Well ... I did find this on Matt Hoffman ... http://twinsdaily.com/showthread.php/9653-Twins-Sign-Lefty-Reliever-Matt-Hoffman

Sorry ... you wrote such a good paragraph but this really made me laugh. 'Academic goobly-goop' ... such a great oxymoron. Or maybe it's not ...

Yeah ... which is why I said some feminists explore these <ahem> 'other areas' but those are not what feminism defines, imo. And yeah ... this is just bat**** crazy, imo, and extreme and makes me wonder just what her experiences in life has been to put her over the edge. But I think that about just about anyone waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out there on the fringes. (And I mean, way out there ... further than any of us! ) Again ... I don't think this should be equated to feminism, modern or otherwise, at all. It really negates the good that some have done in the name of equality.

I don't call that modern feminism ... I call that extremism. And, quite frankly, find it insulting you'd refer it to feminism at all, modern or otherwise. Feminism about equality for women. It's not about redefining their sexuality. Yes, some feminists do explore gender roles and sexuality, but that is really a separate exploration beyond seeking equality in the 'socio-economic-political' realms. At least in my opinion it is.

It won't be only 10 minutes in March. Guarantee that. But if you head up there again, try out the Farmer's Market restaurant ... southern cookin' at its best. Huge portions, inexpensive.

It's why I will never have one. Oh, wait ... maybe there's a better reason for that ...

Would they be at CoP Park, or at the training center? Because where the Red Sox used to train isn't the same as where they played games. Their training center is about 2 miles or so from the park.

Why are you guys getting all the 'fun' ads? Makes me wonder ...

Lol! I purposely did not comment on that because I didn't want to seem so predictable!

Lol ... that was awesome. Great thing to see first thing in 2014.

It would be a great story for sure if he could come back but I think the probabilities of Johan coming back are very, very small.

With my sister it was the opposite ... she was paid for 9 months but she could pro-rate her weekly pay in order to get a check all year round, i.e. the summer months are not paid time off.

Since this thread is no longer about Alex Meyer and about teachers it's being moved to 'The Sports Bar' for continuing discussion.

Man ... I wish I had a TV/game/media room, I'd totally get 4. It would be perfect! Maybe if I didn't have the piano ... okay, no, no way, piano is priority ... no chairs. Sigh. But not for not wanting them. Brock, you can tell her that this is from another female, if that has any sway.

Just reading that list made me a shed a tear.

Um, I think, after reading this entire thread, that the 'general tenor' thinks this was a good move. Yes, there are a few who didn't like this move, but the majority have weighed in positively, so I think your characterization is a bit off. As for me, I'm equally satisfied and think this was a good move.

Glad to see 'my guy' getting some good press. He was my favorite player last year.

I like all the shoe, furniture and home decor ads I see.

Man, wish I could go! Hope all who is there have a great time ... and hope someone chronicles the event well with photos and a write up!

Ack!!! That's awful! Lol ... I'm glad you tipped me off otherwise I would have stepped in it but good!

Ooou ... thanks! I'm going to do just that! hehehe ... and I have another colleague, with another orchestra, who is a Liverpool supporter; if he doesn't know that, I'll certainly tip him off as the two of them certainly try to give each other digs!

My colleague at work is a big Manchester fan. He refuses to acknowledge anyone in conversation who refers to football as soccer. And further, insists you say 'American football' for any NFL talk and always pretends to not understand the conversation until that clarification is made. Anyway ... that's about the extent of my soccer/football interest, other than my niece making the freshman team at school. I could be converted, though. Maybe.

It seems to come and go. Over all it is waaaay better than before Brock did some tweaking.

Good for Justin! I wish him all the best. I always hate seeing long-timers go, but such is the business and I hope he finds success again.
