    I think it's slam dunk . They haven't gone after MM before because MM never before declared it's sole purpose is to take down FOX .

    Since MM hasn't declared that then there is no case. And just saying "my purpose is to take you down" is not actionable.

    He didn't just say it . He showed Politico the internal memo . I'd tie them up in court ,get their emails and all internal correspondence in discovery. Let's see how long their resources last against News Corp .
    Maybe Soros will give them another 'charitable ' contribution .

    That just shows how vindinctive your ilk is. As Tut demonstrated with steve, logic plays no part in your thinking, you just want the other side to "hurt'. The world needs less people like that, wasting resources.

    So all news reporting is simply theoretical until someone shows the video, transcript or whatever?

    I guess you're just way too smart for me, dude. I don't find it necessary to over-think and over-analyze everything. When I read an alleged quote by someone who is in the business of "watching" the media, I believe it to be true until they object. That is only logical.

    Tut was completely illogical in my opinion, I'm the only one who has presented any real evidence thus far, you two are basing your 'logic' on a lack of evidence to the contrary.

    As for your absurd accusation that I 'just want the other side to "hurt,"' where's the proof?

    Don't you see the important work that MM is doing with your tax dollar ? Their investigators uncovered a memo that references Obama to "socialism, liberalism, Marxism "... ooooooooohhhh!! Breaking News!!

    Yep, they do fine work. I can't think of a better way to spend my tax dollars.

    Hello steve:

    YOUR tax dollars?? I thought right wingers believed that if you made it, it was YOURS - not the governments'. You sound like you believe they're spending YOUR money...

    If that's so, can I complain about the way your church spends ITS money?? Let me know, cause I WILL.

    I'm all in favor of removing the tax break for churches. I think that violates the establishment clause.

    When my church violates its tax status feel free to complain all you want.

    I believe tom already answered that one.

    More importantly, do we have a league yet?

    Hello again, Steve:

    Yeah, I missed that part of my own stinkin thread. Getting old, you know.

    Yes, we have a league. Haven't you been getting my emails? Draft is TONIGHT at 9 eastern, if I can get the time. But, I just found out we can wait till the middle of April - not that we want to, but I thought we were rushed.

    I thought it was the 30th. Either way I'll probably have to set mine to autodraft and hope for the best. Usually works well for tom. Somehow every year he gets Peyton Manning and never shows up for the draft.

    Lol... It's how you rearrange the players . (about to give up one of my secrets)
    Go to your team and open
    Edit Pre-Draft Player Rankings
    You can move them up or down depending on your preference and hope no one picks them first .
    On Edit Auto strategy you can prioritize by position or stats .

    I didn't select Manning last year . I moved Brees up .

    I know how to rearrange the draft order, I'm just clueless about fantasy MLB. I'll learn though. :)

    The trick in Rotisserie is that it's unusual that you are the best in all the stats . If you are weak in one you can either strengthen your team in that or try to get stronger in other stats.

    The biggest challenge is that stats compile daily so you have to keep up moving players in and out of the lineup ;especially pitchers.
