Those of you expecting the Astros - White Sox game are watching bonus coverage of game 2 of the Yankees - Marlins game. Gee, thanks ESPN. Thanks so fucking much. What a wonderful bonus that was. Glad that you finally cut away from a boring 5-0 game in front of 100 people at Yankee stadium to the Sox game AFTER Gooch's 7 RBI.

as soon as the Stros went up 9-1 I told my roommate, if they blow this I will refrain from watching them the rest of the season (i'm from Htown, btw)...he told me I'd better watch what I say, because he would hold me to it...long story short, i get to watch the stros for the rest of the season, although now i don't know if thats a good thing...i keep waiting for Drayton to call me up and say, how would you like to pitch for us...i've been practicing how I would snap my neck around after my 70 mph 2 seamer was destroyed by Pujols, watching it slowly drop over the train tracks and calling for a new ball from the ump...

The Cardinals slide has nothing to do with HGH, and everything to do with sucky pitching. Sidney Ponson needs not of "HGH" when lard is perfectly legal over the counter.

cardinals start free-falling in standings when the HGH story breaks...hmmmm, and tony larussa is starting to look like a cocoon-era brian dehenney....

I love seeing Mets backlash! Can the Mets play the rest of their schedule on the road???

YES! There's a Mets backlash, meaning we're finally a real team! Brad Lidge was a great young closer.

The WP told me Livan saw Waist Deep and I just don't get the Tourismo reference, so I am completely missing the funny. Fuck! Not a good start to the day.

re: The Cleveland Indians (throws rope over beam, makes sure the knot is good and tight; puts head in noose) Anyone want to give the chair a good kick?

Really? You don't want to talk about Curtis Granderson some more? (Saw the man in Triple-A last year. Knew once he hit the majors, he was gonna be the balls.)

Can MLB move the Mariners to the NL West, kind of like when the Seahawks got bumped to the NFC? The M's took 2 of 3 from the Whale's Vagina Fathers to raise their interleague record to 10-2. Richie Sexson went 5-for-5 with two homers in yesterday's win, doubling the number of hits he's gotten the entire year. Fun fact: The M's and Pads combined to hit 14 homers at Petco this weekend -- and all of them were solo shots.

Fucking Dan Wheeler. All he had to do was walk Iguchi and I would've had a 10-4 FBBL week shellacking win. One pitch, I end up tied for the week and dropping to fourth. Fucking Dan Wheeler.

Who is this imposter playing shortstop for the Mets and what have they done with the REAL Jose Reyes? He's already passed his 2005 walks and homerun totals and is on pace to break the team single season run scoring record. I hate the Mets!

Oh sure, the O's take 2 of 3 but you have to go and harp on their one loss! Also, the Mets HAVE to start losing. I am friends with waaaaaaaaaaay too many Mets fans to deal with them winning this much. And finally, Stupid Angelos
