Baltimore vs Houston game called off due to damage to stadium from the hurricane, rescheduled to Nov 9.

Double check your lineups to see if this effects your team.

Anyway - nobody is answering the question on the dinosaur issue. I already
know she favours teaching creationism as science. Now I'd like to know whether
she believes in it herself.

I need to know how scared I should be.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

Matt Damon calls it like he sees it

Old news in the fact that the putting down of Sarah Palin as having no experience
actually flies in the face of the Democrats in trying to get Obama elected, they have backed off
on this issue in case you hadn't noticed for obvious reasons ;)
Staying with this... Heard a good on the other day in comparing experience, "McCain has fired rockets
from war planes in Vietnam while Obama has fired staples into electric poles in Chicago, you decide"....Classic :D

Fire a rocket from a plane and it can go anywhere, try to do anything on the southside of Chicago and you can qualify for any military ribbon.

Miitary experience matters as much as W getting an excuse from his dad while he did coke duing Vietnam.

My eyes are twitching all week  :-\ That's extremely annoying. 

I do recall making fun of another board member who said he'd a twitching eye so it's probably some sort of pay back.

Must have been the Evil Eye

I think a Mary Harney figure is needed to keep them in line.

Personally I hate Obama, I think he's a smug, sly, sneaky, horrible character. I also hate Oprah because she thinks she has influence over what america does. I don't like the way this has turned into a racial debate in america - its not about government policy, its about reparations.

At the same time I don't trust the republicans very much, they remind me of Fine Gael in their ways and I don't like them very much either.

I feel sorry for america, you are getting a very raw deal. The only reason I would think the republicans in government would be a better bet is that they might look to stimulate the economy, I have not heard the same ideas from the democrat side. I don't think a lot of democrats are happy with their nomination.


Clinton vs Guiliani would have been a better choice.




After eight years they (Republicans) have decimated the economy. Bush depleted the National Surplus and has seen more firms move their businesses out of the country in his terms then ever in the short history of the U.S. IN the meantime he has bow downed to the energy, healthcare, financial and insurance industries to keep their profits skyrocketing to ensure the very wealthy maintain their wealth and tremendous tax breaks.

Although with his brilliant stimulus package of $600 for a single citizen or $1200 for a married couple you would think this would have worked wonders. In the meantime auto fuel went up 23%, food went up 12% (for transportation costs) and then you get taxed on your stimulus check- BRILLIANT.

Now we send billions of aide to the world while there is no health care for 37+% of the citizens, levees not finished in New Orleans, soldiers returning from war without the proper medical treatment or therapy stateside, infrastructure on the highways falling apart (MN bridge),  NO alternative energy sources being used in mass and an education system that is laughable.

Will the Democrats help or improve the U.S., I can not say for sure but they could not do worse after the eight years of W.

George Washington was not in favour of a party system in the infancy of the U.S. and now it is blatant why he felt that way.

A Unionist MLA was on the BBC News complaining about the Tyrone flag and how symbolism shouldn't be flown or displayed.























He was wearing a Norn Iron coat in the interview.

If the jacket was hanging on a clothesline it would of been a different story ;)

AZ,

Can you not do a waiver request system?

Have the team in last place have opportunity to grab a player first up to first place team getting last selection.
Have the waiver system in place all day Tuesday then on Wednesday open up pickups to the league as a first come first serve.

Seems it would be a fair system to aid lads who are behind due to injuries/bad draft

Almost like Juice, dragged two blocks by a car. Beat on the hands holding me till they let go first thing to hit the pavement was my head, then bounced off the street about 15 feet in the air into a building,Rolled back into the street. My buddies said I looked like a rag doll flowing thru the air. When I got to hospital my keys in my back pocket were grounded down so they couldnt be used and had the worst case of road rash from my shoulders to my ankles. It took the ER nurse about 2 hours to scrub the rocks and road out of my body. Doctor said I was the luckiest man he ever met after the police described what happened to me.

Jumped by 7 guys one night in Chicago, they used my head for soccer practice. My head was so swollen I would make Rocky (from Mask) look like a model. The doctors had to do a procedure on my head to relieve the swellen. Doctors told my parents they were not sure if I was going to make it. First time I ever saw my dad cry.

Good thing for a thick skull ;) ;)
