Me too

Although even if I wasn’t, I probably would have turned off this ridiculous game by now.

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 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.

Complete Game!

Has a pitcher ever pitched a complete game and given up at least a run every inning?

Burres is the man!

I can't believe Brian Burress pitched 5 innings.

Orlando Cabrera is sure as hell picking up my fantasy team tonight, though.

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.

Sigh.
