LMAO... Rock saved the pic the second he saw it... He's got it on his hard-drive already...


But I'm the fucking nutjob...

That doesn't sound especially accurate

Didn't Phil Hughes lose the allstar game a few years ago? Granted he shouldn't have been pitching if the AL wanted to win, but he was there.

If they spent billions in ads, I'd know/care...

I enjoyed reading your opinion on what's good for black people though...Who would have known the answer was staring them right in the face(Well, telling them that they expect to be taken care of by other people)? THE REPUBLICANS!!

I never said the republicans are the answer...didn't even remotely hint at it...but you've been conditioned to conclude there are only 2 political parties in this country...soooo...

Who says I voted for Romney? I just think he (obviously having a pretty good educational background) steered the party away from the 2008 Joe the Plumber/Palin mentality. I'd suggest they not go back.

OK I am a Democrat that hates Obama. But Voted for him because of the way Romney is viewed in Michigan.

Didn't Phil Hughes lose the allstar game a few years ago? Granted he shouldn't have been pitching if the AL wanted to win, but he was there.

Off the top of my head, Hughes and Robertson are both Cashman-drafted and have made all star teams

Might be others, but can't think of any off the top of my head

Technically speaking, Cano was a signed free agent

Also, did Kennedy make the All Star team the year he finished in the top 5 of Cy Young voting?
