Welcome back, Brian
Didn’t take you long to get back into the swing of things.

Don't count me
I don’t want to watch this game.
I'm actually watching the DNC
Hey, I’m a history teacher. So sue me.

The shittiness with which Burress is pitching looks awfully familiar. Like I've seen it before...
Thank god I’m heading out to a softball game right now and will be unable to watch the remainder of this abortion.
Burres knows how to turn it up
I’M STILL WAITING, BRIAN BURRES’ WIFE OR WHATEVER

I wish Brian Burres would grow a spine
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

you're 9-9 so far
and he’s thrown precisely half the pitches that beachball burres has
History is best forgotten, even better rewritten
Since we can't forget it, lets remember it different ~ John Rueben
i'll be around
and every time burres gives it up i’ll post another dumbass
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.
Complete Game!
Has a pitcher ever pitched a complete game and given up at least a run every inning?
Burres is the man!
This has not been good.
But it’s giving me time to put together a birthday gift for my nephew of a whole bunch of late 80s-mid 90s Cal cards…

oh come on.
that wasn’t much of a strike.

which granted is 13" Sanyo from 1995-ish.

watching it on my 14" monitor (mlb.tv)

Seriously
when did Brooks Robinson’s DNA get mixed in with Joe Crede?

I can't believe Brian Burress pitched 5 innings.
Orlando Cabrera is sure as hell picking up my fantasy team tonight, though.

Nice play, Aubrey.
You play a great 3B for a DH.

Hurry up, we need help!
On the farm tonight so far:
Tillman 6 IP, 8 K, 2 BB, 4 H, 0 R
Erbe 6 IP, 7 K, 1 BB, 1 H , 0R
Wieters 1-2, 1 BB
Snyder 2-4, 1 2B
Rowell 2-3
2010 is going to be really awesome.

Only if Andy makes some tough decisions
Don’t try to compete next year. Trade Huff, shop Roberts and Cabrera.
let's go Rays.
Get to Halladay, please.

can’t wait for Adam Jones to get back, so he can move over to left again.

whoa, nice play, Cintron.

Just stopped by to see if we're sucking. And we are. Bye. Back to Yerks-Sawx
and the desperate battle for third.
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.
These past few weeks have been sort of depressing
I’ve already accepted that the collapse has already begun, and expect this team to lose every game from here on out.
Pessimism is Birdland.
Sigh.

I feel like a Cubs fan.
Wait ’til next year…

Two years
Remember, the plan is 2010

I know...
but maybe next year we can break out this 10+ years of losing thing.

Don't count on it.
