:shifty Which makes it even odder that the tour's not going to South Florida...

I'm so glad essox500 is back, albeit under a different name. Hey, Orkie, can you tell us how Easy Tiger would've been better with more orchestral reprises? And also, tell us how much you dislike Bright Eyes.

Gretsch are sweet, but not incredibly versatile...

Who cares? (About RS cultural significance, that is) If you don't like it, don't read it. I have a subscription, and I like that they generally have some pretty interesting interviews and articles, and if I disagree with their reviews, who cares? It's one person's opinion against anothers. If people wanted to hear about Wilco instead of Kanye West, you can be damn sure they'd run an issue with Jeff wearing a crown of thorns. Unfortunately, most people don't care about "good" music, so they aren't going to waste their time running articles that people won't read.

I know, I know. I can't help it.

Jose Reyes might be the 3rd or 4th best SS in the NL east this year. Renteria's been awesome as well. The left side of the infield in NL All Star Games is going to be dominated by the NL east for a long time with Cabrera, Wright, Zimmerman, Reyes, Rollins, and Hanley.

I don't know what it is about the Marlins, but we play infinitely better on the road than at home, and the season series with the mets is the perfect example. Some people on the Marlins board have said it's because they like playing in front of a lot of people, and while I can't really say I think thats true, it's starting to make sense. We've taken 2 out of 3 at shea twice, and gotten swept by the Mets at home twice...

Just last night I was remarking on how much I love that "Hey Jealousy" song.

Brandon Webb currently has a 33 inning scoreless streak going. Pretty impressive. And I'd argue with the Reyes being more exciting than Hanly simply because Hanley's a much more complete player, but that may just be because I've gotten to watch him every day for 2 years. And I still think a player like Miguel Cabrera is more exciting than them both. Any schmoe can steal 50 bases, it takes talent to split your pants during a game and still got 3/4, which I'm pretty sure he did a few weeks ago.

You cannot defeat the awesomeness that is Hanley Ramirez and Josh Willingham.

So much for the Sweep... The home team in the Marlins-Mets series this year is like 2-9. Crazyness.

Happy birthday!!!11!1!!1!!!1111

Ankiel with 2 more homers. Wow.

50's a joke. His first album was alright, but he hasn't dont anything of worth since then. Kanye's released 2 bonafied classics, and the few songs I've heard from Graduation are sounding pretty good too.

God, I hope Kanye outsells him...

I don't like the implication that Simon And Garfunkel are only for old people.

It's the only thing I've got going for me.

I also saw Jose Canseco at the Mall down here once. Thats a big guy. And I met Jeff Tweedy once in someone's basement.

My god, Hanley Ramirez is so much better than Jose Reyes, it makes my brain hurt that ESPN still calls Reyes "The Most Exciting Player In The Game". Can't wait for Baseball Tonight tonight when Steve Phillips declares Reyes is MVP.

Sweet, all expenses paid tour of Iraq. Can't wait.

I like long songs with a steady beat for running, which is why "Spiders" is usually the first song I go to. I tried short fast songs, and I found it makes the time go slower...

Then wouldn't they be playing "Impossible Germany" or "Hate It Here"? (Actually, those three songs are so good they are all 1a. 1b. and 1c.)

Happy birthday!

Lame.
