Not sure, Cycledan.

Tribe is 92-63, Sox 92-64, Halos 92-65.

The other thing to play for is the option on the extra day off. The Yanks might "want" Cleveland, but perhaps not if it means full rest for CC and Carmona to pitch twice.

Maybe if we get some rain, these games will get smushed together without the off-days anyway.

(Anyone think Selig would use a snowstorm in Cleveland as an excuse to move the playoffs to Milwaukee?)

It is interesting how there is almost no motivation for the 4 AL playoff teams to win right now. It seems like Cleveland and LA will have homefield over the Yanks and Red Sox so winning the division doesn't mean anything. Also if Cleveland has a better record, they get the WC team. Since the Yanks would rather play Cleveland, it is better to get the WC than win the division.

Yanks have to get Clemens, Pettite, Mussina and Rivera rested. Red Sox need to get Manny back in shape along with Youkalis and even Ortiz. Plus their Japanese pitchers look worn out. It seems like they are hoping a little rest will get them back in early season form.

The NL somehow turned into a dogfight in almost every division. The AL teams are definitely better but we may see the NL team take advantage of the AL teams beating each other up again.

2007-09-25T15:19:55.468-04:00

Speaking of uniforms, in the Rugby World Cup, teams are all wearing synthetic looking, tight fitting collarless jerseys. I am sure it is easier to play in a synthetic jersey that dries off faster than cotton, I am sure a collar is only an extra handle to get yanked by. Also I am sure the big muscular guys like showing off their bodies but I hate it.

If it wasn't for the size of the rugby players, they would look like - gasp - soccer players. The US has two games left. South Africa will kill the US team so their only chance for a win is against Samoa.

In general, defending champ England may not even make it out of the round robin stage, New Zealand looks unstoppable with maybe South Africa or Australia being the only real challengers to them.

Of course this great tournament gets absolutely zero coverage in the US with tape delayed games on the Versus network.

2007-09-25T14:17:03.296-04:00

The new Rays uni's are totally straight from a beer league softball team or something. They really do look like the jerseys my buddies pizza place got for the t-ball team they sponsor. I wish I had the strength to just use a red hot poker and burn my eyes out rather than look at that crap for god knows how long. They might even be worse than those godawful unis that the eagles wore last weekend. I have a replica of every Rays jersey and I can assure you I won't be buying any of these new ones. the should have gone with the old st pete saints uni's and changed the name to the saints. Now that would have been cool as we have never lost when we have used anything related to the old saints franchise.

2007-09-25T14:08:57.624-04:00

I mentioned this the other day when Sheik brought it up, but the Rays' new unis look like they should be for RAY'S Pizza in the local beer league. Not a winner.

(I'm sure Jerry Remy will mock Ray the mascot wearing the new digs next year soon enough.)

2007-09-25T14:08:37.520-04:00

The best part about the show house is that Hugh Laurie is fucking english. I was so used to him being in shows like blackadder and jeeves and wooster that when he was started house it just blew me away. He was always hilarious as an idiot on Blackadder which makes it that much more weird seeing him play a serious character when he has typically been rather goofy on screen.

2007-09-25T14:03:11.425-04:00

of all shows starting back up, i am most looking forward to House tonight. Has there ever been anybody who played a prick so well on TV?
Don't watch that much of regular TV, mostly sports. The only other show that I make sure to watch doesn't even start until Jan, "24." BTW, way to go Kiefer, your 2nd DUI! Thanks for taking the chance at killing someone in real life.

I wouldn't pack the moving vans to Oklahoma just yet. The guy who is leading the charge for the city of Seattle is 3-0 against sports leagues winning against MLB twice and the NFL once. Also, the lease is pretty strong in favor of the city. This one is gonna go for the distance, but I definitely wouldn't count out the city.

@Cycle:

Our friend Ryan went into the back to get the manager because he said there was no way in hell he was going to serve us. Since this was a place we frequented we knew the manager as well. He loved the idea and made Ryan serve us even though he was not happy about it.

A friend of ours who bet that we wouldn't do it picked up the $45/$50 bar tab. So it was definitely worth it.

2007-09-25T13:44:42.594-04:00

The closest to wearing women's clothing I will go is wearing my kilt. Of course If I were to wear that with a button down shirt I would look like a trollish catholic schoolgirl. There was a gay bar back in Tampa years ago that had a college night for all the straight people, but if you went in drag you got nickel beers. I probably would have dressed up for that but I was way too young to go to bars back then so it was never an issue. It is pretty quick for Delahoya's hooker friend to recant her story when she was on live tv last night talking bout it. I am sure someone could have photoshopped the pics off of her camera but she was adamant that they were the pics she took of him last night. As much as I don't pay attention to the tabloids and stuff entertainment tonite is one of the few respectable programs of its kind. I would think they would have done a pretty thorough investigation before showing pics on tv of that nature. Otherwise they are opening themselves up to a huge lawsuit. I guess I will have to make my woman pay extra attention to this story since she can't get enough of that crap.

If so, it was worth it.

2007-09-25T13:26:15.894-04:00

I thought Chuck was a little too goofy. The female lead wasn't all that believable in her role and a lot of the dialogue was clunky. Really hard to balance being a goofy show with also being some sort of CIA undercover show. Maybe it will get better but I wasn't that impressed... even though Adam Baldwin rules all.

2007-09-25T13:24:50.195-04:00

Okay, I have to admit, I have worn women's clothing.

It was summer school in college and the place where a friend of ours worked was holding a ladies night with .30 wings and .25 draft beer.

We got the idea from Bud Light's Ladies Night and yes there are pictures.

But come on, .30 wings and .25 draft beer!!! We were in college who could pass that up???

Speaking of women's clothes, apparently the NY Yankess haze their rookies by making them dress up as Wizard of Oz characters. Some funny photos. Not bad being the lion or scarecrow, not sure I would like to be the Dorothy or the good witch. I guess money is not an object in finding good costumes for them.

Photos

In High School, we made the rookies wear skirts or dresses to school. Kind of funny but they stamped that out quickly.

2007-09-25T12:12:34.763-04:00

De la hoya's hooker was hot. Of course it led to an awkward conversation about whether or not I would ever want to put on womens clothes(hell no). I had no clue where my woman was going with that line of questioning.

Next thing we are going to hear is that De la hoya has the anally injected death sentence.

Has anyone seen the pictures of oscar delahoya in drag getting fucked by a hooker. I was waiting for the game to come on last night and my girl made me put it on entertainment tonite. they are talking about some lawsuit the golden boy is starting against a prostitute who he hired to come to some hotel in philly and dress him in drag and fuck him. They were showing pictures of him in a dress and makeup and a wig to him in a pink gstring and fishnets. The prostitute even has signed an affadavit stating that those are the real pictures that were taken off of a camera she owned. Why hasn't anyone been talking about this.
