My first crack at the POTW contest and first post on the forum:

Long CHINA

BoSox Jon wins!

Where did you come from?

[Rob]

I see that Diogenes' ADAM has nosed into the lead.

I'm a young punk (17) and I've been reading these forums for quite a while using a lot of the strategies others use on here to build on my own. This week I decided I'd join and enter the POTW contest. Beginner's luck I guess?

Spike,
One of my favorites. On that pier by the quarry and Harry says. " go ahead punk, make my day" and then blows him away when he reaches for the gun.

BoSox,
Do you own it? Great year for the Red Sox last year huh. This year ought to be pretty good without Johnny Damon. By the way where is he playing now?

I don't own it. My (lack of) money is busy tied up in NVAX. Even better though I guess . Mr. Damon is on the Yankees, but eh who needs him, we have Coco now!

NVAX had a nicer day than CHINA an I think the chart looks better. Good for you. On the other hand I can't wait for the season to start and the Yankees to crush the Red Sox into oblivion. I wouldn't hold my breathe waiting for Coco to put up the same numbers as Damon.

[Rob]

ANIK had a nice day too. I used to track that one but never owned it.

However, the Yankees might now get 80% of the fielding errors of Bernie for 10x the price! Will we see the "winner's curse" in action again!

[EDITED]
Pardon me: Damon's career fielding stats are worse than Bernie's.

Blasphemy Park. Don't tell me you're a Red Sox fan. Say it ain't so Park.

[ParkTwain]

Lived in Boston for 20 years, but not a huge Sox fan (grew up in Memphis) because the ownership during those years was so mediocre. They simply wouldn't spend the money, but it was also mostly owned by a freakin' foundation, er, trust (created by Mr. Yawkey). The new Red Sox owners are richer than God (one of the owners, John Henry, is a commodities trader http://www.streetstories.com/jwh_inst_investor.html) and can spend at a level that matches Steinbrenner.

Boston and New England fantasize (and are fanatical) about summer and the games of summer much like Las Vegas (my present home) fantasizes about water. Wouldn't you say that it's a general observation that a local society focuses the most emotional energy on what it perceives it has the least of!

I never thought of it that way. Being from NJ the thing we fantasize most about that we have the least of are honest politicians.

[ParkTwain]

What NJ perversely fantasizes the most about is being the Big Apple. That's probably inevitable.
