Sorry about the late thread
It’s not my day, but I don’t think anyone else is threading today.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
It wasn't my idea to blame other people
That was someone else’s fault.

Hey, it's just not my day, either.
You don’t hear me whining, though, do you?
Ray: "How fun is it to be up here playing in the Big Leagues?"
Gio: "It's *SUPER* fun!!!"

The one from just a few weeks ago
where he says his “surfer” persona was all just an act to get girls. and then acts all bitchy to his teammates in the clubhouse.
Hmm.
The clubhouse thing? I didn’t know about it. Is this a thing that began after he became a Giant?
There are plenty of men who put on acts to get girls. It is no different when someone who is famous does it.

Did FOX just completely forget that Bowa was suspended
for arguing about the 3rd base coaching box? They just said, “I’ve never seen this before, they just asked Larry Bowa to go back behind the coaching box.” It happened this year! It was pretty well publicized too, do these guys even pay attention to baseball anymore?
They missed me more.

Okay, so I missed the funs in the ALCS thread.
1. Woonsocket, RI. I hire a lotta people from there. Seems like not a very nice place. I think I would prefer to visit Swoonrocket.
2. HR Lady Schmifty says NOOO PINCHING BUTTS IN THE WORKPLACE PLEASE. No harassment cases. I haven’t yet learned what you’re supposed to do with them. So for now, we just can’t have them.
3. YAY SUX LOSE YAAAAY. Normally, to offend the Sux-loving neighbors, I fire up “New York, New York” on my laptop and aim the speakers out the front windows. But that’s not exactly relevant this time. I will have to think of something else.
The great thing about the Rays beating the Sox
is that Tampa is the Yankees’ 2nd HQ (George Steinbrenner lives there).

With LA on a 3-man rotation, and Philly on a 4-man, this game has the best matchup for the Dodgers.

And the ALCS was quick that year, which didn’t help either.

I honestly wouldn't mind another quick ALCS
I would rather worry in the World Series with the Rays, then worry in both.
This year, I want a quick ALCS, with the Rays.
and a long NLCS.
With the Rays taking care of business in the WS.

Yeah, I know
But I grew up with a Bay Arean’s hatred of pretty much everything Angeleno (except my cousins), and I live near Philly now.
Plus, Derek Lowe? I mean, come on. The only thing I feel bad about is Honeycutt, whom I really like.
