Cain sucks so much
He’s painful to watch

The truth bears repeating
until we get it into our skulls

Does anyone else’s Comcast have incredibly loud static overriding the sound? It happens at least once a game and it’s REALLY LOUD.

Moral: Do not arouse the beast in Matt Cain
He’s been a pussycat up until now
He STARTed out his day at the QUALITY Inn.
Duh.

Well
I don’t not believe the numbers, more like I don’t believe we havn’t been contracted yet. That is unacceptable for an MLB team

Braves bullpen vs Giants offense
Irresistible force of ass versus immovable object of suck.

Even with his struggles
Randy Winn would be valuable to a contender. I dont care what anyone says.

Dear bullpen
I know you all hate Matt Cain, but can you please just give him one?

Terrible Call
I’ll take a tired Cain over a Lefty-Lefty matchup with Taschner any day
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a 6-4 impala
Why no double switch? Could have gotten the veteran savvy that is Dave Roberts into the game.

Nice job Taschner
And a great game from Cain! He really showed some acelike stuff out there tonight!

OT:
Alex Smith and Jason Hill beat DeAngelo Hall twice for TDs in their joint practice this evening.
Superbowl here we come!
I secretly am too
but I was SO optimistic about last year, and that just completely destroyed my ability to be optimisitic.
I really think Alex is a good QB, but I’m not confident he’ll grasp the offense quickly. I think the defense is really going to be quite good, but I’m just not sure the offense will get it going early enough to make something out of the season. It should be more fun to watch than last year, though.
That’s pretty much exactly how I feel. Only, I seem to like to set myself up to get hurt. Masochism FTW!
Neglectful father of David Quinowski
The good thing is
if the offense is just OK, the team will be very strong. The D is good enough and Andy Lee will win any field position battles.
DeAngelo Hall
has always been very very overrated

OT: My Mom Roxorz!
She just emailed me. Won a couple thousand in the lottery, sent me a couple of hundred with a “go have fun, I’m going to Florida for a couple of weeks.”

Your going to Florida
with a couple hundred?

Well, this certainly wasn’t Matt’s best start in awhile, but he gutted it out.

GAMER

5 walks and multiple ABs where he started with 0-2 and ended up in a walk (with no pitches anywhere near the zone) is very disappointing to me. But I have very high standards for Matt Cain.

Higher than mine
