First Upton = Lazy reference

Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.

B.J. Upton doesn't like his steaks rare because it's too much work to cook them.

He just eats them right off the side of the cow.

I miss the explicit racial caricature of the Braves' old logo.

At least we still have the Tomahawk Chop.

Honestly, he looks like he's orgasming.

So it could be either, depending how weird he is in the bedroom.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking right after I posted it

I couldn’t remember if he was in the games the rest of the postseason with them that year

Imagine if Pena, Hot Carl, and Dropo

were as good this year as they were last year.

I need some quick punctuation help

This division of labor makes it necessary for people to know exactly how much their goods are worth in comparison to another good; otherwise they would be unable to successfully trade.

Semicolon or comma?

Semicolon.

Or a period and a new sentence.

Willy Aybar isn't a bad baseball player for a woman-beater.

Better than Bret Myers, at least.

11Ks in 6IP for rays hitters.

Surely they cannot handle the glaring lights of afternoon October baseball.

That IS a remarkably high K total, to be fair.

Evan Longoria has singlehandedly won this game for them (if the score holds).

Not so long as Tony Pena, Jr. draws a paycheck in the major leagues.

I've had that thought before, given your proclivity for driving roads.

Shit job right now, the restrictions the last few years seem to be the last nail in the coffin for the independants.

Successful independant is a shit ton of work.

Couple of friends are truck drivers, one of them does all his own work, monster shop in Pasco. Constantly doing maintenance. Enjoys the work though so it’s not like he has to motivate himself to get it done. He does alright, the other guy, not so well.

Not me. It was awesome.

But communications majors should probably spend as much time as possible working on student papers/television/etc. and doing internships to make up for the fact that your degree is super-easy to earn.
