I think there is a song by Hall and Oates about this, isn't there? It goes something like:
Oh, oh, here she comes Watch out boy, she'll chew you up Oh, oh, here she comes She's a man hater
What is the antonym for misogynist, anyway? Feminist?
I guess anyone who would support false accusations of groping would also be in favor of affirmative action. "Yeah, we need these false accusations to make up for all the times when the gropers got away with it."
So, if I keep my hands up in the air, but, despite thinking of Margaret Thatcher taking a shower, am unable to control what goes on down below, and the train sways and I bruise some poor virgin, am I guilty of groping?

that is good for longoria - he deserves it ~ thanks for getting the info ~ i was too lazy to spend 17 seconds looking for it
i bet arod could throw fewer walks than mr. gyro ball; after 44 abs matsuzaka would have 3 hits imo
arod probably plays with too much urgency in the post season ~ he needs to loosen up like the rays; maybe if he took a lower salary he could relax as expectations would be much lower
After getting this far, I wouldn't harp on any of these players. Iwamura was a great spark plug for the rays all season. Longoria is going to be a big star for a long time. Balfour will bounce back.

I nominate this one for best performance in this year's riot.
Isn't it slightly incongruous that the Japanese have metal doors over their windows, but American shop owners don't bother?
I'm not even going to bother to check, but I do recall that the Rays team received $43 million for the season. Longoria was a rookie, right, so he probably didn't get more than $390,000. You call that "the big bucks"?
You don't expect a star to hit 1-17? Babe Ruth did so in 1922 (they threw him curveballs in the dirt only). Barry Bonds was .196 in the post season until he redeemed himself in 2002 going 8-17 with four homers and 13 walks. Hornsby, Williams, Musial, and A-Rod have all sucked in the Series. I expect their will be more flops and disappointments. If Longoria gets another chance he may or may not do great. Doesn't mean he didn't earn his salary. They would not have gotten as far as they did without him.

The best thing the government could do is to shrink itself so as to be less of a burden to the taxpayers. Instead, they are going to meddle again and prolong the agony. My doctor student says now is a good time to buy the U.S. dollar. I begged him not to because he would no longer be able to afford my lessons. The dollar is going to collapse within a year thanks to the govt. intervention.

I never said the conditions were not good. I can accept that the Phillies played a little better. What makes you think that I can't? I couldn't give a rip who won as the Twins were knocked out a day after the regular season ended. Do you enjoy putting words in people's mouths?
Dear Hotbox, here's a report on the ongoing riot:
http://cbs3.com/topstories/Philadelphia.Phillies.Tampa.2.852091.html
Windows were smashed at a bank and luggage store in the downtown shopping district. At least two cars were overturned, the windows of a TV van were smashed, dozens of huge streetside planters were flipped over and some bus shelters were damaged or destroyed.

Now for the tear gas riots.
Peak performance can only be achieved by being loose. Maybe the Phillies won despite playing with unnecessary urgency.

The strong yen exacerbates the downturn in the economy because it makes Japanese exports more expensive which hurts sales for Japanese companies.
The strong yen is good only for travelers going overseas.

Better than "Larry Sanders"? I doubt it. That's on Youtube now, btw.

I meant the 1977 version of This Week in Baseball
I hate the 80s version. Sounds like music for pilgrims floating over to America.

This thread is a perfect example of the "piling on" nature of internet posting. Sure, I think they are a couple of scags, but I've got the decency to keep it to myself.

Are you serious? I was driving down a road and these two bicyclists came flying through a stop sign. It was impossible to have seen them coming as there were buildings on every corner. I slammed on the breaks and was able to stop in time, but are you saying that if I had struck them, I would be 100% responsible?

I'd have to agree with the Japanese guy - the pitcher was not likely to be tired after throwing, what, 20 pitches? He was a reliever, right? Unless, he had pitched the night before...
