Tomight's Gams Is the Dream Matchup
Screw Felix day, tonight is Weaver v. Meche: two "men" enter, one "man" leaves.
Train Wreck Baseball at its finest.

Is it just me or is RR getting a hell
Good thing the national media took a break from our non-stop action to showcase a Yanks-Sox game today. I forget, where do they play?

funk 'n' pucks
Still, I was sitting here watching the condensed game from last night, and it's all too apparent that the Funk Blast designation is not reserved for Richie Sexson. That considered, surely not every blast can really be a funk blast, right? I think if every Mariner blast is indeed a Funk Blast, there has to be a scale of funkiness. For instance, if Sexson or Beltre reaches the $7 seats in centerfield or hits Royal Brougham, that's a definite 10. If it's a fly ball that looks like a flyout off the bat but flies over the fence anyway, the Funk Quotient goes down. Funkiness could also be adjusted for the given situation during the game.
As for the Sens, an Ottawa/Buffalo series would just be out of control. It'd be the same two teams from the brawl earlier in the season, and every game would end with a score of 5-4 or thereabouts. Too bad Martin Biron isn't with the Sabres so he can come out and fight Ray Emery again.
And remember, kids, good things happen in overtime when you throw the puck into the net. If you're Jeff Cowan last night, you throw one onto the net and it squeezes in between J-S Giguere's right skate and the post. All hail Cowan the Brabarian! That clip's worth sitting through just to see Willie Mitchell's 63-inch (hockey) stick with the, ahem, debris on it.

Saying that Harbor park is a nice place to catch a ball game. It's the Orioles AAA affiliate.

Checking in from Downtown
I have my ticket. Good thing it's rally towel night: we're gonna need to rally from a massive deficit before Gil even takes the hill. Either that or we're gonna need something to throw in.
