Good Lord, how far our vocabularies have fallen....when I read your link that Judy McGrath was OUT, I immediately thought she was a lesbian and wondered how that could possibly be damaging to someone in the entertainment industry.

Using salary cap “parity” as an excuse is pretty lame.

I was all geared up to get approval to go back sometime next week. Half days at first. Now I have to wait till Monday to see the doc. He’s not going to let me travel internationally for a few months.

It’s the thought that counts, no need fir a big splash. Even frugal jagoffs can do something nice to show their appreciation.

I doubt xsboy has any awareness of mothers day since he’s in the throes of finals and packing to move home on Monday. Only one chick in the nest this mothers day!

Well that’s where we are different, I don’t seek out random pens fans to diss any of their players whom I may dislike. Ask the soother, I’ve been very nice to your braindamaged capt this year!
