I find most artists (writers, musicians, painters)
have more interesting and edgy work early in their careers. Do you feel that way about your writing? (I do about anything I’ve done 20 years ago – seems fresher. Tough to keep reinventing the wheel and keeping the passion. Thank God for a 5-year old who keeps me moving and sharp.)

edgy because there's no one putting the brakes on...
studios, networks, publishers. Edgy gets u in the door, but one gets co-opted because of success and money. The saving grace is that you get become a better craftsman. I look at my TV stuff that I did 20 years ago and go ‘wow’ how did I get away w/ that?. Now? Not so much.-
Ah, damn.

That's fine with me...
The Yankees aren’t that great of a team but the Sox are horrible on the road so a split would actually be good. Plus, the Twins could easily lose facing the Rays and Shields on the road tonight.

You give the Rays and Shields that much credit, eh?
Guess it takes a .700+ Rays home record to get SSH to cop to the possibility of a win against the Mighty Mighty Twinkerbells, losers of 3 in a row to Cleveland (on the road).

The AL East
is so much better than the Central it is scary. The Rays’ performance is even more impressive considering the strength of their schedule.
I think Selig should announce the AL East winner gets an automatic bye in the 1st round....
and the “supposed” race between the Twins and White Sox is no longer a race—both teams are automatically eliminated from the post-season.

Sweet juniper
The Sox are down a starter, a 3B, an MVP candidate, and Linebrink’s arm is paper. Of course they’re not a good team right now. They have somehow managed to contend this season and they are struggling to close the deal. I’d rather watch this Sox team trying to make the playoffs than any of the X number of teams already eliminated.
If the only season you are happy/interested in is wire-to-wire dominance then I think you’ll be missing out on a lot of baseball.

brian anderson would've caught that...
I just learned not too long ago
he threw a no-hitter while tripping on acid
“The ball was small sometimes, the ball was large sometimes, sometimes I saw the catcher, sometimes I didn’t. Sometimes I tried to stare the hitter down and throw while I was looking at him. I chewed my gum until it turned to powder. They say I had about three to four fielding chances. I remember diving out of the way of a ball I thought was a line drive. I jumped, but the ball wasn’t hit hard and never reached me.”
He's the closer.
He’s supposed to close. Same reason Todd Jones would come in after a healthy Rodney.

Mets released RHP Al Reyes.
Despite all of the Mets’ bullpen problems, Reyes hadn’t made one appearance since being called up on Sept. 2. He probably asked for his release since he obviously wasn’t part of the team’s plans.
He probably isn’t as good as he once was but he’s better than the absolute shit the Sox are throwing out there.

I just think it's silly to pass on players because of what team they played for before

i’m not trying to pick on you, but when you establish a pattern of showing up — to an online chat thread about baseball, mind you — and start the chicken-little, melodramatic, LIKEOMG bullshit to the point where it becomes a punchline, it’s time to switch to decaf.
