Probably because Democrats are too tired from working the two jobs they had to take to replace the one that got outsourced. Who knew that Marv Albert was a Republican.

Moore has offered to allow Sinclair Broadcasting, who has ordered its stations to air an anti-Kerry show, to broadcast Farenheit 9/11 for free, which will allow them to prove that they are as objective as they claim to be. You can't get the price much lower than free.

Whichever defense scores the most points will win. -
I'll hand it to Bush . . .
PastaJoe replied to MelissaInPhilly's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Bush saw the movie, "Urban Cowboy", and figured they should go after the cowboys living in urban areas. Yo-ha! -
I think they just say they're undecided so they can sit in and get the free cookies and coffee.

If you had to, whom would you start this week?
PastaJoe replied to Tolstoy's topic in Fantasy Football
I'd take a chance and start McGahee. This may be his breakout game (which for a Bills RB means scoring a touchdown). -
That stinks, he's the one that made the NFL draft so interesting. He knew something about every player. The continued dumbing down of ESPN football coverage with the likes of Stuart "Booya" Scott and Michael Irvin.

Which QB to start in a Head to Head League
PastaJoe replied to The Poojer's topic in Fantasy Football
The problem with McNair is he doesn't get alot of yardage, since they run the ball so much. I believe that Seattle may also try to run vs Pats. I think this might be a week for Palmer against a banged up Cleveland D. -
Herb Mul-Key Otis Sistrunk Cledius Hunt Boomer Esiason

Yeah, just like Frank Gifford was set up to ask for anal the first time he was with that other woman. Funny how easy these guys can be set up. If this woman has some of these conversations taped, I wonder how O'Reilly's conservative fans will react. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1013043mackris1.html

That wasn't the first time Kerry talked about his mother's words, he's spoken about it previously in interviews. As for Mary Cheney, Kerry was supporting her rights to live as she wishes, while Bush said we should 'tolerate' such people. Which position is more offensive? It will be interesting to see what the Log Cabin Republicans think of it, given that they have not yet endorsed Bush because of his views and policies regarding gays.

I thought both candidates did well in appealing to their bases. I thought some of the questions were weak (Flu shots, personal faith, wives) and weren't the major issues most Americans are concerned about in this election. I wanted to see a more in-depth discussion about the loss of jobs and what they realistically can and will do, which is my number one issue in this election.

Didn't Bush say the borders were more secure?

If something "goes down", then the Patriot Act will not have been effective in preventing it. -
They could try McGahee as a slot receiver in an emergency.

A little love for the OBGYNs
PastaJoe replied to Buckner's Glove's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I read those quotes and laugh until I realize he's the President, then I just shake my head in disbelief. It just goes to show where a person can go with the right handlers and financial backing. I once worked with a goofball like him. He would say outrageous things in meetings with a straight face, and we'd all look at each other and try not to laugh. I used to write them down, here's a couple: "You hit the nail right on the key" "That's just alot of crock" "A visual is worth a thousand extra words" "Are you looking for a miracle? Where's the shiny horse?" "They're going through their defense like swiss spagetti" "That's a spot where I'm stuck between a hard rock" -
is it ever a good idea, in a head to head league
PastaJoe replied to The Poojer's topic in Fantasy Football
You can't worry about who you're opponent is playing, you have to play whoever on your team is going to get the most points that week. Not playing your best QB isn't going to stop your opponent's WR from scoring. A perfect example was last week, benching Culpepper because your opponent had Moss would have cost alot of fantasy points from passes that didn't go to Moss. -
I'd go with Walker and Holt, Tennessee doesn't throw for TDs as frequently as the Rams and Packers do.

I think you should bring some bags, and if things aren't going well by halftime, put them on. Just like the Saints fans dropped a letter and wrote 'aints' on their bags, you could drop the B and put 'ills' on them, with a thermometer in your mouth and an icebag on your head.

The Bledsoe/Henry era is over, time to go with McGahee and Losman when he's available and work for next season. At this point I don't think anyone would give up a 1st round pick for Henry, except maybe Dallas might give us back our own. If you go through every team, they either have a back playing as good as or better than Henry or have drafted a young back in the past two years and wouldn't waste a 1st round pick on Henry.

Transcript from yesterday's MSNBC Hardball: Joining us from New York right now is Lawrence Kudlow, co-host of CNBC‘s “Kudlow & Cramer.” By the way, the Labor Department releases new job figures tomorrow for the month of September. Lawrence, thank you very much for joining us. It is a hot number, the number that comes out before the election. This is one of the last ones. In fact, this is last number on employment. What do you think it is going to tell us? LAWRENCE KUDLOW, CO-HOST, “KUDLOW & CRAMER”: Well, the consensus view on Wall Street, Chris, is about 150,000, which is a pretty good number, and people are speculating that prior months will be revised upward, so the actual number could be over 200,000. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6206085/

According to today's Labor Dept. job report, companies added 96,000 jobs to their payrolls in September, fewer than economists forecast for the last employment report before Election Day, highlighting a modest pace of hiring that has become an issue in President Bush's bid for re-election. On MSNBC yesterday, conservative economic commentator Lawrence Kudlow said an increase of 150,000 jobs would be an acceptable number to support Bush's claims the job market is improving. Job growth was held down by losses in manufacturing, retail and information services. September's net increase of 96,000 payroll jobs was less than August's rise, which was revised down in Friday's report from 144,000 to 128,000. Though 1.8 million jobs have been added to the payrolls of U.S. businesses since August 2003, there are about 800,000 fewer jobs -- overall -- than when Bush took office in January 2001. But many of the added jobs pay less and have fewer benefits than those lost during that time period. In other news, AT&T Corp. announced Thursday that it is cutting at least 7,500 more jobs. The company now plans to shrink its work force by more than a fifth, or about 12,500 jobs, during 2004 - up from a previous target of about 4,900 jobs. And the Bank of America Corp., the nation's No. 3 bank, said Thursday that it will cut another 4,500 jobs nationwide, possibly including in its Amherst mortgage operation, a suburb of Buffalo.

OT: Stern moving to Sirius Satellite EXCLUSIVELY
PastaJoe replied to John Adams's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's just a matter of time before someone figures out how to do it, I was just wondering if it was close. Perhaps something like linking the satellite signals to cell phone towers. -
So I guess it's a safe bet to say the Jets will win 31-10.

WMD were found in Iraq. Final proof Saddam had 'em
PastaJoe replied to Kelly the Dog's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Agreed, but the invasion of Iraq was not part of the war on terror. There was no connection to the events of 9/11, and they were not an imminent threat, as the continued inspections would have revealed. By opening a second, unnecessary front in Iraq, they have made a strategic mistake similar to which Hitler made invading the Soviet Union (and I'm talking strategy here, not comparing leaders or motivations, so don't start flaming). -
Charley Rangle Bails On the Draft
PastaJoe replied to Bob Lamb's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Except we can't touch the tax cuts! Everything BUT that! We must not take away the tax cuts from the top 10%, because history has shown that they and America will not thrive and survive without them. Patriotism has it's limits, and that limit is rolling back the tax cuts!
