Close. Another win is the best win. Kumar gets another W. Hoby should closes.

Stupid DirecTV always shows the Friday game on the grid as coming on, but then says I'm blacked out. They know they aren't showing it. Come on, man!

Glad I missed this on. That series sucked. KC still Rangers kryptonite after 50 years.

The Wrecking Crew and Carol. Fixed. Feisty old bat...

Welp, got screwed out of one run, anyway. Rangers Rangering again.

So unfair that they got the best Bobby Witt. KC screws the Rangers yet again.

Interesting matchup tonight. The Royals even rank behind the Rangers in runs scored after the recent spurt of offense. Hope Lieter can keep showing some game to game consistency.

Nice win. Luke is a mediocre pitcher that misses his spots because he's inconsistent. But Garcia has good stuff and melts under pressure. Luke is probably preferrable in most cases, but neither is a good option. Unless Winn or somebody suddenly comes on and catches fire, there needs to be another option brought in soon if they are serious at making any kind of run at respectability.

I like his guitars, except the Silver Sky bullshit, but Paul does seem like a bit of a douche.

The annual college football magazine thread
Athlon once had the most beautiful football magazines every year, best look, best photography, great covers. That was back in the day. The CFB issue I saw this week was total goatass. Pretty much all the mags today are meh, at best. All outsourced generic shit. Most of them sold their names years ago and are just cranked out by different publishers on the cheap.

Garcia just ain't got it as a closer.

Here's another strange Brian Wilson story from Otis.

Good win. But this 9th inning closer situation...doesn't seem sustainable. They gotta get somebody that inspires a bit more confidence.

Bernie wrote about it. This is a nice listen from Otis Gibbs.

Their 2012 reunion album and following tour with the legit living band members was really surprisingly great. Check it out if you haven't heard it. Amazing ear for harmony and interesting changes, funky left field ideas that somehow worked brilliantly. He could make a goofy teenage surfing song sound like great art. Yeah, I'd call that genius. He had a gift only a few people on the planet ever approached. Don't let his awkward persona fool you. It was all about music.

We also thought that about a month ago and it didn't work out so well. But maybe the bats are finally awaken to some degree, and the pitching won't tank.

It was already 6-1 when I got the game on. Kinda took a lot of the fun out of it. Great series, though. Keep it going!
