Everyday?

Honestly, I'm excited about having Guardado back. Sure, he was never the lights-out guy that Nathan is, but we don't need that from him, all we need is a solid 8th inning now, something that I think Eddie should be able to do for us on a regular basis.

Almost more importantly, this move is a sign that we won't just sit here and do nothing when our bullpen is performing inconsistently.

Far too true

Perfect explanation.

Political Test Results

You are a Social Liberal (83% permissive) and an... Economic Liberal (16% permissive) You are best described as a: Socialist Link: The Politics Test on Ok Cupid Also : The OkCupid Dating Persona Test

Apparently I'm a Socialist. Power to the people!

Apparently it isn't just a joke

Found THIS article on Slashdot, turns out Colbert's Bump is real (for Dems at least.) Maybe this news will actually make Republicans realize that he's mocking them.

Freakin' shutout the freakin' Yankees!

First, Garrison, sorry I didn't post sooner, I was at the game and busy yelling "WTF?!?!?" when Everett hit that homer. As for Perkins, apparently having your first child is an inspiring moment, inspiring enough to shutout the Yankees for 8 innings. 4 hits. FOUR!

I know I keep saying this, but the Twins have a way of coming up with a different hero every game. I love the fact that our team is just that, a TEAM. Everyone contributes and when that happens we are unstoppable.

Rain of Hats

As much as I hope the Rain of Hats that fell on the Metrodome floor during the bottom of the 7th tonight doesn't become a tradition (I hope it doesn't happen again for that matter) I do believe that the sheer energy of the fans getting behind Gardy during his very justified tirade helped to spur us on to victory. The White Sox fleeing the field and the proceeding to hide, obviously terrified of the prospect of being hit by the most deadly weapon known to man, the baseball cap, made the entire building erupt with the type of vengeful energy that can electrify even the slumpiest of hitters. Every time Ozzie Guillen stepped onto the field to change pitchers from that point forth we got stronger, the crowd booed louder, and the players scored more.

As an addendum, I am totally ok with Griffey going to play for the Sox so long as Swisher plays 1B for the rest of the year cause that guy SUCKS.

Divorce

Who knew it was so easy? All you do is show up with the papers and someone you've never met before watches you sign, stamps it, and just like that you're single again. I think divorce should be handled the same way as marriage. Your whole family, friends, and everyone who was at the wedding should have to show up and you should state your case for divorce in front of everyone, explain to each and every one of the people who stood up for your vows why exactly you feel like they (the vows) don't count anymore.

Yes, I'm bitter and angry. Fortunately I planned ahead and made sure the house is free of all booze and drugs, so all I have to drown my sorrows in is video games and baseball. If the White Sox win tonight someone may have to drive me home from the bar.
