Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Game #I don't know Thread: Part II

Let's see, it's only the fourth inning and already we're busting out another thread.  Reds only down 4-3, which is a fewer number of runs than most of the crew has had in drinks.

And to carry the mojo:

Remember, it's a Two-times Tuesday!  Hooha!!

Oh, and Milton apparently has a no-hitter still.

Daedalus
methinks you are going to wake up in the morning and wonder who that is sleeping in bed beside you.  You'll roll over to find it's Red Reporter, but the last thing you'll remember is Red Reporter offering to do shots with you.  And then you'll wonder why Red Reporter wants you to meet the parents (Reds Daily).  And you'll try to explain that you just want some time, but it's too late.  Red Reporter has already moved in a tooth brush and has an underwear drawer.
