Can't be more predictable than yankees.
Enh, at least some good came out of it. Eventually.
If Hardy can find his form from two years ago it will be a fantastic trade. Go-go was at best a defensive center fielder. If he could have learne...
I agree. The Yankees are boringly predictable.
This is why the Twins are the Twins and the Yankees are the Yankees. Let's see, should we go for Hardy or Teixera? Hmmm.
I tink peraps it is te curc of Crist, Marybet414.
If I can c(h)ime in...I left the 'H' behind years ago and indeed there is no better way. The church of Crist... Bless you all.
I like the guy, but I have to admit he was a bit disappointing.
Just about every time we went to a game at the dome, you'd hear "fans" (quote marks emphasized) trashing GoGo loudly, which made me want to stand ...

Should this surprise anyone nowadays? Especially after recent reports of Twin Cities Somali youth going back to Somalia? Besides, similar detainments happen elsewhere, too:

Reading the Star Tribune comments section is a good way to lose all hope for mankind in a short amount of time.

I lost hope for humanity a long time ago. The vast majority of people are selfish moronic nincompoops.

There aren’t any comments that I could find.
Did you tattle on somebody, Kurtis?
11:43 am
I’m no tattletale. Max, Rat called me a tattletale!
11:47 am
Don’t call names, Rat.

Don’t make me turn the internet around, you two.

[Deleted for containing hateful epithets.]

I can’t tell if Frank Fusco (not verified) was deleted by Max or if he wrote the comment meaning that the Strib deleted the comments due to hateful epithets.
3:13 pm
I deleted Frank’s comment.
3:14 pm
Why are the comments so small?
3:18 pm

3:23 pm
Cue the censorship shit fit…

Well, in case anybody wants to go there, the rules for commenting here are posted. I moderate with a light hand, but I have zero tolerance for hate language, and it will be deleted as soon as I see it.

Yep IE 6.0.2900.2180 No other choice here at work.
3:32 pm
Fixed!
3:33 pm
Glad to hear it!
I promise that I’ll run my changes through IE6 before I make them from now on. I keep thinking I remember all the quirks, but then I clearly don’t. :S
3:35 pm
Not a huge deal. I use Chrome mostly at home or Firefox 3.0.
3:39 pm
Also, can you add religion to the hate speech guideline?

Yep IE 6.0.2900.2180 No other choice here at work.
That’s sad.
