He's welcome to return whenever he wants to. He left voluntarily. Him and anyone else who "retired" will be welcome back with open arms.

Wake me when the alert level is blackwatch plaid.

Like you do.

Oh, I wasn't casting stones. I was right there with you guys. Of course, in the absence of any apparent real news regarding arrests and/or suspects, why not I guess?

(And how did this thread -- of all threads -- somehow get threadjacked by a shitty rock song?)

Nonsequitor and I apologize to Boston for noting this in its thread following a tragedy, but every time I get stuck in traffic on 95 I think, man, this is what Tom Cochrane thinks life is like. Yeah but why is he singing about it like it's awesome and he can't wait to do that all day? All night . S...

So, Boston PD says no arrest. What a fucking mess.

Now comes the hoping it isn't a Muslim because if it is I'm going to want to spend the next few weeks in a cave somewhere.

Arrest has been made, according to CNN. Hoping this isn't a Richard Jewell thing all over again though. I suspect the FBI learned their lesson after that....

Usually I'm not proven right that quickly.

I don't eat donuts and I don't drink coffee, so I haven't had it in years either. But they are expanding rapidly on the west coast like Keg said. Came to Las Vegas about three years ago and the first stores had lines out the door for weeks.

Saw Lucero in Phoenix on Monday and they were brilliant as always, but was very impressed by the performance by Langhorne Slim and the Law. I'm definitely going to try to see them again if I can. Just a great set.

Yeah, I'm not sure if some people really realize all of the tools at the FBI's disposal here. It's gonna take some time, but they'll track down these guys (this guy). They got lucky in Oklahoma City that McVeigh got pulled over for a traffic stop. Obviously the Richard Jewell fiasco slowed down the ...

Look, someone else can undo this, so it's not permanent, but at this point I think the best thing is to put an end to this thread. There are things that need to be worked out obviously and I think everyone wants to do that, but it's counter-productive to air dirty laundry in public. I want to be cle...

Like some of you, I had a lot of friends in the race. Gladly everyone and their loved ones are accounted for. Ironically, I'm not a good enough runner to qualify for Boston because the blast would have occurred about exactly when I finished. (My PR is 4:15). I'm so torn between anger and sadness and...

I may have to disagree with you there.

Whenever I travel in Europe (which is not at all recently) I always made it a point to try and NOT do what most of the other Americans were doing. Yelling in English at someone in Slovakia who speaks Slovak isn't going to make them understand English. Of course, like Scottie mentioned* the Brits wer...

I had forgotten about that until this morning. Not everyone is a fan.

I don't believe it was intentional, not given the count, the score. It wasn't even a head-hunting pitch; unlike the one we saw earlier in the game from a Padres pitcher. Quentin tied for the major league lead in HBPs in a season where he only played half a season. Charging the mound in that situati...

HODOR!

And even if he DID intentionally hit him, there's no excuse to rush the mound, especially in the NL.

Except intentionally hitting a guy who is 40 lbs heavier, where there is history between the two.

Also, "we'll see bitch" face.

I very much doubt he intentionally hit him with a 3-2 pitch in a 2-1 game.

Read those words above his name again.

From what I am hearing he'll be out 6 -8 weeks. There was another player (I forget the name) who broke his collarbone on 23 Feb and is due back in the beginning of May. Nice. Well, glad he's not out for the year. Hate to see anyone get injured, especially someone like Greinke who is a) easy to root...

Greinke's gotta be done for the season, no? Collarbone injuries take awhile to heal I thought, especially for a pitcher I'd have to imagine.

In all seriousness, I thought about deleting them, but it's a fine piece of performance art. If it happens again and I'm around I'll put a stop to it.

The only thing better than a bunch of idiot castoffs and overpaid moprons imploding is if you have money riding on said implosion.

Signed by the Lions today....

I know some of you don't believe me when I say that Michigan State fans are happier about Michigan losing than Michigan State winning, but this ought to put things in some perspective.

Prince Fielder's day today. Beat out what should have been a double-play grounder for an RBI, walk, walk, beat out an infield single.

Craziness.

He obviously didn't answer because he likes Asians.

If other people start thinking the way you do, then all of the sudden it's not historic any more.

Yeah, if the Lions take Ansah, I'm going to...well, probably sigh very deeply and shake my head. Mayhew loves DL, so they might very well end up taking him, then again Ansah is a little bit of a project and they're under heat to win now in Detroit, so I think he may go with the safer choice (Milline...

I would have totally studied economics/business and then stayed for grad school and gotten an MBA.

I'd take the pick. Yeah, maybe they can use it to move up to get Milliner or Jordan if they're in striking distance. Of course, they'll be in the market for a receiver too. Absolutely no reason to trade up for Milliner. Jordan I don't think is worth it either. Weak top of the draft. They can probab...

clap clap Mr. D is apparently as bad at reading comprehension as he is at humor. If I would have said all Oaklanders were poor and dirty, then there would have been an equivalence. I can laugh at a good joke at Detroit's expense as referenced in the thread regarding the changes to the bullpen phone...

It would be kind of cool if you could take the L from O'Hare to Oakland in only six or seven stops, though.

You sure about that? Ever been to Oakland?

If the second half is anything like the first probably the best NCAA title game in history.

He was able to get the same handle on Twitter (dougekurugby), but be prepared to be disappointed.
