So the fan poll last night was "Who should lead off?"

The fans voted for Getz, and so it was. Tonight’s poll was “Will they make more moves before the deadline?” and the fans overwhelmingly said yes. Please tell me they will be right again, and that Dayton has decided to run the team based on fan mandates from the TV broadcast polls.

Billy with a grounder. Odd.

Okay, well maybe we should tell that to Rain Man, because he practically bankrupted a casino, and he was a ri-tard.

The front office needs to hire you

to call shit.

Everyone who bashes Kendall..... he is a damn good catcher. Very smart behind the plate. He has great BAT CONTROL, which makes him a good top of the order hitter.

I like Alex Gordon right now.

He seems humble, beard is cool, recognizes his weaknesses. Also, I may just be saying this because of the last-second win, but he seems better.

Lazy to shave. GF 3.0 doesn’t like it much, but we’re pretty much just drinking and having sex. Nothing serious.

and man, he was honest and it was cool to hear him sound so positive.

by Crooow on Jul 30, 2010 11:36 PM EDT reply actions  

he actually was really pumped up rounding first. haven't seen that kind of emotion from him in a while.

that must’ve felt really good. i know a lot of RR’rs were feeling pretty good about it…

Just got home in time to see him hit the walkoff. Woooooohooooooooooo!
