Bill Bryson on cricket:
After years of patient study (and with cricket there can be no other kind) I have decided that there is nothing wrong with the game that the introduction of golf carts wouldn’t fix in a hurry. It is not true that the English invented cricket as a way of making all other human endeavors look interesting and lively; that was merely an unintended side effect. I don’t wish to denigrate a sport that is enjoyed by millions, some of them awake and facing the right way, but it is an odd game. It is the only sport that incorporates meal breaks. It is the only sport that shares its name with an insect. It is the only sport in which spectators burn as many calories as players — more if they are moderately restless. It is the only competitive activity of any type, other than perhaps baking, in which you can dress in white from head to toe and be as clean at the end of the day as you were at the beginning.
Imagine a form of baseball in which the pitcher, after each delivery, collects the ball from the catcher and walks slowly with it to center field; and that there, after a minute’s pause to collect himself, he turns and runs full tilt toward the pitcher’s mound before hurling the ball at the ankles of a man who stands before him wearing a riding hat, heavy gloves of the sort used to to handle radio-active isotopes, and a mattress strapped to each leg. Imagine moreover that if this batsman fails to hit the ball in a way that heartens him sufficiently to try to waddle forty feet with mattress’s strapped to his legs, he is under no formal compunction to run; he may stand there all day, and, as a rule, does. If by some miracle he is coaxed into making a misstroke that leads to his being put out, all the fielders throw up their arms in triumph and have a hug. Then tea is called and every one retires happily to a distant pavilion to fortify for the next siege. Now imagine all this going on for so long that by the time the match concludes autumn has crept in and all your library books are overdue. There you have cricket.

So bottom of the inning...
leave Hawk into bat for himself… or concede the game if we don’t score a run and are forced to bring Welle in?
still have thompson
but who would bat for him? LaRue, Wainwright?

he’s a total idiot, but how do you have a minimum sentence of YEARS for having an illegal concealed weapon.
If you want to be strict, months would do it.
Um.
Because it’s an illegal fucking concealed weapon?

it's the minimum sentence and the mayor (senator) is dead set on enforcing it
what can he do? I’m not a student of the law, so I really don’t know. Maybe they can get the violation changed somehow.

It’s a mandatory sentencing law for New York. No plea bargain allowed for this. He’s gooned.

I mean, maybe there wasn't a lot he could do (even if he was drunk)
if someone doesn’t see you coming you might not even be able to break in time if sober. Assuming he wasn’t speeding I could see it.
Without more info it’s hard to truly judge, but I still think he should at least spend months in jail.
FYI I think he hit someone crossing a crosswalk
or maybe it wasn’t even a crosswalk, I don’t remember.
Yeah, that's the bullshit thing.
There are at least two or three or more murderers playing in the NFL, but let’s put the people who abused dogs and accidentally shot themselves away.

A decent justice system shouldn't penalize ...
for “could have.” Nearly 4 years because he “might have” done something to somebody else is pretty steep.
GREAT win!!
I think we’re in line for an UGLY lineup tomorrow. Who sits?
Molina for sure
Likely DeRosa
Pujols probably plays because you don’t want to sit a guy when he’s coming out of a slump.
Holliday OR Ludwick will probably rest if not both.
Dont be surprised if we see something like:
Schumaker
Rasmus
Pujols
Ankiel
Stavinhoa
LaRue
Ryan
Thurston
Lohse

Just a standard day off.

i've tried to be good & let it go
but tonight pushed me over the edge. i don’t care how bad he feels, i really don’t anymore. he has no place on this team anymore. Craig should be up & he should be down.

ooooh, we're just barely holding on to a .5 game lead on the Cubs according to SC
uh…excuse me…we’ve been playing the Phils and Dodgers in case you hadn’t noticed SC, the F;ubs have been playing what, the Reds and Astros? (again, selective memory, please)
I vaguely recall seeing analysis of team's chances to make it to the playoffs
And even though, at the time, the Cubs had their .5 game lead their chances were still only 37% or so while the Cards were a little above 50%. I’ll see if I can hunt it down.
