  1. yea will be especially interesting since they just saw him last week. Definitely a big test.
  2. The Angels are seemingly not as enthralled with Grant Green as some on this board. I personally feel like the clubs judgment is probably a bit better. Although he is seemingly a promising player. Kendrick is a consistently above average MLB 2b. He will not be easy to replace. I also continue to think that Conger just needs more consistent AB. He imo is better then he's shown this year with the stick.
  3. Guy just continues to impress. Wow.
  4. I get staying away from Bartolo, but we are not gonna pull down one of the big FA pitchers if we have to stay under the luxery tax threshold.
  5. Huzzah 3-3 !! Trout may not be fished as a major leaguer !
  6. He definitely did not help my fantasy team. The injury really messed him up. He seemed primed to put up big time numbers in Texas.
  7. Sir , you speak of Armenians. Not Muslim s by and large. Glendale might have more Armenians then Armenia. FYI.
  8. This comment, besides being false, is also incredibly one sided and unfair. Israel has been at least an equal contributor to the failure of negotiations, and thats being extremely generous. Im not going to keep repeating what I have said over and over again. You refuse acknowledge the existence of any Israeli aggression or hostile act. Those acts which are at the very heart of this conflict. It is an incredibly dishonest/ignorant position (i realize you probably think im being dishonest myself.). As far as that quote goes. Its racist as shit. The jews also apparently love their children more. As if the sole reason the conflict endures is because the Arabs just hate those Jews. Golda Meir, born in the Ukraine. Funny how she found her way to Palestine. Its funny how this thread sort of reflects the intractable nature of the conflict. Opinions on this issue are so hardened. Tragically it sort of shows why there seems to be no end in sight for this thing. Poozy, Lou, and Eric. I hope you don't think I harbor any hostility towards you guys. I really do not. Like I said when I first posted in this thread, I just thought I would share my perspective since its probably different from what you are use to. Hopefully I have made you at least consider looking at the conflict from a different angle. Im done with this thread because ive said all I have to say at this point. Go Angels !
  9. this, Im the first one to admit that Kendrick is both disappointing and frustrating at times. That being said, he is still one of the better 2nd basemen in baseball. Its a thin position and he brings a 3 WAR at less then 10 million. It wont be easy to replace him.
  10. Hey Eric, why don't you see if you can find one of those cool countdown websites that tracks every time the Israeli's assault the Palestinians. Maybe you can also explain in detail how white phosphorus kills people. Or how a modern air to ground munition works. Im sure you'll enjoy doing this since your interested in fairness. Nate, did you really just describe the Palestinians as possessing a military and being rebels ? Some astounding stuff in this thread. Christ.
  11. well, if he does have to take a shit during the game, hopefully the offense see's enough pitches to let him do so comfortably. This is questionable however.
  12. so we are expecting to light up good pitchers ? results seem about right to me.
  13. I wish the guy would just go after hitters. anyway, a fine effort. if we can get more of this from him, we'll be in good shape for the stretch....pitching wise.
  14. they've been close games, even after this series we have 7 more against these a**holes. Keep the chins up guys. Lots of baseball to be played yet.
  15. good read Taylor, its refreshing to read about how this guy is keeping hate out of his heart.
  16. I don't think we should be so quick to jump ship on Conger, the guy has a good bat it just isn't showing up right now. I think he just cant get going with the playing time that he gets. Catchers that have some pop aren't exactly common. He's still pretty young.
  17. Israeli child killed by a mortor. Terrible. Some other news, http://news.yahoo.com/hamas-leader--don-t-compare-us-to-isil-193125056.html Meshaal admits that the attack in the west bank was unsanctioned, however carried out by Hamas members. Also swears up and down that they do not advocate attacking civilians. However they do not view settlers as civilians. Pretty much the standard line. Really wish this round of the fighting would just end.
  18. this is not entirely accurate. Many Many Many of the jews who emigrated out of the muslim world into Israel did so out of a desire to embrace the zionist idea and move to Israel. Zionist agents actively sought to bring as many jews as possible into israel. Many of them came out of north africa and while there were some instances of anti jewish violence, there was no significant push to force jews out. There is no doubt that there were instances where anti jewish violence drove emigration particularly during heightened times of trouble between the arab states and Israel but again, not nearly on the same scale as the palestinian expulsion/exodus.
  19. what are u talking about broseff ? you were talking about "hundreds of years" of the jews being persecuted. That was in Europe not the arab world. The jews fled north africa and the arab world to go settle in Israel when the troubles started between the arabs and zionists. There were not expulsions on the scale that the Israeli's inflicted on the Palestinians however. We can discuss the jewish migration into Israel/Palestine if you like. There are lots of different ways that happened.
  20. So its justice then that the Palestinian Arabs lose their homes and lands because the Europeans abused the Jews. Why should the Palestinians be the ones paying that price ? They committed no crimes against the Jews. Why not have the Germans surrender Bavaria ?
