She probably won but not by much 2. I think the beehive hair and excessive drug are the answer. 3. No, Soriano and Miguel Cabrera made the same amount in arbitration. He has won Rookie of the Year and MVP the last two seasons. doesn't he deserve that much? 4. He will get caught in a stairwell in Detroit instead of Minneapolis Your welcome. ramon

Please post your address here. They will be arriving via registered mail. Yes, I'm still more or less confused now. But not about the draft. Did Clinton win the debate? What makes Amy Winehouse so cool? Did the Ryan Howard arbitration result ruin baseball? What will happen with Dwight Smith now? So many questions, and only jama knows... :) jama wins a two week-old Fresh Wok spring rolls. Please post your address here. They will be arriving via registered mail.

So the Wolves will have one first round pick and 2 second round picks this year. The second 2nd round pick is from Boston via Miami so it will probably be one of the 1st picks in the second round. Are you more or less confused now? ramon

Apparently until the Twins stadium opens. The exit ramps are still open. Dave and Ryan - I'm not much of a modern music fan so it's not fair for me to comment on the Foo Fighters. I just picked their name because I'm a jaded old man. That's no reflection on them or their fans - rather me. I've seen the Foo Fighters live... also watched a James Brown show from the side of the stage. So that's my perspective... Now - has anyone sussed out the Wolves' draft position scenarios for next year? Or was everyone pretending they were actually going to pull it out against the Spurs?

Otherwise, I'd agree with Ryan that their stuff seems watered down on an individual album scale.

When do we get the Boston pick in the Garnett trade? I have some weird idea that we're somehow getting two first rounders next year. Okay… now what about a good Chinese take-out after eleven?

Unless Miami miraculously makes the playoffs this year, we'll only have our own first rounder. Why you're supposed to like the Foo Fighters? They're one heck of a live band . I'm a fan of theirs but I think the consensus among most people is that they'd have one heck of a greatest hits album but their catalog is watered down as a whole.
