Mark Teixeira is going to the Yanks. Fine, well and good - they’ve committed over $400 million to three players and have done all they could to contend in 2009. It doesn’t guarantee anything so I try not to get worked up over it.
The Mets made two huge moves - HUGE - to address the bullpen, but they have a chance to go the extra mile now and wrap up Manny Ramirez and Derek Lowe/Ben...

I almost feel guilty for driving any traffic to her, but apparently she’s already pretty popular anyway. Do you remember 2004, when Bush won and conservatives were telling everyone to “stop bitching”? Well, keep beating that “Obama is not a U.S. Citizen” drum, guys, because that’s going places.

Let's try this again.
I’m moving my big AJ Burnett dissertation to the blog, because it goes against the spirit of what I’m doing here, that being: not being so fucking long-winded.

Well, that turned the day around quick.
The Teaching Fellows program just informed me that I’ve made it to the interview stage.
I’m still sticking with my hail mary metaphor because, well, I like it.
I root for the rain.
I am scared of the things upcoming And I want for the things I don’t have Cannot stand to be one of many I’m not what they are

leitch:
I have decided that, when I have an extra ticket to a sporting event, I am not going to “scalp” it. I am now going to “Blago” it. I think it could catch on.
