I'm looking forward to this game

more than I looked forward to the season opener.

I don’t have the greatest of feeling about this one. I’m sure not looking forward to Pelfrey being booed just because of two terrible starts to start the season. I’m looking even less forward to Wright being booed when or if he strikes out. The mongos are blaming him for yesterdays loss saying he took Halladay off the hook. It was disappointing but Halladay deserves credit and even if Wright hits even a sac fly, Niese still gets pounded.

Sorry for the blank first post

I don’t have the greatest of feelings about this one. I sure am not looking forward to Pelfrey being booed after two terrible starts to start the season. I’m not looking forward to Wright being booed if or when he strikes out. There are some mongos blaming him for yesterday because he took Halladay off the hook and that changed the course of the game. according to them. You know we can’t give the best pitcher in Baseball credit or anything. I highly doubt Niese pitches well no matter what happens in that at bat. The whole clutch thing is coming up again and when you mention his career numbers wrisp they don’t wanna hear it.

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
