What do you have against Chili's? I actually think it's one of the better chain restaurants.

Applebees, chili's and TGI Fridays are all really bad IMO.

Agree with Rax and their chocolate chip shakes. There may or may not still be Rax out there. Their web page is down which is not a good sign. I think there was a Rax over by Kennywood that hung around forever. That's the only one I ever remember. I feel like if you drove around the west mifflin, ce...

And looking at Harold Ramirez, he may be the perfect trade chip at the moment - batting over .400 but having meadows on track. Looks like an above average player but might not quite be a centerfielder and might not have enough power to be a big time star at a corner. I think OF and middle infield h...

I think it's time for everyone to admit that they miss Vinnie. He sucked, but Ron cook also really sucks, so he might have sucked less than it appeared.

Jurassic park was transcendent across genres and audiences. This seems like a straight action movie.
Computer graphics were also a new thing for movies. I don't understand what the draw could be for the new one, I mean the plot can't be any different...dinosaur theme park, then chaos ensues.

I'll take hart and Rodriguez over tabata. At least if one of those two run into one it's a run. If tabata runs into one it's a line drive single to right field

The bullpen looks really strong since Camineiro has established himself as a strong late inning option. Hughes is more of a specialist, he seems to struggle when starting an inning fresh and works better when coming in at a tough spot (very atypical it seems of most pitchers). So he should really be...

Lambo definitely sucks, but he's hurt and has nothing to do with hart's presence on the team.

I'm guessing that they don't want to add any do the scrubs in aaa on the 40 man so just ride it out for the time being with hart wasting a roster spot.

I would like to see jaff get a shot though

I also find that hypocritical...but i'm sure the excuse is public school, private company not the same or whatever.

I misread. thought the article said he wrote it on the school website.

Hundreds of thousands of people tweet politics everyday and don't get fired. I'm sure he was fired for doing something he wasn't supposed to do, not his particular opinion.

My spidey sense tells me that Walker will defeat Clinton. Predictions? At this point, my guess is that only Jeb or Rubio could beat Clinton. Walker is way too far to the right to win.

I offered to stand in for the season, knowing that I probably would get sucked back in full time. Now that I can actually communicate with you guys, it probably would make things 100x easier for me.

I think Bell can be ready at the super two cutoff next year, he's matching his breakout numbers from Bradenton last year..although it's tough to compare numbers with him. He's one of the leading hitters in the league and 2.5 years younger than the average age. Next year would be his age 23 year, I t...
