Although I have built and maintained my own websites for years, this is my first foray into blogging, and right now I'm regretting it. Why did I decide to open this blog? What the hell did I expect to gain from it, except maybe a little extra traffic for my other sites? Did I even think I would get that? Why do I have this compulsion to develop useless web space? Why am I asking myself all these fucking questions?
Enough. It's time for a little stream-of-consciousness action while watching a few innings of this west-coast game. Frank's boys already won -- victory a must -- Phil Niekro's nephew starting at first for the Giants -- Who are these umps? -- only one I recognize is Larry Young, the crew chief -- Is Furcal trade bait? -- he looked horrible on that last swing, everything flying open toward first -- Kelly Johnson continues to look good -- Giles .750 lifetime against Schmidt after that 2B -- Andruw less so, but drives in Johnson w/groundout -- the infield's ability to turn two has been a tremendous asset -- Will the Braves be the only team in the NL East to lose tonight?
Drowsiness setting in, tomorrow will come too early. I'll check the score in the morning.
UPDATE: They blew it. How the hell are they supposed to win the division without a bulpen?
