Coffee and TV

That's Puerto Rico you ass.

Both, but I'm afraid staph infections aren't generally something as avoidable as gay sex.

I knew I set myself up, but in all seriousness I don't like these things at all.

Ok I've never had any gay sex, but staph infections scare the hell out of me. Hell, I've only had one heterosexual partner (my wife) for the last 5 years, and I still got 2 staph infections in 2007. We've cleaned our house top to bottom and done everything but burn the sheets, but I get them for some reason. Trust me, they are no fun.

I generally think its ok to root for whatever you feel like, no matter their association with your home town. With 4 ESPN channels and constant coverage of all teams coast-to-coast, its common for many people to fall in love with one particular style, or players on a team. I do think however, that you can't get upset when your loyalty is called into question if you support a bandwagon team. Its natural to be accused of that considering there is so much of it in the sports world. As for me I don't necessarily go by the rule of supporting your home town. I have no beef with Dallas, but if a job and wife approval allowed, I'd be someplace else. I generally root for teams whose style I like, or the city they're from. I grew up a Rangers fan because of my family, but as I got older and learned more about baseball I realized the DH rule is stupid as hell. I hate the city, but love the stadium, the players, and the fans of the Astros. I also like the Padres for the same reasons, although I love the city of San Diego. I'm an FC Dallas fan notsomuch because I'm a Dallas fan, but because I've watched this team grow through so much. I remember the highlight of my summer vacation sophomore and junior year was that my small-town parents allowed me to drive to the inner-city Cotton Bowl and use what little cash I had on tickets and food. I remember the 'festive' side of the Cotton Bowl and the lively Latino crowds, and realizing that unlike most American sports, soccer is too short for sitting on your hands the whole match. I don't care much for the NFL, but I root for my two favorite cities: San Diego and Seattle. I couldn't care much for basketball, and with hockey I've never gotten attached to a team, so I have like 4 that I sort of pull for.

I see.

I know you were being sarcastic, therefore your post appears to make light of anyone who would say "why is he going to coach high school". Do I have that much right?

I think you missed the point...

I just KNEW there was going to bed a thread about this when I saw Late Night on Thursday. I'm not a Howard Ditto-head, but I enjoy his show. I thought it was pretty entertaining tv; he and Dave have great chemistry.

I'm glad you used his full name to promote fear-mongering. You are what's wrong with this country. Besides, your boy Fred will drop out after his 3% showing in New Hampshire tomorrow night, so you might want to start looking for another candidate.

How in the hell did you come up with that connection? That's not even close. If anything its an argument for government-provided services rather than just allowing highest-bidder privatization of these services.

You answered your own question.

You're helpless if you believe any of those 3. Please quit listening to that fat sac of crap Limbaugh and try thinking once in your life.

I'm glad Nixon never got elected then. oh wait...

I'll accept any apologies in the form of cash, paypal, or money order. Thanks.

Its Miami, they have no fan support in anything but maybe the Dolphins.

Funny, seeing as how those advocating the killer's side are seeing it pretty black and white that "they're dead criminals", and don't seem to differentiate between them and murderers.

That will be year 3 of "Dodge's recruits". 2008: 4-8, 5-7 2009: 6-6, 7-5 2010: 8-4, 9-3

To beat the #1 team with walk-ons is an accomplishment in and of itself.

That's why they play in Frisco, because they got such a sweet deal on the land. Not to mention a little help from Frisco ISD. Is there any reason why we couldn't do the same with Denton ISD? What stadium do the two high schools currently play in? Couldn't we get DISD to chip in $15 mil and allow them to use our field on Thursdays and Fridays?

They are top notch, no doubt. I've played on them as well. But like you said, $10 mil is a lot closer estimate than $40 mil. You take those fields out and just leave the parking lots and its still a $90 mil 20,500 capacity stadium.

Not much at all. Pizza Hut Park is built for soccer/concerts with a 20,500 capacity. It cost about $100 mil. Of course they do have the numerous playing fields that do surround it, but they aren't anything fancy.

The year 2010. Patience people, patience.

Thanks for reinforcing why I have you on my ignore list.

Some day geological activity will give us Arizona oceanfront property, and then what metaphor will you people use?
