I sort of think Do the Collapse sucks, except for "Teenage FBI" and a few other bits. I think "Hold On Hope" is my least favorite GBV song.

TVT era GBV was certainly way more produced than their earlier stuff, but the only one that really strikes me as any sort of attempt at breaking into the mainstream is Do the Collapse, and even that was a fairly natural progression from Mag Earwhig! And Isolation Drills is easily their most inspired post-Alien Lanes album. I've read that Pollard quote before, but never have seen it in context. I always took it to be referring to the jump to TVT from Matador, and not the actual albums that resulted from it.

I like the Spurs. The 8 minutes I watched tonight was all I saw of this series.

Yeah, I understand. But I don't think it's out there, unfortunately.

If you're looking for something you can put on your iPod, then, no, but if you've just never heard the song before, then here's

I'm holding out for the release. But you are the only person here who's opinion I look to on this. Looking forward to your thoughts after it's sunk in more.

Hmmm... Pudge... Yeah, and there's Sheff. I think I can see what you're getting at, but the Tigers aren't an expansion team. They've been around for like 110 years already.

I still enjoy watching the All Star Game. I agree that the "This time it counts" garbage is stupid though. Home field should be determined by best record. If it really "counts", then they'd change the way in which players were selected for the team. Seems dumb that a team who had the better season has to play on the road because some other team in their league has fans who are more motivated to vote for their own shitty players than for the players who are really having the best years. If it "counts", then they should be able to but the best team possible out there. If it's just for f

I feel pretty good about this matchup: Jake Peavy (7-1, 1.97, 95/24, 1.02) vs. Edwin Jackson (0-7, 7.39, 50/31, 1.85)

I can understand why people would get worked up over someone bunting for a base hit if it's like the ninth inning and the score is 10-0 (even though I disagree). But in a close game, shouldn't a hitter be trying to win? If not, he may as well just purposely swing and miss at everything so as to speed up no-hitter result.

Yeah, I agree with cryptique -- players shouldn't be criticized for helping their team out by getting on base. That being said, it is "tradition" not to bunt for a base hit if a pitcher is near a no-hitter, but I'd always thought that it was accepted in a close game.

It was not a perfect game, but yeah, it was @ Chicago.

'roidy

Yeah, but I pad mine too.

Well, he has a really small strike zone. Also, he's like two inches taller than me.

Miss Piggy is so hot.

The guy who is right on my tail at the top of my fantasy league has both Verlander and Kelvim Escobar (who had 14 K tonight). Dammit.

thanks

Wow, that's 20 more hits than Verlander gave up, in 5 less innings.

HE DID IT!!!

Oh man. One more inning to go...

Haha, I hope so!

No, neither of my leagues are Plus leagues. You have to click on the "Opponents" tab. It's in the bar of tabs above your roster (Stats, Average Stats, Ranks, etc.).
