Some stuff
Things I thought I'd share...
John Sickels is doing an "All Questions Answered" thread, answering any questions that are asked on that thread before 5 p.m. Central time (one question per person, and no multiple-part questions). If you want to throw a question out there, please make sure you don't duplicate a question already asked, since there are quite a few Rangers questions up already...
BTF has a link to an article about the assistant g.m. of a minor league team getting canned for smoking weed at the stadium. There are 690 comments, which I'm not reading, but I'm guessing involve a spirited debate about the wisdom or harm of the herb...
FJM still hates Jay Mohr. However, if you follow the link to the new Mohr piece, the comments are pretty funny, with a mix of "you suck" and "quit hatin' on the Slam Man!!!" posts from various folks...
FJM also has some love for Evan Grant, in their "semi-annual-non-negative-post"...
A Rangers press release notes that Julio Borbon is third on the all time University of Tennessee triples list. Woot.

The Sickels AQA is awesome...I had to think awhile for a question that hadn't already been asked.

Huh.
But it's not specifically announcing he's up with the ML club, is it?

Julio Borbon
EG in the DMN blog explains ...
http://rangers.beloblog.com/archives/2007/08/borbon_straight_up.html
Could someone smarter than me explain this excerpt:
3. Because of the timing of the contract, Borbon essentially has four years of minor league options built in. And since the Rangers can recall him with the instructions not to report on Sept. 1 when rosters can be expanded, he would potentially not be out of options until the start of the 2012 season. He would be 26 by then, so the Rangers should have a good idea of what they have.

"Let's go Mark T"... that was just to lolers stupid. Since most of us have been calling him Tex since the day we drafted him.

Jay Mohr
But Adam is right...I got enough chuckle out of some of the comments that it almost made up for the 60 seconds of my life wasted on reading Mohr's article in the first place.
I like how one commenter says "FJM owns you, Mohr" and then Mohr himself posts a comment asking "so...what is FJM?"

The comments are great
Yeah, those jokes must have flown over my head.

Mohr
But man, that article was painfully hackneyed. So was the other one, although, contrary to FJM, I think IROC jokes are still funny:
What does IROC stand for?
Italian Retard Out Cruising...
The comments were good though, mainly because all his supporters seemed to be Jim Rome Clone douchebags. My favorite comment, however, was from this lady:
"Nice article slam man. "Are you always this on-fire?" P.S.-Congratulations on landing the role of Larry Birkhead in the new Anna Nicole Smith movie."
What I don't get is, he has to know these columns are complete clankers. Why keep on?
