Baseball. Why?
I don't pretend to understand baseball. I don't want to. I just think the phrase "taking the mound" is really funny.

Late Rally too Little Too Late
After many frusturating hours on my host site, all the technical issues have been resolved. We were unable to provide posts and updates, but we are now back online.
Tonight Randy Johnson took the mound against the Oakland Athletics in New York and it wasn't good.
The Big Unit was hit for six runs, five earned, in four innings as the A's took the first game in this series.
Yankees were trailing 6-2 until after a one hour and 27 minute rain delay during the seventh seventh inning. The rally started when Jason Giambi hit a three-run home run and Robinson Cano hit an RBI triple to cut the lead to one, but it wasn't enough as the Athletic's bullpen held onto the lead for the win.
Up Next:
Athletics @ Yankees 1:20 EST
Kirk Saarloos (2-4, 5.04 ERA) vs. Mike Mussina (8-1, 2.67 ERA)
Red Sox Update:
Sox defeated the Rangers to take over first in the East.
PATR Update:

"They have not had a defeated day of the year?"
That's not even English, is it?

Hey retard, heard of copyright? Shutting you down.
Oh, by the way, it's not English, it's American.
At the end of the last football (American) season, I decided to attempt to become a fan. Sports fandom is just THE thing to do where I live, So I figured I'd give it a try.
I will admit now that I can probably sit through an entire football game without falling asleep (although, I did go to sleep before the Superbowl was over, I have my priorities). I can't call myself a "Fan" per se, but I certainly think I could get through one game.
But Baseball? Cripes! There's more standing around in baseball than anything else. Wait, wait, wait. Hit the ball. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hit the Ball. Wait, wait, wait. Watch some rich guy spit and scratch his crotch (and that's the exciting part!)
This is why they sell so very much beer at the concession stands, even at $6 a pop.
More exciting than golf, tennis, and bass fishing.
This site has not been shut down in the 6 days since Stevie Wonder commented.
Just so you know.
I figured it would be a waste of time, you would probably start another blog and become my biggest fan. So I leave you this, don't steal from my blog, and if you want to comment, please, don't waste your time, nobody cares about you.
I find it highly amusing that you do not post an email address so that I may respond to you privately....and that you bothered to come back to my blog to see what I had written. Very ammusing, ta for that!
As I said before I am not against formula as such....all I am trying to do is get support for breastfeeding mothers because it is hard for a new mother to go out in public and actually feed their child - they are faced with disapproving comments, looks, told to move on, stop feeding etc etc....just for getting a breast out to feed a baby! Bottle feeders do not have this issue. If you had bothered to check out the t-shirts in my store you would see that I do not have any "anti-formula" designs - many other store owners do.
If you and your family tried to breastfeed and had problems then surely you can see that there is a great need for MORE support both from the medical profession and from the general public to make it easier for mother to breastfeed? Thats all I am trying to bring attention to - sorry you missed the point entirely.
I am a Pro-Breastfeeder - I believe that it is the BEST thing I can do for my baby - obviously if I could not breastfeed (notice could not - not will not) then of course I would have fed my child formula rather than let them starve.
My designs are not a "dig" or attack on woman who can not breastfeed....or even those that choose not to. In fact they are nothing to do with formula feeding mums at all!
Simply trying to make life a litle easier for those of us who do wish to breastfeed.
I really don't see why me expressing my views on this issue warrents you calling me scum...I believe that is an uncalled for personal attack and would kindly ask you to refrain from visiting my blog to personally attack me.
Time to update, sweet curmudgeon.
Yes, please update, you've got a rather unique blog here. :-) FOund you after you left a comment on one of my blogs ("With Sticks and Stones" in reference to my "nickname" for my psychiatrist). The Blog world needs more people like you around. ;-)
Very interesting!
What ball?
