Man A = Financial\nMan B = Emotional \nMan C = Physical\n\nNow hear me out.  Curt Schilling hardly ever finishes a game right.  In fact, he only pitches every fourth game.  In each game he has a middle reliever and a closer.  Yet, he's a hero.\n\nSo, why ask one man to do it all for the woman?  After all, the finacial guys are usually insenstive.  The emotional guys might not get it done physically. And the physical guys might not have a penny.\n\nMy point is this.  The divorce rate is 50%, so isn't wise to discuss other options?

that is sick... you should have one partner for life all these people getting divorced are not willing to try and make it work... they arent really in love and dont want to change a little bit to please the person they love... communication is key in a good relationship without it we will all end in divorce...

myself I think the deal about juicing has NEVER been proved. I mean come on people we are talking about a man that has played 20 years and has compiled some of the best stats EVER, and people want to trash everything he has done on whispers. Damn he started out on a crap team and lead it to be a contender. I think he has every god given right to be in the HOF. Look at some of the old timers in the hall... drunks, wife beaters, gamblers, I need not go on. I by far don't hate Barry and if most of the baseball public would get their heads out of their a$$es and get off the holier than thou seat they wouldn't either. Last I know he played in America ... ya know innocent until PROVEN guilty, and I don't mean people trying to make a quick buck with "tell all" books. Just my thoughts.....

1)single\n2)double\n3)triple\n4)HR\n5)error\n6)wild pitch\n7)passed ball\n8)steal home\n9)balk\n\nkinda cheap to count the 4 different types of hits but I couldn't think of any other way to get 9. \n Squeeze play wouldn't work because with 2 outs you'd only need to get the out at first and inning is over and if he makes it to first then it's a single so it's no different.\n Sac Fly?  there are 2 outs though someone else already pointed that out.\n \nWhat about catcher's interference?  Does the man on third get a base or do you have to be forced to move to get to on that type of play?\n\nhmmm...that's all I can think of right now.

WOW!!! glad to see that you finally got your book published!  lol\n     to answer your question...i think i would put it in this order.  #1 being the most important:  \n(1)-manner  (2)-sex  (3)-money  (4)-looks  (5)-career  (6)-physique  (7)-penis\n\ni do find it difficult to draw a line between sex and penis, and looks and physique.  i understand your explanations, but they just seem to go together to me.  and, yes, i would like to stress personality.  i can't be with a man that i don't find funny.  he's got to be able to make me laugh!  confidence should be on your list, also.  if it was, that would be my number one!\n\nedit-you are very welcome!  good luck on getting everyone to follow directions.  half of the people on here can't even spell...lol.  well, i guess i'm sticking with that order then.  curious to know what your number one is???\n\nedit-take two-the more i think about it, the more i think that i should have switched money and looks.  i've dated some broke guys that were very attractive!  and i'm not that materialistic.  hmm...guess it's too late.  peace.

Sadly, I feel that men control most of the assets in this country.  \n\nHowever if you consider children to be assets then Im sure women have far more control (legal guaradianship) over them.\n\nSo I guess in the long run you can say men have more assets as far as money goes, but women raise more children thus having great power on the future generations of Americans.  So its a matter of opinion to say who trully has more power/assets.

A few reasons. 1). The five man rotation which cuts down a pitcher's starts to around 30-32 games a season. Up until the start of the 162 game era, pitchers could routinely pitch 38-40+ games a year. Cy Young started 906 games in his 20+ years as a pitcher. 2). To protect their multi-million $ investments, teams "baby" their pitchers so they rarely pitch on less than 3-4 days rest or throw in between starts. Which leads to 3). More time on the DL (and less starts) because they don't throw as much to build up arm strength and brings us to 4).The pitch count. You think Warren Spahn was ever pulled after throwing 110 pitches? Which gave birth to 5). The advent of the middle relief specialists. You can thank Tony LaRussa for bringing in a left handed reliever in the 7th to face one batter. Go 8 innings with the lead and you control your chance to win. Get pulled in the 6th or 7th and you leave it to a guy who couldn't cut it as a starter. A 20 game winner used to be the gold standard. Now it's 15. Who said today's players are much better than the players from the past?

They can get a man of their own and probably do. If the man is interested then why not.It takes two. You can't blame the woman. The men are willing.

Pitching is the only thing we really need,I hope they made a really good bid on this Matsuzaka!! I heard Andy Pettite Had dinner with Joe Torre Last night,And i read in todays paper,he said if he pitches next yr he wants to come back to the yankees,Roger Clemens if he plays next yr,WILL FINISH HIS CAREER IN BOSTON!! From what i read in todays paper If we don't get Matsuzaka,We'll go after Zito,And i belive Pettite is going to come back.Don't forget we have this Kid Phil Huges,Whos also going to be a GREAT PITCHER! And We'll get something for Sheffield\n4 clubs called about him,But Cashman wants to trade him to an NL Team,,Because he's pissed,and he can hurt us in the long run if we trade him to an AL Team,

Wow. Good question.  Guys come in two types, 1. Stupid about girls; 2. Players.\nCategory 1 can produce some good catches for a girl, but can be hard to read.  What you have to do is watch out that you're not falling for a category 2.  A 'Player' is a guy who will play a girl, or anyone else, for a fool to get what he wants.  In other words, he doesn't really give a crap about anyone other than himself but will act like he does in order to use someone.  There is nothing good about a 'player'.  He will bring you nothing but pain and disappointment.\n\nI know it is hard to have a crush on someone and still think straight about them.  But what you need to be asking yourself is, "What's in this for me?"  Meaning - take care of yourself first.  What you need to ask here is: a. does this guy like you better than baseball (for example); b. does he like you better than his buddies; c. does he like you better than his car.\n\nDon't let yourself get used!  No sex.  If you make the no sex thing clear, and stand up for yourself, and don't give him money - and he still hangs around, he still makes time for you, AND he buys gifts for you on your birthday and sometimes just because he saw something nice and thought of you - you may have a winner.  He might just really like you.\n\nMy wife and I have been married nearly 22 years.  I think she finally believes I really like her.  Point being - it takes some time to figure out if someone is legit or just playing you.  Don't just fall head over heals the first time 'he' walks up and talks to you.  Most guys 'like' most girls, especially girls who like them.  That's a given.  A heck of a lot of guys are also spoiled, egotistical, self-centered jerks who don't care about anyone but themselves.  You look out for your own best interests, and try not to get used.  Keep your standards high, and one day one of the category 1 guys will wake up, meet those standards, and make you a very happy lady.

Of course!  But not for the 'sex' reasons.  For simple freedom of choice.  My opinion is from the guy point of view.  If I want to golf, I want to just go and golf.  If I want to go have a beer with the guys, I want to go have a beer.  If I want to watch the game, dangit!  I want to watch the game!  Choose what I want for dinner.  Spend money the way I want to.  Things like that.

This is quite possibly the stupidest question in the baseball section of Yahoo Answers I have ever seen.\n\n--1-- There is no scandal.\n\n--2-- If there was, it is nowhere close to the Black Sox.  This is about as asinine as comparing a purse snatcher to Adolph Hitler.\n\n--3-- Howard was the superior athlete in 2006.  He had more home runs, more RBI's, led his team to more victories (85 wins for the Phillies vs 83 wins for the Cardinals).\n\n--4-- The arguement that says Pujols deserves it because he spent 3 weeks on the DL is asinine.  If anything, it proves that Ryan Howard is the more durable and reliable player.  Hell, if Bo Jackson never got injured, he might have been the greatest player of all time.  Should we have given the MVP from 1992 to 1997 to Bo Jackson simply because he MIGHT have hit better than Barry Bonds IF he stayed healthy?  Absolutely not.\n\n--5-- Ryan Howard took a team that had given up at the trading deadline (trading away Lidle AND Abreu to the Yankees) and kept them in the hunt for the wild card single handedly.  If Howard was not a Phillie, it is likely they would have finished dead last in the NL East, making Howard BY FAR more valuable than Pujols, who's team played in the weakest division in baseball, and likely would have won the division with or without him.\n\nBottom line...in 2006, Ryan Howard > Albert Pujols, and Ryan Howard is your 2006 NL MVP.\nEnd.\nOf.\nStory.\n\nNext......

Once again, he has a kid. She will ALWAYS be his kid. I would NEVER let a man come before my daughter. Men who can't/won't understand that aren't worth my time. As I said earlier, a bit of action is easy to find or replace.

Never!  Whether the drugs were banned or not, McGwire, Bonds, Sosa and all the others deliberately took chemically enhancing drugs to gain an unfair advantage over their peers.  That my friend is dishonest.  There is no justification for cheating.  Some people in here like to split hairs when it comes to the technicality of their actions.  I don't buy it!  It's like they're saying, " I did not have sex with that woman!"  Define sex, Define cheating!!  It's all the same.  The integrity of baseball is at stake here and the sports writers have an obligation to uphold it.  The fact is McGwire wasn't that good a player.  Check his stats.  Except for the chemically enhanced home runs, his numbers are very unremarkable.  He was not a very good hitter and was a below average defensive player.  Even if he didn't cheat, he does not belong in the HOF.

I'm  not saying women shouldn't have equal rights and all that 1950's shite. but seriously think about how much drama that would cause with the players and the mlb personell. won't happen, it'd be bad for baseball.

(A friend huh? )  Why is it that when ever someone on this site wants a "quickie divorce",or wants to break up with someone,the first thing they say is: "It's not me-it's for a friend?"\n\n(1) First of all,why waste your time trying to get answers to your friends problems? Is he/she not capable of taking care of this him/herself?\n( 2) Do you think people on this site are able to determine why this marriage should end,without details?\n(3) Stop Lying!-Your the one who wants the " Quicky divorce" (wink,wink!). You probably got married just as quick,and as a matter of fact,you probably do "everything" quick (wink,wink). (Anyway) stop trying to do everything so "Quickly". Pay the cost to end the marriage,or prove to the Lawyers,that YOUR WIFE is capable of footing the bill!. \n\n(PS) Just to let you know,there is no such thing as "breaking away clean",from a divorce. Everyone will pay,suffer,or whatever in the long run. Don't forget about Alimony,and paying any bills she has accumulated over the years. Good thing there's no kids involved. (Good luck)

I worked for a minor league baseball team for 5 years. I dated off and on with a player,who now is in the major league. \nYou have to understand being a (famous) athlete. Even if being in just the minor league, girls throw themselves at these guys.( At the ballpark- whenever they go out. And trust me they do go out.)DURING THE SEASON YOU WILL NOT SEE YOUR BOYFRIEND/ HUSBAND.But if you have a good guy then he will be faith full, regardless of where he is. So its ultimately if you can handle the pressure of being a Players wife?
