I will go with the FLA boy. Marlins have been HOT lately. Cabera has been hot lately. He may not win but he will make it through the first round.

The Marlins...hot? They have lost 7 of their last 10. They have the worst record over that last 10 game stretch in that very awful (except the Mets) division.

There is an entire armada in the river and when someone hits one out there its a total free for all to get the ball. There are swimmers, and guys in kayaks. They're hitting each other with paddles and darn near drowning each other to get the ball.

Great entertainment.

It's funny because Bill Madlock looks like he's still at his playing weight.
At least that's how I remembered he looked.

When I see Rob Reiner at the plate I'm reminded of a slightly older, slimmer Boog Powell.

Wright showed incredible speed out of the gate,but tired noticeably on the turn,and was vanned off(kind of like All Hail Stormy in a stakes race.)

Just got back from the Derby. Loved it and had a great time. Had never seen Ortiz in person before and he is a freakin beast but seems so lovable and genuine at the same time. No, I didnt win the 500 free round trip air flights but it was awesome that Howard hit that sign with his final HR. And Scuds, the Pittsburgh rivers (Allegheny, Mon, Ohio) are disgusting - brown and dirty 365 days a year with god knows what floating in them.

How dare you insult such a fine animal?! Hes running in NY tomorrow, first race, cheapo race so you arent going to get more than 3/1 on All Hail.

It was exciting to watch last night. Happy Howard won. He seems like a genuine person with a good heart, even though he knocked out Caberea I was still happy he won.

It was funny watching those silly people go after the balls in that yucky water. How much are those balls worth?

That was sweet! My husband fell asleep at the beginning of the final round. He was rooting for Dye and was disappointed. HA HA! He owes me an hour back massage because Cabera went further. We bet on the craziest of things don't we?
