We can shove Doxy to the front.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

It is a Lackeys Holiday.
There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

Thank you Drayton McLane.

Thank you Tim Purpura and Tal Smith for not giving up.

Fuck all you mediots and armchair GM's who constantly ripped the management for not making trades.

Thank you Garner for out-coaching LaGenius.

Thank you Astros for playing your asses off for 162 regular season games and, so far, 10 playoff games.

Scoreboard to the Astros!
Goin' for a bus ride.

Amen... McLane has taken it on the chin year after year.  Whether it was fans, players or event nitwit sportswriters, he's stayed on task.  Congratulations to the entire organization.  

So, does this qualify as a good first year as a GM?  Someone needs to give ol' Timmy a purple nurple to congratulate the hell out of that fucking-A genius.  He's going to have a hell of a time topping his first year as a GM.  

I'm in total disbelief that I'm getting to watch October baseball and it's my hometown team playing.  I'm not contemplating the ways in which I loathe the Yankees or BoSox because they are home jerkin' themselves off!  Gotta love it... unfuckingbelievable.
Apathy, Apathy, Apathy ... ahh screw it...
