A lot of those old cigarette ads are mind-blowing. I have seen numerous variations of ads where doctors were endorsing Camels. Unbelievable by today's standards. I started smoking around 1993 and 1994 and wasn't exposed to cigarette ads on television. I was pretty sickened to recently see an old cigarette ad featuring The Flintstones, a cartoon I used to love when I was a kid. Really sickening.

NOPE - smoking sucks!

26,598 - yikes.

You are doing a great thing, Juan. Keep up the awesome work.

NOPE!

Congratulations Lilly. I'm glad that you are seeing a lot of benefits to quitting. Things should continue to improve with time. Keep up the great work.

Congratulations on your first month smoke free, @mightyboosh Thanks for sharing your quit journey with us and for all your contribute to the board. Keep up the great work!

Keep up the great work, Juan!

Cubs drop third straight to the division leading St. Louis Cardinals and are looking increasingly unlikely to get a wildcard spot. After watching many bad years of Cubs ball when they were out of contention well before September, I'm glad we are still an above average team. I do expect a lot of changes this offseason, though...I don't think Joe Maddon will be back and I could see a few key players possibly being traded. I agree with garry and Boo, though, Acuna is the next big MLB star. Congratulations to Atlanta.
