Wow. Democrats nominate an African American. I'm excited - Obama is a special candidate. PBS said McCain and Obama each have roughly half of the nation behind them. This one should get exciting.

Prediction : Hillary delivers the keynote at the convention -- McCain wins. (Let's hope I'm wrong about both)

Yeah. That's exactly what we need. More homophobic racist managers. Perfect assessment of the situation.

501 was more impressive than 500. The ball was 5 inches outside and Manny went king kong to right. So few people can do that. Impressive stuff from one of the best.

Interesting, last week's column garnered less than ten responses, this week ten times ten and counting. It's like someone whacked a hornet's nest.

Most of Garrison's columns garner very few letters. That is because most of them are so perfect there is nothing left to say. This time he opened up a can of red and blue worms.

Women in the U.S. have fewer rights than women in other developed nations, and even some women in less developed nations

I would love to read some examples which support your claim.

Women will be able to get abortions in any state - regardless of who becomes president. Everything else is just posturing.

"inevitable"

"they're attacking me because I'm ahead"

"I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."

threatening to "totally obliterate (Iran)"

I think the 'dark stain' we've uncovered is how erractic and foolish she can be.

Baseball players are paid well.

Great baseball players are paid very well.

But on to more important things. This guy has a great swing. He's one of those hitters who seem to have a disproportionate amount of power for their swing. He's quick to the ball and has good timing.

Did anyone see Berkman hit the ball into Dianabol Cove last night?

She was pretty funny on Letterman last night.

One of her top ten reasons for retiring:

"to spend more time with Brett Favre's family"

laughed out loud, spewing toothpaste.

You know you all love it when some good looking dude in a suit eyes you up and down. Maybe even smiles and makes eye contact. That's acceptable.

But whenever it's someone who isn't good looking..... harassment.

Am I wrong??

My solution for you girls: if you're going to freak, just wear huge sweatsuits everywhere, seriously. Don't expect to wear the ef-me pumps and tight ass clothes and low cut top (or any combination of those) and not get looks.

I think Wolfe had a great line about this stuff in Bonfire.

And remember, we're sexual beings, that's why we're here. Yeah, even you!

(audible cat-calling is obviously over the line)

But this BS post is stupid. Of course people like validation.

Please go read up on all of Mary J. Blige's racist comments. Then write a BS report about it. I'm waiting.

I bet there are a ton of football players who don't think plagarism is a 'scandal'. I mean, they're just words. Eventually the combinations will align, right?

Did anyone see what Garnett mouthed to the fans while he pounded his chest?

I'm 100% sure he referred to the Cavs fans as 'effin homosexuals' with alliteration. Well done Kev, you moron.

That dunk was nasty. Go Cavs.

**off topic** I was in Houston a couple weeks ago. They have billboards all over which read: Houston Supports Roger Clemens. Can't help but laugh.

He's not even that good. There, it's been said.

Every fall when I would show up on campus, my whole D1 team would gather in a room where some woman would read us all of the NCAA rules out of a packet. We mainly just looked at the girls volleyball team sitting on the other half of the room.

The whole system is stupid. NCAA students aren't allowed to accept cash for anything, and they don't have time for a job. This ensures a broken system.

I've been on the receiving end of many NCAA violations. I think I lost that t-shirt years ago, and that lunch wasn't even good.

GO BUCKS.

Pitchers have been neutered. Hitters get armoured up and they're comfortable knowing that guys aren't coming inside again and again.

If this were 1950, Sexson would be sent to the mental hospital for evaluation. That pitch was nowhere near him.

Every network tv station in the country just interupted regular programs to announce Obama in NCarolina.

Will Hillary bow out for the sake of the party??

Hmmmmmm, methinks she won't.

I've been predicting a Hillary derailment for some time - I offer another: John McCain will take the oath to be the 44th President of the US.

Third party formed for midterm elections. Democrats marginalized. America lurches into the future. Divided. Pointing fingers. Feeling victimized. (Fyi, we did it to ourselves with out standard of living.)

Remind me to invite Leighton over when "Baby Mama" comes out on DVD.

Deal. As long as you remind me to invite Leighton over whenever I see her.

methinks this was a clever way of King making his life easier.

Can't fill a column?? Just post a paragraph or two. Go find those cookies, write another few sentences, boom, it's up.

Getting close to 5?? Whatever, here's what I got, deal with it.

I'll call it the "2 inches of computer screen which displays King's words, flanked by thousands upon thousands of advertisements which will inevitably roll over the writing so I can't read anything."

Good article.

There is a point to be made about the decline of print media, but this guy didn't make it.

It's always sad when some venerable old-media character gets all pissy about the net. (See Lee Seigel or whatever his name is from NPR). I want to think they're above it, but they're not. Their flailing brings em down to size.

Keep riding the edge of the wave King, we appreciate it.
