UGH I still feel hungover.
Come home, Davy Lopes.
I concede the election.
Oh, I am also firing PAUL as my campaign manager. What the hell was I thinking. Jolly Rancher tax. Stupid idea. I should have campaigned on taking all of McCourt's money and funding a monorail.
I watched the video of the SF lunacy, and I have two observations:
1. Idiots don't have enough sense to shed the bright orange shirts.
2. No burning mattresses.
Dutchbags, say I!
Did we sign Cliff Lee and Carl Crawford yet?
It was a brave platform, Neeebs. But California just isn't ready for that kind of outside-the-box thinking.
Apologies again, MRLASC. I did not mean to overreact yesterday.
So many reasons to not like today.
There's a parade going on in SF and its not for the gays, or vegans, or stoners.
Its November 3rd and its 100 degrees in the I.E.
I have to put together an Ikea bookshelf when I get home.
Mrs. Kuo is going to make me go to the gym tonight and I don't wanna.
Weed isn't legal yet.
On the bright side, there's still some Halloween Kit Kats at the house.
*kicks that drunken dog*
"I have to put together an Ikea bookshelf when I get home."
Shit, man, that trumps all. May the deity of your choosing have mercy on your soul.
Whoever Allen is, Ima punch him in the balls for inventing the world's most shitty wrench.
"Hmmm... how can I invent a tool that will give someone a hand cramp within 2 min of using it?"
=(
Don't get carpal tunnel HLaCK. It's a bitch.
I often drive through the Carpool Tunnel.
what'll be awesome is that this World Series will be forgotten by most in a few days
SF banning Happy Meals is already a bigger story than the Jints winning their first West Coast title.
How did you know I was hungover today?
Marseilles is on fire.
Metaphorically speaking; nothing like Frisco or the Lakeview District.
7-Nil? Jaysus!
Meanwhile, Karina's boys just drew even.
C'mon Milan!
The Gunners have gone flat. . .as expected.
@rbnlaw
I was about to serve up a snide remark, but they tell me that people in glass houses probably shouldn't throw stones
...and there's a lead. Suck it, Cristiano!
Milan up on Real!
A bright spot on an otherwise dismal day for this Gunners fan.
@Neeebs
I would have got you elected if would have stopped asking women if they would like to suck on a rancher for a
small fee!
Also I need your input and approval on the flaming menudos new kids fan club "the little flamers".
@everyone
I hate this day. It also reminded that I need to downsize on facebook. Why am I friends with people who I don't talk to and just annoy me with their stupid giant fan status updates.
Mr. C,
Hey, no one seriously thought Liverpool would stay in the relegation zone, did they?
Meanwhile, my Gunners are as confounding as ever.
No, but they're certainly still well within the "suck" zone. The last few matches have been an improvement, though.
Belter declined the Sox option. He is officially injury prone again!
Gah, equalizer in stoppage time!
Damn, they got out with a point.
Nice find on the LA Observed Article, GNF. The epilogue was a timely reminder that I don't really care what the Dodger's payroll is, I care whether they win or not.
Not much more to do
Not much more to say
Just thought I'd let Y'all know
I've still gots the hateHateHates
@Paul:
Little Flamers it is!!!!
Y'know, we still never found out who the PTBNL is for the Dotel trade.
I'm guessing the player will end up being Cole Hardcash.
"A transaction including a player to be named later must be completed within six months. The player may not be an active Major League player during the interval between the trade and the date the player is named. As a result, most players to be named later are minor leaguers.
At the time of a trade, clubs sometimes agree on a list of players from which the player to be named will be selected. They also may agree on an amount of money to be exchanged in lieu of a player."

How long has it been?
The Bucs should be paying us for taking that walk machine off their hands.
About a month and a half, Mr. F.

Laker thread.
The nice thing about the Lakers being good is a lot of their games are nationally televised, even on weekdays.
ie, I can watch them.
Sac games aren't in your market, Mr F? Or are the Warriors the team?
I'm in Warriors town. I think you have to be pretty far East to get to the Sac area. And that's usually a good thing.
WTF is wrong with Lakers. Barely a 4 point lead towards the end of the half. And against the Queens.
Those second of back-to-back games are tough.
Nice way to end the half for the Lakers, though. We got this.
Kobe is playing easy. I love it.
This just in, the Lakers are pretty decent this year.
Whupped them queens. Did Fish take that gamenover at the end or what?
*kicks dog again*
umm guys, he ain't moving.
Is anybody here a vet?
Mr C, you know doggie CPR, right?
Stop the presses! I agree with Plaschke today re: Lopes.
Where can I go for a Scott Podsednik decision countdown clock?
SCOTTY SAID NO!
(faints)
O rly?
Yes, he said no.
No, I didn't faint.
This kind of news deserves its own post.
Also, Orel spelled Jon Weisman wrong.
I was hungover yesterday so I never noticed.
