arod has been hit by 3 pitches in less than 10 innings -- nm - Truman Nov 1, 17:28 3
- judging by the slow speed of the pitch and the lack of follow-through in the motion, I'd say the pitcher did intend for the ball to go there. -- nm - Max Nov 1, 17:35
- that'd cancel most insurance policies -- nm - peglegpete Nov 1, 17:33
- He shoudl get given a consolation home run, and the pitch ejected its gettign silly -- nm - Karl_S Nov 1, 17:29

- Don't blame us if you were born without a soul. -- nm - Redmond "Go Ducks!" Nov 1, 17:51
- The trailer left me pretty cold on it. Visually it looks cool, but I need more than that to make me want to see it. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 1, 17:44 1
  - like Dogs with Bees in Their Mouths so When They Bark They Shoot Bees at You? - big time shamu Nov 1, 17:51

  - you're on crack - big time shamu Nov 1, 17:18

Oh shit! O. Daniels TE for Houston out for the year with an ACL tear. - Redmond "Go Ducks!" Nov 1, 16:55 9
- Yup, hurts me in one of my money leagues too, and the only "good" replacement choices available are J Finley and Boss. - Stephen Nov 1, 17:08 1
  - Boss was the only guy Manning threw to all day wasn;t he? -- nm - Beaker Nov 1, 18:13
- Oh shit! RTFBB. -- nm - nubby Nov 1, 16:56 1
  - Oh shit! I'm almost out of black cherry Smirnoff's! -- nm - mara Nov 1, 16:58
- If your TE is the lynchpin of your team, you have larger problems than him being out. -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 16:56 4
  - It's not, but he's a stud!! I have the best team in one league. - Redmond "Go Ducks!" Nov 1, 16:59 3
    - Trading for a TE, unless it`s Tony G or AntGates or the like, is only slightly smarter than trading for a kicker. -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 17:01 2
      - He's had 5 TDs this year, in my TD heavy league that's huge. -- nm - Stephen Nov 1, 17:09
      - He's had that type of season thus far. -- nm - David Nov 1, 17:08
Dealing with people one at a time and waiting for them to get back to me is annoying. Should I just make it a race? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:49

- Pink dollars haven't become as devalued as regular ones? -- nm - Qale v2.0 Nov 1, 17:56
- It's probably not considered a deterrant to most and may be considered a plus to some. -- nm - Dano Nov 1, 17:00
- more descriptors allow searchers to narrow their field to possibilites that suit them the most. -- nm - Max Nov 1, 16:53
- Why do those Christian-owned businesses always put Jesus fishes in their ads? -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 16:52 3
  - True. I guess I view that as looking for someone with similar values, not warning off those who might disagree with them. -- nm - MojaveMeg Nov 1, 16:54 2
    - as below - who says it's a warning? -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 16:59 1
      - Yes, I guess I'd also considered that. Wonder how they'd react to a semi-retired old lady? :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Nov 1, 17:08
- *puts a Jesus fish in an ad* -- nm - nubby Nov 1, 16:51
- No close-minded persons need apply. -- nm - Pilgrim Mop Nov 1, 16:50
- Perhaps they are looking to keep homophobes out of the picture. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:48 6
  - Probably so. I guess I find it funny(peculiar) that they're not allowed to discriminate in their hiring, but they're afraid of potential - MojaveMeg Nov 1, 16:52 5
    - I think you have it backwards. They're likely attempting to be welcoming to gay applicants. -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 16:54 4
      - But wouldn't that potentially lead to sexual harrasment charges? :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:55 3
        
        I'm not even beginning to see where that makes sense. -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 16:57 2
        
        gay men can't control their sexual urges. duh. -- nm - mafic Nov 1, 17:00 1
        
        *splurt* -- nm - Dano Nov 1, 17:03

  - The Leelo one on page 3 is pretty nice as well! -- nm - Stephen Nov 1, 17:25
- The highlight of my night was surely the 4 girls who came wearing matching Supergirl costumes, but they sure as hell weren't wearing this. -- (link) - Pilgrim Mop Nov 1, 16:43 [Image] 2
  - I'm actually having trouble finding a picture of the Supergirl outfit they all wore. It's the white top with the bare midriff and hotpants. Homebrew? -- nm - Pilgrim Mop Nov 1, 16:48 1

    - Do you have photos on it? -- nm - lileve Nov 1, 16:49 4
      - yes -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:49 3
        
        Hrm... tough market right now. Maybe try having an open house next weekend. -- nm - lileve Nov 1, 16:50 2
        
        uh. I'm selling a TV, not a house. :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:52 1
        
        Oh ok. Missed that completely. -- nm - lileve Nov 1, 17:08
    - take it to Goodwill -- nm - Remlik Nov 1, 16:45 1
      - That involves carrying it down stairs (well, at least down the elevator, which is working now) and cramming it into the car -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 16:46

- Link -- (link) - Will Hunting Nov 1, 16:12 6
  - This is not going to end well for the GOP. -- nm - Pilgrim Mop Nov 1, 16:14 5
    - I think we're gonna see the centrists Republicans attacked. -- nm - Remlik Nov 1, 16:20 4
      - Yup. They're having a witch hunt inside the party and chasing out anyone who isn't conservative enough. The end result, though... - Pilgrim Mop Nov 1, 16:26
      - Every "moderate" Republican rep will get a primary from a teabagger. -- nm - Tim Nov 1, 16:25 2
        
        Remlik is gonna teabag every republican ? - eag Nov 1, 16:26 1
