- I've been reading more and more articles about the *miracles* Dave Duncan works. - musubi Apr 29, 12:17 6
  - I think Duncan has a lot to do with WHO they bring in as projects...... - groiny Apr 29, 12:19 5
    - Could be, but if you look at the guys they did bring in recently, it'd be hard to find a pattern. - musubi Apr 29, 12:23 2
      - he clearly "sees" something. - groiny Apr 29, 12:24 1
        
        Yeah, I'm agreeing with you. I'm saying he sees what others don't. - musubi Apr 29, 12:31

Repost: I wish Flash went away for a more efficient standard, so I'll get behind apple in this. - celedhring Apr 29, 12:08 2
- It's definitely LOL-status. Myself, I plan on just watching from the sidelines as an uninvolved observer ... -- nm - Beryllium Apr 29, 12:11
- I can be more efficient! Don't send me away :) -- nm - Flash Apr 29, 12:10
If Steve Jobs doesn't like Flash because it crashes Macs, could he kill iTunes because it crashes PCs? -- nm - Mop (222 lbs) Apr 29, 12:07 1
- He also criticised the technology for being only under the control of Adobe. - Danedukenuuk Apr 29, 12:08

  - *single tear down the cheek* (nm) - Jason Heyward Apr 29, 12:05 3
    - [deleted] 2
      - Jason Heyward is carefully orchestrating a devious trap to make his opponents overconfident before smiting them with a single blow. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 12:10 1
        
        his OBP is still .130 higher than his Batting Average... - groiny Apr 29, 12:11

        Half of that was getting Mike Jacobs out of the lineup. Dude is simply not a major league hitter. - musubi Apr 29, 12:15 2
        
        crazy power on that guy, but he makes Dunn look like Ty Cobb. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 12:16 1
        
        Power is good for sh**, if you can't make solid contact with the ball. - musubi Apr 29, 12:18
      - admittingly, I do not know much about him. - groiny Apr 29, 12:07 2
        
        Hitting wise, yeah, but he's got a nice glove at first (and a rocket arm in the OF). - musubi Apr 29, 12:12
