Did your friend go to school in San Diego and move to Australia recently? LOL, i think we know the same girl

I know Mark's brother and he would laugh hysterically at that suggestion.

Why does it matter? Stradling, you're becoming just as annoying as the people you don't like.

I don't find the C-17 flyovers very impressive myself. A boring (and quiet) airplane. Get the folks at the Chino Airport to fly over with their vintage restored aircraft. Most people wouldn't notice the difference anyway.

Ed, you have to make a $1000 vow of faith in order to use that avatar.

Sounds like Larry Archey is still obsessed with JFK. Yes/no?

If you think they're lazy and unmotivated in spring training, look no further than Mike Scioscia's personal fitness plan.

I realize it's mostly guys from the farm pitching, but we're dead last (30th) with a team ERA of 7.91.

You can morph anybody's face into a chimp. The pic more or less needs to be a mugshot. Where it says upload a JPEG, just copy and paste a website link and it will work. Oh, and you need to have Java enabled. http://morph.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Transformer/

That's because I just made it. MS as a kid:

My new avatar is Mike Scioscia, 50% chimp.

I suppose it's early enough to laugh, however... The last couple years the lack of urgency in spring training has led to season-defining months of April and May. I don't think it's a coincidence either. Nobody is kicking their asses into gear and it shows.

I know this is going to sound ridiculous but I'm finding that the extra whitespace aggravates the carpal tunnel in my right wrist. With the old forum, about 3-4 posts would fit vertically without needing to scroll up and down. Now, depending on the monitor size, it's 2-3 posts max. Does anybody else have this problem? The wrist pain comes from using the mouse scroll wheel too often...the pain shoots up my middle finger (on the scroll wheel) and into my wrist. Don't know if you can do anything about it, but reducing the vertical cellpadding and the height of the avatar box would help greatly. Edit: I think part of my problem is with the thread listing page. More scrolling is required to read the thread titles as compared to the old forum.
