This is the time a baseball announcer would say, "this has the feel of a game where if you don't capitalize on all these opportunities early and let the other team stay in the game, they might steal one."

What the hell do bermuda shorts have to do with anything? She's been wearing that crap for a long time and obviously would not have been allowed on air if it violated dress codes. Women in the professional world where that style of clothing all the time.
-
Not the one from 1955, no. I work in Manhattan, I see women in that style of clothing all the time.
-
What's sexual about mocking how someone dresses? Have you people never seen a sexual harrassment video. Talking about how they dress is well within the bounds of inappropriate. And he wasn't just critiquing her style, the quotes obviously relate to his opinion that she was dressed like somebody who was asking for it.
-
There was some article a while back where she said she picks out her clothes... can't remember where it was. Someone had interviewed her about her style. Still, at any other employer, that's sexual harassment -- whether his comments were accurate (I think they were, despite Storm being a fox) or otherwise. If one of the male anchors came out wearing bermuda shorts while another was wearing business attire and KT criticized him, what would that be? A completely different situation. She wasn't dressed any differently than thousands of women in the business world dress everyday. And it's a freaking sports highlight show, not meet the press.

Because men can't sexually harrass men?

The US has dominated possession, but the Swiss have done a great job of getting in their way and decreasing the value of those chances.

Except he has a history of criticizing everyone...male or female...for any number of things, including attire. I think sexual harrassment would be a tough thing to prove. A history of criticizing doesn't make up for anything.

US is so sloppy.
-
Pretty bad start.
-
This. TK went overboard but the overall point was correct. It was hideous and an anchor shouldn't be wearing anything like that. The overall point was wrong.
-
He's been a pro since 2006 and has yet to have an impressive season. His overall numbers are very mediocre, and he's far from young. He is already 25 years old, with 436 professional innings following up 240 innings of major college pitching. He is what he is. At this point it would be a huge stretch to see him as a successful starter. He may turn into a decent reliever, but that wouldn't justify the investment they made in him, in terms of time, money, draft position and no trade clause. Remember this is the guy the Cubs used to justify overdrafting Colvin, and a huge portion of any prospects value is his trade value, which is zilch in the case of Samardzija.

It's really weird to be passionate enough about a coach to follow the team's he moves to.
-
He absolutely was not correct. It was both blatantly inappropriate, and completely wrong*. *Not to mention at least a year late to the party.

Those four are most likely, though Lilly has said he wants to be ready to go at the start of the year. The darkhorse would be Thomas Diamond. The only way Wells is 4th is in the case of Lilly starting the season (not going to happen). Most likely 2 of those 4 will have to start early in the year.

I feel like this post is missing a word somewhere. Now we can fill in the missing verb. mosi tatutpu, father of lofa, and member of football's version of the washington generals, the 1985 patriots, was signed by the Cubs today to bring a second strong clubhouse presence alongside Kevin Millar. As long as it was a minor league contract I don't mind.

Probably not stone, but the Cubs do not let go of guaranteed contracts that easily, especially ones signed by left handed hitters. -

One hopes that "Improve clubhouse chemistry" isn't this years' "get more lefthanded" or "acquire guys who can catch the ball". On the plus side, I've not seen any direct quotes from Lou, Hendry or anyone else involved in personnel decisions to suggest that Fontenot's move is related to Millar's potential roster spot. This seems to be a fabrication of Sullivan, et al. It seems to be, and it could just be the Cubs screwing around and trying to fabricate some sort of spring training competition, but I've questioned their motives for bringing in Millar from the beginning. There are better options to store in AAA for emergency purposes. The idea that they think his chemical abilities in spring training will somehow carry over into the regular season after he is gone makes even less sense than thinking he will positively influence the outcome of the season with his personality by being there all year. -
In my case I have reasons for all three. I was living in the Chicago area when I first started following football, I was living in Indiana when the Colts moved from Baltimore, and I was living in North Carolina when the Panthers started (and still am in NC). It's no trouble for me as long as I have a clear pecking order when it comes to the teams. For example, in Super Bowl XLI I wasn't happy that the Bears lost, I was just less unhappy than I would have been if they had lost to somebody else. That may be how you justify it to yourself, but it still doesn't make sense. I've lived in the NY area for nearly two decades, other than occasionally cheering for the Jets in a non-Bears related game since I have friends who are Jets fans (and I like seeing them get their hopes up and then crushed), I don't have a single ounce of fandom for any of the teams. I've seen every team play at home live except the Islanders, I've seen numerous championships and I haven't even considered being a fan.

I don't get how it happens with pro sports. There's a limited number of teams in any given league and it seems cut and dry. I can understand with college sports, where one may have grown up as a fan of one team but went to college at another school, and with hundreds of options and the potential for you "favorites" to never play, it makes sense. I can see cheering for another team when yours is out of it, but to actually have a second and third favorite just makes no sense to me.

This is just a horrible, horrible statement. You already knew that I'm a bad person, though, since I'm on record as liking Survivor. This shouldn't surprise you. :twisted: As far as liking reality shows goes, that's not the most offensive.

He may lack the scrappy middle infielder criteria, but he's only 6' and he is white, so the shoe can still fit.
