May 18, 2009 - 9:48 AM Lance Edwards LA MARQUE, Texas (AP) - A man police believed to have been intoxicated died after officers used a Taser to subdue him near Galveston. La Marque Police Chief Richard Price says officers found the man rolling around in a ditch about 10:30 p.m. Sunday. Price says the man fought with three officers when they tried to take him into custody. When the officers used the shock gun on the man, he collapsed and was taken to Mainland Medical Center in nearby Texas City, where he died. Price says the officers were bruised in the fight but were not injured severely. They've been assigned to administrative duties until the investigation is complete. The man's identity hasn't been released. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press.

bring it home!

Beaumont Killer Nanny Goats.

Final, 101-82, Magic roll.

Magic leads, 90-73, 5:11 left in the 4th. this one is OVER.

nah, i don't think so. kobe will step it up now that they have a team that people won't expect them to roll over coming to town.

i would, but i'm already going to the saturday game, and then on to the boats for the rest of the long weekend for my buddy's bachelor party!

get out the brooms! a HUGE sweep of the halos this weekend, and now the rangers are all of a sudden 9 games over .500 for the first time in 4 years, and have a healthy 4 1/2 game lead in their division!!!

i'm afraid the dream ends today, but i'll be honest, i haven't given the rockets a chance all series, and they've continued to prove me wrong. do it again, rockets!

Another HUGE win for the rangers today, 5-3 over the halos.

Rangers beat the Angels tonight! Final was 10-8. The Angels rallied for 5 in the 9th with 2 out, but the Rangers pulled it out. The Rangers have won 5 in a row, 11 out of 13, and 15 out of 20. That's some seriously good baseball, and they're doing it on the strength of some REALLY good starting pitching!

not counting two two-game series that they've split with the A's, the rangers have won 5 straight series in a row, including sweeping the M's this week. if they can keep this trend up and win their upcoming series with with angels, they'll increase their lead.

rangers have won 8 of 10, including a bunch of wins over Seattle who WAS leading the division. they're currently up 1 1/2 games over the angels after two come from behind, walk-off wins in a row against the M's over the past two days!

they traded him in 2001.

i NEVER liked him, and i don't believe he did a very good job, BUT... i felt like he handled 9/11 really well, and i was thankful he was in office during that time.

he's top 10. at times, he plays like a top-5 player, but he's not consistent enough. for instance, he's been a top 5 player in the playoffs this year, IMO.

i hate the heat and humidity! my inlaws in georgia had a high of 74 today....

good point, blue dove. no black man has ever beaten up a white man solely on the basis of race. speaking of living in a dream world...

my thoughts exactly. he's an NBA star!!! i actually know a girl he used to date, and she was SMOKING hot. what's he doing with this chick?

I was pissed! if they win this one, anything can happen. now they're toast.

bingo. very nice post, tvc.

I heard Quannell X is an OU fan....

suing a prosecutor because a grand jury no-billed a case? what a joke. i do like his response to the lawsuit from another news source. "I won't be told when or how to present a case. I won't be told what evidence to give or not give to a grand jury. I also will not be told which grand jury that I can or cannot give a case to."

he would've been better served to separate himself from bush by playing on his reputation as a moderate, rather than suddenly changing stances on several key issues to appease the conservative vote. i think his first fatal mistake was going from a "maverick" to suddenly waffling on many of his policies and ending up looking like Bush, part two. His second fatal mistake was choosing Sarah Palin as a running mate, as it came off appearing as a gimmick pick, especially as her lack of knowledge and abundance of questionable decisions in Alaska began to come to light. I'm a liberal democrat, but when McCain originally threw his name into the hat, I felt like he would be a reasonable option if he won, as he was fairly moderate. As the campaign went on, he seemed more worried about keeping the far-right conservative vote than winning voters that were on the fence.
