I have met her and she's a really sweet girl. I have it on good authority that there is another girl on the team and they'll be rooming together.
Good luck Eri.

Oh and by the way flav, I'm killing myself laughing that you actually went to wikipedia, arguably the world's most unreliable source of information and counted the number of players who qualified for stats. That is too funny!! You're a real purist huh??

flavorflav read my posts carefully. Where did I say anything otherwise to what you posted about what constitutes an active roster? I was ridiculing what hotbox called an active roster. I told him to go and look up what an active roster actually was. Again, if you read carefully, the 39 players I mentioned was to contradict the "50 to 60 players" that hotbox played in the majors for the Yankees in the 2009 season. He was even claiming Kei Igawa played this year for the Yanks which wasn't the case.
I've played and watched baseball for over 30 years so you can get off your high horse bud. You're good at stating the obvious, the same obvious points I told hotbox to look up but you're pretty careless when it comes to reading. If you can find any quotes which justifies your rant against me. Please feel free to have another go. I think you'll find you were a bit too quick to post without bothering to read what I posted.

Now this is my point about you clearly being a newcomer to baseball. If you read my post AND did some research, you will see that only 39 players played in the bigs in TOTAL for the Yankees organization in 2009. What do you mean 39 players on an the active roster? Do your homework and check how many players make up an "active roster"! Check what an "active roster" is while you're at it.
Oh and get over your love-fest for Kei Igawa, he didn't even play in the majors in 2009. hotbox, wait until you know something about the game before posting.
Ahhh, hotbox08, my criticism is aimed at your comments

What a bizzare argument. Do you think that minor leaguers usually poll higher than major leaguers in the popularity stakes? By having to google and state the obvious, eg minor league afflilates, the number of games in a season etc it seems to me you are a newcomer to the game. BTW Nady was traded to the Yankees and didn't come up through the farm system. He might have played some games there but he was not a product of the Yankees farm system as he was traded from the Pirates last year.
Oh and 39 players played for Yankees last year not the 50 to 60 you quoted. Consider yourself schooled. Hope you enjoyed your first year of watching baseball. Any other questions? I'll be happy to help.

Sorry, in no way is a public message board a credible poll.

Sorry, you need to state the source. I simply don't believe that.

Is this going to be the "last year" like they say every year?

Nice post Cleo. You just saved me time by echoing my thoughts. What I find ironic is that the same people who would find the animals that the fur comes from, "Gyyaaaaa Kawaii" are the ones who are walking around draped in their hides.
Viewing video of the killing and skinning would surely change a few minds.

Oh, please! You can have a functional and loving family without subjecting your kids to "God" and other forms of antiquated mythology.

The lot of them? That's a big call. The entire team? You named some players "for starters." So who else? Do you have your sources?
I'm not a Yankees fan but if you think just these two guys were using and no other players on other teams, I've got a bridge to sell you.
BTW you can simplify your language and come across more coherently by just saying you want the Yankees to lose once.

A rubbish role-model that rightly shouldnt be let anywhere near his children.
johnshiomi, thanks for your story. You sound like a good Dad and I certainly hope you continue to have a relationship with your daughter despite the distance between you guys.

Yep and if you watched the replays of that, it was Runge who bumped into Manuel and initiated the contact. It's all about Runge when he's in the game. The best umpires are the ones you never notice.

Actually at Summersonic in Osaka over the last few years I was very surprised and fortunate to see and meet a few of the performing foreign artists as they drifted through the crowd. Kasabian was one band who were really "drifting" if you know what I mean ;-) Friendly dudes all the same. Met quite an incoherent ex-Suede member too which was pretty funny.
I have been to large summer festivals in Europe and Nth America and never seen a band walking through the crowd so I would have to disagree with the author on this point.
Ahhh, I doubt it.

Her rack is starting to sag which is indicative of her age. She could have worn something more flattering as she's not a total write-off at 41.

I've met a few Aussie girls who would consider themselves beer queens but unfortunately they might not fare too well in the lady-like drinking section of the event. That is unless being called Shazza, taking pride in how fast you can down a beer, belch and say something like, "Carn, get it into ya mate!" scores points with the judges.

Thats what I was thinking. Considering it hangs out with homeless people, that's one well-fed pussy.

That is not "paraphrasing". He actually never said anything remotely like it. It was said by someone who believed he WOULD say something like that according to his beliefs.
So Triumvere, the "original quote" is not from Voltaire or even the afore mentioned "paraphrased version." A bit of research will point you in the right direction. It's not difficult.

One of the great urban myths. He didn't say that.
Toben is a completely deluded lunatic but you are right, it is a sad day when people are jailed for voicing an opinion.
