Isn't he some old time blues guitar player?

Dwight Gooden says..."No".


Um, is he sober enough to know what we're talking about?

Pansy older players attempting to recapture the prime of their careers say...ah, who really cares what they say...



Let me guess, you're from an American league city or a fan of an American league team.

You mock the Big Train?!?

The Doc may indeed be a bit too intoxicated...but we'll bring in Satchel Paige to confirm...

And I am a fan of the New York Mets...grew up in Los Angles where everyone is a Dodger fan...the American League is not a favorite...though I was happy to see the steroid infected Bo(Red)Tox win a series...

At least bite off something chewy... the designated hitter rule? There's more wrong with baseball than that!

How about: "Professional baseball players should play every position in every game, rotating between innings."

Now that would get rid of some of the primadonnas!

Thought I'd stop on by this thread for a spell. I have my first debate going, and I've noticed that I haven't really been posting anywhere the last few days. I find this forum to be the most interesting on this site, and that is actually saying alot. Some of you I would find it hard to challenge on but a few topics.

Actually, I think that the topic I accepted for my first challenge became phrased a little different than I would have preferred it. (And I would have loved to have gone second) The truth is, I am not the typical Christian, and definitely loathe the typical doctrine of the organized churches. Maybe if I can keep the debate going in the direction of my second post, I will finally be able to move forward the way I would prefer, you know? But my opponent has made this interesting, and I love a good learning experience. (even on a TNT topic, lol)

Either way, my schedule doesn't really make for good debate time, but when I am done with this first learning experience, I look forward to some other debates with you ATSers!

And I will talk smack for fun if anyone needs it, lol. Later all, Jason

edit to add that I appreciate all of you who set this forum and matches up. that's greaat of you all to help facilitate this kind of forum!

Don't know how many people I'll offend by saying this here, but oh well.

I don't think soccer would be fun to watch no matter what you did to it.

Well...unless you turned it into a real sport!

Challenge Match: Rockpuck vs. TruthWithin: Third World Currency?

Hope you guys like the topic. And, for the record, a coin flip determined the sides of argument.

This should be a good one, as both fighters have proven themselves worthy, and at times vicious....

Good Luck Gentlemen.

Preemptive war good or bad?

Will space exploration benefit mankind or is it a waist of money?

Are labor unions beneficial or harmful to workers?

Should there be a federally approved basic national labor contract, one that gives workers health insurance {paid 75% by employer and 25% by the worker, no matter what the pay rate} a basic pay rate, yearly costs of living raises, and a pension plan?

Should the country force health care professionals to work for a national health care program as part of paying back there college loans?

The Federal Reserve good for us or not?

Should we return to the gold standard?

Could Communism and a Democracy co exist? As one form of hybrid government?

Could the North American Union be Good for us?

Are Tasers a weapon of terror?

Should Supreme Court Judges have term limits?

Is torture a effective tool, or just barbaric?

Are vaccines causing mental illness?

How and why are prescription drugs being introduced into our water supply?

Is HAARP real?

Recession or depression?

Just a few thoughts people!

Sure, how 'bout something nice and patriotic, for the 4th? Such as "there was no legal basis for the Colonies declaring their independence from Great Britain"?

Of course, that one was debated hotly enough 230 years ago..

Needs to be a quick debate though... 24 hours MAX between replies.. I hate long drawn out debates...

So regular rules and all that stuff OK with you?

If so, I'll send a U2U to one of the Main Guys...
