Orlando Rays

Umaga was probably pissed because the minimum wage increase bill Obama and Clinton signed off on kept the exemption for American Samoa. So workplaces on the island, like the StarKist cannery owned by Del Monte (based in Nancy Pelosi's district) still don't pay sh!t. :mischief

I was just wondering if any of you have been to Dunedin(just outside of Clearwater)? If so, what are your opinions of the city? My family and I are going on vacation there in about a month to see if we want to move there but we want to get a general idea of how it is before we check it out. Basically a suburb of St. Petersburg. But it's a bit too close to Clearwater for my comfort. :| It also doesn't have its own beach. You have to go across to Honeymoon Island State Recreation Area.

If you're going to waste your money on a private institution, go for Rollins.

TV: No TV :banghead I can't help myself. I love Orlando. :mischief

No trip to Pennsylvania is complete without Yuengling. Unfortunately I'm at work and they block alcohol websites. :mischief Not to mention PNC Park is one bitchin' ballpark.

How do we know Ron Paul's never touched the stuff? :mischief

Semper fi. Rickroll those Taliban sumbitches. :mischief

Jason Bartlett, every time he plays. :hanged

This image is of a couple nuns at Pope Benedict XVI's mass at Nationals Park.

Mike Adamle was terrible. Seriously, what's happened since the original American Gladiators?

April 4, 2008 DEAR ABBY: I have a very strict father. I respect what he has to say, but I don't like the fact that he won't let me have a boyfriend. He thinks all dudez are alike -- well, most dudez at least. I need that li'l bit of advice, pleeeezzz. Love always, BABI IN MILFORD, CONN. DEAR BABI: Dadz can be that way sometimez. Perhaps yours is trying to prevent you from making an "S" of yourself.

Come with me if you want to live? :mis2

UCF Fight Song. I also have "Take Me Out" on my phone.

Jorge Posada, the man with no chin. Also, Snitsky is hardly an athlete, so I don't think he counts. :mischief

That looks kind've like Al Lang Field. Except the stadium cover doesn't go all the way around, and it has bleachers instead of berms. (EDIT: Looking back at the old thread... that answers miami15's question after all these years. :mischief )

The 2007 US Census Bureau population estimates, released today, have some shocking news: Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach metro area (Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties): 2007: 5,413,212 2006: 5,415,440 Change:-2,228 Miami-Dade: 2007: 2,387,170 2006: 2,376,343 Change: +10,827 Palm Beach: 2007: 1,266,451 2006: 1,266,352 Change: +99 Broward: 2007: 1,759,591 2006: 1,772,745 Change: -13,154 Source: http://www.census.gov/population/www/estim...007-annual.html (BTW: I did the math in my head. :mischief )

Be well, John Spartan. Just make sure you learn how the three seashells work. :mischief

Obama was one of the people calling for the firing of Don Imus (ABC, April 11, 2007), saying that he himself would not permit anybody on his campaign that talked about people of any creed in the way Imus referenced the Baylor women's basketball team. "I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus, but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. He didn't just cross the line, he fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America." Rev. Wright is far worse than Don Imus, and totally unapologetic. Maybe Obama only meant if a white person made such a comment...

At least for Yankee Stadium there's only one jurisdiction to deal with: NYPD.

Three proposals have been posted for the redevelopment of Tropicana Field. This, of course, is vital to the plans to build the new Rays Ballpark, as this is paying for about 70% the cost of the new stadium.

mmmk....Rodriguez is not the one doing the most damage based on that picture...Ryan has Ventura in a headlock and is about to rock him with a right to the jaw. Ivan is just jumping on Ventura's back like a little kid. I said the little guy was "trying" to break it up. :mischief

Thank you, mountainfish, for making this your sig pic. :thumbup Pappy taking Robin Ventura to the wood shed. Nolan Ryan sure didn't fight like he was old enough to be Ventura's pappy. :mischief And it's funny that a short Hispanic kid named Ivan Rodriguez tried to break up a 6'2" Texan and a 6'1" California boy. :whistle

Well, guys. Just wanted to let you know that I'm going to try and severely cut back on my beer drinking. After doing some math, I've found I spend somewhere around $3,000 a year in beer. Plus, drinking 6 to 8 beers a night on average can't be that good for my liver. Gonna quit smoking too. I figure I spend over $1,000 a year in cigarettes (which is better than when I used spend $2,000 to $3,000). I figure if I can do this, I can make some huge financial improvements in my life as well as my health. 6-8 beers a night? Jesus! You're going to end up like the one transplant recipient on the ESPN.com E-Ticket "Ray of Hope".

Blackened Master of Puppets Reign in Blood What!? I f*** to metal! He said lovemaking, not f***ing. :mischief

Girls from Louisiana suck.
