This guy IS the biggest **hole in the world, and TO ME, has WAY surpassed Barry Bonds as King P***K...!!
Gary Sheffield has strong words about New York Yankees manager Joe Torre, former Yankees teammate Derek Jeter, San Francisco slugger Barry Bonds and steroids in an interview with HBO's "Real Sports" that will air next Tuesday.
Sheffield says Torre treats black players differently from white players and says Jeter, who is from a mixed-race marriage, "ain't all the way black," during the interview with Andrea Kremer, as reported by Newsday. As for Bonds, Sheffield says "if I took what Barry Bonds took, why don't I look like him?" He also says that he never took steroids because "the bottom line is steroids is something you stick in your butt -- period."
He added that he would be willing to talk to baseball's steroids investigator, former Senator George Mitchell. "I don't feel like it's all that much of a threat to me," he said. A copy of the interview was made available to Newsday, the newspaper reported. The show airs for the first time on Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET.
Sheffield, who was traded to the Detroit Tigers during the offseason, claimed that a "couple of blacks that were there" had an issue with Torre. He had a message to get across to the whole team, so he used me to get the message across.
"They weren't treated like everybody else. I got called out in a couple of meetings that I thought were unfair," Sheffield told Kremer.

I don't have to give you anything actually.
You started the thread, because you simply do not like him, Im telling you that if one guy says it, I brush it off, if another says it, There has to something to it.
I personally don't think it's even close to being imporant, or news worthy, the ONLY THING I care about what that man does is continuing to do what he is doing for us now.
You waste your time hating him, I have better things to do.
Roll your eyes, and spin it either way you want to, I don' care either way.
All I know is he speaks his mind, and people like you that hate him make a big deal of it, all the while he continues to to hit .300+ and damn if he won't mash 40 homers for us this year..
Peace!!1
LMAO....see, when it comes to who I like as an athlete...on top of hitting 30 homes runs or scoring 20 TD or averaging 25 points a game....UNLIKE YOU...he has to have character....he has to NOT be an embarrassment to his race(regardless of what it is) and where he is from(regardless of what country he is from). Someone that there is a SMALL chance he will be in a criminal line-up and DOES NOT BLAME OTHERS for things that did not go his way on another team!!
And, I am not as forgiving about athletes as most. Do I dislike the Sheffield?? Absolutely!! And I ALSO dislike A-Rod, but I stick up for him when something is unfair. And everyone here knows my dislike for Barry Bonds, but I sill stick for him whe he deserves to be backed.

LOL, your a hatful person I can see that already, so this is the last thing I will say to you. Pay close attention, ok?
You DO NOT KNOW me, so for you to question my CHARACTER really makes no sense to me what so ever, but, seens on how you went there, PM, sometime, Ill give you character ok?
I promise you once I give you the story you will not question that ever again. Ah who knows, you just might.
Anyway, it seem's you awful judgmental about alot of people, grow up, move on, and Stop hating people my man..
Or you can just keep going like your going and wasting precious time, whatever you wanna do.
Peace...

LMAO...I love when guys are SO sharp that they can READ me from a few post here. Dude if you were THAT good, you would be in Vegas playing poker making millions..!!
I never questioned your character, I questioned the fact that hitting home runs is more important to you than a players character. He has been traded what...7 times??!!! He is a gifted ball player that quite possibly be a 1st ballot Hall of Famer. But when you have HOF numbers, but get traded AT LEAST 7 times(and I doubt he will finish his career in Detroit)...I doubt almost ALL those clubhouses have more or less the same "different points of view" as he did... then there is a issue somewhere...According to him, he has never done anything wrong....everybody ELSE had the issues....
Hell, Albert Belle was an angry SOB, but he was traded half as many times.
And finally, I don't need to PM you so you can prove to me that you have character. Take it for what its worth, but if you need to tell someone that you HAVE character....then....well.....I don't need to say anymore....
So get over yourself, stop taking people questioning what you say as some personal attack....I am sure it was not the 1st time and it will definately won't be the last time either....

Ihope you're not saying that because a player has been traded often, that it's because he is a locker room cancer. There have been many players in every sport that have played for 6-7 teams, for whatever reason. Some just can't land a home.
Funny how you forgot to mention Darryl Strawberry defends him.
Torre ‘was great to me,’ Strawberry says - Baseball - MSNBC.com
IMO, Strawberry has more character than Shefield or Lofton.

HERE TO HELP YOU!
Cutting Edge
Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

LOL. It depends if the person saw it during the years when they were actually still available which is 1968 to 1983 meaning the person could be 43-58 years old or they can even be a few years old if they learned to read and write at a young age and actually saw a telephone with that label somewhere recently just like even here in San Francisco, payphone still exist physically in public places but whether they can be used or not is a different issue. It still looks like this even today:
I opened my Radio Shack in Sept 1984 and right about that time they did the whole deregulation thing with the phone companies. I bought TONS of those phones that had been refurbished with a new outer shell. You could throw one of those out of a 3 story high window and it would still work.
That was an interesting time in history. I would have older customers come in and ask about phones.....they were terrified that they were going to get into trouble hooking up a second phone without the phone company knowing about it. One of the funniest episodes of WKRP was the one where Johnny thought the cops were showing up because they had an unregistered phone. I guess younger folks can't conceive of a time when you were limited to the number of phones you could have in your house....and limited to the length of the cord

My OTA is not working anymore. This started after the latest update. I have the OTA dongle with a OTA antenna that I've been using for years. My hopper does not recognize the dongle anymore and when I go to the OTA setting, it has a screen that says to plug a dongle into the USB. I tried unplugging and plugging back, in the same usb port and other ports. The Hopper does not recognize it. Anyone have same issue?

Did you people having this issue contact Brittany yet? Shes trying to keep track of things and it would be good for you to contact her as maybe she can get this somewhere and get fixed.
Now while unofficial, I am hearing this issue wasn't caused by DISH's software team, but was caused by a chipset driver update that seemes to have hosed some older USB devices. If this is indeed the case I can see why DISH didn't know and why they are slow in fixing it as they need the chipset company to fix its drivers and release them to DISH so they can be pushed out to all.
DISH does not hate you guys nor do they want you to buy new USB dongles. I am rather sure they didn't even know this was an issue until they saw it posted.
Again contact Brittany if you are having this issue, so she has your info and hopefully she can do something for you to keep you happy.

Thanks, but until they do, can't Dish just revert to the old driver that worked? Then test the new driver when delivered,d before pushing it again.Did you people having this issue contact Brittany yet?

But then what does an old CIO know! I've only reamed quite a few buttholes from my people that didn't do that!

It's dead, they just don't know it yet. They killed it by forcing DRM on it, and that TOTALLY botched implementing it.
There is absolutely NO compelling reason for anybody to switch to ATSC3.0. They only want it as a total and complete money grab.
