um, yeah, i clicked on that link and got this message: ]The site you have requested has been blocked by the CONUS TNOSC due to hostile content.

is the sign metal? i would think hte clanking sound of a ball hitting off it would be helpful, tho maybe not in a loud stadium... really, they need more cameras, perhaps stationary cameras dedicated to the task? or they could get really fancy cameras that automatically track the ball, following its trajectory and maintaining focus on the ball i he center of the field of view. that would be cool...

Side note on sex pills commercials: I love how the guy is always the good-looking and seemingly in great shape middle-aged type. And while I'm sure there are some E.D. patients who fit that mold you know that 90+% of those who need the stuff are likely much older, vastly overweight, alcoholic, diabetic, or, quite likely, some combination of all of the above. But they certainly don't want to put those faces on the product. Advertising is great that way. Compare the crowd eating at McDonald's or Burger King in their TV commercials with the actual people going to those places and you'll see the same thing. Big fat messes of people aren't allowed on TV unless it's a Dateline special and their shot from the neck down. And I love that, by the way. A bunch of giant headless "things" walking around American cities.

Edgy DC May 28 2009 10:04 AM I've written to FAN to complain. This is the first time I've ever written a broadcaster to complain about an ad, and I think my transition from handsome young heartbreaker to grumpy old shit is complete.

IOW, your KARS-4-KIDS message will get read by some 23 y/o producer for whatever show is on at that moment and discarded. Not sure where you write to direct stuff toward station mgmt but if you find it at least it'll be read by their 23 y/o secretary before being discarded.

ah jeez, i didn't see that one down there... i've got more voting to do

Maine 3.8 Sheffield 1.9 Putz 1.4 Castillo 1.1 Beltran 0.9 Rodriguez 0.9

Hernandez 4.7 Sheffield 1.9 Rmartinez 1.1 Pagan 0.9 Castillo 0.9 Tatis 0.5

Castro 4.1 Sheffield 1.8 Pagan 1.3 Feliciano 1.1 Reed 1.0 Murphy 0.7

Pelfrey 3.6 Santos 2.1 Sheffield 1.5 Putz 1.3 Rmartinez 0.8 Feliciano 0.7

if i had to pick one, i'd go for the whites. the contrast is nicer than the grey. i'd be more likely to wear it as a t-shirt than the grey.

mike cameron was a pretty good defensive rf

Santana 3.6 Tatis 2.9 Reed 1.1 Santos 1.1 Wright 0.7 Stokes 0.6

Pelfrey 3.6 Beltran 2.2 Reyes 1.8 Rodriguez 1.3 Wright 0.7 Church 0.4

i suck at schaefer voting this year...

i would've expected the knob never to need shaving...

well, as others have said, i don't think it would've been smart to overpay as much for lowe as the braves did, nor do i think it was smart to pay ollie as much as we did. unfortunately, the other starting pitching options that were out there were all pretty darned bad, and outside the top three of sabathia, burnett, and lowe, i don't think there's anybody who would be appreciably (or predictably) helping the team. but we'd prolly be better off with one of them instead of with a potentially useless and grossly overpaid ollie...

just got tickets tonight from a coworker with a prior engagement! section 106.
