers big time, because they view them as post-season patsies. The Red Sox worry them.
  7. Is it that POS Chris Ray that the yankees kill every time he pitches against them?
  8. They used to bunt on Jim Abbott and he had one hand, but it didn't work because he was able to field better than pitchers with two hands. Pitchers with injuries that would prevent them from fielding usually prevent them from being able pitch. Wakefield can pitch with a bad leg, but few others.
  9. Wow, Kotsay can also play first base. Why did we need Kotchman?
  10. Dice K gave up two HRs yesterday in AAA. It doesn't sound like he is going to be much help.
  11. Baltimore stil leading Texas 5-4 in the bottom of the 6th.
  12. How is a limping cornerback any different than a limping pitcher?
  13. Bunting is part of the game. A pitcher has to field his position. Runners steal on catchers that can't throw. They steal at will on Wakefield too. Why is bunting on a lame pitcher bush league, but running on him at will is not? Please explain.
  14. I know some Yankee fans that are still upset that he didn't bunt on Schilling. Hey, I'm glad he didn't.
  15. This is professional sports. You exploit your opponents weaknesses. If you don't, you'll finfd yourself out of a job sooner than later. Cy Young retired, not because he could no longer pitch, but because he could no longer field bunts. They bunted on Cy Young. Why not bunt on Wakefield?
  16. Kotsay sucks. Kotchman has helped us much more than he could have.
  17. More useless information from Ken Rosenthal. He adds nothing.
  18. I'm a little disappointed in Ozzie Guillen. He plays the part of the Maverick who defies convention, but who is fiercely competitive. I think he is a pussy. If Bill Martin was sitting in the White Sox dugout, he would have had the first 3, 4 or 5 batters bunt and make Wakefield make plays until they had to carry him off the field in a stretcher. Floyd is pitching a great game, but he could still get the L, because his manager didn't want to go for the throat.
  19. Why does it seem like we are always getting a great game pitched against us on the Fox Game of the Week?
