    Guess we can add pirates to the list of things that aren't what they used to be:

    What, did you expect anything other than a total blowout?

    I mean, we are talking about the Pirates aren't we?

    Yes, that's true, but even the French are a $195-$100 favorite against the Pirates, particularly if Charlie Morton is on the mound......

    Plus, the hiring of Sarkozy is turning the French franchise around nicely.

    1,577,853, but some were season ticket holders so they were counted more than once.

    Would have been better to blow the SOBs out of the water and leave them as shark bait.
