No t.v. tonight…

…and perhaps some imaginative gifs?

…oh, by the looks of his kicks, that’s got to be a ground’s crewman.
You gif so well.

Perhaps it’s the way he watches his HR’s. Can’t stand that.

After taking a look at the Cubs lineup tonight compared to last night...
…. it’s pretty obvious what Lou’s intent is….
So I’ll make you a deal: if the Mets make the playoffs and the Brewers stay home, please kick the crap out of the Cubs for us. Sweep, if possible. If the Mets end up playing the Cubs again, I’ll be the biggest Mets fan west of Lake Michigan and east of the Mississippi.
I have an unreasonable dislike of Bill Hall.

at this point I kind of think Howard deserves the MVP also. I know that is not a popular view here but well I mean he is a pretty awesome hitter who is doing it down the stretch for his club.

From Baseball Crank:
John McCain’s signature talent as a legislator is his ability to get horrendous bipartisan legislation passed. Today, the nation needs some horrendous bipartisan legislation. It’s time for McCain to get the House Republicans to follow him where their best political and policy judgment and their constituents are all telling them not to go.

Of course Obama is no better.
His support on the economy relies on complete ignorance of economic principles on the part of normal people.
The whole idea of a corporate tax makes no sense at all.

I said to someone at work today
I’d almost rather the Mets crashed out this weekend so I could attend Oktoberfest without having to think about the Mets crashing out of the play-offs while I was away.
It’s not true, of course, because I want them to make the play-offs. But still it has been tough to sit through all of this.
And, of course, Philly wins. Blergh.

But the debate isn’t about reality anyway. It’s about perception. And McCain was all specific, and Obama was all “I agree with Senator McCain.”

i don't think Obama did as well as he could havebut
Mccain was hardly specific about anything but some tired stories about how he had been to these places and some stupid semantics about high level meetings. Omaba actually itemized what he would do, though i think he fell into the mcbain trap of distraction. I wouldn’t feel comfy about a McBain foreign policy if I were you.
