For example, our buddies from Washington posed for the following heartwarming shot:

Incontrovertible Evidence that Matt Holliday Hated Oakland

A lot has been made of Matt Holliday, and his perceived indifference while playing on the A's. I set out to 1) see if Matt Holliday did, in fact, hate his time here and 2) quantify this indifference. You'll find the shocking truth after the jump.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Mia was released from the NICU on March 28th after nearly four months. She was born at around 1.7 pounds, and now weighs about 6. She's a healthy crying, sleeping, and excreting machine. It's great to have her home.

DLD 2/9/09 I Need a Fix

I have a confession to make. I'm addicted to DLDs. A few years ago, when I really wanted to fit in with the all-time AN greats, I not only started using DLDs, but I also occasionally stooped to the level of creating crude ones in dark rooms. Anything to get my fix.

So, now I'm going through withdrawals. It's relapse time. In truth, I never stopped using—my supplier just ran out. I'm not only ready to use, I'm itching to abuse. Let's make this daily, folks.

Baby Mia

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everybody for the prayers, good vibes and well-wishes. Baby Mia is steadily improving each day. We're really hopefully that she'll be O.K. We really are touched by the outreach here. Thank you all so much.

A plea for help

I'm not normally one to do this, and I do so at the risk of offending some on here. But I believe in the power of prayer, and we need all the prayers we can get.

 

Earlier this year, my family and I moved to a small island in Japan. My wife was pregnant, so it was a big leap of faith for her to come out. Early Monday morning (in Japan), she was having a lot of pain in her stomach, so we called a rescue boat to the island to transport us to the hospital. She gave birth to a 26-week-old girl on a tiny rescue ship in the middle of nowhere in a country where she doesn't understand the language.

 

Baby Mia was born weighing 1.9 pounds. Her lungs and heart are underdeveloped. She is fighting for her life. For such a premature baby, it's a miracle that she is as strong as she is. We would appreciate any and all prayers on her behalf.

QOTM: Early Thanksgiving Edition

Since nobody else wants to do it, I will. I'm too lazy to go back farther than a month. Besides, it's not Quote of the Last 2 or 3 months. Let me know if I missed anything.
