    ...do you get a ring for that?...didn't think so.

    ...sorry for venting, but I'm so tired of these premature celebrations.

    ...seriously, I don't know which is more lame;

    1. premature clubhouse celebrations, or

    2. Miley fucking Cyrus.

    I'd have to put Miley first. Her parents must be real proud. One day she's going to trip while she's got that damn tongue hanging out & bite it off. And to think as Hanna Montana she was a cute kid. Now all she is is a sad attention seeking little pig.

    Celebrating the World Series win is the best celebration, celebrating a pennant is worthwhile as well. More lame than the other celebrations, Justin Bieber gets my vote.

    I agree. It's ridiculous to celebrate every single thing. If you win the CS or WS then fine. No other sport celebrates winning a first round like that.

    ...yup, the whole idea is to win the WS but I suppose I can understand celebrating winning the pennant...but whooping and hollering over winning a divisional series or a one game WC playoff game?...please.

    Her parents only care about the money, it's sickening.

    ...Miley is about as artistically gifted as her no-talent Father.

    Not a Billy Ray Cyrus fan but as a Vietnam Vet I will step up and say BRC has done a lot for Viet Nam Vets to include staking round trips to the Viet Nam Memorial for those who could not afford the trip. For those actions he has earned my respect.

    I stand corrected, I wasn't aware that he had been so involved. Anyone who does anything in this world for the Vets or Kids has my respect. Thanks 5545.

    I joined in 1972 & was fortunate enough where I was never in danger. I never left the states. So as I thank all my VFW post members & vets every where may I also thank you.

    As far as Billy Ray, he only hand a hand full of hits but because of his work with the vets he'll ALWAYS have my respect.
