  1. Well, now that you've ruined the surprise it's never going to happen.
  2. I assume that Nick Saban is already in the bag and is on his way?
  3. I have to ask: if a person is actually born gay (and boy it sure seems that there is a genetic basis for it, mutation or not), how in the world does it make sense to choose to deny them a right (and associated benefits) that will have absolutely no effect on the rights of others? Would it be similarly fair to deny such rights to those born of a particular sex, with blonde hair, albinism or Down Syndrome IF no harm would directly come of it to others? Furthermore, how in the world does it make sense to do so on the foundation of a belief based in chosen (not inherent) faith that a person can opt to hold or dismiss and is NOT born with? ...and if they aren't born gay, how are their rights and accompanying ability to have equal benefits in this respect somehow less important than those of those that choose to abide by a faith that guides them in thinking that being gay is wrong? As always, I think we should strip the term "marriage" from the government vocabulary, but that's not ever going to happen.
  4. There are more holes in your post than the world has plugs for.
  5. Clever, but there's no way I am going to both wear my Marx t-shirt and start a thread on the same day. That's overkill.
  6. Before I respond: are you in serious mode or troll mode?
  7. He's gonna Napoli the Angels right after he DB Cooper'd 'em? Not cool, Vernon.
  8. Kevin Gregg has an LG O G.
  9. From my Facebook feed via a friend's post: "I support with this disclaimer: This is a political issue, not a religious one. I don't think that the government should tell people who they can and cannot marry. As a Christian, my interpretation of scripture classifies homosexuality as a sin, but it also classifies drunkenness, lust, divorce, and pretty much everything else as such (though Christian society in general treats homosexuality much worse for some unknown reason, I have no idea why, don't ask me). If the government legislated what I believed was a sin, we'd all be in jail. Getting angry is a sin, thinking you're better than others, not giving everything you have away... yeah glad those aren't laws. People who sin are not my enemies. And by that I mean everything single person to ever be born are not my enemies. It's not the government's job to keep me from looking at porn, it's not the government's job to make sure that I tell my wife I love her from time to time, it's not the government's job to make sure that I give to charities and don't spend all my money on my own pleasures, while the world starves. The government is there to protect freedom. The government is not my nanny, it's not my momma, and it's not Jesus. How we are raised and what we believe are right and wrong is not the government's business. Don't mistake your child for your dog, and don't mistake your religion for your government. In a free society we should all be free to swing sticks wherever we want, so long as we don't hit anyone with them. So there you have it, a fundi-Christian supporting the legal right gay marriage" Yep.
  10. Track it. If you're not using a lot of streaming and your data use is actually that low, I don't think there would be any reason for you to be concerned about throttling on any provider. If you somehow use less than 100 mins of talk a month, TMobile offers a no-contract plan though Walmart that is $30 a month for unlimited text and 4G data w/ 100 mins. Also, the aforementioned Straight Talk appears to be solid. I've stuck with Sprint as I have a referral plan that's ridiculously reasonable, but I definitely would have jumped already were it not for that and I still might when my contract is up later this year.
  11. A thousand. It was like they thought that the zone Syracuse plays was some sort of wizardry. Crabbe is a great player but I don't understand why he took himself out of the game like he did. He kept playing further and further away. His hesitancy to do something with the ball ended up being the difference in the game. He needed another wake up moment. I'm pretty sure he's gone but there's a chance he could stay. They were in a position to take the game at the end, but couldn't do it. It didn't feel like a 6 point loss. It felt like a 25 point loss Solomon had a spectacular game. His development this year was amazing and his turn around in all areas (basketball and academics) is commendable.
  12. What hurt most about and yet was best about it was that we traded Napoli and he went on to kill it for the Rangers for a single year. With that said, without the resulting acquisition of Napoli, the Rangers would never have been in a position to pull off the single greatest choke job in baseball history. Given the facts that A) even if we didn't make the trade we wouldn't have won it all that year and that B)Napoli fell apart as Mike Scioscia ultimately knew he would due to his feeble nature, it's actually good that the Rangers gained Napoli for 2011 and we didn't have him. Outside of Santana's no-no, the fact that the Rangers blew it so spectacularly was the BY FAR the best thing about the 2011 season. Furthermore, after 2011, you know Rangers fans were sure they had the catcher position locked up for another half a decade, and by a guy that would mash for that period of time. We knew better than those birdbrains. The Angels took much better care of Napoli and his fine china hips while not intentionally injuring him for the sake of winning like the Rangers did. What I'm saying is...the Wells deal was a good one.
  13. How much data do you use monthly?
  14. Holy crap. He wins this running away, and I wasn't sure anybody could defeat Wells. Check this out: 2007-2009 LAD 3 6 6.02 10 GS 10 G 1.708 WHIP -0.6 WAR 43.1 IP for..... $47 million.
  15. Have you guys already offered Chris Petersen the job?
  16. Nope. That distinction belongs to the 2012 Red Sox.
  17. It's negligible, but if it saves the team money via tax and some salary for equal production, it's a no brainer.
  18. You know who they should have hired two years ago? Ben Howland. They should have told him to stop recruiting a bunch of guys that project to be nothing but 1 or 2s and dones. If he hadn't gone away from what was working for him earlier, he would have remained massively successful. The system that he runs isn't broken, but it was never going to work with the kind of players he had recently. It's really a shame. Howland's true ceiling hadn't been reached at UCLA. I truly think that he would have brought UCLA multiple titles if he had managed to recruit guys for his system.
  19. Cal Spring game is right now. Marshawn Lynch has a TD. Awesome.
  20. I don't understand how anybody can consider Weaver overrated. I really don't.
  21. You guessed it: http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/spring2013/story/_/id/9088208/why-erick-aybar-baseball-most-underrated-player-mlb
  22. I'm pretty sure it was yk that brought this to our collective attention.
  23. FWIW, Cal is a basketball school until at least 10 or so tonight, hopefully longer. After that,we may be a WBB school.
