My rap talk never goes anywhere here but Beanie Sigel shot. That blows. Only a matter of time though. Guess he won't be at TLA on the 18th.
if it wasn't done by a white cop is he not be one of the black lives that matter? no snitching so i'm guessing they don't find the guy who shot him either. #itjustdoesntmatter

I am not getting into that here, but I think I read the other guy who got shot said "i didn't see nothin'" hhah.
Beanie is alive, awake and smiling. I know you all were very concerned.

yes very concerned. we can't afford to lose another rapper that no one has heard of except when he is in the news for criminal activity.

isn't it a little suspect that all the big boys were out of this sweepstakes? seems like there has to be a reason for that. 6 for $68 million is really not all that much. per year we gave Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez more.
remember when you used to say you didn't care how much philly teams paid players? weird that you care now
i don't care what they pay and you totally missed my point. the point i was making was maybe Tomas wasn't nearly as good as people originally thought he was whey they were saying he would get a $100 million. big difference from original estimates of $100 million to end up with 'only' 68 million.
after the ryan howard contract, you deliberately said that you didn't care how much guys were paid, you 'just wanted to win'. or some kind of caveman, 610 shit to that extent. I'm not looking back through the embarrassment that is the history of the ryan howard/phillie spending debacle of a thread. If I were you I would quit while I was ahead. (thank god I'm not you so I'm here to tell you how wrong you were...which is about as wrong as anyone has ever been about anything)
while that is obviously great news, flip side to the coin is median income has dropped to lowest levels in 20 years....so the people going back to work aren't making near what they were when they lost their jobs and are still struggling to keep their homes and stuff. so, not out of the woods quite yet.

one positive thing we will get to see how easy it really is to hit 25-35 home runs and knock in 100 runs every year. can't wait to see Ruf or Franco do that for 5-7 straight years. even if i was wrong at least i'm here still and didn't run and hide like you have. good to see you abandon the eagles and flyers threads after being so thoroughly wrong in both (sproles trade was a bad trade, backup qbs don't matter, jeff carter, you love where the flyers organization is/was...funny stuff). wouldn't expect anything different though. that's what gutless people who have high opinions of themselves do. always a pleasure when you make an appearance though.

Yes. It's called the worst recession since the depression combined with a capitalist corporate environment where the incentive is the rich get richer. Of course the gap will continue to grow - it's in the math.

i know. but i feel like this is under reported in comparison to the record job growth numbers that we hear about every month. people wonder why his approval numbers are so low and why the dems got crushed last month. it's directly because people have less money than they had before. now the fact that so many of those people think obama is the one who got us into this mess in the first place is a whole other level of stupidity though.

go. phillies.
And this is exactly what I'm getting at -
1) People only care about what directly effects them in the here and now. This is why I am a communist
2) People like blood sausage, too. People are morons. Bonus points if you get the movie.

haha. no bonus points for me. no idea what that's from.....i mean, on a certain level, I can understand people disliking the current admin if they are still struggling to feed their families and stuff, all these years later. gotta be made at someone, makes sense for it to be the person/people currently in charge. I think that is natural. but it's those who think the problem started in January of 2009---yeah, they're a bunch of fucking idiots. and, unfortunately, I end up having to speak with them on a daily basis at work.

That would be one, "Groundhog Day."
At any rate, the point is people are too stupid to realize it's not because of just one person or entity. We could go on and on and I/we could tie the web together of how one thing lead to another.
Major corporations are FLUSH with cash, and have been for some time. Companies are just scared of losing their billions and billions and billions. It's sickening.
The problem is - and I've seen it directly up close with my parents - is that at some point you become older and will never attain the earnings you once made. I'd even lump myself in there - with going back to school, starting a new career, yada. But it is what it is.
But, yes, the unemployment number is like any other stat they put out there - it can be argued by either "side." Of course there's the omission of those who straight dropped out of the labor force. But again, nonetheless, 5.8% is 5.8%, and that's a long ways from the over 10% it was 5 years ago.
But, honestly, at the end of the day, the economy is doing much better than it was at it's worst 5 years ago. Things take time, and people don't like waiting.
We got a looooong way to go baseball-wise. Might as well talk about something else.

On a completely unrelated note - looks like the Phils might actually move Bastardo for Sean Coyle from Boston. I like it. Now do it.
