What is it about people who have all the talent in the world being such dumb asses? I knew a guy in high school like that, ended up throwing away a full ride scholarship for swimming on some DUI bullshit.

Say what? Are you referring to what ih8music posted? There is a little button on the bottom right of a post. Kindly use it so we know what the f you are talking about. BTW ih8music that was indeed spot on.

Surprised this had not been mentioned earlier. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/andrew-breitbart-dead-blogger-dies_n_1312944.html I personally found him a morally repugnant human being, and I will not shed a tear or loose sleep over his death. However my condolences go out to his family, especially his four children.

I know it is mean, but it is the first thing I thought of when I read and saw it. I like AJ, as a baseball fan I hope there is no serious damage, as a Cubs fan I hope he ends up on the DL.

awesome thanks for the heads up. Here is the direct link for those who are interested. Andrew Bird - Break it Yourself - NPR stream Going to see him in Milwaukee at the end of the month. Taking my 7 year old who just started playing Violin.

Can someone explain what is appealing about Santorum? The last few bits I have heard from him, make him sound very hateful, bigoted, and ignorant. Also if the economy is so bad why are the opposition party so focused on social issues all of sudden. If any candidate runs on social issues against Obama, they are gonna lose. Economic they have a fighting chance?

Who is Paul McCartney?

You know me too. Ok, the sample was mishandled, I am no doctor but I am pretty sure pee sitting around a guys house does not increase in levels of testosterone. So I think what Braun is saying is someone broke into this guys house and dumped testosterone into his sample to get him banned? Seems hard to believe to me.

I want to believe that he has never taken PEDs, I really do. From all accounts he is a great player, teammate, and person, however I cannot. I think this has more to say about the nature of the baseball era we are coming out of (still in?) then Braun as a person. If I hadn't heard Palmaro lie, McGuire refuse to talk, Sosa forget the English language, A-Rod shown as a cheater, and Manny being Manny, I would be inclined to believe him, but I can't. That to me is what is sad.

But will the Herpes defense be proven by anything else, independent Doctor or something? Hell he can say he has herpes but does that really mean anything?

I don't know if exonerated is the right word. He did not receive a suspension due to a technicality. He was not found innocent of taking PEDs. It is like a murder found not guilty because of DNA and blood evidence being mishandled by technicians. Wonders if Braun will spend the rest of his days looking for the "real PEDs" on the golf course.

4 years, all we will have to wait is another 4 years. For this year I am excited about the prospect of LaHair at first, and seeing what Castro can do this year. Also Geo looks to be the leader in the clubhouse now. Hopefully he can step up to that challenge. This season will have its ups and downs for sure, but it will be fun to watch a team being built. As for the Marlins, it is gonna be a train wreck, it just will.

That is f'ing brilliant.

Nice to have another Who fan on board.

I can only assume that Lake Monster is just on his jersey.

Ron Paul, ain't gonna be the nominee, just is not gonna happen. If he does run as a third party (which I doubt he will) he won't win. All of the youtube videos, impassioned postings are nice but it won't affect the outcome. Mitt Romney will be the Republican nominee and he will lose to Obama. Or political system is broken, beyond repair, money drives politics, there is nothing one person can do about. It is a shame. I would love a third party but the population at a whole will not stand for it. And when a third party gets in the person that actaully does win is generally far from the

maybe I am not explaining myself properly. My idea is hypothetical in nature. I am not talking about the current state of affairs. I am talking about my future utopia, in which the government is completely out of marriage, and the church is completely out of a couples legal standing with the government.

that is very big of you

Kinda my point. The state should be able to issue contracts between two consenting adults, giving them insurance coverage, survivor benefits, and whatnot. These adults could be man/woman, man/man, woman/woman. Take love/sex completely out of the equation. In my world two roommates could enter in to this contract. Marriage on the other hand would have no legal standing. It is a profession of love and commitment, between two people, a church or whatever has the right to perform their ceremony to whomever they choose. Marriage is essentially a religious function the states should not b

Ok I'll admit that was pretty cool. I have a soft spot for Brit Rock in the late 60's early 70's (Atomic Rooster, T. Rex, Thin Lizzy, etc), so how did they become the masters of suckatude in less than 10 years?

I am sorry, I am familiar with that song and it is a terrible song. I can't express in words my hatred for this band and this song. I don't want to rain on anyone's parade who loves Fleetwood Mac, I hate it when people tell me bands I like suck, but in my opinion Fleetwood Mac is terrible. I cast no dispersions on those who like Fleetwood Mac, but they just ain't my cup of tea. Now if we are going cast dispersions on anyone let's start with Jam Band fans.

Yes, yes I do. Maybe because of the Fleetwood Mac I first heard was the cheese ball Stevie Nicks version, all of it is like nails on a chalkboard. I guess that is why it is called Musical Blindspot.

I effin' hate Steely Dan and Fleetwood Mac for that matter too.

for me I have musical blind spots for Bruce Springteen M. Ward Sufjan Stevens and to some extent Bob Dylan, but I may be coming around. I just can't get these guys

I always thought it was odd the government was in the business of marriage in the first place. Marriage is a religious function, it should remain that way. If someone wants to enter in a contract with another person that should be the government's responsibility.
