good thing I checked the main page one last time. Here’s my haiku….
Wandy vs. Waino
got no clever poetry
kick some Astro ass
“versus” is only one syllable when it’s abbreviated. Mm-hmm.
Which
is pronounced “vee.”

What I want to know is
What is Alberts Average when yoyu say he needs a day off or is not hitting well?
The difference between Dan and a good announcer
Is that Dan says “I would be interested to see what Albert is hitting the day after a day off” whereas a good announcer would cut that nonsense out, and just have someone find out, and then tell the audience.

loved the cartoon
and also liked the short lived live action tick
I also liked
Viva Variety that I think played after the cartoon block, another badly underappreciated show. Never got the british cartoon show on there, though.

looking at the Cubs game on GD
Zambrano was removed for Heilman, who was the one who gave up the GS. Zambrano charged w/ all of the runners on base, so he gave up 8 ER in 4 1/3.
