If you and your wife ever come back to Harrisonburg, we’ll eat Pho! We’ve got a decent newer place that opened in the past year that makes a good Pho.

She’s talked about wanting to go back for a visit for as long as I’ve known her (we met about a year after she finished grad school and moved away from Virginia), so I’m sure we’ll get around to it one of these days.

We have a pho place in the neighborhood, but it’s not as good as the Chicago places.

Flemming — You live in a beautiful city. Is Tivoli Gardensopenin the winter? But who is sayng the Yankees are better off with Ransom than A-Rod, othr than Cody’s mother? A-Rod could miss half the season. How is losing the league’s best player for that long good for the Yankees? Actually, with this injury ad the way the Yankees still depend on a lot of older players, i could see them sinking again. Maybe a .500 club.

No, it was the right Oritz. Do you really want Russ back and Sanchez in the ’pen?

His arm just fell off.

They should cut Ortiz and say they’re doing it to give him a chance to sign on with another team.

Just to see if they could do it with a straight face.

by kaliber on Mar 6, 2009 1:25 PM PST reply actions  

I mean, to see if they could do it a second time in as many days.

by kaliber on Mar 6, 2009 1:26 PM PST up reply actions  

rather see Aldo or Bummy than watching Ortiz crater

by wilriv21 on Mar 6, 2009 1:25 PM PST reply actions  

22.09

Now, Ortiz’s ERA is a year in which James T. Kirk will be alive.

How do you not get a hit off Palmer, Rowand?

I expect we’ll be repeating this for different pitchers throughout the season.

Wil I love Eugenio but no.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.
