So i finally did it . . .

There’s a Confederate soldier still holding out somewhere in the Everglades.

Or was I watching Deputy Dawg?

Yes that would be one scene, They had us patting down Christian for weapons. This version has it cut out, but the original version had it still in. Go figure.

@Imperious:

Told us what?  You parroted what everyone else said.  Should have been over in 6.

I told you they would go over 180, I told you Lebron would score +30, I told you Wade would score 20+, I told you to bet the line but don’t give up more than 6 points, i told you Heat would win.

What I’m saying is this is not news.  Both teams averaged over 100pts a game during the regular season, and every single Finals game was 180+.  Lebron averaged over 30 the majority of the series, specifically the last 4 games.  Wade had no issue scoring unless no one else was.  I also don’t bet, so that’s useless to me even though you lost that one.

Wade will be traded, or should for another younger 20+ PPG. Ginobili should be traded.  Bosh won’t be traded. Heck his rebound in game 6 and all the intangibles he has makes him a keeper.

There’s not a single person talking about this except you.  Their #1 and #2 pieces are LBJ and Wade.  Bosh is a distant 3.  If anyone is traded, it’s him.  He’s the only one with value that is expendable.  Who would take Ginobili except a crap team?  He’ll retire before they even think of trading him.  Bosh does well with other scorers around him and not facing big men.  He’s too chicken to really go toe-to-toe unless his facing people smaller than him.

If Duncan leaves Pop may follow, but that team will be in decline next year due to age issues.

Without a doubt, they will leave together.  It’s already been expressed.  I wouldn’t be surprised if it was this offseason, whether they won or not.  But the truth is, they have age, but they have a great core of role players.  And the aging hasn’t been that bad.  Duncan and Parker weren’t quite the same a year and two ago, this year they lit it up.  Manu was fine except the Finals in one game - otherwise he played his role.  Kawhi Leonard will be a star, and I’ve said that since he was still with San Diego St.  Danny Green may yet find his mark.  Not even going to move on because it’s moot now.  It was a good mix of young up and coming players and seasoned veterans and it worked.

@frimmel:

@ABWorsham:

What do you think about (UT) Texas signing a mult-million dollar deal with ESPN for it’s own television network? I beleive it was 300 million.

I thinks it a matter of time before most teams realize just how much money is out there for grabs. This will change college football.

This is the first I’ve heard of it but it would certainly further explain the departure of Nebraska to the Big Ten and Colorado to the Pac 10. The precedent had been set previously with Notre Dame and NBC. This though would be very different from the perspective of Texas is not an independent and plays in a conference. I’ll have to look into this more sometime this week.

Got any links to good articles?

Ill check it out sometime, and throw it onto the extremely long list of books I want to read.

still here, though i am finding it difficult to get to a computer and check up on the site.

the bodies that will fall from the sky in future rains.

Bush did not personally order the destruction of ballot boxes. IF anyone did that, it would probably be Cheney. I don’t think Bush has a wicked bone in his body, he may or may not be foolish and brash, but I don’t think he has the intention of harming the US Gov’t or it’s citizens.

Yes so b/c daley is someone you don’t like he must personally have a hand in this, but when its Bush he doesn’t. I would argue a better case could be made against Bush in Florida b/c his bro is gov there. Daley could always blame a ‘bad egg’ aid. However, in neither instances is this a valid excuse, and really just to absolve the guilty among those who would support them.

Smith, if you get caught in a scandal, the proper thing to do is resign, or you could be like our beloved Bill, and stay in office.

Then why don’t the republicans do this? Note that they only resign when its a sexual scandal b/c they have to. If you are the moral authority and get caught doing something immoral then you have no choice, and in fact to stay in would only damage yourself and your advocates more.

Mr. Ryan’s only impropriety was wanting to have Sex with his Wife. He just didn’t want to reveal that they attended social gatherings of an adult nature. But he didnt want to have sex with other people or let her do the same. When she said no, he dropped it.

No that’s a very simplistic interpretation. What I hear was he wanted to ‘swing’ and she didn’t. Of course he being the moral authority and her the corrupt hollywood neophite this could only be spun so much thereby causing the resignation.

Daley on the other hand, would burn the flesh off his own screaming mother if it meant he could get 4 more years in office.

And bush would probably be willing to kill or have killed another 1000 Americans. What happened to compassionate conservativism, or his ‘love’ of Americans. Oh wait he never said he loved Americans only America. So I guess he was being compassionate by giving those 1000 a quick death.

I think the point would be to just NOT engage in a scandle…or is that too simplistic for the Dems and Reps to do???

Go Nader! (hey, I view it like this, if you are voting for the lesser of two evils, you are still voting for evil, right? Why not throw your vote on a 3rd party and vote against ALL evil!)

Well there are two problems here. One is that the judgement of what is scandal is usually made by the opposition party and therefore incredibly biased, and two the most virtuous presidents have been the worst ie Hoover, Carter, and perphaps even LBJ. In recent years there have emerged journals from Lincolns earlier years involving some of his sexual escapades in Springfield as a young attorney/congressman, and were authored not by himself, but by his friends and townspeople.
