That is a really freaking weird cartoon. Moving on...
Sweet, sweet win last night. Melky with the game-saving catch, Wang pitched well (almost undone by shoddy D earlier in the game, but held it together), Bernie somehow hit a HR batting left handed (!) and it was the Sox, not the Yanks, who made a poor defensive play that resulted in a loss.
edit: and how could I forget Manny's baserunning? Anytime Damon throws you out, you done ****ed up.

The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

Oh, man, HUGE steroid/HGH/greenie scandal is about to break. And to think, Jason Grimsley (a mediocre relief pitcher) is the key. Apparently, some 100 players may have been named.
I really, really, really hope that my favorite players aren't users. I know that it's very likely some are, and just about guaranteed that some on the Yankees (my favorites or not) are (Giambi, for instance, is a known cheater in the past, and it's entirely possible he's still cheating).

It won't get everyone, but it's still a good thing. Grimsely has played for a lot of teams, and apparently dropped a lot of names, including suppliers/middlemen. If the suppliers & middlemen get leaned on and start talking, hooooo boy!

If any of my favorite cardinals are hit, then I am out for a wihle. I just won't friggin care anymore.
Dan Patrick was apparently told 3 names. Two were superstars and the other was a real shock (at least that's how I recall it) Yikes.
If its pujols, then.....I'll be soo sad. Won''t name my first born son alberto.

The question is, if EVERYONE essentially was a user, do we do anything about it (anything meaningful)?
If say 70% of MLB used something illegal ... do we start running the game with AA and AAA players?<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.
I like your SNOOPY POSTER! - While you Wait quote.

Good question.
I think no... mass suspensions, followed by a new policy of taking both urine and blood samples and *saving them* for later testing (like, for instance, when a HGH test becomes available).

Is there a more exciting player in MLB right now than Phillies 1B Ryan Howard?
He won rookie of the year last year playing only 2/3 of a season
This year so far: 21HR 53RBI BA .292
Most of his HRs are opposite field
Hits some incredibly long shots for HRs - has the longest shot in the majors this year - 491 feet in Philly earlier this year.... he hit a 452-ft shot in Arizona last night..
Most HRs in May for a second-year player in MLB History
His 8 errors lead MLB 1B's - but, hey, errors are exciting too..
He deserves to be named to All-Star team.Last edited by Brundlefly; June 8, 2006, 09:32.

Sounds good.
Other cool rookies (AL):
Papelbon (BOS) - flat nasty
Verlander (DET)
Zumaya (DET)
Liriano (MIN)
Hernandez (SEA) - although in a bad way so far...
And of course I'm loving Melky, even though I know darned well his performance doesn't match up with the likes of Howard. He's still been fun to watch!
