its seems that we've all been a little busy lately so there hasn't been much activity on the old blog. I posted some new links on the side but i'm sure no one noticed since there weren't as many as i had originally thought.
As the wind dies down on trade deadline Saturday, it would seem as though the marlins made out like bandits. they picked up loduca, got jaun encarnacion back, added a rock to the bulpen (mota) and replaced penny with equal value in Valdez and picked up a few prospects all for the low price of one struggling 1B (choi) and a pitcher they seemingly have wanted to trade for some time plus a few prospects they weren't very high on. congrats to the marlins for screwing everyone. The sox made out alright for having to get rid of no-mah, mentchevich (who knows how to spell his fucking name!?) and cabrerra are going to fix the defense enough so that they won't have to trade Lowe anymore. the only problem they may have is if both continue to struggle at the plate. of course, nomar wasn't exactly lighting up the monster this year.
hey, hey, the terror alert is up again. this time its been narrowed from a general terror alert to a more specific, "some economic target on the east coast". great. i'll be sure to stock pile duct tape and bottled water. I saw the manchurian canidate yesterday. It reminded me of the dick cheney E! True Hollywood story. of course it could have been edwards too. i think cheney more because those republicans are sneaky, why assassinate the president when he could just be a lame duck? cheney has run this country more then 25% of their time in office anyway.
alright, i have nothing more of any substance to contribute. i could talk about the San diego comic con but i'm sure no one wants to hear it.
