Cleveland Sports Forum

Well! Time for me to be heading home.

Unlike you. You were the one that made his wife sit through a rainstorm in an empty spring training stadium instead of leaving.

Unlike you. I will not be running for my high blood pressure pills no matter what you post. One of the benefits of not being an insecure sob like yourself.

I'd be careful. Sounds like you are close to needing high blood pressure pills yourself. No worries, as I have plenty of bottles of my own after a decade of living in California, and I'll happily share with you as I need them less now back in The South (geographically).

Do you use a caddy, or carry your own clubs? Or ride?

I have no idea about TFIR's wife and rainstorms, but I am one who has often thought it sacrilege to leave a game before the last out and have in the past espoused such thoughts to fellow fans in the stands.

It's also sacrilege to give up on a season before the last game is played. I don't care at all for Detroit or Chicago, but the only thing The Tribe can succeed in controlling at this point is effing up Chicago's playoff chances....and I say go for the brass ring and do it.

We're up 5-4 as we move to the ChiSux 7th.

ROTTINO!!!

Kipnis dives to his right, gets up and nails the runner with his throw.


"Rottino" sounds like a pasta of which I do not know the shape or purpose.

But Home Runs are good.

Kipnis up.

He's walked three times..


(on the ceiling if you "love me".......)

Nothing doing, this time.

But we go to Chris Perez time.

Hawk Harrelson notes that Chris Perez is a good looking left hander, 6'3 and 240 pounds.....

as Perez issues a leadoff walk.

And Harrelson utters "Paulie."


Husker, I now hate Harrelson, too.

Should have had the last out, but Lillibridge throws it into the dugout!

..............WE WIN!!!

I knew Rotini.


A also now know the Cleveland Indians front office are superbly complete eff upps for trading for Lillibridge.

"I knew Rotini. Rotini was a friend of mine. Believe me, Rottino, you are no Rotini!"

Chris Perez with the save, and we make life less fun for a Major League team not us......but better than us.

That's a good thing.

That's what we hang our hats on with this win, as Shapiro and Antonetti look to ship Perez out of town before Dolan seemingly wakes up from diddling himself to realize what the frick is really happening with "his" team.

I've posted many times before that I was at a bar in a hotel in Copley Square in Boston the night Lloyd Bentsen uttered those similar words, as I watched the debate at a hotel bar.

Not long later, I caught eyes with a girl gazing at me from across the room.

She took a seat beside me at the bar and after "small talk" she told me she was in the "entertainment business" and split her time between New York City and Boston.

I inquired if she had ever done anything "off Broadway," and and she replied quickly..... "no."

She told me she was tired, and she thought I looked like a good guy, and she just wanted a comfortable and safe end to her work trip for a fair price.

I bought us a dual shot or two, and likely another drink, and I escorted her back to her room.....and I went to mine, with nary more than an embrace. The debate had pissed me off, so her offerings were not on my radar screen of possibilities that evening, at any reduced price.

I learned later that hookers look to "catch eyes" with guys for their pickups.

She seemed like a good girl though.
