Seriously, you should be more precise with your diction. And your word choice.

Oh, and without anyone noticing the Giants have crept into 1st place in the NL wild card, by two games. Sure, it's only halfway through the season, but this is the best they've done since 2003.

That was a pretty generous error call. Well hit ball, bad hop, would have taken a good play to get the out. Ah, the advantage of the home scorer.

ETA: Not saying it was illegitimate. Just one of those calls that under different circumstances could have gone the othery way. I would have like, for instance, to see the scorer's head explode if Juan Uribe were an inning away from an error-less inning streak record.

Heads explode all the time in baseball.

No wonder Angels fans suck. They're coddled.

You just are never going to like Pierre are you?

Fvck Bud Selig, fvck making it count. It's an exhibition game! I don't give a rats ass who wins. I want to see guys swinging for the fences and pitchers throwing brushback pitches for comedic effect.

Meanwhile, the stupidest comment I've seen this year re: the all star game. "They should stop letting the fans vote, it turns into a popularity contest."

Really? The All Star game becomes a popularity contest? The horror!!
