ESPN says both Smoltz and Baldelli are on the verge of signing with Boston. - TFox Jan 7, 20:48 14
- Seriously, I will not believe Smoltz signs with any other team until he's wearing their jersey at the press conference. -- nm - David Jan 7, 20:48 13
  - $5.5M with another $5M in incentives is big money for a guy who threw less than 30 innings last year. -- nm - TFox Jan 7, 20:50 12
    - He doesn't need money, but the Braves would give him whatever he wanted. It's the reverse-Furcal. -- nm - David Jan 7, 20:51 11
      - My good friend here, Braves fan, is losing his mind. He'll be at Fenway weekly in June. -- nm - TFox Jan 7, 20:53 9
        
        Actually, both Bowman and DOB seem to think this story is true. - David Jan 7, 20:54 8
        
        If true, its a smart signing after giving a spot to Brad Penny. - TFox Jan 7, 20:57 7
        
        This kills us in free agency if true. How are we going to get guys to sign here if even Smoltz is jumping ship? -- nm - David Jan 7, 20:59 6
        
        Will it help or hurt if they sign Kawakami to 2-3 years at $12M+ per? - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 21:23 3
        
        Losing Smoltz automatically drops attendance by 5% imo. -- nm - David Jan 7, 21:25 2
        
        I agree with that. I wondered if it would be even worse passing on him for Kawakami. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 21:30 1
        
        The strangest part is that their fans know they have $35 million left to spend. -- nm - David Jan 7, 21:36
        
        There's lots of decent pitching still out there. Hell, go get our future HOF free agent. :) - TFox Jan 7, 21:03 1
        
        I don't know what's going on with Dunn and Lowe, but I am quickly losing confidence in Wren. -- nm - David Jan 7, 21:03
      - They can't give him another ring though. -- nm - Redmond Jan 7, 20:52
oh!!!! Forgot... I saw CORLN (Coraline) earlier... it's very different in tone and feel than the Gaiman book IMO - secretslacker Jan 7, 20:47 2
- I assume I'm waiting until closer to the release date to short it. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 20:49 1
  - It's mainly for kids... but yeah, seems a bit pricey for what it is. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 20:59

from b2: Twitter is the lazy man's blog and as fractionally interesting to read. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 20:41 15
- I just went "B" crazy on Twitter...CRAZY! -- nm - amoxy Jan 7, 20:52
- on the other hand, it's much easier to see trends. -- nm - loosilu Jan 7, 20:46
- blogs are too long and too egocentric -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 20:44 12
  - Nothing is more egocentric then the concept that people are fascinated by what you do every waking minute of every day and feel like Twittering it. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 20:47 11
    - And for more opinions like this, remember to add @qale to your Twitter feed! -- nm - David Jan 7, 21:00 2
      - I'm just pissed I haven't figured out how to post anime penes via SMS text to Twitter. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 21:03 1

    - *twitters about cleaning cat litter* -- nm - Beryllium Jan 7, 20:57 1
      - Yeah, don't do that. -- nm - David Jan 7, 21:04
    - I've never twittered or seen it, so what do I know. -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 20:50 4
      - it's like what some people do here sometimes, sharing what they're currently doing/thoughts that pass through their heads/etc., only each page is for - b! Jan 7, 21:12
      - Well I certainly respect with Evan Williams was trying to do. He's as big of a "name" as one Blogger can be. But it's just... too much. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 20:58 2
        
        I limit myself to one facebook status update every 24 hours or so... -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 21:00 1
        
        I love/hate Facebook. -- nm - Qale Jan 7, 21:02
Oh wow. My neighbor was just on the news talking about the potential flood danger. - Redmond Jan 7, 20:40 11
- Was he wearing flood pants? -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 20:48
- Did the newspaper reporter mention your filty dalliance with said neighbor? -- nm - David Jan 7, 20:45 6
  - No but he posted it on my Facebook page. -- nm - Redmond Jan 7, 20:46 5
    - Unfriend him then blow the shit out of that Forest dude to make yourself feel better. -- nm - David Jan 7, 20:48 4
      - that sounds like a possible hate crime, you could be an asessory. -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 21:04
      - I'm still laughing at this. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 7, 20:55 2
        
        Yeah, I admit it was pretty funny. -- nm - Redmond Jan 7, 21:02 1
        
        and let me guess you didn't unfriend him? -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 21:22

I didn't accomplish any of the stuff I needed to get done tonight... and too tired to do any more work -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 20:36 4
- Is this going to be another status update on facebook? -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 20:40 2
  - Nah... anything not Facebook/Twitter worthy gets posted here :) -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 20:46 1

    - Don't start on Guy's boots...You owe me a few drinks for taking them -- nm - amoxy Jan 7, 20:43
- That's why you should always wear a condom. - Cuzzin Todd Jan 7, 20:39

    - Re: You can be a funnybone marrow donor if you want to try to save him. - loosilu Jan 7, 20:38 1
