End of the Month

I figured I'd end the month and the week's apparent Leia theme with a picture of Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) as Slave Leia. The quality is horrible but it was a great episode.

Awesomeness

Man I love me some How I Met Your Mother.

More Slave Leia

Yes the Deal or No Deal hotties were very hot dressed up as Slave Leia. That and they looked incredible in HD.

I was searching for a picture of the Deal hotties in the slave get up but I was distracted by this picture of Kristen Bell. I'd seen more than a few images of her dressed up as Slave Leia in the movie Fanboys. All I have to say is that I approve.

My question is how is this movie not released yet? It should be a crime to keep a movie with images like that from the public. Stupid Weinsteins and their fight over something or other. I want my Slave Leia!

At least they didn't lose ground

Having the day off today at least prevented the Braves from losing another game. I'd say it could have prevented them from getting someone else hurt but players get hurt on off days all the time. Stupid ups and downs of baseball.

Oh Hell Yeah!

Now that is a way to get me to watch a reality show.

Stupids Mets

I guess it was too much to hope that the Braves wouldn't lose to the Mets all year. I guess they did have issues missing three starters today and having Hudson pulled after 3 innings. I really hope that Hudson isn't actually that hurt but this is the second time in three starts. I think he's probably hurt.

RB and WR

So the Steelers need help at OL, DL, and CB. They have a pretty good core of WR and sent their starting RB to the Pro Bowl last year. What do they draft, a RB and a WR with their first two picks. Granted I think the RB is a great talent or so the expects say. The WR is apparently good but was injured which is why he fell to the late second. We'll see how it works in a year or two.

404 Left

There are 404 total delegates left for the Democratic Party. Female Not Obama needs 435 delegates to receive the nomination. And people wonder why the real Obama isn't even paying her attention and is focusing on McCain.

Bring on the Mets

I'm tired of throwing out random comments about the Braves but I'm also tired of looking at the Hooters girls on the post below. Neither one of them are very attractive although both have huge fake boobs.

Tonight opens a series against the Mets. I like playing the Mets if only because win or lose it seems the Braves usually play them pretty well. We'll see how this weekend goes.

Hooters Bus

This is an inside joke for Pretty Bird about Chipper and a bus to Hooters. It isn't that inside of a joke but Pretty Bird and I keep it going and get a nice laugh about it.

Anyway as I was surfing for a picture of Chipper Jones this picture came up on the first page. All I did was type Chipper Jones into google and select images. I guess it sure isn't that much of an inside joke at all.

Happy Birthday Chipper

Two for two with a HR, not a bad start for your birthday. Oh yeah, a 6-1 lead isn't a bad start either.

Good Looking Scrubs

The Braves sure have made the past two pitchers look good even though they were scrubs. Tis life I guess.

Code Word

I'm going to have to come up with a code name for Hillary Clinton that way I get less ads for her on my blog. This is the third time I've seen an ad for her on my blog. Any suggestions for a nice code name?

Bittersweet Evening

It was sweet because Smoltz looked good. He's my mom's all-time favorite Brave and he's close to mine. He was so happy he almost looked like he was crying (we all know there is no crying in baseball). It was great. Of course the Braves lost. In fact after blowing up in the ninth inning they plain got their ass kicked.

That and Hillary Clinton won the Pennsylvania primary.

Well it worked before...well maybe not

All this talk about the key states for democrats being the reason Clinton is a better choice than Obama.

First off democrats are going to carry states like NJ, NY, CA no matter who is the candidate.

Second and more importantly they keep putting it into context of the last two elections. Well Clinton is carrying the states that democrats need to carry based on the last two elections or whatever random crap they want saw. This just in, the democrats didn't win the last two elections. I'd think you need a new strategy but maybe that's just me.

I'd probably be 53% republican and 47% democrat but the fact the democrats can't get their head out of their ass is the reason I'm a republican. Its almost like they like losing or something.

Four To Go

Tonight John Smoltz enters the game with 2996 strike outs. Well actually he's got 3190 Ks but that counts his post season. Sure nice round numbers are no real different than other numbers but they sure look better. I've always enjoyed watching Smoltz pitch and tonight should be no different. Go Braves.

No GTS

This is the first GTS since '02 that I won't be out. It seems like a lifetime ago when I wasn't involved with games.

A sweep, a streak, and .500

A real sweep (as opposed to the mini-sweep of the Mets two weeks ago), an actual winning streak of four games, and the Braves are back at .500. It would be nice if they would keep it up and then be over .500. Still having you're three best relievers (Gonzalez, Soriano, and Moylan) and four fifths of your starting rotation (Smoltz, Glavine, James, and Hampton) on the DL within the first 18 games of the season and still be only 2 games out of first and at .500 isn't bad. I expected issues out of the starting rotation, you don't put injury risk pitchers and older pitchers as your staff, but having bullpen injury issues wasn't expected.

We'll see how the next few weeks go.

Back on the Interwebs!

Our DSL decided to take a few days off. Mix that with my neighbor actually making his wireless network secure and I was out of the internet for two days! But I'm back online. I didn't even know what channel to find weather or news. How did people live with the internet.

The MVP is clear

John Smoltz for MVP. Sure pitchers don't and sure the Braves are closer to last place than first place. But the guys pitching with a bum shoulder and is 3-0 with an ERA under one and is striking people out like crazy. Too bad most of the rest of the team is sucking it up.
