I have the RSN feed tonight so I don’t have as much to talk about. They’re not nearly as annoying as Hunter and Buck.

is that the blue jays feed?
that’s what’s on mlb.tv
the color guy spends the whole game stating the obvious in a very folksy way.
“see, what you WANNA do, you WANNA try to MAXIMIZE your opportunities at the plate”. that kinda thing.
But he’s not annoying, more just harmless.

They’re pretty similarly shitty. Parrish has a better power arm, Burres has better breaking stuff. But as far as effectiveness goes, they both just suck, so big whoop.

I think you’re going to lose your bet, Z.

Look at the bright side: You can't see my underwear.
Or smell ‘em.

At least the Rays are getting the shit kicked out of them...
And the MFY lost.

Well, I think I'll be taking a break for a while...
the all-star break can’t get here soon enough.

that said...
I’m still not giving up on this team, I made it through ‘88, I can make it through this, I just have to think about Jones and Markakis growing into really good players…

At least we probably won't get swept in Boston...

knowing this team...
they’ll wind up sweeping the Red Sox or some ridiculous shit like that.

I have to say I would bet a whole lot of money against that happening.
As much as I would enjoy losing the cash if they did it.

and if it's any consolation, Rauch is currently blowing a game for the Nats.

It's not
because I’m about three losses away from “lose for Strasburg” mode

So I'm monitoring this game
via cellphone updates at a hotel bar in Pittsburgh. Yankees, lose, THHHHEEEEE Yankees lose, and I see the O’s are up 4-2 late in the game. Then it’s 5-4, it’s the 9th, I’ve got 3 screwdirvers in me, what the hell? Shutdown’s gonna close it out. He’s a fuckin’ All-Star, right?
WHAT THE FUCK HAPENED, SHUTDOWN? I became that angry drunk no one wants to be around. And I’m sitting around 3 other board members of the non-profit I’m on (with now 4 screwdrivers in me). Yeah, me shouting “What the fuck, Shutdown?” in a hotel bar after a PIT win over the Yankees went over REAL well. That fourth screwdriver? That was angry drinkin’ there, let me tell ya.
