Its great to have a REAL all star on our team this year...and be able to argue that there are a couple of other guys that could have been there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35861640.post-71111573288071028842008-07-15T22:24:00.000-06:002008-07-15T22:24:00.000-06:00D.W., I always enjoy success against the Cards.

I just straight-up don't like them, and La Russa annoys me more than almost anyone in the world.<BR/><BR/>Mike, I noticed that. Until the 9th inning, the only time they had even mentioned Soria was to point out that he was sitting next to Rivera. It would be nice if they'd talk about the game happening on the field once in a while, for once the Royals have a worthy All-Star and they don't say one word about him, even when he notches a strikeout.Mindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12296930777620801951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35861640.post-12117167220810720772008-07-15T22:12:00.000-06:002008-07-15T22:12:00.000-06:00So Soria is pitching right now in the All Star Gam...So Soria is pitching right now in the All Star Game and doing his usual great job. Unfortunately, the Fox Announcers (I refuse to refer to them by name) are more concerned talking about hypotheticals if the game goes further than talking about the amazing season that the Royals All Star is having. Ugh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35861640.post-25668706185678361192008-07-15T21:36:00.000-06:002008-07-15T21:36:00.000-06:00I think my favorite moment so far was getting a sw...I think my favorite moment so far was getting a sweep in St. Louis. Always nice to quiet the "Best Fans in Baseball." And being 21-22 in mid-May was a nice change from the past few years. We'll just ignore the next couple of weeks after that point.Darinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07466110985286682805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35861640.post-51884621085640077452008-07-14T19:50:00.000-06:002008-07-14T19:50:00.000-06:00So we were at the mall yesterday afternoon & I was...So we were at the mall yesterday afternoon & I was standing outside one of the sports stores watching the game while I waited for my sister-in-law. At the point when Davies gave up the single in the 7th & Mahay was warming up, I was like okay, time for the change. No change, home run, and Michelle caused a scene in the mall ranting about Hillman! What a dumb ass - can he not change pitchers ever? He puts way too much faith in mediocre pitchers when he has some of the best relievers out there! I left after that, knowing the game was over as usual.
