Oh, and I'm home. Was not greeted with the shotgun.

yeah, I’ve not even considered the Dodgers blowing it. But, man, that would workout great for our pitching rotation. Waino and Mikolas get to go at home. :-) [Reply]

You didn't watch Game 7 of the '96 LCS? Just reverse this game with higher stakes and a more protracted choke job. Awful, just awful. Fucking Osborne. [Reply]
Started watching at work this evening on delay when I got stuck at the office late. Was so satisfying that they were just beating the shit out of the Braves early. [Reply]
