while i like the leadoff switch
why is blalock above cruz again? or was it my imagination that cruz was hitting 5th.

Doubt...
it was the “chat session”, but it’s a step in the right direction.
Still no Board Game though.

I say for every game Board Game misses in the last 2 weeks because of injury MY should get to go up to him and kick him square in the balls and say “all you have to do is fucking DH”.

Naw, it's not the chat session
It’s the presence of Boggs in the lineup that gives RW another supposed “speed factor” to put up there.
My question is why the F do I have to watch Laird catch – AGAIN???

That would be awesome!
And believe it or not, it would be the first game in years where I didn’t have to take care of a kiddo. I always take my nephews to games and end up in line for snacks or taking them to the bathroom and miss like 7 innings, lol.

It would be a lot of fun
Getting TO Texas is never a big deal for me. It’s getting around once I get there that tends to be a pain in the butt. I either have to rent a car (tough because I have no credit card and the places I can afford won’t take debit) or beg a friend to drive me around. It’s rather annoying.

Speaking of vampires ...
… you and Jon were raving about that “Moonlight” show, so I have all these Pepsi Points on Amazon that you can turn in for free TV downloads, and I love vampire themed stuff. So I downlaoded the pilot … the woman who plays that Beth chick is an awful actress! I didn’t like her one bit. I liked everyone else though. But please tell me she does a better job, or I may not download the rest.

“His ERA is still over 5 since the all star break, its not just his first couple outings.

granted 8 runs against the rangers happens.. a lot.
