  1. Why? Because it kills you first? :') Okay, I kid ...
  2. I think I get it now ... you mean like how when Torii homers/robs homers we post videos of Kirby Puckett?
  3. Tsk tsk, TN. You are SO behind the times! http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/9-23-2015/29Uayd.gif
  4. I can think of no other reason that keeps me coming back here and reading more.
  5. Hockey's back. Jets-Wild preseason tonight. Go Wild!!!
  6. Apparently even Hunter and Dozier's wives want to be just like them ... what is this world coming to? https://instagram.com/p/73rSUPqzJW/​
  7. It was still a ridiculous analogy. And while I'm no proponent of the legalization of marijuana, you really have to consider the practicality of the situation. Smoking tobacco and drinking are both perfectly legal (under certain situations, I should clarify), but marijuana, which allegedly is no worse, is not. Given time, it will inevitably all balance out; tobacco, alcohol, caffeine, sugar ... you name it ... will all be prohibited, or marijuana will be legalized. What do you suppose is the most likely (and practical) outcome? Heroin and cocaine present a completely different scenario. My main concern when it comes to the legalization of marijuana is that those will be next on the list. But again, my personal opinion is that drug users ​are proceeding at their own risks. I'm not saying I support it - quite the opposite. What I'm saying is that maybe we should forget about being so hard on the users and focus more on the dealers. Drugs are really a non-violent crime, and the person you hurt the most by using them is yourself. (I know there are arguments against that, but if you take that stance, you have to add that drinking an alcoholic beverage is ​committing a violent crime.) Drug dealers ... different story. All they care about is making a king's ransom off of the demise of others. Heroin and cocaine should never be legalized ... but punishing the users? What they really need is therapy. Fining/jailing isn't going to "help" anyone overcome an addiction.
  8. Yes, but we would have lost by one in the 9th if he hadn't homered earlier on.
  9. Stadium. Fields are for Packers.
  10. "Excuse my friend ... he's a little slow" ??
  11. What happened? Escie singled and Torii went to third, forcing Sano to go home and be thrown out by Mr. Good at Baseball? Shouldn't you blame Glynn for sending the runners? (Forgive my ignorance; I missed the play.)
  12. Well, now that Torii's given us the lead and Duffey's on the mound, hopefully we can extend that streak.
  13. I would disagree. There are plenty of *dumb* republicans (you couldn't call them anything else) who adore Trump. For some reason they've allowed themselves to be brainwashed by his BS ... they like him because they think he'll accomplish something. Regardless of your opinion of me, I am a conservative; however, I'm not so sure I want to classify myself as either "republican" or "democrat." And, saying that, these fans of Trump are much, much more conservative than I am. So yeah, I'm forced to disagree with you ... voting for Trump wouldn't make me a democrat. It would only make me a dumb republican. And Sanders? I thought voting for him would make you a socialist. By the way, my original intent in entering this discussion was not to bicker about what defines someone as a republican or democrat. I was merely trying to point out the absurdity in bantering on that subject. You're hijacking the thread. If you respond to this post to further the argument, I'm not going to reply. We're discussing term limits, not whether certain TD members are republican or democrat (ultimately coming to the conclusion that if you're a republican you're in the right and if you're a democrat you're in the wrong). And one final thought before exiting the conversation: not voting for Trump doesn't make you a smart republican.
  14. Coming from a conservative: does it matter? No. Don't ask. Personally, I would vote for Sanders over Trump. Does that make me a democrat? No.
  15. To the pain. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JZ27DhFHv6k/Tu1V6HEwyQI/AAAAAAAAKJY/8nEAw6wFiO4/s1600/images-Cary-Elwes.jpg
  16. Well, I always thought that arithmetic was the process of computation with numbers, and I'm not sure what else that involved. This, on the other hand, is simply logic and nothing else ... I think. If all Bloops are Razzies and all Razzies are Lazzies, are all Bloops definitely Lazzies? edit -- I'd love to hear Chief answer that one.
  17. That, my friend, is a simple matter of arithmetic.
  18. Wow, everyone's ranting because Joe Mauer doesn't lift weights until he looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Why not start a thread called "Mauer needs to juice up"?
  19. Live rugby no more

  20. Well thank you ... but it's not like I said "See? Minne=Mini, Sota=Soda." I didn't think I was being that bad.
  21. Chief still around? This is lame ... oh, so lame. The worst thing about it is that in Minnesota, we call it POP.
