Well that sucked. 

At least the Mavs put up a fight.  I still think they'll be okay going back home.  But this is why I hate the 2-3-2 format, at this point in time, the team who didn't earn home court has had more home games than the team that did earn it, and obviously home court is huge.



Breaking news:  The game ended 10 minutes ago, but Wade just went to the line to shoot 2 yet again.   ::)

It's a must win for both teams.

Whoever wins this almost always gets the championship.


Hopefully Miami's streak of not being able to win when trailing at the break holds true.

But something tells me it won't...

Ball or not, an ejection was not warranted.

I'm shocked that you started Prior today... after that long a layoff, there was bound to be major rust.  I don't remember specifically, but I think he did the same exact thing to me last year after coming back form injury - having one or two horrible outings before he got it going.

I'm sure he's going to get better (unless he gets hurt again...) but 6 runs in the first... ouch.

I found three this weekend at a little tiny wal-mart in a small town I was driving through in Texas.

So I have one carded, 3 loose.

Exciting.

I appreciate the offer Brent, but the only person I'd consider trading him for on your roster is Rodriguez - despite my incessant bitching about his lack of production so far.

And a trade for A-Rod is problematic for me (even if you were willing to give him up) because I've got two solid 3B already in Wright and Rolen.

Let me know if you want to trade Hernandez... I still can't freaking believe I cut him over Barrett - probably because I had him on my team last year and he got injured and never really did much for me.

Maybe that explosion is about to happen...

Teixeira working on glitch in swing


Quote
ARLINGTON – With an assist from hitting instructor Rudy Jaramillo, Rangers first baseman Mark Teixeira said he's identified the mechanical issue in his swing that has caused a significant drop in run production.

Now comes the tough part: fixing it.

Teixeira and Jaramillo spent a lot of time together on the just-completed road trip trying to create a little more lift when Teixeira hits the ball. Teixeira said his swing is flattening out as he approaches balls, and the head-on impact leads to line drives, but not fly balls that can carry.

Looks like he just earned himself another few weeks of fantasy playing time...

My injury situation is at least ten times worse than Dressel's


Matsui - who blew his wrist into a million pieces.

Brian Roberts missed a few weeks with a groin pull - he's back but isn't performing at the level that he was before.

Damon, despite 5 separate nagging injuries, hasn't missed many games - hopefully he won't start to.

Halladay missed a few starts early in the year.



I mean, I could barely count all that on one hand.

It didn't occurr to him that it might be a good idea to wear a helmet while riding a bike that's easily capable of doing 140 MPH?


Try 180+ MPH.

"Damon said his hamstring problem was connected to his lower back problem. It has nothing to do with his aching left shoulder, his painful right elbow or the cracked bone in his right foot."

Looks like my team is as banged up as Dressel, the difference being that I've got one guy who's injured 5 times instead of 5 guys who are injured once.

I'm going to be ******* furious if there isn't a parade down the street from here come next Thursday.

I take it back, the way the Heat are playing now, they head back to Dallas up 3-2.

The biggest reason I'm not panicking about these guys is the glut of Evo Sandtroopers that I already have.  But I'd still like to get a large fist-full of these guys.  In some ways they look even nicer than the evolutions ones.
