That would make the whole season ok in my book

What would the implications be going forward?

BTW, I voted Pujols. These things are a crapshoot, but it would be kinda cool to see the 1st half MVP win it in front of the home crowd, and I like Pujols in spite of myself.

I don’t think it gets them out of paying Soriano’s salary.

They said something about having to do it to make sure they aren’t liable for the Tribune’s debts.

I voted Prince

because he is big and chubby. I can’t bring myself to vote for Prince Albert, but I kind of hope he wins. Itmakes his grand slam look more inevitable.

by Red_Poodle on Jul 13, 2009 6:10 PM EDT reply actions  

I voted for Pena

Hey, it’s a crapshoot. Why not?

Plus, he’s “the one who got away.” The Yanks let him exercise his option and leave their AAA team. They said they didn’t care how well he was hitting; they had Andy Phillips. Then the Yanks DFA’d Andy, and were desperately seeking a first baseman. But they still didn’t want Pena, who joined Tampa as NRI. The rest is history.

I was wondering the same thing

So I stopped at the store and got me some frozen raviolies.

And your answer is . . . Because it’s a pain in the ass. First boil jumbo ravioli until nearly done, then fry in a shallow spitting pool of olive oil while splashing tobasco over the top. Flip each individual piece and repeat. Then remove to a plate and spoon the sauce over each one.

It conveys the same kind of stature as Musial had (although Albert’s downplaying this) and pays homage to his roots.
