I am waiting for a meeting
at work, but there is nothing I can do until that meeting so I made this. The benefit of being a grad student I guess…

Also, I am sorry
if you took any offense to me making fun of you in the recap, but you seem to be able to take a joke well.

There you go...I filled it all in for you
There’s an icon to the right of the text area that looks like a green picture frame. That’s the insert picture icon. A TV is next to it. You can probably figure it out from there next time, though we usually host pics at imageshack or the like first.

I think it's OK to import pictures
Either way, so long as we’re not leeching images.

The fangraph was a photobucket

Awesome work
Made me laugh all over again. Graph is hilarious. All in all, it was a fun night even with no baseball.
Free Seth Smith, damnit!
wtnelson points out in a fan shot
that Renck gave us a “tip of the hat” for being all over the call up
Start Seth Smith! Free Eric Young Jr.!
yeah see that's pretty cool
