Which is, of course, not moving at all, but funny.

Have I mentioned that I think Morgan is terrible yet?

Funny....but I'd vote let's not put a special picture up for divorcees.

I'm sorry to interrupt the Magic Number Thread with talk of the standings, but Philly still has a shot at the playoffs. 3 out of the loss column in the wildcard hunt.

I'm willing to bet a grand that Joe Torre cries if/when the Yankees clinch a playoff spot.

I'm jealous too.

By "Eeyore", do you mean "pain in the ass who always wants to bitch and moan like a fucking baby"?

]It pisses me off that the Devil Rays and Royals et al will roll over for the Yankees but play hard against the Red Sox. I think you're just being grumpy, but I'll note in this space that the D-Rays beat the hell out of the Yankees last year.

I'm impressed that you're reading all these threads, cooby. (SC = zero)

Maine 4 Reyes 2 Valentin 2 Lo Duca 2

The world's a funny place. You'd think the headline that got second billing would be more important.

You know....I'm really starting to like how this organization does things. Except for the Nady trade.

Link NEW YORK -- Even before the injury to setup man Duaner Sanchez forced Willie Randolph to redo the bullpen, the manager spoke of using Darren Oliver in late-game situations, mostly as a means of preparing him for postseason duty, but also with a sense of testing the veteran left-hander who has prospered in long relief this season. The plan backfired on Friday night, when Oliver entered the game in the seventh inning with the score tied at 3-3 and surrendered a home run to his first batter -- a left-handed batter -- David Dellucci. The Phillies scored in the ninth as well, when Ryan Howard, also a left-handed hitter, hit his 37th home run, against southpaw Pedro Feliciano. The assignment Friday marked the second time this season Oliver has been asked to pitch later than the sixth inning with the score tied or with a margin of one run either way. In each instance he allowed a run. A rundown of Oliver's seven "seventh or later" appearances follows: April 7: In the Mets' fourth game, Oliver makes his first appearance and starts the ninth with the Mets leading, 9-3, against the Marlins in Miami. Three up, three down. May 18: Oliver is summoned to start the eighth inning in St. Louis with the Mets trailing, 6-3. Three up, three down. June 3: With the Mets trailing the Giants, 5-4, at Shea, Oliver starts and completes the ninth and allows a run on a single by Barry Bonds. June 6: Oliver starts the eighth in Los Angeles vs. the Dodgers with the Mets trailing by three runs. He allows two hits and a walk but no runs and completes the inning. June 20: Oliver works the ninth against the Reds at Shea with the Mets leading, 9-2. He faces four batters, allowing a hit. June 21: With the Mets trailing the Reds by four at home, Oliver is assigned the seventh inning. Again, he faces four batters and allows one hit. Aug. 4: With the Mets and Phillies tied at 3, Oliver is given the seventh inning. His first batter, David Dellucci, a left-handed hitter, provides the decisive run in what becomes a 5-3 Phillies victory.

My first thought when I heard that nickname was that I was glad it wasn't mine.

For the record, my post was written with 100% sarcasm content. I thought people would have realized that from my previous posts on the subject of Doc, but then I'm always assuming people pay more attention to me than they really do, lol.

Fuck him. After what he did to me I don't feel sorry for him. The hopes and dreams I had for that guy. He betrayed me.
