God didn't like K-Rod's two game suspension either

No appeal there.

So A-Rod got injured last night after being hit by a batted ball in batting practice

He says he did not see the ball because he just got done waiving to Joe Buck in the Fox booth.

Now that is SO A-Rod!

Dud, who cares if he likes you!

You know, Buck has said numerous times that he prefers football to baseball.

That is why he did not waive back!

Manny "hurt" running the bases

Pardon the skepticism but isn't this about the time he starts his summer vacation.

With no missed time from a drug suspension, I think he needed to get back on his schedule.

Mid-August return?

Yeah right! We believe you!

Tigers catcher Gerald Laird said he heard a "pop" emanating from Joel Zumaya's shoulder on his final pitch.

Sorry! Calling bs here!

He is 60 feet away! In a stadium with thousands of people no less.*

At least he did not say it sounded "like a gunshot".

*I was listening on the radio and didn't hear nuthin'.

POST SCRIPT - I see Zumaya has a non-displaced fracture of the olecranon (elbow). Actually I had that years ago due to a bike crash but a little worse as mine was a displaced (clean break) fracture. Obviously no two injuries are the same but for me excruciating pain for a day or two followed by general pain for 4-5 weeks. Back to normal in 8-10 weeks with therapy and no surgery for me. Did a triathlon during treatment as unfortunately I prepaid. In my discussion with the ortho doctor and him showing me the x-rays, there really is nothing to "pop". It is not that kind of injury. I think Gerald just wanted to talk.

You would think a team that wins as much as the Angels would know how to celebrate properly

You know without broken bones and DL stints.

I mean seriously.

Geez!

Now if it was the Orioles or Pirates, I could see it.

See you in court!

In follow-up to my 9-25-09 post, I note that Derrek Lee is still out of the Cubs lineup after suffering "severe and permanent personal injuries and grievous harm" when he was "negligently and recklessly battered" by teammate Angel Guzman when Mr. Guzman refused to "cease and desist" during a "prolonged, excessive and unnecessarily dangerous" dugout celebration last Thursday.

Something tells me that the attorney for Derrek Lee will be meeting the acquaintance of the attorney for Angel Guzman very shortly. Something just tells me.

Look, I don't know how many lawyers there are in the United States but it's like a mega-high number* and the constitution has already been written so they all need something else to do, you know.
