It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The Rangers are destined to become the Buffalo Bills of MLB, and I'll be damned if I'm not okay with that.

The Rattlers have dropped to #2.  :mad:

Quote1   Tampa   30-7   470   1
2   St. Mary's (Texas)   35-7   460   2

Bullshit.

E:  Wait they won again:
QuoteThe Rattlers (36–7), who moved back to No. 1 in the national rankings this week, have to hope Tuesday showed a flash of what would come in such an instance.

Nevermind!  All is well.

Ugh, my fantasy team is sucking as in April.  50% are batting under .250, I've only got one guy with more than 9 RBIs, nobody's getting base so nobody's stealing, a total power failure all-around.

And I don't even want to talk about pitching or the 3 guys on the DL15.

So, when's football?

The Orioles are in first place, quit your whining.

Damn, Texas is leading Detroit 8-0 in the top of the 1st with one out. :pinch:


EDIT: Now two out.

White Sox pitcher Humber is perfect through 8 innings.  It is against the Mariners, but impressive anyway.

Edit 2 down in the 9th

Edit2  what a crazy ending.  Swung at a terrible pitch that would have been ball 4.  Catcher dropped it but threw him out at first to preserve the perfect game.

sbr

Ha, the catcher didn't drop it it should have been a wild pitch.  Ryan looked like he checked his swing but the ump said be went.  Nice play by AJ to make the play.

That was a rather impressive debut by A.J. Burnett for the Pirates.

I think he is going to have a nice year.  Moving back to the NL will help a lot, and I think getting out of the New York pressure cooker will do a lot for him too.  He is still going to have some horrible days but hopefully they are less common.

Me too.  I hate the Yankees more, but Red Sox Nation's tears are scrumptious.
