Carmona versus Olson. I filled in some stuff from the AP game preview to make it to 75 words. Discuss
It may be too late to make a difference, but the Cleveland Indians are getting healthy again. They’re just wondering what might have been had the injuries not piled up in the first place.
Victor Martinez will look to continue his hot hitting and Fausto Carmona will try for his fourth straight victory on Monday when the Indians open a four-game road set against the hapless Baltimore Orioles, losers of eight in a row.

IF WE WIN I WILL EAT MY SKI HAT
Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.

If we lose, Millar will eat your ski hat. A little salt, some barbecue sauce, side o' fries-- 's nothin'.

Yikes, listening to the Sawx announcers is like reading AMA.
“Underinformed homers” sums it up. And with accents.
It’s like Russian coverage of international soccer matches, which I tend to watch on TV with the sound off.
3-0 Sawx after 5.

Lie down, apply cold compresses (if available), drink plenty of fluids and it should pass in 4-6 hrs.
There is no known cure, but several over the counter medicines relieve many of the symptoms: try Jim Beam, Johnnie Walker and Yukon Jack.

from a rock station near 1350. Right now I’m getting Joe Angel alternating with 3 Dog Night doing “Mama Told Me Not Come” — which is absolutely true for most nights at OPACY.
