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!

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…

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

You play a great 3B for a DH.

Don’t try to compete next year. Trade Huff, shop Roberts and Cabrera.

Just stopped by to see if we're sucking. And we are. Bye. Back to Yerks-Sawx
and the desperate battle for third.

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.
