Pinstripe Alley Thames starts against a lefty, again.

I wasn't impressed with Thames in his start against the Sox. Now he starts against a lefty again despite Gardner's .333 AVG. Why not let the GGBG play, with his speed he can get a lucky hit or 2 and steal a base. Come on Joe, don't take people out the lineup when they are playing well. GGBG is 1 for 2 against lefties this year. Everyone knows Brett can impact the game in a lot of ways, which I can't say the same about Thames. This is why I don't like Girardi, he always goes with the stats instead of his mind and guts. Maybe I'm wrong and Thames will have a big game today, but it's unlikely. The guy is a .240 hitter in his career. If going with the stats, Joe, why not take Grandy out of the line up (Cervelli forbid), he's way worse against lefties than Gardner.

Thames to teh pen!!!

Cervelli bless everyone and go Yankees!

Stampede Blue 2nd & 1 Anyone?

Everyone talks about Garcon and dropped pass on 3rd and 4 as being the crucial play. Does anyone even remember how we got to that 3rd and 4? It was 2nd and 1 and for some unexplained reason after all the success running up the middle with Addai coaches called a stretch play to the right that lost 3 yards... ofcourse after that came the drop. Drop balls happen and its human nature, but bad calls, and not going with whatever works is completely ridiculous. In my opinion that was a stupid mistake that might of cost us the game. It wasn't Pierre's fault.

Stampede Blue Funny Story

I got this as a forward on my phone. Thought it was pretty funny. Congrats everyone on the win!

Tom Brady, after living a full life, died and went to heaven. When he got to
heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a
faded patriots flag in the window. "This house is yours for eternity, tom," said
God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here." tom felt
special, indeed, and walked up to his house. On his way up the porch, he noticed
another house just around the corner. It was a 3-story mansion with a blue and
white sidewalk, a 50-foot tall flagpole with an enormous colts logo flag, and in
every window, a blue and white Colts towel. Tom Brady looked at God and said,
"God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro
QB, I hold many NFL records, and I even went to the Hall of Fame." God said "So
what's your point tom?" "Well, why does Peyton manning get a better house than
me?" God chuckled, and said "Tom, that's not Peytons house, it's mine.

***GO COLTS***
