How long before CNN leads with their suicide angle, I wonder.

Don't go near craigslist's Rants & Raves.

I already had to post this in Boston:

My hat is off to you. Good work. You knew it was coming. But I still bet a Yankee fan is more likely to do it than a Sox fan. Especially after this year's first round exit.

 

EDIT: Maybe I should post something like that in NY's c-list. Not that it would make any difference, I suppose.

 

EDIT2: Too late. NYers are all over it. Jesus H Christ. People really take their sports this seriously. Wow.

Wow. The Tigers sure are lucky that this is Frank Thomas's worst game in a month or else they'd be getting slaughtered right now. Milton Bradley is destroying them.

 

Edit: omg Alexis Gomez!

Edit: The Tigers are also lucky that the A's have to play that Jiminez guy. He is terrible. He almost makes up for the Tigers playing Neifi Perez.

I just collected $1900 tonight from winning a fantasy baseball league

 

Bastards hit me for $150 in beerz though :beer :cheers :beer

 

I had big fat Frank, Parker Brothers and Brandon Inge

 

Not to mention Giambi, Dye, Hafner, Garland , Mussina, etc...

 

We've done this high money AL only league for 10 years now, $260 a team plus $1 per transaction -- I am more than way ahead over the years so I don't technically have a "gambling" problem

Can I go ahead and say that the Lidle story is getting TOO much coverage? It's shocking yes, and sad. But it has every single news station completely tied up.

Yes. Yes, you can. I'd even agree with you. Let me tell you the thing about people that people don't quite seem to understand: They die.

Yup, but probably no more than any other news story that manages to tie together celebrity, 9/11, sports, New York, Steinbrenner, flames, shock, smoking skyscrapers, etc. Got to feed the news monster all the time, ya know.
