Yay! They start tomorrow!

I dont doubt it, I was listening on the radio and they seemed to blame Wiggington. Tonight it was Pie's turn to run into an out. I agree, so far this team is making it hard to enjoy any aspect of their play.

Dee, how could you forget Dr Sexy Md? I liked "What Is, And What Should Never Be" where a demon seemingly transports Dean to a time where his mother never died. Seeing him so happy even mowing (well trying) the lawn to the sounds of Joey Ramones cover of What A Wonderful World makes me smile every time. I like the current season but I do hope this storyline ends this year and they move on next season. Though I worry that Misha Collins wouldnt be in it then, and I like him.

I do think the Capitals are better than the Devils, I just think the Habs have a better shot against the Capitals. If that makes sense. Even in off years Brodeur kills his home town Habs. And the Habs always seem to have trouble playing against a system team like the Devils. The Capitals are more of an aggressive speed team and the Habs seem to fare better against those types. Even if they dont I feel it will be an entertaining series. The Habs played a few stretches of hockey this season where they have been very competitive against everyone. The Habs also split the series with the Capitals this season with two games going to OT. Of course at times they played so poorly that they could be beat by anyone too. I like the Capitals, and hope they go far once past the Habs, but I have questions about their goal tending and defensive play. I really think they need to at least get to the conference finals for this to be viewed as a successful season. Its weird in a way, a number of the better teams in the NHL have what some view as shaky goal tending. The Capitals, Black Hawks, and even the Penguins lately do not seem as strong in goal as some would like.

Great baserunning by Wiggington. Runners on 1st and 2nd with two down and the ball gets away from the catcher. So Ty starts to go to 2nd and stop, getting himself in a run down for the final out. And ofcourse the Rays score the next inning.

LOL as a Habs fan I am glad they made it into the playoffs but was hoping they would hold onto the 6th or 7th spot. Though I admit I would rather face the Capitals than the Devils, Marty kills the Canadiens. Plus a Jacques Martin coached team vs a Lemaire coached team would be as exciting as watching paint dry. Not that I think they Habs have a reasonable chance of winning against the Capitals, I don't.

Perfect! Wieters gets on in the 9th despite needing base runners Wiggington fights off the very first pitch he sees to weakly ground into a double play. It really is a textbook display of how not to start a season. You have a team that has higher expectations than they have in years - and trying to convince its fans of that, and you have blown saves, leave tons of men on base, and make poorly timed errors. Way to build some enthusiasm.

Very nicely put DC.

I just got back from the print shop where I picked up my "lights out" very in demand Mike Gonzalez T-shirt and I had a question. Is Luke Scott too selective at the plate? It seems like he is always waiting for the perfect pitch......

Now I want to see the next one!

Shhh! I have last nights DVR'd and will watch later. I know soon they have a 100th episode and lots is supposed to happen then.

It was nice to see Ash last week. I listened to Dee about this show a couple of years ago and I am still watching and enjoying. Luckily enough people are watching that it keeps getting renewed.

I would have been livid if they lost.

Whew, had me sweating.....

Not really

In the fantasy league we can make 6 moves a week anytime we want, but they are only take effect the following Monday?

What do you mean?

It was a very frustrating game. I know the old rule of thumb is that when the season starts the pitchers are ahead of the batters, but still.

Does that usually come back to hurt a team? I wonder who I blame?

That guy is cool. I'd vote for him just for fun.

Sounds good to me

I wont be here for the draft, but I have ranked my players

Its not easy to turn around a franchise that had fallen so far, and their have been many miss steps along the way. However I do feel that they have done some solid work building the team up the last few years and I think it will begin to show this season. Its also not easy when you are in the same division as too teams that can outspend anyone else.

I can see where someone could think it was a skull. It could also be a bowling ball or a rock too.
