We’ll throw in Wedgenius to sweeten the pot.

Obviously. They can’t do the little things.
HOLY CRAP JHONNY

We’ll need a lot of points today with Sowers out there.

Jeremy — no pressure: You just need to pitch your first career perfect game no-hitter shutout.

Lazy Third Baseman!

oka question.. if Giminez caught Sower sucessfully in AAA why is he not catching him in the majors… it could hurt right?
I wonder what percentage of total responses to NCTRIB consist of variations on the “… huh?” theme.
I believe in Carl Pavano.
I was just saying that if sowers gives up alot of homeruns and as long as guys are not on base I feel pretty good about it
…huh?
I'm not really into Song of Hiawatha.

Hey he’s batting .500 isn’t he? He’s gotta be okay.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
That’s better than Valbuena! Why the hell is Valbuena even in this game?

Right now I’m pretty upset with baseball as a whole, but this NL thing doesn’t help.
Shin-Soo Choo, future U.S. Citizen.
Me too. I had to read that like three times to get it though. I’m still sick.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
Sore throat still. My fever’s gone but I’m dizzy and I have an off-and-on headache. My friend insists I have mono but I don’t know. If I still feel like this tomorrow I guess I’ll go to the doctor.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
I’ve never had it before but two of my friends had it this past semester and my best friend had it last year so I wouldn’t be too surprised if I had it judging by how I feel. I just don’t know how I would have gotten it. All of them had reasons.

If someone who had it sneezed in your vicinity, you could have inhaled the viral droplets sprayed out in the air. It’s not always transmitted via makeout session.
I believe in Carl Pavano.
I just asked my family to guess who doesn’t care about the White Sox. My brother answers, “Everybody.” Awesome.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
agreed… especially in FIFA 2006 for ps2

Soccer is the only sport I allow looks to affect my allegiances.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
You know, I made a legit effort to come to terms with soccer when I spent a semester in England. It just never stopped looking like a bunch of guys running in circles to me. You must have to grow up with it.
Five Nations Rugby, on the other hand: there’s an international sport I can get behind.

I’m assuming you don’t have the looks factor to keep you interested.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
I don’t, though I support the proliferation of short shorts. If they’re good enough for Magnum, P.I., and professional footballers, they’re good enough for me to go jogging in.

Heh. I played soccer for a couple of years in 4th-5th grade and I completely agree.

I played for two years in primary school as well. My position was “Shin-Kicker.”

I thought you said looks were what drew you to the Indians to begin with, via Grady?
I believe in Carl Pavano.
I think both Lofgren and Gomez are slated to start game 2 of day-night double-headers this afternoon. Scott Lewis is having a good rehab start in Akron.

I think more fans would come out to see him throw than Mike.

But why not? He’s gotta be better than the bullpen. Or at least the same.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
He’d also bring back smoking in the bullpen. And every time he reacted to a hit, we could accuse him of over-acting.
by fleerdon on Jun 21, 2009 3:52 PM EDT up reply actions
Does he smoke? He just dropped a bit in attractiveness.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
A lot of actors do, it makes it easier if/when they have to do it for a role.
Shin-Soo Choo, future U.S. Citizen.
That’s charitable of you. They do it to suppress their appetites and sexify their vocal chords.

Should have been a penalty for that handball.
Trade Cliff.

You know something, even if that Wells line drive had dropped, Gosling made the right pitch. It’s the f’ing opposing pitcher with the based loaded. Get the ball in play.
by fleerdon on Jun 21, 2009 3:59 PM EDT reply actions
still should have subbed him for Adu

Ok, in the last 48 hours I’ve spent 30 hours here at work, in which time I’ve watched MASH at least 7 times.. I’m going home now, you probably won’t here from me agian until Monday.

I didn’t like that game on Sega
by I'd give my legs for Wegz on Jun 21, 2009 4:09 PM EDT up reply actions
The best Genesis games by far were the horrific, blatantly commercial ones. My orthodontist had a Sega arcade machine in the waiting room, and I played Aladdin and that 7-Up game every time just to reflect on how so much work could be put into making something so perplexingly awful.

i used to like to buy really bad super nintendo games for like 1.50 each but then i started realizing none were interesting. Except frantic flea.

That was a screen shot for “Cool Spot” if anybody’s bursting with curiosity to see a 16-bit anthropomorphic 7-up logo.

Doubtful.
I think Shapiro is gonna begin the handing over the keys at the AS Break anyways.

Besides seeing Wrigley’s ivy-covered outfield walls, they would have been better off spending the weekend at Cedar Point.
Wouldn’t “Aside from” be the better way to start this sentence than “Besides”?

hahahaha I love when they do things like this. It kind of takes away any validity they may have seemed to have.
