I got nothing. Except an order where after it was taken, we could hear the person who made the order cursing at his kids. Yeah, we're always listening. AND WATCHING.
In the sixth, the Rangers have the lead 4-3 in a back-and-forth game six in some more small ball, but good pitching recoveries by Jaime Garcia and a managing gaffe by Ron Washington has kept the Rangers from blowing this game wide open. Right now, it's the top of the sixth. Let's go Rangers!
Grienke is a Milwaukee Brewer.
But of course, most of the folks in Wisconsin are probably too concerned with whether the Packers will get a playoff spot or not, right now.
Hey folks. Been a while. A long while. So long that the last article I had included mentioning Carl Crawford. He's not even relevant now, which is probably the reason the Bo-Sox are watching the Postseason from their couches rather than the diamonds. So I guess it's time to head into recap mode while I watch the Brew Crew tie the NLCS versus them stinkin' 'Birds. (Wish I had SPIRIT do one of them speedy, high-pitched voice "WE WIN" videos to give me a hand. Pre-All-Star Break:Yo the injuns are
At Miller Park in 2010, Hoffman made his legendary 600th save, a mark never reached before by any player in baseball history, and the only other player close to it is Mariano Rivera. Hoffman made his 600th save with the Milwaukee Brewers, but he made his career primarily with the San Diego Padres. Hoffman's record will almost assuredly land him in the National Baseball Hall of Fame, but then again, even his predecessor as the all-time saves leader, Lee Smith, has not yet been placed on a plaque
(As you guys know, I enjoy writing about sports, and plan to be a sportswriter in the future. I recently wrote an article about a minor league hockey game I went to. I've replaced a few words so that you can't know where I live, and I've surrounded those in brackets. A few of the replacement names have some significance, particularly of those who fought each other, but most of them are just random things that popped into my head.)
The first ever team of playoff-bound [Ko-Metru Seers] began t
During this years' baseball season, KIE set up a fantasy baseball league for us. I did pretty well, but I was disappointed in my finish because I could have finished higher if there was a Wild Card.
Here are the final rankings:
1. Toronto Huskies
2. Moss Bluff Cruisers
3. Tinley Park Rynos
4. Eau Claire Blugolds
5. Farmville Feminists
6. Spartan Six
7. Florence Platypi
8. Buffalo Wings
Now, here are the owners of those teams, in alphabetical order, rather than their teams' record
You guys know ought to know which teams are in it, I don't need to tell you. My prediction is the team not named Rangers in six. Now if you don't mind, I'll go away and mourn my misfortune. Nobody knows the trouble I've seen. Nobody knows the sorrow...
Today's my eighteenth birthday. Woot. ... I just thought I'd mention it. ... ... Y'know, just in case somebody wanted to make a birthday topic in GD about it. ... Oh, hey! Howyadoin. Whassup? What's that? You want to be the one to make the topic? Well that's great! Can't wait. ... ... No need to take your time, y'know, half the day's already gone. Twelve more hours and my birthday will already be over. Hurry it up!
The Blackhawks close out the preseason 3 and 4 with a 4-3 win over the St. Louis Blues. All four goals came in the second period, while Marty Turco allowed one goal in the second period and two in the third. The Blackhawks have yet to get comfortable with Turco's style of play, but once they do, the Norris Trophy winning Duncan Keith, his partner on defense Brent Seabrook, and the best puck-moving goaltender in the NHL, Marty Turco, will form what is sure to be one of the most powerful defenses
TOMORROW!
TOMORROW, BASEBALL SEASON'S UNDERWAY.
SO YOU BETTER GET READY FOR A BRAND NEW DAY!
HEY CHICAGO WHADDYA' SAY?
THE CUBS ARE GOING TO WIN TODAY!
Ignoring the fact that the Cubs first game is actually on April 1st, not March 31st. Which makes April 1st the second Greatest Day in All of History.
Both of these teams are lucky to be here. The Giants beat Mat Latos and the Padres on the last day of the season, eliminating the Padres and winning the West for San Francisco, as well as the Wild Card for the Atlanta Braves. Now the two will face off at AT&T Park for what will probably be the right to face the Phillies and Roy Halladay, the man who no-hit the Cincinnati Reds yesterday. So it looks bleak even for the team that wins this series, but even the mightiest of teams can be taken do
Thank the Lord my dad kept watching so I could know about Hamilton's homer. BUT QUIT GIVING ME A HEART ATTACK, TEXAS! I HAVE ENOUGH OF THOSE IN THE REGULAR SEASON WITH THE CUBS!
This was announced by Cubs blog today. I guess the Winter Classic and Wrigleyville Classic convinced the Cubs that they need to have a basketball game in Wrigley also:
One of the nice things about turning eighteen is that I'll finally get to vote. Unfortunately, since I live in what can be determined as a red county, the only thing I can really help determine is my representative and president. Since I was still seventeen during the Illinois primaries, my representative in Springfield has practically been determined already, and my state senator ran completely unopposed. All other offices lacked Democratic candidates, though there is a Green Party candidate fo
None, says Doc Halladay, as he no-hits the Cincinnati Reds in the second ever no-hitter in Postseason history, preceded only by Don Larsen's perfect game. Halladay also has his second no-hitter this year, his first being his perfect game against the Marlins, and this one would have been a perfect game were it not for Jay Bruce's walk--the only blemish of the night.
I myself was watching the game from the start. I always jokingly say the first time anyone gets on base "There goes the perfect g
