    These days I don’t often get to root for the better team… Why can’t I also root for the better show?

    twitter will be vigilant against any potential Byg Urb impersonators. Some good comments in the thread:

    La Russa probably uses six lawyers to get through a lawsuit for which most managers would only need three.

    I just watched Fareed Zakaria GPS (with Michael Lewis) on CNN while I ate the vegan pancakes I just made. Now there’s one of the few news shows I can bear to watch, given the coverage of international events, it’s a good choice for those who are looking for more than “LOL Michele Bachmann / Nancy Pelosi”… so it will probably get canceled soon.
    Also I didn’t realize he was a fellow Indian until I just checked out his Wikipedia page.

    Anyone know why there’s no pre-game show on the radio now? No Marty Lurie earlier either…just syndicated Fox Sports national programming.

      I was just going to ask this. The game is at 1, right? I just flipped on the radio and all I have is Lincoln Kennedy talking about hockey.

        Seriously, the game starts in 15 friggin minutes and some generic sports talk guy is droning on about the Lakers.

        I figure some hungover intern at 860 AM forgot to to flip the switch from “national feed” to “A’s broadcast.” In which case, it’s pissing me off, but I do find it amusing to suppose that Ray Fosse has been unknowingly delivering his pre-game remarks anyway, to an audience of two guys in the radio booth and no one else..

          If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is listening, how does it feel?

            I think you mean:

            If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is listening, how awesome does it feel?

    Rich Hill had the same BB rate as Cust last year. Not good.

    Wow…Five and two-thirds innings from Baltimore starters in the series.

      Like all the rest of the season has been with our guys.

    Mazzaro has an interesting delivery — interesting in a good, non-peculiar way. Sort of the clean deliberation of Mulder + the compactness of Hudson.

    The Orioles might be better off with Bell, Barksdale and Stanfield in the 3-4-5 spots in the order. That would be killer.

    So, John Shea — still think Eveland would have been a better choice if the team had been in contention?

    Balls are going to the right spots late in the game.

    It’s nice to have a guy who can just throw it down the middle and gets swings and misses.

  14. FreeSeatUpgrade Jun 7,2009 3:20 pm

    woot!

    Why does Drag me to Hell have a Metascore of 83?

    • monkeyball Jun 7,2009 7:09 pm || Up

      Because they’re including healthcare and pension benefits?

        Site bandwidth charges divided by the number of videos containing the word “hell”
