did they really move the fences in for brian giles at petco?

The fences were moved in at Petco Park because last season, hitters hit the fewest home runs out of any major league park.  I'm sure this influenced Brian Giles' thinking but they weren't moved in just for him.

No. Both Siegfried and Roy state that it wasn't the animal's fault. They refused to have him put to sleep. (Although he is much more caged than the other animals.)

Not that well. Terry Wallace certainly is sounding guarded on their website. According to current odds, they are between 22 to 1 and 30 to 1.

I saw Brian Minto fight at Mountaneer in West Virginia. He fought well against veteran Tony Tubbs but lost. Minto's manager Lou Duva went nuts on the referee. I think to this day that is his only loss. I'm not familiar with the other guy but I like Minto and so I pick him.

He made a routine grounder in front of the bag and he turned around and slowly jogged to the base all while the runner was hustling at full speed. It looked like he was out in the replay but the ump called him safe. This would have been the third out of the inning but Washington went on to score 4 runs that inning. Adam has had ADD since he was a kid and while he doesn’t place the blame on his ADD it has caused him a few minor problems in the past. Adam is not conceited or arrogant…he made a mistake. The first thing he did after the game was apologize to the manager and to the pitcher. Baseball has to be the worst sport to have ADD in because there is so much down time that can lead to distractions. And while I can’t speak for my fellow braves fans I know I’m not made at him anymore.

If anything the minutemen are making the job of the border patrol easier. i dont think that the idea to leak information  came from the border patrol. my guess is that it came from politicians that want hispanic votes and the pressure tricked down to the border patrol.

At least we live in a day and age where animals have a great chance of being saved when they have life threatening injuries. I am thinking that he has improved a lot since there has not been any news about hime on Yahoo lately. It is loking now that he will manage to become a breeding stallion so we may very well be seeing little Barbaro's running on the track soon.\n\nI would like to add that until we begin to cross speed horses with distance horses, we will probably never win another Triple Crown.

Posted: 6/13/2006 3:13:04 PM ET\n \nBarbaro's cast changed; injured leg looks 'excellent'\n \nKentucky Derby (G1) winner Barbaro's cast was changed on Tuesday for the first time since his surgery on May 21 to repair multiple fractures in his right hind leg, suffered during the Preakness Stakes (G1) the previous day. \n \nDean Richardson, chief of surgery at the George D. Widener Hospital for Large Animals at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center, replaced the cast with Barbaro under general anesthesia and was pleased with how the colt is healing.\n\n"His leg looks excellent," Richardson said. "The incision has healed well and judging by the radiographs, the graft is opacifying (taking). Callus is forming nicely, and all of the implants (plate and 27 screws) look unchanged." \n\nBarbaro came out of anesthesia in the facility's recovery pool, a process that went very smoothly, according to a press release.\n\nBarbaro remains in intensive care at the hospital.

I read that book last year. The king and the duke were scam artists. They met up with Huck and Jim somewhere along the way on his trip. They weren't really a king and a duke. They just pretended to be.

I heard awhile ago he was let go from DOOL. They brought in a new head writer who wants to go in a new direction that Patrick didn't fit into. That's the reason they're making Hope's baby Bo's. (won't be found out for awhile though) I heard that he was going to try and kidnap Hope and leave the country with her and the baby and he'll be gone shortly after that (shot? escape and disappear? who knows) I am sad that's he's leaving because he is very easy on the eyes but I  don't like the direction they took his storyline.

No. He was not nominated. He still could be at a high cost, but he was not a normal triple crown nominee.

(edit) The following quoted from a page on ESPN. Please follow the link below to view the source.\n\nJones' lack of commitment to attending production meetings has long been an issue, and HBO Sports President Ross Greenburg finally had enough.\n\n"Roy was not able to give us the commitment we needed as a broadcaster," Greenburg said. "It was an issue of time, effort and preparation. He is still an active fighter."

Not personally, but I saw Rodney step into a huge, slimy cow pie.  He then proceeded to slip and fall.  He was fortunate that he had on rubber boots and cover-alls, but it was absolutely hilarius!

He got it! It was in the briefcase that Phillip Seymour-Hoffman was holding and they swapped it. I thought it was really clever how they retrieved it and they were quite lucky actually. I think they would have been screwed if the guard saw them! But I agree with you, they could have added a more detailed explanation of what the mission entailed and how they would go about it, but it still made for good viewing. \n\nWhat really peeved me off was that they didn't say what the rabbit's foot was!!! He asked Lawrence Fishburne and he told Ethan that he'll tell him if he promises to come back after the honeymoon...maybe they'll reveal what it is in the next film! And another thing: I thought Lawrence Fishburne turned out to be the bad guy! What happened, it was all cool in the end! Lawrence helped save Phillip Seymour- Hoffman and they were all cool in the end, it didn't make sense whatsoever!!\n\nSo, I guess there was a lot missing!

hmmmm....I'm pretty sure he did.  If I remember correctly he was lookin' for a 'base' to steal-not a soul as orginally suggested.  *shrugs* or it could have been he was fiddlin' around to find the 'bats' that fled from hell.

Some will agree that Rose has a valid point but most won't.  The fact that he knowingly bet on the game destroyed any chance of him getting into the hall of fame.  There is no greater desire in  Pete Rose's life than to be elected into the hall of fame.  It's what he played for his entire career.  It means more to him than his 5 pennants or 3 world championships.  I met Pete Rose in Philadelphia as part of a little league home run derby event and I must say I never met a more arrogant self centered individual in my life.  He came into the dugout at the Vet and literally blow off the kids around him who stood in awe of him.  I will never forget that.  The image of a super star making little kids feel like dirt.  I think it reflected a microcosm of his life.  It was all about him, "Look at me, I'm Pete Rose!".  I often thought after that incident that one day his arrogance might come back and bite him in the rear.  Well, it did.  I have no pity for him and I hope he never gets his ultimate prize.  There are many ways to cheat and I think between Rose, McGwire, Sosa, Bonds and many more, they have found them all.  However, there has to be a line drawn.  The integrity of baseball is at stake and it's up to the sports writers association to maintain it.  To elect McGwire into the hall just opens this giant can of worms and I'm sure this is what Rose would like.  In effect it loosen the criteria for getting in.  It makes his position stronger at least in his own mind and in the mind of his supporters.  The bottom line is this, whether the Rose situation is different than the McGwire situation is really not that important.  Cheating is cheating no matter how is was done.

That is such a toss up.\nI don't think Selig has the cojones to do anything but spout off.\nBonds will shoot up all he wants and get away with it.\nHe is a disgrace and dishonors baseball and all the true greats of the game.\nThey did it on beer and hot dogs!
