Irked.

Go Phillies. "Tied for wild card lead" is a much better headline than "Cory Lidle Irked when Rain Interrupts his Evening." Watch the Phillies lose live today at 1:05. Tickets are still available for the Labor Day weekend series. Not good tickets.

In other news, I'm busy.

Yeah, I think those free tickets ruined Nationals games for me, I'll likely never care enough about the teams playing to be willing to pay to go to that bathroom hole stadium.

I always come back to wanting these. Because it's like how much more black could ya get? The answer is none...none more black.

Those remind me of goth kids in high school. The Ramones black chucks (Black Shuck?)just work better. Also, I don't like black except for album covers.

Get these instead.

Head about that on the news this morning. Apparently, he wasn't satisfied with the way Mr. Six was running the place(s). Hopefully we'll see Joe Gibbs on a waterslide in a tux by next summer.

So Outdoor Life Network is primed to win the NHL TV contract, cuz ESPN pulled out. Where are the play-by-play guys? From the Philly Inq.:

"Most of ESPN's hockey staff has dispersed or found other work within the company. Play-by-play announcer Gary Thorne does baseball and college football for the network. Bill Clement has various assignments there and covered Olympic events for NBC. Analyst and former player Darren Pang left ESPN to work for the Phoenix Coyotes. Brian Engblom left for local television in Columbus, Ohio. Ray Ferraro is announcing with Edmonton, but Barry Melrose remains at ESPN."

I can live without Pang and Ferraro (and quite frankly, EJ Hradek), But Clement and Thorne's goofy canuck asses better transition.

Potential question for the GoGs: "Erik Lund is coming down this weekend. What do you think will happen?"

I really enjoy Gary Thorne, heard him do a UMD football game last year and he seemed bored by the whole thing, like it was moving too slow for him. His announcing definitely contributes to the excitement of playoff hockey. As for Clement, it is impossible to criticize someone whose upperlip has never seen the light of day. Barry Melrose is annoying but I hold a special spot in my heart for him because my friend Brian's Dad looked exactly like him. He was the consummate hockey dad, graying slicked back mullet, head of his chapter of UAW, owner of a Clyde Simpler-era Chevy Blazer and an Eagle Vision. So I hope either Barry Melrose or Jerome DeFord jumps to OLN.

Probably some crazy music, Danish engineering, San Diego-style, acne scarred lawyerin', or some letters with lines through them, but most likely very little steer rasslin'.

Pardon my French, but I wish Howard University's own Sean Combs would shut the fuck up.
