Heh, why should I put a positive spin on a movie I didn't like. The dialogue was poor and the only thing worth seeing were the special effects. Lucas is just milking Star Wars now for the money, it wasn't innovative like it was when the first three came out.

Phil Jackson - When he can turn a team that doesn't have star-studded talent on it into a contender, then he gets credit. He shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Pat Riley or Larry Brown.

I don't like baseball, you're right. Why shouldn't I tell you you're wrong for liking it? I don't like baseball because I feel as a sport it's over-rated. Does it take talent, yes. Does that make it fun or interesting to watch? no, not in my opinion. I like to play it, but normally that involves a bbq and a cooler full of beer.

I didn't say baseball would never work in DC. However, I could certainly see it fail. I didn't expect the Nationals to do so well (did anyone?) so that may have saved it and gotten the approval of a stadium, etc. However, I could still see it struggling some. I think MLB as a whole will begin to struggle more and more as the years go on. That's just my feeling.

All of the positive things I've posted in the off-topic forum you've ommited. Same with all the positive posts I put in the locker room. Those seem to be forgotten and it's always being pessimistic. I'm not looking to be noticed at all, I post my opinions how I see them, isn't that what discussion boards are for? I don't even feel it as a pesimistic outlook to try to see what can/might go wrong. I think we should be prepared to analyze the team and it's weaknesses. It has it's strong points defense, RB, coaching staff. It has it's weak points: WR's, Playcalling, and QB (kinda, love Ramsey but there's a lot depending on him this year). Granted all of that could change come the begininning of the year, but I prefer not to base my arguments on what if's, rather I prefer to base them on what I've seen.
