No idea if this Giants team can beat Pirates.

One game is such a crapshoot.

Braves finish 17 back of the Nationals.  :bleeding:

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

So Friday we have Kershaw vs. Waino.  I'm thinking the Cards should have saved Wainwright for Game 2, as it's very likely that the anemic offense will be held scoreless in Game 1.  A 1-0 loss is still a loss.

So the opening game between the Os and the Tigers is the day before my midterm exam.  Fuck.

I think you can manage 3 or so hours' break.

Orioles, Angels, Royals  ... it's like 1979 in the American league all over again.

You sick bastard.

How the hell do you remember stuff from 1979?  :lol:
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

I remember that World Series.  Every damned kid in the neighborhood wanted to be Willie Stargell when we played baseball the next year.
