Still here Adam. I guess I stopped giving a Sh@t. Screw it, now I just use Tarot cards and astrology for answers.

To an extent I'd agree but regardless of anyones political perspective, with some issues the President appears little more than a puppet, as was Bush and Clinton. Maybe the push towards many an agenda including your posted concerns originate from forces outside the official government.

There will always be from the lowest levels to the most powerful positions people conspiring against others. The government in relationship with those who have historically tried to control them, IMO, is conspiracy conducive. To believe conspiracies don't exist, especially relating to the government is to be in denial.

I'm sure the White House and Congress were crapping their pants after it all sank in just what their puppet masters were fully capable of.

Exactly. The players have sucked, but as the God Momus hands out blame in percentages in.......oh say pizza slices, Scioscia should pick a large slice.

This video sucks also. These SWAT guys appear to kill dogs as a matter of procedure.

There's no joke about his thread. I really dislike Trout batting 2nd in front of bert which appears to be a poor attempt at helping Sir bert tross pitch selection? We are compromising our best player, especially if it's true that Trout needs to stay put at first while bert pops up fat "mistake" pitches, breaks his bat on inside pitches he shouldn't be swinging at inducing double plays and whiffs at most everything else because this impostor's eye at the plate seems to have become obsolete also. Does berts's family still stay in St Louis until the kids are out of school?

When I see the Cards pitching roster I am jealous. Maybe the Cards acquired knowledge at one point that Pujols was 36-37 or 40, when he was really 30 but figured they wouldn't tell the league because of his great years of service and just let him go to to some foolish team knowing he'd break within a year or 3, not knowing said foolish team would give him something like a 10 year contract.

That is why I referred to the body's chakras in my previous post regarding Yoga. Afterwards, I was attempting(probably poorly) at aiming the comment towards the commercial type yoga. I believe many Jesus's statements were all about empowering one's self, not giving up power to an external diety, as is common. The Christos is within.

MT, am pretty much right there with you, it's just that I was taught parts of the bible in a metaphorical fashion and not all literal history.

Was it an upside down pentagram while repeating an incantation?

The divination arts when not done with good intentions can lead to demonic tendencies. There are rules. IMO, Yoga, as it is mostly physical is probably the least of these arts that would manifest anything demonic. Prayer? that can be powerful and it is strange that many think it is only used for good.

A lot of yoga utilizes the body's Chakras which doesn't have to, but can lead to the better understanding of divination, whether it be with nature in general, such as shapes of birds in flight to Kabbala, numerology or Tarot cards. I consider myself Christian but maybe a little more open minded than the more orthodox type. As we are taught, Intention is key to it all. Anything can be used for good or bad. Money is a good example.

I'm assuming you mean RF. Hamilton's defense, while having trouble with playing balls off our high wall has been very good. He has made many diving catches this year and is our best option by far in RF.

they need aybar in their lineup to bail us out.

Yep, after feeling disappointed about a loss it's better than no baseball

While that may be true, this team is underperforming terribly and it would be quite abnormal for it not to be a topic of fan discussion. Yes, it's only a game but when fans invest time, money and emotion coupled with the pre-season expectations presented to the fans, disappointment will be exhibited. I am sure Arte is upset; we should be too.

I'm a season ticket holder that has stopped going to most games, as the relative long drive that used to be worth it just isn't worth it anymore. Obviously talent is an issue and IMO this team is above average talent-wise. IMO by listening to players over the years, there's that "fire" needed that every team feels during the season when they are going well, the fire, attitude, never give up feeling that the good teams seem to manifest much easier than other teams. It probably comes from the leadership, collective chemistry of the players, coaching and managing. This team doesn't have it. It is an ambiguous issue to address.

He was one of favorites until his GIDP bug. It seems the league sure knows the guy can't keep from pulling that outside or low and outside pitch for a GIDP or K especially with RISP. BA with RISP in the .290's, but it sure seems like in the key situations he folds like a cheap suit. I wonder how much the coaches have worked with him.

Also Pujols and his walker on second was ridiculous. didn't matter in the end but IMO MS is afraid to insult his vets. I hope he doesn't lose credibility with his players for these decisions.

May not be a bad idea. Pujols prior to last year said he feels more comfortable batting 4th and JH prior to this season says he feels much more comfortable batting 3rd, yet our lineup starts the year the opposite. I...dunno...WTF.

I wonder if the back spasm issue is just MS. What I don't like is that we never hear, even from our TV announcers if the team has been trying to get him turned around. Just silence on that front. Seems weird.
