You Can't Have Nice Things

See, this is why I'm such a Gloomy Gus -- because 36 years of bitter experience have taught me that the expected outcome often comes to pass more often than not.

It also reaffirms why I find 3 a.m. local time starts so irritating.

This is why I took the day off from work on Wednesday and went to the game. You need to cherish every Rich Harden start that you see, b/c you won't see many of them.

To be fair, the A's say that Harden's start is merely being pushed back to the weekend. But I think I can be forgiven for assuming that they are pulling my leg.

Unless Duke's tenditis improves drastically he's heading for the 15 day DL.

And so it begins.

Damnit, I know it shouldn't surprise me, but still.

MLB Heavyweight Champion

If MLB champs were decided like boxing: beat the champ, and you're the champ.

The 2008 season started with the Red Sox as champs. They were beaten by the A's, who were beaten back by Boston, who were then swept by Toronto, who lost to Oakland, who lost to Cleveland, and so on, until we reached our current champion.

The Heavyweight of the Year is the team that wins the most title bouts at the end of the season.

Current Champion (as of 5/17):
Cincinnati Reds
