The Czech Republic

Bears in Jacksonville for another must-win game.

And he can play on hot days, too, unlikely whitey Todd Walker. If the Cubs don't win the Central, fire Dusty.

Kyle Farnsworth is ready to step up as the ace! That kid's got potential. And he's not afraid to show the fan(s) how he really feels.

Would sacrificing your ace for the sake bolstering the bullpen be cutting off your face to spite your nose? Whatever it is, it's fucking nuts and it means we need to buy a new starter because Todd Wellemeyer is not gonna be my #5 man.

No, Dusty, this has Kyle Farnsworth written all over it. Kerry Wood, in 2004, often had very rough first innings. If that carries over and he has a rough NINTH inning, his first of the game, then HE'S NOT A VERY GOOD CLOSER NOW IS HE. Plus we can't afford to lose him as a starter.

So Karl Malone works for the INS? But seriously, Kobe, you cheated on your wife so that makes this okay.

Hey did you see Vince McMahon's ladder legdrop? Was that cool or what?

Animist. They worship at Lobster Temples.

I wouldn't mind a Hollandsworth/Dubois platoon in the outfield...if Carlos Beltran was in it instead of Sammy Sosa. As it stands we can't afford to slack off like that.

Brock wasn't very sensible. I think I was out of the loop for a lot of Lesnar's push. I didn't even see Royal Rumble 2003, and I really didn't watch much Smackdown in 2002/2003 either. So that's why he never caught on.

Kolb to Atlanta? You mean Kyle Farnsworth didn't entice the Brewers? BULLSHIT. And now time for the "I want Carlos Beltran" of this summer... I want John Smoltz!

And in a related story, people can't watch the Daily Show to be entertained anymore, you watch yo get your point of view reinforced, provided it's the right (left) one.

I bet Bob Barker is like Judy Garland and Madonna in "inexplicable gay icons."

OH GOD

God help me.

Yeah, exactly. So how well would Kolb make the transition of going from pitching in front of half-empty stadiums, to a rabid, sold-out stadium, where every loss is treated like the end of the world? Let's ask Esteban Loaiza.

Miller Park's atmosphere is laid back in the sense that an abandoned warehouse is laid back. Oh and yeah, after last year's debacles of Farnsworth As Usual and LaTroy Hawkins blowing TWO saves with two out and two strikes, I think Wrigley Field is going to eat shitty relievers for lunch.

Jon Garland is baaaaaaaad.

That is so cool.

I'm turning into Bad Grammar Pointout.

Diet Coke With Lemon has to be the pussiest soda around.

SHOULD'VE

Gotta love Fat Rodge.

Brandon Arroyo would be an even better pitcher if he got more strikeouts. Strikeouts make it hard for batters to get on base.
