Off Day Boredom Relief

Recent Hilarious Happenings:

-The latest 6 year old temper tantrum in baseball thanks to Carlos Zambrano:

When will they ever listen to Jimmy Dugan?

P.S. Despite the modern twist, with a beverage machine instead of water cooler, Paul O'Neill still takes the cake when it comes to smashing.

- My realization of why Warner Madrigal makes me giggle inside:

Tell me you see the resemblance.

- The return of Toronto's incompetence. The Blue Jay team has finally dropped out of first and have begun their decline, which was clearly highlighted by a stellar effort yesterday. Halladay going 7, leaving with a 5 run lead and still a loss? That is more like it.

- Cash's trip to the mound last night that lasted all of two seconds, in which no words were exchanged. Picking up the rosin bag, dropping it and jogging back? Classiiic. The look on A.J.'s face? Priceless.

Sweet Shizz:

- The new bleacher tee graphic by Bald Vinny made because ""Teix Message" is F'n Stupid":

.. which no doubt would've gone well with this screencap of "The Teixecutioner" at work:

For anyone wondering.. ^that^ is the first step to crushing a baseball.

- CC, Swish and some of the other guys heading to the NBA playoff game in Cleveland tonight, according to Bryan Hoch. Cavs must win with the boys in the building.

Side Notes:

- Seriously.. what would it take for Veras to disappear? With the way the Yanks work, the only answer I can muster is.. improvement. Veras apparently learned a valuable lesson from Nuke LaFarnsworth.. continue to be an epic failure and you'll keep getting the ball. Start getting guys out and they'll up and ship you to Detroit.

- Unfortunate to see Melk out of the lineup for at least the next few days, but Brett The Jet never ceases to amaze. The legs on Speedy Gardzalez makes baserunning seem like a sport all its own.

- Saltalamacchia's rainbow-esque display of his name on his back is chuckle-worthy enough.. but Flash's struggle with pronouncing it gave me another good laugh.

- According to Pete Abe, Posada will be activated tomorrow..

- An update: Tex = beast.

- Yanks were tied for first before the Sox unfortunately won their game today.. but I'm thinking Yanks claim sole possession real soon.

On Deck: Pettitte facing Cliff Lee tomorrow in a game I won't see because it's Prom night, so I hope Andy will mow 'em down while I'm watching people do idiotic things.

In The Hole: I'm hoping continued dominance from double half a squiggly.

Off The Bench: Hughes taking on he who must not be named.. Would love to see some retribution this time.. but more importantly.. Must see him stub his toe or someone drive a ball at him..  No way Cleveland gets to have him for a full season either..

P.S. I was randomly watching women's college softball on ESPN today [no idea why] but upon stating that one of the female players was a "loyal Seattle Mariners fan", one of the analysts actually said "you'd kind of have to be loyal to be a fan of Seattle".. burrrnnnn.
