Well, I took a risk on Rudi Johnson on one of my fantasy teams, and that has already come back to kick my ass. I took Ronnie Brown as another risk but hes on my bench, but I guess I gotta put him at starter and hope hes healthy. So lame.
And no doubt it will all end in tears, but I really like Mark Ingram so far. It’s been a while since we’ve had a guy who looked like a good every-down back.
Pujols could get another AB tonight… Anyway… Clemson’s getting their butts kicked. I will be the first to admit that I only have a passing interest in Clemson. Being in Anderson, I naturally see favorable local coverage. How can I not buy into the hype a little?
It’s over. LTU Bulldogs 22, MSU Bulldogs 14. Five turnovers for the Starkville Bulldogs, letting the Ruston Bulldogs score the last 19 points of the game.
Do the Nats know they’re out of the pennant race? They’re celebrating like they just beat their main competitors for first, not the 5th place team beating the 4th place team.
Yeah, I don’t think I’m watching the game either. Time for Clemson-Alabama tonight, baby.
August 30th, 2008 at 2:12 pmChuck James needs shoulder surgery, which isn’t surprising.
August 30th, 2008 at 2:50 pmthe only thing less meaningful than this game, Chad Johnsons’ real name or anything a football coach says is the state of Chuck James shoulder.
August 30th, 2008 at 3:10 pmWell, I took a risk on Rudi Johnson on one of my fantasy teams, and that has already come back to kick my ass. I took Ronnie Brown as another risk but hes on my bench, but I guess I gotta put him at starter and hope hes healthy. So lame.
August 30th, 2008 at 3:22 pmChad Javon Ocho Cinco, right?
August 30th, 2008 at 3:26 pmFalcons cut Joey Harrington, kept Shockley.
August 30th, 2008 at 5:39 pmWell, we all like Shockley, don’t we?
August 30th, 2008 at 6:14 pm2-0 Braves after back-to-back RBI doubles by Chipper and McCann.
August 30th, 2008 at 6:53 pmAnd, of course, the work of SPARKPLUG Josh Anderson, the greatest leadoff hitter in Atlanta history.
August 30th, 2008 at 6:54 pmInfante hit yet another double to knock McCann in, and Prado singled in Infante. 4-0.
How will Jo-Jo blow it?
August 30th, 2008 at 6:57 pmDon’t know, don’t care. Time for Clemson-Alabama.
August 30th, 2008 at 7:00 pmOh, no, not Musberger. I thought he’d been banned from the South.
August 30th, 2008 at 7:01 pmWasn’t aware of that idea. That’s probably because I’m never in that kind of loop.
August 30th, 2008 at 7:09 pmSeems like the Tide came to play tonight.
August 30th, 2008 at 7:52 pmseems like Clemson decided to not wait until the end of the season to blow their chances.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:02 pmObBraves: Reyes and Carlyle showed the caliber of pitching we’ve come to expect from them- namely, blowing a four-run lead in the fifth. 7-6 Nats.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:11 pmTo be fair, Carlyle has pitched pretty well before this.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:12 pmAnd no doubt it will all end in tears, but I really like Mark Ingram so far. It’s been a while since we’ve had a guy who looked like a good every-down back.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:13 pmAnd I think this is the most we’ve thrown to the tight end since 1990.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:19 pmi’d throw to the TE too………….since they’ve apparently decided to not cover him
August 30th, 2008 at 8:21 pmThe tight end has been open since 1990, I swear.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:22 pmFWIW, Pujols is 3-for-3 tonight,now batting .361 to Chipper’s .358.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:24 pmAlso, as I pointed out during last year’s Annual Shreveport Trip, never underestimate the ability of Alabama to blow a lead.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:25 pmThere we go, Chipper.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:28 pmHard to believe we’re this far into the game with no mention of The Out Machine’s absence from the line up.
Glad I’m not watching this miserable bit of pitching–being at my Clemson loving in-laws house is more bearable than this year’s Braves.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:33 pmGeez, what is Martin Prado on?
I mean that seriously.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:34 pmPujols now 4-for-4, .362.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:37 pmOops, I didn’t mean 25 quite like it sounded. My in-laws are fine folks; they’re just not enjoying tonight’s game.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:50 pm22-14 LTU over MSU with 6:48 left. Looks like it will be a looooooong year in Starkville.
Arkansas barely escapes Western Illinois. Bobby Petrino avoids being hanged in effigy. Or in Fayetteville.
August 30th, 2008 at 8:58 pmPujols could get another AB tonight… Anyway… Clemson’s getting their butts kicked. I will be the first to admit that I only have a passing interest in Clemson. Being in Anderson, I naturally see favorable local coverage. How can I not buy into the hype a little?
August 30th, 2008 at 8:58 pmI told yall Clemson was overrated.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:01 pmPujols isn’t getting anymore ABs. Houston wins 8-5.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:03 pmI’m sure everyone already knew this, but: Erin Andrews is hot.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:22 pmIt’s over. LTU Bulldogs 22, MSU Bulldogs 14. Five turnovers for the Starkville Bulldogs, letting the Ruston Bulldogs score the last 19 points of the game.
And free baseball in Washington, 8-8.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:28 pmJeffy, of course, fails as a pinch hitter as he does at everything else.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:36 pmproductive out, Mac
August 30th, 2008 at 9:38 pmOnly if KJ scores on a wild pitch.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:38 pmMSU should be ashamed of themselves, losing to a team quarterbacked by Taylor Benett.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:39 pmNice AB by Anderson, though.
Say what you will, but he’s having a nice little run.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:39 pmBut, but, he got a PRODUCTIVE OUT!!!
Whereas Josh Anderson got an unproductive walk. See, you’re not looking at Frenchy’s accomplishments the right way, or on the right drugs.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:39 pmAt least one of his outs HELPED this time.
Blanco’s, however, didn’t.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:41 pmDang, Blanco!
You have got to get Chipper to the plate there.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:42 pmSEC > ACC.
No, that might not be sufficient. Wait a minute.
SEC > ACC.
There.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:48 pmI’m watching online; was that a Prado?
August 30th, 2008 at 9:50 pmClassic Prado.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:51 pmMac,
I’ve known that for years; I’m comfortable with that.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:55 pmAnd another miserable loss.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:58 pmThanks, Vlad. There’s our season in one plate appearance.
August 30th, 2008 at 9:58 pmWell, what’s more miserable: losing 8-6 after blowing a 4-0 lead or losing it now?
August 30th, 2008 at 9:58 pmDo the Nats know they’re out of the pennant race? They’re celebrating like they just beat their main competitors for first, not the 5th place team beating the 4th place team.
August 30th, 2008 at 10:00 pmI’ve never seen a player thump his chest and holler at the pitcher after getting a walk-off walk, but Elijah Dukes just did it.
Careful in your first AB tomorrow, Elijah.
August 30th, 2008 at 10:01 pmI am, however, glad to see that Franchione left TAMU in even worse shape than he left Alabama.
August 30th, 2008 at 10:02 pmeither Bama is really good or Clemson is bad.
Bama has a football coach, Clemson has the son of a football coach
August 30th, 2008 at 10:13 pmRecap of the latest atrocity is now up.
