The caliber of discussion goes up with the number of good posters contributing, even for other good posters' work.

Missed you...but I was happy to share the game with those who were there, too.

Gathright was such a pest last night. Kinda wish Tavarez was still around to knock him around a bit again

bannister is 4-0 with a sub 1 era in day games
dice should eat this lineup for lunch
i also think detroit is going to smoke batista this afternoon

MLB [912] DET TIGERS -185 [Action]
May 22 MLB [916] BOS RED SOX -200 [Action]
Risking 50 USD To Win 65 USD

fuck it
my bosses are gone for the day,i may as well take advantage of their absence
the over under on the sox game this afternoon is a skinny 8.5 which is a # usually reserved for a pedro/mussina game back in the days when they could pitch
8.5 is giving this guy from kc a lot of respect

In a day game, and against Boston, I give Bannister respect.

Hey, check out today's game thread--I spell it out pretty clearly.
