    Yesterday, most people agreed it was OK to say it was a blown call.

    What most people had a problem with was this line:

    "The boos from the crowd of 47,424 were probably directed more at Davis than Farnsworth. "

    This just in: AP has editorialzed that Roger Clemens will sign with the New York Yankees. Stay tuned.

    Except this Yankees' fan.
     
  6. Sumpire? I have to ask - is that sumpire as in sucks like a "sump" pump? Is that the play on words here?

    Not to thread jack but I'm going to a poker party on Saturday - does anyone have any good recipes for a quick dish for me to bring?

    Two questions:

    1. Did the call cost the Yankees the game?

    2. Are there still 162 games in a season?

    If the answer to both is "Yes," then who the hell cares?

    I'd hesitate to post a new thread on day-old baseball matters without reading the MLB thread first; it was pretty well worked over there. Of course I wasn't content with that, so I posted this on the haiku thread:

    Bloomquist dives early
    Slides right through Cano's hard tag
    Ump giftwraps M's win.


    Which killed Doc's thread deader than Hogan's goat.

    No. A sumppump sucks, but the call was blown.

    Those people are Yankees fans, though.
     
  12. This thread was useless without a point ...
