My sister once voted for Bucky Dent on the All-Star ballot because "he has a cute butt." It's a good thing I love my sister.

I think we'd be more surprised if he wasn't fired... I hate weather.

Yeah... we'll see how that works out for you! Who am I kidding... it will work out great... sigh. :-) I just hope we don't all drown.

Indeed. At least the evening wasn't a total loss. Tomorrow's game has been moved up to noon so the Jays can get out of town before the deluge. The weather looks ominous for the weekend. I just hope I can get to the stadium Sunday to get the last bobblehead of the season before the hurricane hits!

Congrats to the Blue Jays and their fans. But really, couldn't the O's have scored a couple more runs? That was embarrassing...

I am firmly behind you being a pedantic old fart! Keep fighting the good fight!!

I saw that in the theatre when it came out. I enjoyed it. Not the most in-depth film, but lots of laughs.

I was at the O's game. It rained really hard at some point and we were losing and I just wanted to go home. But my wonderful husband didn't want to walk to the car while there was lightning (because we could die...or something). So we waited over an hour (fortunately, we were on the club level that night, so we were inside). And the game started again. And then it ended. I believe I was screaming. It was like we'd actually won something. Then we stayed to watch the end of the Yanks/Rays game on the Big Screen. There were a lot of sad Saux fans around us. (Sorry King) It was seriously the second most fun regular season game I've ever been to (and the most fun night was just because of the company).

Many people say that. Many people also say that the Lerners hate paying people for not working. My brother suggested that they put Matt to work in one of their shopping malls...

Sigh... It's okay. We weren't going anywhere anyway. Wait till next year! And, as far as the Nats today, after reading a few comments by friends, it seems that my distaste for Bryce has colored my view. Perhaps he was being measured. Eh, I'm just going to enjoy the show and look forward to Tony Kornheiser's radio show tomorrow morning.

Sorry, I'm not very good with the writing thing. I wasn't saying I think he's a punk because of his response today, although I think it was quite dismissive (I didn't get measured, but I rarely do with him). I'm saying I think he's a punk in general. Always have. Which does not lessen Papelbon's dickness.

I gotta say, getting Papelbon was a huge mistake that hopefully will cost Rizzo his job. And he was clearly in the wrong and should have been taken out of the game immediately. And he's a dick. That said, in the post-game interviews, he took full responsibility, apologized, said he'd worked it out with Bryce. In Bryce's interview, I found out he has 6 more games to play this season. He's a punk.

Holy meltdown Nats. Just cements my decision to not care about them, or go to that miserable stadium, ever again. So there.

No such thing :-)

As someone on another board I frequent said. Mrs. Met is getting laid tonight!

I cannot like this post because, well, you know. But that was a damn good play. Dammit.

Can't it be both? :-) Dr. Moniz is on MSNBC all the time, so he's got a lot of TV experience. He's very engaging and funny. And yeah, he's got spectacular hair. As a matter of fact, when he came on, I asked my husband if he wasn't on MSNBC all the time...who can forget that hair!

O's/Nats rained out. However, I had the fabulous chicken biscuit, and 2 great beers! And...the Coolidge 'head!! Which, to be honest, is my least favorite of the Racing Presidents 'heads. Because this one looks like Silent Cal, not the Giant-Headed Racing Silent Cal. Ah well, that's what happens when you let the White House Historical Society design it... And, Aim, I have an extra if you want it!

Is it wrong that I don't remember anything this article said because I was to busy scrolling up and down to see the cityscape move? How cool is that!!

So nice to see Tracy Morgan. And that was a lovely, and funny bit. Can't wait to see him on SNL next month.

So happy for Jon Hamm!! And loved his stage mount!

Did they just tease the In Memoriam segment over "Keep on Truckin Baby"??

Indeed. Although they should have gotten a ton more love.

I love Jon Stewart. But I was hoping against hope that Dave would win.
