    Barry Bonds

    Here in KC, on the sports-talk show I listen to, callers keep bringing up the fact that no one has attacked Mark Mcgwire, but we're hammering Barry Bonds. the huge majority of those callers are Black, and for me, I'm sick of it. I'm tired "us" using the race card when things don't go our way...

    Despite wrestler murder no comments?

    I've been watching "wrestling" since I was in High school, and this is a horrible tragedy, to be sure. Steroids definately played a part in this, no matter how the WWE tries to cover it up. Benoit was always stocky, but as of about 5-6 years ago, He became really cut, and ripped, much more...

    Panther and UPS Part II

    I know, I'm just tired of everybody assuming that they know what's happening with us, and I'm right here in the thick of it. Unless they work for upper management UPS, or have seen concrete documentation of any "changes", it's all speculation and heresay. I will repeat: we are going through a...

    Panther and UPS Part II

    joebob....who said we failed? we are not closing down, and UPS hasn't said "we're not doing expedited freight." I'm not understanding what you're trying to say. just because we are not "buying panther" means we failed? I'm trying to understand what you're saying, because unless you knew ALL...

    Panther and UPS Part II

    Well said jefferson3000. UPS freight and UPS Expedite are two different entities, with two completely different agendas. UPS freight actually calls us when they can't handle shipments, believe it or don't. UPS Expedite and other smaller portions of UPS are merging together sometime in early...

    what is UPS doing?

    Stoff, you know I've been here during that whole time, and you're right...I believe the lack of business or constant spiral downward of lack of good runs is somehow directly attributed to the big layoff we had back in 2001, where all of the part time personnel was let go, and also the Surface...

    what is UPS doing?

    Yes, I was here too, been here since 1996, and I'm starting to agree with you.....we had no problems keeping our relatively small fleet busy, in fact, O/O's had to turn down runs fairly regularly. It wasn't unusual for ST teams to average 5000 miles a week. where have all the good times gone?

    what is UPS doing?

    Who is sheila? we have a sheila in our dayton office, and she is a manager, but she has never posted on this website...I don't think she's ever even seen it. She handled the dedicated tractor I/C's.

    Bonds and his home runs

    Much like Hank Aaron, I will probably be on the golf course or playing GTA San Andreas when BB brakes the home run record. I couldn't care less when, or if He does it. He and numerous other players juiced up, so I can barely tolerate baseball now.

    who's your favorite all-time baseball player, and

    RE: who's your favorite all-time baseball player, I liked Tony Gwynn a lot, He was a wizard with the bat, and a student of the game. there was no one way to pitch him, sometimes I think HE knew what the pitcher was going to throw before the pitcher knew.

    Barry Bonds

    I'm black (afro american), and I think he is on something. seriously, based on the homers he's hit since 2000-2001, how many of those were cheap home runs? 10-20? I think its a combination of the juiced ball, mediocre pitching, and steroids. Sportscenter has shown so many of his homers (probably...

    who's your favorite all-time baseball player, and

    RE: who's your favorite all-time baseball player, Pete Rose will probably never get into the hall of fame...He not only gambled on baseball, but He's really shown no type of contrition for what He did. I liked Him as a player, but as a person, He's got a lot to learn. It's not like He didn't...

    Fantasy

    I've done baseball, a few years ago. it can be time consuming, due to the fact that baseball season is so long. I think I'm going to try football soon....I didn't care for baseball, at all. I think it's primarily for people who have lots of time on their hands.

    Are you following the draft?

    WOO HOOOOOO!!! Greg Olsen is a Chicago Bear? I can't believe He fell that far...unless he's not as good as advertised. 4.50 40 time for a tight end is hard to overlook, but hey...Alan Branch, the monster DT from michigan fell all the way to the beginning of the second round, and all the experts...
