Yeah, the studies out there pretty clearly show that the communication we do online (FB and the like) in place of one one one in person stuff has a negative effect on our overall well-being.
Face time and the others are maybe the best parts of the internet---my daughter was really attached to her grandparents before she even met them in person, which is kind of awesome.
And then there's porn--it's pretty well understood that it's the single most influential economic engine that has fuelled the expansion of the internet but what's not yet understood or even talked about much is how big a problem addiction to porn is going to be.
Crazy when you look at the studies showing the widespread sexual dysfunction found in late adolescence.
Some people think it's going to be a fucking epidemic, as far as addictions go. And no one talks about it.

I mean, the article has him complimenting the Cubs.
Quote:"Let's face it," he said Thursday. "The Cubs are good, and they're not going anywhere for a while. I told Tom Ricketts at the Chicagoland Hall of Fame inductions, it's going to be fun playing them for a few years. It's going to be fun to kick their butts for a few years, I'll tell you that right now. They did it right. Theo and Jed (Hoyer) did it right, and Tom gave them the wherewithal. Jerry (Reinsdorf)'s given Rick and the guys the wherewithal now, and our coaches have finally got a whole bunch of good prospects."
I mock Harrelson a-plenty, but this sounds like a deep-dish nothingza.

Oh for fuck sake. I'm not asking he be indicted for treason, but it does mean he still sucks.

Sure, he sucks, but I don't see any evidence for that in this article.
You hate people moaning during game threads; I get titchy when people get overly asschapped about baseball personalities. Vive la différence.

I'm not overly asschapped, I just don't like him. He's clearly doing it for the meathead Sox fans benefit because they love that sort of shit, I don't see how that's any different from what Trump does for his goons other than sports don't really matter. But, this is a sports message board. C'est la vie.

Yeah, but what if Ron Santo gave a similar statement with teams reversed in 2006? I'd be all for it, wouldn't you?
