Thornell Schwartz! Cuttin' up! Paul Humphrey on neutral ground. but - Bob West on Fender bass? Huh? Why? Uh...no, please?

Scott Joplin Fred Chopin Jim Chapin

Yes. I can't believe it, she wrote 'September' and 'Boogie Wonderland' for EW&F and 'I'm so Excited' for the Pointer Sisters. Pretty funky lady She's a product of Detroit, apparently. Detroit got it like that.

It's been a while since he pitched, even in a rehab start...I think they've known for at least a week, figure they kept from announcing it officially until after the trade deadline.

Oswalt to the bullpen, Feliz to have TJ surgery http://www.lonestarball.com/2012/7/31/3207505/oswalt-to-the-bullpen-feliz-to-undergo-tommy-john-surgery#storyjump Ridin' that newly-resurgent Scott Feldman, baby! Onward! Glad more than ever to still have those top-level prospects in place and not given away in a panic deal in what is shaping up to be a pretty rough year for our pitchers. Come back healthy, Neffy & Colby.

People's lifestyle choices often change as they get older.

The main thing now is to just be better and less broken than Oswalt. Still expecting Yu and Ross to get tired (and plenty of other bumps in the road), but it's a viable deal coming at a good time. Don't see it hurting anything, I'll put it that way. Doing nothing would have.

Reports coming in that Rangers land Dempster. He's older than Oswalt! But not as broken! Yay!

I absolutely agree with you. Why more Christians don't get on board with that concept is beyond me. You simply cannot shove religion down somebody's throat...it has to be a personal choice. Well put. An atheist simply cannot be a Jewish believer. i don't know what you wanted us to understand when you replied to Pete C. "An atheist simply cannot be a Jewish believer." did you think he wasn't aware that the term 'atheist' means a person who thinks there's no God? 'cuz i assume he does know that. and i also assume that you know he knows that. what are you saying exactly? do you know? i'd like to know... not interested, eh? not surprised... Pete knew what I meant and that is enough for me. I have nothing to add. I just wanted to keep those embedded quotes going. Careful. We once broke the internet doing that.

Allee Willis, it says.

Maybe, but I get damn sad thinking about her life..... Yes. But. That's a difference between performances and people. That clip is 2:35 and it's there to take or leave as we wish, in theory forever., and it will always be the same thing every time. Estelle Bennett was 67 years, 24/7, and no matter where she went, there she was. In real time. So...I can never think about her life as much as she had to. But that clip, I can revel in. Pop music!

Estelle Bennett - sexiest ever? Even more than Ronnie? sometimes i think yes.

Taking the world and knowing it. Not sustainable, but that little window of peakness is still pretty badass.

How does this happen?

The more I think about it....get Ogando stretched out, fuck Oswalt, and let's see if that's good enough to get it done. May not be, but geez, nobody gets it done every year, and no sense dumping your two biggest prospects for a two month gamble in a year where a lot of things besides Roy Oswalt haven't really been clicking. In the meantime... HA!

This guy says forget Lee, stand pat, call up Olt and start benching Michael Young: http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/id/27482/rangers-should-keep-olt-and-call-him-up I do not reflexively disagree, not at all.

I'm thinking you got an older man with an achy back and a kid who wasn't projected to even be on the roster this year maybe starting to show some big-league wear and I'm wondering how much of the future I'm wanting to wager to stop the bleeding right now... I don't know. I honestly don't know.

I feel like Joe Tex and the lady with the skinny legs...

And just like that, it's allegedly over. No deal. http://www.lonestarball.com/2012/7/30/3204856/report-trade-talks-between-phillies-rangers-on-cliff-lee-have-all-but All things considered, good!
