  1. taking a simpler approach...why do I have to pay for your health care? Apparently 1/3 of Americans get their health insurance via their jobs. Those who don't either get the medical bills and than declare bankruptcy (apparently upwards of 2/3 of all personal bankruptcy is medical bill related - I guess good credit is needed now?) or just simply are not insured and take the risks. It seems like the 1/3 of the people are being forced to pay for those who don't have it. I just wonder what other things we won't get to make our own life decisions for. What's next, a child limit? a Standardized test to tell you what to do with your life? For those who say it is a right to get medical coverage, that is incorrect. It is a privilege. This is why for many years, health insurance was termed as a "Fringe" benefit. What is a "right" is that if you have the means, you help others. However, it should be a "right" for people to choose what help to give. That is freedom...inherently a choice. Where are people's choices here?
  2. I like the current format. Gives people a chance every year and keeps them interested year after year.
  3. What would considered Useful? 180 IP 4.25 ERA?
  4. Actually I expect people to offer something more then the above. But at least I don't embarrass myself like you so often do and have done in this thread. Why are you so Angry? Do you need a hug? This is getting creepy. I'm also not sure how I "embarassed" myself in this thread simply because I don't agree with your declaration that all of the movies that won Best Picture in the 90's are better than the ones that did in the 00's. Well usually when a bully resorts to name calling it is clear that they are no longer angry at the person, more angry at themselves. Its OK to be angry at yourself. Most people here don't like you either

  6. Wow, another great opinion. Absolutely nothing worthwhile stated other than simply bashing something without justifying it. Seriously, do you ever explain your reasoning on anything or is it simply that you don't like much and just like to be a negative nellie? I mean seriously. Nothing says cartoon than fava beans
  7. What a Sad list. Maybe 3 of those movies will be remembered in 15 years. Look at the list from the 90's and tell me that film quality hasnt gone down Driving Miss Daisy Dances with Wolves Silence of the Lambs Unforgiven Schindler's List Forrest Gump Bravehart Titanic Shakespeare in Love (But Really Saving Private Ryan) All of these movies are arguably better than most, if not all, of the films of the '00. Obviously '99 got the wrong movie and a couple of others have some flaws but overall the only winner from the '00 that stands against these is LOTR and maybe NCFOM (not convinced. Not even the Coen Brothers best from the decade - 'O Brother was better).
  8. Ok so I have changed my mind. If the Seahawks draft goes like this I would be estatic given: A. Derek Anderson is on their radar to replace Seneca as the backup/future QB (UGH!) B. THe fact that they can address their 3 biggest issues right now in the 1st 3 rounds with non reaches Seahawks pick RB Jahvid Best
  9. Of all the posters to recognize someone else's negative attitude, I probably wouldn't have picked you
  10. Wouldn't Be Suprised to see him on the Seahawks
  11. Geez dude, do you have anything to offer this thread other than complaints about other people's ideas? Wait, I can't offer my opinion about the Cubs going out and getting more relievers in the thread about the Cubs going out and getting more relievers? Wait, this is opinion about something? Here I thought it was all just cranky guy trying to piss people off. Perhaps if you want a different perception, you should actually offer something more than just shooting people down all the time
  12. Trent Williams
  13. Geez dude, do you have anything to offer this thread other than complaints about other people's ideas?
  14. no way that this is realistic in any way from all being talked about now. Seemingly this pick is relatively locked to Okung if the draft goes as many predict. But....Given the current availability and the fact that The Seahawks have #14 too Sam Bradford here is as big of a no brainer as Aaron Curry was last season. But if it does work out like this in April, expect the 'Hawks to trade down with Buffalo and pick up a 2nd rounder (I would actually be happy with Trent Edwards and a 4th instead). Long winded answer... Sam Bradford
  15. Lee being Right handed adds to this equation and would allow for Hendry to get a LH Bat from a typically LH position. Overbay here we come
  16. Ramirez if definitely exercising the option. I vote to let Lee walk and thank him for his excellent Cub Career
  17. lol, roy cant stay healthy though also he's worse than kevin durant at basketball Ha, ha. This is wrong in so many ways
  18. Yeah, my deal was probably not as good as the 3rd and fourth I could have gotten but it is what it is... It was probably worse than some of the deals we exchanged previously. Oh well... Live and learn.
  19. no way Durant and Roy could play together. Given the choice, Roy is my guy
  20. So the Blazers finally have a big man with the Camby trade going down. Pretty good deal in all situations. Camby is actually having a pretty solid year defenisively and can help Juan Howard from failing miserably as he gets tired at the end of the season. I read somewhere that in the 27 games the Blazers have left only 6 are with teams that they are battling with for playoff spots. What a stupid NBA schedule
  21. have a good one. Keep a watch on us
  22. its a fun league!
  23. But those discussions inevitably devolve into bickering and name calling. What purpose does that serve? So you want a forum where bickering and name calling is the purpose?
  24. How many World Series did your 4 examples win? Absolutely ZERO. Interesting argument there. So what you are saying is players that are noted as being the cause of negativity may create good careers for themselves but poor team (or group) success. Thanks for proving my point.
