Once again he stairs at the sky flat on his back, (he being BO) from the ball whizzing by his head. As with shovels, it is so with baseballs. If you keep throwing balls, people will start walking.

BO do you know “Who’s on first?”

Larry, you have such a way with words! I stood next to Rick Sutcliffe once at Dodger Stadium (I think it was the 80's); he was huge...like 6'6" or something.

Your team should be in good shape. But noooo, Obama wants to blame everyone else. See, he doesn't ever consider that he's blaming his own team because he's a team of THAT ONE! There is no one else but him. Yeah, if you’re only replacing your pitcher in the 9th, that guy kicked ass. Your team should be in good shape. But noooo, Obama wants to blame everyone else.

He, unlike you, is not walking around butt-snorkeling a <strike>fraud</strike> Messiah as he leads you off a cliff. But I suppose you'd have to be above a lemming on the evolutionary scale to understand this. Why don't you ask The One You've Been Waiting For to bail you out by giving you a critical thinking skill. Oh, that's right - he hasn't got any to spare. Slim Intellect,

Why the hell would the relief pitcher want to change the game at that point? Most starters are pulled nowadays after 125 pitches at most, some at 100, and a lot don't even last seven innings any more. Did this guy ever watch baseball, and I mean sometime in the last decade? Many relief pitchers are specialists or situational pitchers, too, coming in for a specific batter, leftie versus rightie for example. A relief pitcher, however, who comes into the game in the ninth is usually the highly prized CLOSER. They are paid millions of dollars to get three outs and are not usually used if the game is a blowout.

I am impressed with everything about Larry, you asswipe. You, however.....I am wondering if you even have an eighth grade education. Your level of intelligent discourse (as in, it's nonexistent), your inability to answer even the simplest question even though Ferd nicely repeats it since you don't grasp things the first time you hear them (the SATs are going to be very hard for you - better start prepping now), and your schoolyard nonny-nonny-nonny drivel lead me to believe you are the product of the Annenberg Challenge, still trying to make it out of junior high.
