You better continue...
to post “bleah” gameday thread ’til the Rangers lose.
It may just be the reason for the first sweep (3 games) of the season.

at least we signed Grella for center mid. We still need a right winger and right back during this transfer window though. There had been rumors of Joaquin for the right wing spot, but seems we aren’t willing to meet Valencia’s price tag.

If Matt Harrison gets 2.2 innings and the LSB Community uses the same standards (130 AB’s or 50 IP), then the next time the Rangers’ prospects are ranked here, Harrison will no longer qualify.

it was an experiment
My buddy’s sister was in town, and we started talking about how much I love doughnuts. So we tried to come up with an even less healthy food. The result was doughnut casserole.
Then it became a mission, of sorts, to make this abomination. So I went to the store and got some supplies.
Here’s how I made it:
1) Mix chocolate pudding with brownie batter.
2) Pour that mess in a casserole dish.
3) Put 3 doughnuts (all that would fit) into the dish, pressing them into the goo.
4) Cookie dough crust on top, of course!
5) Bake until cookie crust is cooked.
6) Cool, eat, and pray.
It was actually pretty damn good…but really really rich and sickening if more than 3 bites are ingested.

We should get Brandon McCarthy one of those
We need to hire Chuck Norris to kick the ass of any Ranger fan caught booing one of our young pitchers at the RBiA.

I pointed him out to my brother the other night, and he volunteered to be McCarthy’s dietary consultant and put some weight on.

If it weren't for our inability to hit Brain Bannisters blazing 89 MPH fastball
He’d be sitting pretty right now.

He always looks like he's on the verge of tears though
Nolan needs to work with him and get him to toughen up. Or maybe Vicente.
Maybe just have him pitch BP to Milton Bradley while Frankie Francisco heckles him.

This is my fault. During the pre-game show they were talking about Bannister and his last ten starts that have not been so good. I turned to my husband and said, “So that means he’s going to shut us down.”

yeah
but its not as painful these days. A-Rod opted out and Cano sucks while Arias finally regains some value.
