He gave up a walk-off HR to Vlad Guerrero and Tomo Ohka got the win. 10,000 fans and neon green astroturf in a stadium that smelled like an old refrigerator. I am currently on a quest to visit all Major League Baseball parks. So far, so good. I have also seen, and kissed, the Stanley Cup. Three times.

    Athletes I've Played With/Against:N/A
    Sports Trophies/Awards:Nothing significant.
    Career Highlights:Honestly? Little League. In our championship game I struck out the side three consecutive innings in a rain storm with my grandmother watching who was dying of cancer.

    Bold I liked your gutsy post

    Explain, please.

    I think the name at the bottom of the photo gave it away.  Maybe if we don't say anything nobody else will see it.

    Smart I thought the following post you made was smart
    in What two NFL quarterbacks broke all passing records in Canada before starting in the NFL

    This isn't entirely true.

    Flutie was in the NFL BEFORE the CFL in 1986 with Chicago and New England, then he went to the CFL, then came back to the NFL with Buffalo in 1998.

    in Try to name all the opening week NFL Quarterbacks. Seriously, it's not that easy. The current state of quarterbacking isn't good.

    Got them with 2:31 left.  I was trying to figure out which team I left out.  Turns out it was the Texans and Matt Schaub, but I got it. :)

    Smart I thought the following post you made was smart
    in Alex Smith And Matt Leinart Are Not Good Quarterbacks. Not So Shocking News.

    This is a good post, although I still contend had David Carr been drafted by someone other than the Houston Texans in their first year, he'd probably be a pretty good pro.

    Smart Comment by Pat in What about Daisuke Matsuzaka for the Cy Young? | 6 days ago
    I don't understand why, when there are so many great reasons to give it to Lee over Matsuzaka, you would take 2 things that are essentially irrelevant, and use those. I won't even address the "learn English" part, because I'm assuming that was just a bad joke. But the injury thing? Mats (more)

    Smart Comment by krysyndaday in Does Los Angeles Deserve Another NFL Franchise? | 6 days ago
    Lord NO!!!!!!!!! Give some other poor state a shot at an NFL franchise or at least a State that can and will support another team. In fact, they would probably have a better turn out if they gave Montanna or North Dakota an NFL Franchise.
    Funny Comment by DrCommento in Does Los Angeles Deserve Another NFL Franchise? | 6 days ago
    But Florida already has 3 teams!
