    floplag got a reaction from WallyWorld in Is there any team that needs Tanaka...   
    he will be a Yankee, or a Dodger... the rest is moot.
    lets look elsewhere as far as im concered as this guy is no Darvish and wont be worth the cost
    he doesnt have Darvish stuff.. he will not tanslate as well.
    one thing i saw prjected him at a 3+ ERA assuming he translates in the same way Darvish did... which isnt bad, but also inst worth 100+ Million at least not to me.
    basically he would be about the same as Garza or Kuroda... would you pay 100 mil for either of those guys?
    sure he might do better, but thats a huge gamble

    floplag got a reaction from Agalloch in UPDATE: The Colorado Rockies & Angels Trade Talks Cool - Rockies Pursue Justin Morneau   
    Im sorry but if we deal Trumbo for prospects, i for one am gonna be pissed.
    you dont give up a 30/100 guy for prospects... especially not when you have a limited window for actually winning on a team thats built to win now.
    you do that and we get worse, not better, for the next 2-3 years.
    count me out on that.. anyone that wants to talk Trumbo better come with equally impactful talent.

    floplag got a reaction from ispy45 in Bourjos traded to Cardinals   
    I see it isnt a popular deal...
    I see it like this. Freese upgrades 3B and Salas is still probably an upgrade in the bullpen by the numbers pver most of what we ran outthere last year.
    Borjous was a 4th OF and losing Grichuck sucks but he was what 7 on the depth chart?
    It does have a win now feel to it, but lets be honest, isnt that what we are built for right now?
    Bottom line, i like it, i think the value makes sense and the team is better today than it was yesterday.

    floplag got a reaction from saangels in Obama administration collecting your phone records from Verizon   
    ...meet the new boss... same as the old boss.
    Im sorry i still laugh at anyone who thinks there is any difference whatever between political parties in this country.
     
    Between this and the fact that they are also now monitoring Internet traffic, we have no right to privacy anymore and as far as im concerned have completely lost our identity as a nation.

    floplag got a reaction from Tank in Sharing your faith is soon to be a crime in the military   
    while i think it being a crime is ludicrous, there is a time and place for religious dicussions... places that are not religious in nature or have nothing to do with personal beliefs, are not it. 
    The military is an example of not it, but a court matialable offeense is just downright silly.

    floplag got a reaction from Angelsjunky in This aligns with my view of the subject matter.   
    id also like to point out once again that using religion, or any other personal viewpoint as the basis for making laws that govern people that do not share your religion or viewpoint is precisely the kind of thing this country was supposed to be against.
     
    Religion is not a shared basis in virtually any community in this country, nor should it be.  base laws on those things that affect us all, common sense, civility, anything, and i mean literally anything, but religion.
     
    There is no difference at all between using Christian "views" to force gays into the closet as there is using muslim views to rape 12 year old girls or murder infidels.  Think about that next time you wanna use your personal views to tell someone else how to live based on your personal views.
     
    the hypocrisy of the religion blows my mind.  those who sin in the name of god are the worst sinners of them all.
