So it's settled then.

The Giants must lose tonight.

Afterward, the dead blood is released and the area around the stadium turns gangrenous.

Add Ithaca's Flower Power to the list if you end up on the east coast.

Sometimes I watch a player on the Mariners do terrible.

and I think about that family guy clip about the no armed second baseman. “Which calls to mind the question, once again, why with all the 2 armed youngsters waiting in the minor leagues does this team stick with an armless second baseman”

“And he hasn’t had a hit in ever.”

It has at least 13 channels, but no UHF.

Honestly, I don’t even know what UHF is beyond a Weird Al song and movie…

That's as much as most people know.

It was an alternate frequency that had mostly public acceess type programming from what I understand.
