It must be the lousy reception. I need a new service provider.

No, but it does have a couple of young decent left handed pitchers wearing black and orange. Oh, and seats that haven't had their prices jacked up by 40% in a single year. Oh well.

Here's my wild-ass prediction/fanatasy: in the middle of June A-Rod fouls a ball off his left foot and breaks it, and while he eventually comes back, he's never quite the same, and falls into obscurity by 2006. Meanwhile, Soriano cranks up in 2005 and starts a ten year streak of at least 50 home runs and 50 steals, going down as one of the greatest players the game has known, and this trade goes down as the biggest bone-head move in Yankee history, comparable to Baltimore's Schilling trade back in the day.

Hey, it could happen.

The ONLY aspect of this trade that appeals to me is the slight possibility that they won't win the World Series. It would be the biggest choke. Ever. Norman at Augusta with a 6-stroke lead level of choke. What a glorious day indeed that would be.

Actually, any team can be beaten in a 5-game series.

Or perhaps Balt is confusing NYC with Atlanta. Any player we pick up fails to perform at the level he did for the team he left. And every player we trade goes on the do wonderful things with his new team and smoke us when we play opposite.

The Yankees, on the other hand, could pick up a dead man who would proceed to hit .357. They could also trade a superstar who would develop an allergy to leather and grass and a fear of baseballs as soon as he starts playing for his new team.

It ain't fair, but it is what it is.

I think that was her point, too.

It is only a spoiler if you don't care to know about the peni of former Real World cast members (he he). Here it is from realityblurred:

Apparently, being an MTV celeb hasn't helped The Real World New Orleans David Broom get any action. He was so hard-up -- literally -- for human affection that on Wednesday, he paid $10 for oral sex. Or, according to an awesome sentence in the police report, he "placed his penis in the mouth of Liza Gorges in exchange for $10." And yes, her name is actually Gorges. The blow-- er, penis placement -- took place near where North Avenue intesects with the Kennedy in Chicago. According to our good friends at The Smoking Gun, which obtained the police report, David is scheduled to appear in court in March.


I guess things didn't work out with the semester-at-sea (I think) RRer after the challenge last year.

Now, hockey, which I also do not understand - there's a sport. I like watching the goalies throw down their equipment, which takes a good 10 minutes, circle each other to the tune of we will we will rock you, and then beat the shit out of each other.

Nice to see that you have caught at least one Thrashers game in the past couple of weeks. We appreciate your support. If we put as much effort into playing consistent good hockey as we do acting like goons we might make the playoffs.

That's the cheapest blow job ever. I'll bet she was so gorges as to not have any teeth.

For a blowjob, that's all good.

I haven't but I will, it sounds fun. The game I attended was actually a Hershey Bears game. They were playing a philly team, the phantoms or something like that (no not the Flyers.)

You Yankee fans should be embarrassed. I'd be embarrassed if I was playing in an 8 and under baseball league. That's basically what the Yankees are doing. It's like Kramer kicking every kid's ass in karate class.

Or, as The Onion puts it.

...since there will be absolutely no alcohol served to deaden the pain. Oh, and no dancing. Or fun. At least with the no dancing, it will be short.

Is there any reason I should avoid wearing chiffon to an afternoon wedding?

I can think of two good reasons for not going at all.

I've been invited to two weddings which were alcohol free on religious bases*, and refused both on principle, without explantion. I just RSVP'd "Nope, not coming." Its a complete social lapse to inflict your views - which are entirely out of sync with most of society - on your guests. There are only two good things that happen at a wedding - getting drunk and dancing. Eliminate them and there's no point. I'm no wasting my afternoon for any asshole rude enough to indirectly prostheletize to me. Have a nice day with Jesus, asshole... I'll catch up on some houswork that Saturday.

* I understand alcohol free weddings where one or some of the wedding party are overcoming alcoholism. That's entirely excusable, and, in fact, it would be rude not to go.

Religious fundamentalists. There should also be no jewelry.

Why no jewelry? Aside from the Amish (whom I don'tmind because they tend to be pretty damn friendly and generally of the "live and let live" mindset), I've never known of any Jesus Freaks who decry jewelry.

What on Earth is the basis for an anti-jewelry stance?

Not that I think e/o will actually take the advice to say "Have a nice day with Jesus, asshole," I have to say, e/o, that this seems like it might damage your relationship with your in-laws. Now, since they apparently don't drink or dance, perhaps they deserve to be shunned forevermore. But they are family . . . so you might want to think a bit on it.

Just a suggestion.
