I knew there was something I needed to write about this morning. Thankfully, Tom came out of his shell/closet and reminded me of this gem.

Now, I could go on and on about how players have to turn the other cheek, or fans don’t have the right to be jackasses just because they buy a ticket (though a good heckle is ALWAYS appreciated). But all I’ll say is this… seeing how its the Rangers bullpen doing the throwing, I’m just impressed Francisco didn’t bounce the chair in the dirt.

Seriously. I counted the Rangers out weeks ago (I swore I wrote about it, but it must have been an illusion), but this series at Oakland was a chance to get back in it. Sweep and you’re a game or two out. To blow a lead in the first game of the series, with your “ace” on the mound in the 10th is ridiculous. And its not like he got squeezed and then made a mistake for a game-winning homer, it was walk, walk, error, walk, pop out, strikeout, single for the win.

Three walks, one error, one hit, two runs, and a folding chair in some chick’s forehead.

At least the Browns are undefeated.

Speaking of which, my picks from earlier in the weekend came out to be slightly below average, posting a 7-9 mark for the season (which is better than I can say for my Maxim pool), and I’m just one game behind Pete. Look for this heated rivalry to continue, and look for both of us to pick against the Browns every week, because apparently, it works!
