Did ya see Hammy and his wife..
in the convertible riding down 6th ave in Manhattan on Fox.
Don’t be liking all that NYC glamour too much Hammy!
Milly I have no choice but to nickname you "The Laborer".
Every time I see you on the mound you're laboring through the inning.
You sure as hell don't labor when you hear Dunkin Donuts is closing in
15 minutes, sat there with a chocolate eclair with 5 minutes to spare.
well remember that according to Kruk
he will be a Yankee in 3 to 4 years anyway

Ive got 7:30 as my guess for actual game starting time.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
what, no concerts? no long speeches and video stuff?
just quickly listing off the participants?
fox surprises me. maybe this will start very quickly after all.

I hope the crowd goes crazy when they introduce Hamilton

The true test: will the Rangers take their hat all the way off, like everyone should?
"But the point is, [Jeff] Mathis is a bush-league uber douche." -lonestarJon
When they're introduced.
You need to take your hat all the way off. Not just touch the brim.
"But the point is, [Jeff] Mathis is a bush-league uber douche." -lonestarJon
ok...is that proper etiquette?
seriously….naive as to that piece of Emily Post minutae
Will the Rangers ever leave +-1 of .500???
As I've been taught...
...that’s the proper, classy action. My dad drilled that in my head.
"But the point is, [Jeff] Mathis is a bush-league uber douche." -lonestarJon
Not that it's that big of a deal now. Just interesting.
"But the point is, [Jeff] Mathis is a bush-league uber douche." -lonestarJon
Marmol
His inclusion on the roster is indicative of the ridiculousness of letting players vote to help pick the reserves.
With Marmol replacing Wood, what’s next? Zito replacing Lincecum?
Will the Rangers ever leave +-1 of .500???
well, while he still shouldnt have gone
i think it should be noted he had a 2.09 ERA a month ago when players were voting. hes blown up since.
still didnt deserve to go, but it wouldnt be as bad.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
so that begs the question:
why the hell are they voting a month in advance? Guess that means we’re watching (well, I’m at work and listening, but whatever) the All Stars from the first 2 months of the season. yawn
Will the Rangers ever leave +-1 of .500???
70 K's in 52 IP
I know he’s been awful the last month or so, but for the first 3 months of the season he was dominant.
I'm undefeated in fights. Have I been in any? No. Thats because people know my f'ing status. Don't mess with the elite. - Miles
