Oliver is sucking some serious noodles this evening for my Metropolitans. Can we get a do-over on that Perez for Nady deal?
I love the sarcastic cheer pitchers get when they finally throw a strike after walking a couple guys. Always good to know the crowd's paying attention.

By the by, that was a really terrible mental error by Gorzo. Let's hope it doesn't end up hurting him.
He looks like Groucho Marx. I did a double-take when I saw it.

Which is saying something, because Pirate fans know all about bad facial hair.

You make me want to put on the game just to see Giambi's facial hair ... (assuming that's what you're talking about).
Yoda, drink apple juice to your heart's content -- but just brush your teeth a lot.
Cute, huh? It's gettin' thick. A few weeks ago it was damn pitiful. Now it looks like greasepaint.

"Say the secret woid and I'll hit a three-run homer."
Wow. What dead mammal did Giambi glue to his face?

Also, be very careful in terms of caloric and sugar intake on apple juice. (Very bad for the teeth, that apple juice.)
Wow, really? That sucks. I love the stuff.

I wouldn't think apple juice would be a direct substitute for water or anything, but I imagine there's a good deal of water in it.

I'm pretty sure I lost the copy you gave me, which I'm pretty bummed about. It'd be great if you could find the negative and have it reprinted.

Sadly, no. They sold out pretty much the same morning all Pirate tickets went on sale. They're the hot ticket in town this week. If you're getting the FSN feed, you probably noticed Franco Harris sitting behind home plate a minute ago, for example.

Anyway, I'll be watching all of them, but it would've taken a) season tickets or b) luck to snag any of these.
