"In field in. In field out. In field Normal."

  • It's nice to know Tony LaRussa and Scott Rolen have given each other a symbolic pat on the ass after all the hoopla surrounding LaRussa benching Rolen during the post-season. The way I see it, Tony did what he needed to do during a pivotal point in the team's season. He put his team first and benched a slumping player, even if the slumping player is a star. It worked out for Rolen. He didn't go hitless for the remainder of the games he played.

  • Speaking of the post season, I was wondering what the Mets players had to say about Beltran freezing like a popsicle in Antarctica by that last pitch Wainwright threw in game 7 of the NLCS. Now I know. It made me grin to myself. Wickedly.

  • I can't wait to see Jennifer Hudson win her Oscar.

  • There needs to be someone who invents jeans that do not get a hole near the crotch (aka the "crotchage area"). Do you know how many pairs of jeans those holes have cost me?

  • What would they call those jeans?

  • Kevin Slaten is the spawn of Satin. (And it is not a coincidence that rhymes)

  • Forget managerial genius, LaRussa has become a comedic genius. Try to see if you can spot the one liner LaRussa quipped in response to a thumped Eckstein.

That's all!

Spring is in the Air

Spring Training is baaaaaaaaaaaack. Ah, the warmth of the sun mingled with the fresh air is, as Borat would say, VE-RY NIIIIIIIICE.

Joined a Fantasy Baseball league. I fear for my pride.

Britney Spears is a DUI and a court battle away from Anna Nicole Smith.

Me and the sis purchased tickets to the Cards vs. Mets game in NY City [in June]! Can't wait to blog blog blah-og about that! Hope I don't get my ass kicked.

Meredith is near death on Grey's! FUN STORY! plus, I hear they're making a spin-off of Grey's for Addison. No change. I don't like change. Keep Addison on Grey's. :(

Jim Rome's voice hurts my head. He sounds like someone taught him how to talk the wrong way. Like, he's doing it in the most uncomfortable way possible. Doesn't it hurt him when he talks? The strain of his voice exhausts me.

Nascar, Bowling and Poker should not be on ESPN or ESPN2. There should be an ESPN 8 reserved for them.

Who cares if A-Rod and Jeter aren't fishing , making s'mores, or having pillow fights together anymore?

Jim Rome should consider a profession where people don't actually have to hear him, or see him. That goatee is so 1995. We've already discussed the voice.

Like everyone else, I am going to die. But the words – the words live on
for as long as there are readers to see them, audiences to hear them. It is
immortality by proxy. It is not really a bad deal, all things considered.
