i finally get to see u2 in concert.

this is good to know. i am really enjoying adz and hope he makes it to nashville.

i have a way of believing this and articulating it. you have a way of disagreeing with it.

maybe. but players in prior eras were not as focused on $, which is what I meant.

they used to play more for the love of the game than today's players?

i love his new album but was definitely worried with the report from the show at Indy.

happy belated.

happy birthday.

arcade fire tonight at the Ryman. my first AF show. i do not think there is an opener.

excellent news. daytrotter has an excellent app, which is how i discovered it. nice drawings of the bands as well.

they played nashville this year.

sandberg to head the cubs has been discussed for a while now. i love ryno but really hope they choose someone else. maybe let zambrano player-coach.

agreed. great game. hard to believe papelbon has given up 6 hrs so far this year, which is the most he has ever given up in one season, in only 29 innings.

did you get a real strong pro-kenny rogers vibe your last time to Nashville?

it will definitely be humid and potentially muddy. i cannot wait.

tim kurkjian made the exact point you did last night. If he is safe, he is safe. unfortunately, this was not even a close call.

who knew hanley was such a jackass? he called out his manager for never having played in the majors and justified his play by saying the rest of the team is dogging it as well.

i agree on the black keys' new album. i also like the new josh ritter.

agreed. i found it very enjoyable.

that is awesome.

bradley cannot help acting like an ass whenever he faces any "adversity." i also think his admission is his only real option at this point.

"his name is Dan Uggla!" shouted the marlins tv crew in unison after the 3 run shot. Too bad the bullpen blew it. Also too bad so few showed up for lincecum.

one of two water treatment plants for Nashville/Davidson Co. is underwater and useless. the other is being sandbagged by national guard due to rising waters. They are asking people to conserve water with two other counties having no usable water. The corps of engineers are trying to balance relieving pressure on the levees and dams upstream with the fact that the Cumberland River is just beginning to recede. horrific is right. the loss of life coupled with widespread destruction is hard to comprehend.
