A majority of the grand jury voting he should stand trial.

Though I’m curious as to why larry thinks that the federal counts weren’t properly alleged. It’s vague, but federal non-drug cases usually are. Looks like a sufficiently alleged complaint to me.

by BridgeportJoe on Dec 15, 2008 4:25 PM CST up reply actions  

i saw nothing in the complaint, other than the mere allegation, that mail and/or telephone were used to actually further any conspiracy.

and the second charge is a pretty novel extension of the federal statute regarding state officials engaged in bribery. the aim of that statute is to prevent politicians from getting something of “value” – which would normally be seen as money or something equivalent (you know, diamonds, rembrandts, white sox scout seats). is getting a newspaper editor fired ‘value’? you’re on pretty thin grounds there.

at any rate, seems like one could make a fine state case out of this. not everything is for the feds.

by larry on Dec 15, 2008 4:32 PM CST up reply actions  

As a state AAG...

I appreciate the confidence in state prosecutors. But IL has some peculiar “pay-for-play” laws that make a state prosecution iffy. I personally have no problem taking an expansive — but good faith — interpretation of the federal bribery law. Firing the Trib editors certainly would be valuable to Blago (I suspect that if he was asked he would pay money to have it done). Let the judge kick it if he disagrees.

But in any event, I suspect the point of the prosecution is to get a crooked politician out of office. A conviction is secondary. And yes, we can have an argument over whether this is an appropriate use of prosecutorial power — but stuff like this happens all the time, and after seeing the inner workings of the process, I’m glad it does.

by BridgeportJoe on Dec 15, 2008 4:42 PM CST up reply actions  

i know what IL has. that's why the governor is sitting there thinking he's going to get away with this.

the problem is they had to move before they got actual wiretaps that had the governor furthering a crime etc. they moved before he actually seems to have gotten far enough. probably a good idea, considering what that crime was apparently going to be (selling a senate seat). but they may have blown their case over it. they can say now that a conviction is secondary – but that’s not what they thought two weeks ago.

i, on the other hand, have serious problems with the overreaching of the federal government. the enron fiasco of “good faith” and “expansive” interpretations and theories is case in point.

by larry on Dec 15, 2008 4:54 PM CST up reply actions  

indicted means a grand jury looked at your one-sided evidence and thought you had a chance at making your case.

while there were likely some pressing time constraints with this one (and the purpose of charging him seems rather more to have been to stop him from committing a crime than anything else), the complaint the government filed is a joke. salacious and damning in the eyes of the press and public, sure. but would have been laughed out of a grand jury room. one charge appears to be attempted conspiracy. which isn’t a crime. the second appears to be predicated on a novel theory which extends the definition of bribery. and, oh by the way, the complaint sort of fails to sufficiently explain what the federal hook for these activities, even if they are crimes, is.

if i’m rod or his attorney, i’m debating right now whether the government actually has something on me and they just put together this sloppy complaint due to time issues. or they put together this complaint because of time issues but also don’t have anything else right now. if i’m a betting man, i’d say it’s the latter because if they could actually have come up with a well-plead complaint, i don’t see how the time constraints would have stopped them.

the blackhawks are nice.
At first, Dale Tallon was so stunned he thought he was back in Chicago instead of at his father’s wake.

Walking into the hall that Sunday evening were many of Tallon’s co-workers from the Chicago Blackhawks, the coaching staff, trainers and equipment handlers. Then came the players – Patrick Kane, Patrick Sharp, Jonathan Toews – all of them getting off a bus in tiny Gravenhurst, Ont., instead of being home in Chicago.

Without warning or fanfare, the Blackhawks had chosen to forgo their chartered flight the night before so they could take a four-hour, round-trip bus ride north of Toronto to honour Tallon, their general manager, and his family.

Robothal: "Sources: A's up offer, look like leaders for Furcal"
From every indication, the A’s are the front-runner to sign free-agent shortstop Rafael Furcal.

The A’s have improved their initial four-year offer to Furcal, according to major-league sources.

Furcal, 31, does not appear to have another four-year proposal, though negotiations are fluid and subject to change.

Furcal’s agent, Paul Kinzer, said last week that the A’s, Dodgers, Blue Jays and Royals were the four finalists for his client. Other teams, however, could be in the mix.

The Dodgers will not offer Furcal four years and maybe not even three, sources say. The Jays are unable to compete economically. The Royals might need to trade outfielder Jose Guillen to clear payroll.

If Furcal signs with the A’s, the Dodgers could turn to free-agent shortstop Orlando Cabrera or re-sign free agent Angel Berroa, a lesser player. They also could revive trade talks for the Pirates’ Jack Wilson.

How often can a starting pitcher after a complete game, lift his pitching arm as high as the other?

I mean he does seem to be overworked, and I’ve heard on the radio (not a great source, I know) that his work ethic leaves something to be desired. So yeah, I agree, he’s more prone to injury than a lot of other pitchers, but I don’t believe this celebration, after a taxing no hitter means anything for his future performance.

because this is some of the stupidest shit i’ve read on here in awhile. you’re trying to tell me that a lack of proper range of motion in a pitching shoulder is an okay thing. rather the point of will’s response is that in something that should be a spontaneous, non-thinking action – raising one’s arms over their head in celebration – zambrano can’t do it. he lacks range of motion. which explains the recent change to his delivery. and tells one all one needs to know about the current functioning of his shoulder and his prognosis.

Pitching untl the arm gives out is honorable.

Now i can’t lift my right arm above my head. I had heart and passion……dammit.

My mechanics were ok

I would just go from not throwing from october-april and pitch 7 innings in our first game back. spring training is for pussies.

Whoosh.

I would rather douse a newspaper in gasoline, wrap it around my penis and light it on fire then relive that experience

Is this the first time you've been able to "whoosh" someone else?

Great feeling, isn’t it? Your first time is especially wonderful, and you’ll never forget who was your first “whoosh”.

You just wish you could live in the moment forever, don’t you, you OPOS? ;)
