  1. Lol, they showed that video again.
  2. Buy some lobster bisque. No matter the brand, it's kind of too thick and rich so add some water or skim milk to it.
  3. You can. Just unlike it then like it again. Happy to help.
  4. I hope Brian isn't in any immediate danger being a Twins' fan in Tigers' territory!
  5. Yup … and Suzuki, too, was at 0-2 and ended up on base with a hbp.
  6. Yeah … certainly not as fun. The Tigers broadcast team actually gave props to the Twins and seemed just as excited by the Dozier home run. But, watching the Tigers broadcast unearthed this little prank on Hunter. This clip didn't catch the end showing Hunter literally on the ground laughing … and of course, hugged it out all out in the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3b5eNth10Y
  7. It all depends on where the teams are at at the end of the season. If L.A. is out of it and the Twins are in it … Trout shouldn't get the same consideration, imo. We have a long way to go for this discussion. But it's fun thinking about.
  8. Ooou … I know what I'm going to watch again … the 9th inning of the Tigers broadcast. Mwahahaha …
  9. Just watched the 8th and 9th innings again. THAT. WAS. FUN!
  10. I know that Pseudo asked for some female perspective, but I'm wary to put a toe in the water. I haven't read everything about this particular issue of how universities are 'prosecuting' these cases; nor have a thoroughly read this thread. While I'm not sure this is the best way to go about this, I think it's something to try. My feeling on the legal system in general as it pertains to rape, does not stand on the side of the victim, ever. The legal system as it currently is, as it pertains to rape, sets up the victim to be a victim all over again. Innocent until proven guilty, beyond a reasonable doubt. Reasonable doubt. Bad for rape cases. All any defense has to do is attack the character of the victim … he/she was stupid, he/she was dressed inappropriately, he/she was drunk, he/she is promiscuous, he/she is responsible for putting her/himself in such a position in the first place. It's really quite despicable when you think about it. The victim is responsible for being raped. And juries buy it. Hell, society buys it. Think about it. Being drunk is not an invitation to be taken advantage. Dressing provocatively is not asking for it. Being physically involved with someone is not permission for intercourse. So if this law puts the onus of responsibility on the rapist, then, good, it should, in my opinion. Oh, and to be clear, I don't put 'degrees' on rape. Whether it's someone who is a rapist by nature or nurture, it's still rape when there is no consent or ability to consent. Yes, there are cases when an individual falsely accuses. While, unfortunately, I wouldn't call it rare, I wouldn't call it anywhere close in numbers to actualities of rape cases. There have been a couple of well-publicized instances of false accusation, and it's despicable and I think there should be very stiff penalties for that. All it does is give someone ammunition to say 'I know someone who did that, it happens all the time' when the number of rape cases far, far, far, far exceeds false accusations. And my personal opinion on rape in general … I'd rather be murdered than raped. Thank God neither has happened to me, but I know enough to know that would be my choice. Rape is that despicable. Please don't attempt to argue or debate this with me. It's not something I want to debate with any of you. I've given you an opinion … asked for … and I'm done. You can debate theory and due process and precedence all you want, but don't forget the subject or the victims in this.
  11. Moderator note: THIS times 1000. We've heard enough on this. Either start a new thread to discuss the Burdi issue specifically or move on. This is a TRANSACTIONS thread and not a 'How the coaching staff is mismanaging Burdi' thread. So, move along.
  12. But in Suzuki's case, would you rather have one out or two, or an out without the runner advancing? I think not bunting you have a higher likelihood or Zukes hitting a short fly, pop up or into a DP.
  13. Chief is at the game. I'm sure he knows.
  14. You probably heard me a couple hours ago in the car. Took me 2 hrs to get home from work tonight.
  15. I have tomorrow and Saturday off from work ... ahhhh
