Needs fulfilled


He shoots, he scores!

No help from Senior Cuervo was necessary last night to assist the MILF in getting her freak on. I feel great - its amazing how a good session of hard core pound fucking really helps to put things in perspective.

Cactus League Update: Buehrle was the story - pitching 6 perfect innings, and striking out 7. Takatsu, however, gives up 2 ER in 3 IP. Ozuna continues to impress, he was 2 for 3 with an RBI and a run, and took an extra base which set up a Sox score - he came home on the next play, a nice squeeze bunt from Burke. Piezynski goes 1 for 3.

Over the past few days the Sox have made some roster moves that I've failed to mention because they 1) are obvious and 2) aren't carved in stone. The roster stands at about 36 with two weeks left to go in spring training.

I also haven't bothered to mention anything about the steroid hearing on Capital Hill. There is no news in this dog-and-pony show. My opinion is that 1) its fairly obvious that the likes of Canseco, McGwire, Sosa and Bonds may have likely possibly took performance-enhancing drugs that allowed them to elevate their home run prowess to new levels. One only needs to look at Sosa's build with the Rangers or Sox compared to his time with the Cub (or Bonds with Pittsburgh vs SF). I don't think its possible to build muscles like that from working out and drinking protein shakes. 2) Canseco is just trying to sell books 3) Frank Thomas never took roids and 4) baseball officials likely have known about this issue for years, but have never wanted to let the cat out of the bag, for fear of baseball's image losing even more ground to football and basektball (and, ugh, NASCAR. Whatever happen to gentleman's pursuits like croquet and horse racing?). And that the "new testing system" in place is woefully inadequete. I say let McGwire and Bonds' "records" stand sans asterisks, the same way Pete Rose's records stand, and serve as a lesson to those who believe they are bigger than the game. The opinions expressed above are just that - opinions. I have no proof, its just my gut feeling. What the hell do I know, I could be wrong. But one great thing about freedom and democracy is that it allows for speculation like this... Or at least it used to. If there is no new entry here on monday, please tell the Feds to look for me in Bud Selig's basement. This is the last you will hear from me on this issue.

Baseball Phrase of the day: high cheese n. a fastball delivered high in the strike zone.

After my excitment with the MILF, I was charged up and watched some late night TV. I made the mistake of switching over from Public Access and "Glamore Productions Presents Star Performers Showcase Hosted By Rocky Esposito" to VH1's replay of last week's Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Inductions. I despise the notion of a "rock and roll hall of fame", and watching these multi-millionaires pat each other on the back makes me want to heave. I side with Johnny Rotten on this one - the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame inductions have just become a place for Springsteen and his pals to jam. Blah. Dinosaurs of rock. Most of the inductees just suck suck suck ass. I give U2 some credit, they sucked for a year less than REM - Bono and the boys stopped making worthwhile music in 1986, while I haven't found a need to pay attention to REM's products since 1985s "Dead Letter Office." And as bad as watching the Pretenders uninspired set was, its worse to watch so-called role models like Bono hob nob with Catherine Zeta Douglas Jones during a version of the stupid "End of the World" song. Hey, Edge, you wanna stop poverty in Africa, sell one of your $100,000 Gibsons. "This song is not a rebel song, this song is 'Amish Paradise'." "Rock and roll is revenge". "Stop the traffic." Shut the fuck up, Bono. Take your money and get lost. We're tired of your stupid fucking "message".

We'll see if the real heroes of the genre, the likes of the Stooges, Husker Du, Motorhead and the Replacements ever make it. Doubtful.
