NAHWAL 7/12/09 - Braves @ Rockies

My final NAHWAL. Parting is such sweet sorrow. But hey, these things happen...it was a good run, but its time for me to move on. I don't really know how much I'll be hanging around here anymore either...I'm ridiculously busy with "real life" and nearly every discussion around here results in people with thin skin making personal attacks on others, which is just uncalled for.

Game tonight is on the MLB Network at 8 PM. Check it.

If anyone wants to take over NAHWAL next week, shoot me an e-mail or post in here. Depending on interest, I'll run a poll tomorrow to let you guys pick who you want to run things...otherwise, its going to die, because no one seems to really care anymore. These things happen.

What a fantastic day today was...Francoeur is gone! Fantastic! I highly, highly doubt Church will be with the team this evening, so we should see him tomorrow...man, I can't believe he's gone. Awesome.

On a sadder note, I will officially be stepping down from doing NAHWAL after the game on Sunday at Colorado. If anyone wants to keep it going, please let me know by shooting me an e-mail (click my name), and I'll pass your name along to gondeee, who has all final say in the matters.

Red hot Rockies...lukewarmish Braves? Hey, whatever. Apparently the Rockies have really good pitching for once...imagine that. On a related note, looks like the NL is going to lose the All-Star Game again since Victorino was inexplicably voted in. This final vote thing is retarded, because all it does is encourage fans of teams with a player in the voting to start up some stupid campaign, and if the team is home at the time, to set up an unfair voting plan. Whatever.

To the house of horrors we go, with the wind blowing out...and I can't really write poetry, so we'll just stop there. Should-be All-Star Jair Jurrjens on the hill for ATL, while former perfect game tease Randy Wells goes for the Cubs. Wells is having a shockingly good season, and I don't think its that much of a fluke...just a real late bloomer. We'll see what we can do against him this evening.

Hey look at that, I'm getting this up 3 hours before gametime. Imagine that. Hope everyone had a good fourth...mine was interesting, got cut off at Chilis with a bunch of friends when only 2 of us were really drinking. Half of us each ordered 2 entrees too...that was fun. Still bummed out about my man McNair though...RIP to one of my heroes.

A happy fourth to all. I expect hardly any entries today because of the lovely holiday. Remember everyone, we have a 1 PM game today, and everyone will probably be blacked out of it because of Fox's lovely regulations...in fact, all but 4 games will be blacked out nationally since Fox holds exclusive rights to all games that start before 7 PM on a Saturday. So if you're not doing anything today and are in the mood for baseball...yeah. Sorry.
