I'm thinking cage match, greased up

That is so exactly how they should decide who gets to be chief.

Our wings are not tired.

Go Fish! The Marlins should do well enough. I should go see them sometime to be all supportive and stuff.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I won't get to see a lot of Mets games for at least the beginning of the season, because two of the cable companies here in New York are having a feud over how much one charges the other to carry the games.

Also, I agree that the Nationals is a stupid name for a team.

I can't even.

They were under that last year? Huh. My league awareness has been kinda poor -- the only person I can name on the D-Rays is Carl Crawford. I don't even know who plays for TOR right now. I guess nobody remarkable?

They lost over 700 games to injury last year, thus the poor record. The Jays current stars (with the departure of Carlos Delgado to FLA) are Vernon Wells, the 04 AL gold glove CF and Roy Halliday, the 03 AL Cy Young winner, who struggled with injury last year. I think the Jays will be decent this year if they get enough starts from Halliday and Lilly, but they won't be able to replace Delgado's power with the Koskie and Hillenbrand signings.

Nationals is a stupid name for a team.

Congress should intervene.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

As long as they don't change the name to the Washington Reagan Nationals.... t /joke I stole from someone else

Not that I will get to see Pedro start today, then, because somehow the schedulers forgot that some fans have to, like, work for a living.

Not TRUE FANS!!1!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

As long as they don't change the name to the Washington Reagan Nationals....

How about the Washington Insiders?

Ooh, the Insiders -- that's a good name.

Okay, if it couldn't be the Senators, then is should have been the Nationals.

When I saw something about a Nationals game on the scroll at ESPN2 it took me a second to realize that they meant the new team.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yeah, Nationals does sound like the kind of name chosen because nobody hated it, as opposed to anyone liking it.
