Wise Master Buehrle

Anyone know the name of the band and the song that just played for Tino Martinez? No hitter is dead.

Hahaha yeah.

All this contract talk has got to be getting to Maggs. He is not hitting well... or working the count.

Aaron with a carbon copy double.

Joe's looking baaaad at the plate.. Walker needs to talk to him maybe. Wow I'm over 2,000 posts... spiffy.

Konerko and especially Crede need to get out of their slumps. Konerko with a solo jack to right!!!!

At least they were hitting the ball hard, besides Maggs..

Magglio's at-bat disappeared...

Jose with a BOMB to right field.

And Fick grounds out to Willie. Good inning Zesty Esty.

Lugo pops up the Willie.

Crawford flies out to Arrow.

Lee grounds out to SS. Inning over. 1-0 Sox.

Bases on balls and the ball gets away from the catcher, Willie scores!

Maggs grounds out to second base. Willie makes 3rd. C'mon Frank.

Jose K's swinging.

Wilie steals 2nd. 3rd stolen base of the season. No CS.

Base hit up the middle for Willie.

Fads, we've all gone through them. Here's another one, but this one happens to be unique. The way it is unique is because it is expensive. It's too bad so many people I know have fallen victim to this one. They say it's fun because of the commando warfare type effect. Hell, I can simulate that just as good, grab a few friends and some damn squirt guns and your set. It's just as fun, for a few reasons: 1. A million times cheaper. Water is free, paintballs are not. 2. Not messy (unless you're a loser who freaks out when getting wet) 3. Doesn't hurt. Seriously, let's shoot some little balls filled with paint and get welts so we can look like badasses. Bah, you might as well grab some pistols and go play in a forest. And then "upgrading". What the hell are you upgrading? "Oh, I'm gonna spend another 200 dollars so my gun can shoot a paintball at another 1 foot per second and so I can have a scope!" I just grin and know that my limited budget isn't being spent so foolishly. I'm probably just ranting because I'm sick of my friends just doing this, and me refusing to spend my money on this s***. :puke
