NotOrbitBoy

It is simple bigotry to imply that most or all members of Salon use foul language and name-calling and I for one resent it.

You conservative puke motherfucker you.

On A Hot Summer Day

I can make a case for hanging around those roving ice cream trucks with bells, and comfiscating some kid's cone.

Although I Suppose

If we were to continue the pre-emptive war/imperialism philosophy, we will eventually know everything there is to know about insurgencies.

My Favorite Part

Is the outrage about Iran and Syria meddling in Iraq now. And maybe even Turkey at some point.

What the hell did they expect?

We've been intervening and meddling over here on our turf whenever we deemed it necessary---in South and Central America.

Now we can cross the globe and inject ourselves into Iraq, and the surrounding countries are supposed to back off.

Is that you John Wayne?

You Just Know

When the Saddam statue was yanked down and we had that little air-craft carrier victory party, that the entirety of Middle Eastern Islam from moderate to extreme was thinking "Morons."

Holly

Let your fingers do the walkin',

Call me up some time,

I'm listed under broken hearts,

Lookin' for a good time,

I can't reach out and touch you,

You hang up all the time,

I'm a disconnected number now,

And you're a private line.

Rizzuto

Was short, he was a hustler, and played on championship teams. I'd say David Eckstein better start preparing his hall of fame acceptance speech.

Just at a cursory glance, Rizzuto's MVP season of 1950 was a sham as well. Berra and Dimaggio of the same team appear more qualified. That was probably one of those times where the voters were pretending to see something that no one else could see in terms of chemistry/character/value to winning, or some other such hooey.....or maybe the sportwriters were simply echoing the nonsense coming from the sentimental and cross-eyed fans. It's hard to tell where this kind of chorus of stupidity starts. Are you telling me if the 1950 season could be played again and the Yankee manager could keep Dimaggio or Rizzuto but not both, he'd keep Rizzuto?

On the announcing front, the "Holy Cow" may not have a legal patent or trademark, but it appears Rizzuto was parroting Harry Caray. That's weak.

To administer some sort of senility or mental alertness test to the veteran committee members every couple years. To weed out the riff-raff.

1/2 Price Offer Guys

I have a side business where I will come and deliver eulogies. And as you can probably deduce by now, I won't sugarcoat it. In some cases that may be preferred by the survivors.

I think the aforementioned "intangibles" fits in nicely with the bias theme today. I've noticed that the more intangibles, the more likely an athlete is white. In fact in might go as far as total synonyms....intangible = white.

We Have These Players

Who often do nothing that shows up in the box score, so we have to imagine things that don't show up in the box score. Intangibles. And even if they are real, the guys with a bunch of stuff in the box score every night, do that other stuff too.

I Can Only Say This

If Bill James had to manage one seven game series against someone else, picking anyone in their prime from a draft pool to make the team, losing manager goes to the guillotine, and the two picks left were for the shortstop slot and it was Campy or Concepcion and Rizzuto, and he took Rizzuto, the totality of his baseball writings are worthless.

Or a moving video exists. I've only seen stills. The Rumsfeld-Saddam big smiles and handshake session in Baghdad in the 80's.

Gee, why does the Muslim world distrust us so?

Has Anyone Noticed

The striking similarities between the impeachment and attempt to remove Clinton from office with this Iraq nonsense.

They just keep going and going headlong against public will and common sense, tossing crap against the walls hoping against hope something will stick, praying something will happen or something they say will turn the tide in their favor.

The Thing About Torture

Is say you use the pliars, and the electric shock, and the billy club, and the dental drill and finally the guy says okay, we're blowing up such and such a building. So you go running there with the swat teams etc and nothing happens.

Then what? You go back and start torturing the guy again?

The Scores Are Frauds

Anyhow. Like someone said earlier......A game, or a playoff series, can come down to whether one pitch around the plate was called a ball or a strike. And the fans of whatever team that wins strut around like Peacocks in heat, bragging and saying their team proved they were "the best."
