Either somebody at the Daily Herald has a sense of humor or they're in desperate need of a few copy editors.

Nothing to do with the typo, but this is why they must "Free the Daily Herald Two.."

Lindsey Willhite, writing from his living room:

Quote
Pet peeve: Bobby Jenks hadn't pitched since Friday. He warmed up Tuesday, but Lance Broadway entered in the 11th instead. Why? Because it wasn't a save situation? Pitch your best guy.

You know, if he was there, he could have asked Ozzie. And the response would have sold enough newspapers to justify two nights in KC and flight.

Shite Sox.  Heh heh.  Love it. 

Wait, you mean Phil Rogers was premature with his declaration that Alexi the 37 year old Cuban rookie was a superstar?  Blasphemy!

Always nice when great nicknames happens via typos.

One of the writers at our shitty paper accidentally slipped "Kentrucky" past the editors, and now we use it all the time.

I think this is the thread for this...

Looks like Jenks decided to be a pussy act responsible like Miggy and quit drinking.

Quote
"I just got tired of it, plain and simple," Jenks said. "When you want a bad habit out of your life, either you wean yourself off or you quit cold turkey.
"For me, it was easier to just quit. It was to the point where it was easy for me to lose control. I got to the point where not for my sake and my family's sake, but everyone's around me, it was just time to back off and live my life not for myself.
"Everyone says you live for your family," said Jenks, the father of four. "But when you are doing something like that, you are living selfishly and I was tired of living that way."

Quote
What led Jenks to see his drinking as a trouble spot? It was a daily pattern of unwanted behavior.

"Getting [drunk] every night. Let's put it plain and simple," Jenks said. "When I took a long, hard look at myself and saw where I was headed, at that point, I was headed in the wrong direction.

Quote
"No, I'm not an alcoholic. It was just time to stop."

I'm not saying that a father of four who gets drunk every single day is an alcoholic, I'm just saying that if you can lose 25 pounds just by stopping drinking...you probably had a drinking problem.

"Plummer, in 1999, "contributed" 1,017 fewer yards to the Cardinals than the league average QB would have brought to the table. As far as modern seasons go, Plummer's '99 stands as the worst."

This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

I just love the curly line thingys near the top of the tat.

Speaking of ugly tattoos, here's another.

Most tattoos suck, but wrist tattoos suck much much more.

Meat's tribal band tattoo on his forearm is pretty outstanding.
