Rays (15-12) @ O's (15-12)
Tampa Bay Rays @ Baltimore Orioles
| Today's Starting Pitchers | GS | IP | ERA | WHIP | BAA | BB | K | W-L | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() |
Matt Garza - RH | 3 | 13.0 | 7.62 | 1.92 | .321 | 8 | 6 | 0-0 |
![]() |
Brian Burres - LH | 4 (5) | 25.1 | 2.49 | 1.22 | .233 | 10 | 13 | 3-1 |
Garza still scares the shit out of me. Burres has done a damn good job thus far in 2008. He's starting to grow on me. For reals. I don't say nice things about Brian Burres very often. Take it and love it!

closing on Sundays is ludicrous
I don’t support corporate restaurants anyway, by and large
this is way off topic, sorry

closing a business on Sundays is an archaic practice. I can see closing early, but not even opening to begin with? I just can’t get down with that kind of backwards-ass nonsense
plus, the only times I ever crave Chick Fil A just happen to be Sundays, without fail

Because
When you are driving down the highway, you see a sign for Chick-Filet, you thing “Oh, I could use a milkshake” so you get off at the exit and drive for a mile. And then when you get there its closed, because you forgot that its Sunday and Chick-Filet is closed.
Thats happened to me on multiple occasions and its total bullshit.

sounds to me...
like you should remember they’re closed on Sunday. It’s not their fault you can’t remember… It’s not like they just started the practice or pick and choose which Sunday’s they’re closed. I suppose you dislike it when businesses close on Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Years, Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc,.

that’s different, those only come once a year
it’s OK if the dude who owns Chick Fil A is a super christian, but by closing all franchises on Sundays, it just feels like he’s trying to prove a point, and I find it offputting
I will break my loose semi-boycott and indulge in some Chick Fil A goodness on the way home tonight though, all this talk is making me crave the shit

Not to beat it to death, but I would think closing EVERY sunday would be less annoying than closing on holidays that come once a year. It would be easier to remember than, say, Columbus Day-which my bank closes on.

I worked at CFA for four years in high school/college
The founder of Chick Fil A believes it hypocritical to take Sunday as his day of rest while making his employees work. It’s a wonderful company to work for and they treat their employees well.
Plenty of businesses that are open on weekends take another day off, such as Monday. CFA chooses Sunday because of the value system of the owner, who gives a shit?
Although I totally get the jonesing for CFA on Sunday, because it happens to me all the time.

Its a church-state issue
They shouldn’t be allowed to advertise on federal highway signs if they are going to deny me my right to a milkshake on account of teh Jesus. Either that or they should go out and cover up that portion of the sign on Sundays. What they should not do is lure me off the turnpike with a false siren song, because that burns extra gas and causes global warming.

well...
that’s only because his team gave him the lead… if not, I’m sure he would have been given the chance to go back out there and get HIMSELF a win, no matter what kind of fat pitches he was throwing up there.

I don't like where this is heading
Lose 2 of 3 at home, THEN do a 10-game West Coast trip? Meh.
