Currently the Nationals have the highest hapless rating.
Awww, poor little pooties! I will add them to my pity cheer list.
There may be no crying in baseball generally, but there is totally crying in my version of baseball fandom.
1: no one.
Yeah, but some of them are so pretty. The A's in particular seem to have an unusual number of players that make you want to muss their hair and tickle them and feed them big nourishing bowls of pasta. They're not in the same class as the SPN boys (as who is, really?), but they're very appealing.
As a side note to baseball, the Brooklyn Cyclones are going to have a special night, with bobbleheads. Bobble ... um, whatever ... of the Brooklyn Bridge. WANT.
Ugliest baseball player in history: [link]
COOP made blog post celebrating Don Mossi, a quite unusual-looking fellow who played professional baseball from 1954 to 1965. Apparently, he was nicknamed "The Sphinx" and "Ears." As Mark F. said, he'd have been a great character actor. From Wikipedia, here is what baseball historian Bill James said about Mossi:
"Don Mossi was the complete five-tool ugly player. He could run ugly, hit ugly, throw ugly, field ugly and ugly for power. He was ugly to all fields. He could ugly behind the runner as well as anybody, and you talk about pressure ... man, you never saw a player who was uglier in the clutch."
I'm feeling needy. What did people think of my hair links?
Though I gotta admit, #8 is HIGH-larious.
But it's a lie. You never have to root for the Yankees. Ever. You always root for whoever is playing against them. Always.

attempts to avoid mentioning I know where to find good baseball slash. yes. attempts it.
Even I feel bad for the Royals, and I'm not sporty at all. But I don't feel bad for the Chiefs.
I am done with school for the summer! Regular school, I mean. But I have 5 WHOLE DAYS off before I go to summer school orientation, and I am so happy. And we are going to get paid for planning units for next year at home this summer!! Yeah, getting paid for something I do already!
I want:
1. My student loans to disappear.
2. A magic door that whenever I open it, a new good book falls out.
3. My fucking car back.
Oh! Speaking of cars, someone used our school parking lot last night to strip a stolen car in! We watched the whole thing on CC video this morning. We all drove in to see this totally stripped car sitting forlornly in the middle of the lot. Guess they didn't see the VIDEO CAMERA pointed right at them!. Funny thing is, if they'd parked about ten feet over, they'd have been out of range.
We are going to get a storm, I think. It's almost black out, and muggy as hell.
Oh, Plei. You probably wrote some Kissinger/Ruth back in the day.
Or yesterday.
Nah. I'm a HK/Satan = OTP4EVAH!!!1! kinda gal.
I like #1.
It's also my haircut, but slightly longer.
