    it's bad enough he can't hit, getting picked off is inexcusable.

    oh yea, and what's with Pujol's stupid grin? i've always seen it but never heard it discussed before. just makes me want to slap it off his grill.

    Maybe he just thought of some new inventive way to injure an opposing player?

    he probably already knows he's gonna do us in and win a couple of these games because we are too stubborn to pitch around him. :p

    Man, that homeplate ump sure likes to call those low and outside the zone.

    He thinks Maddux, Glavine, or Smoltz is pitching.

    Well there's his first of the series. Is that his fourth of the year against us?

    Just in general.

    Earlier on they were saying things like "shouldn't be surprised the Astros have CRAWLED back into the race. They do it every year"

    Were we ever OUT of the race? And I wouldn't say we've CRAWLED. Umm, best record in baseball in May I think.

    Then things like "hard to understand how the Astros are in contention in this division"

    Then in the last innings they claimed Matsui's single had been scored an error. Then they were like "oh, maybe it wasn't. But there's an error on the scoreboard, can you remember any other error?"

    Ummm, how about the first freaking inning? ANKIEL

    nice copout call by the ump to avoid the cards blowing up at him.

    Because when you're up by a bunch of runs early in the first game of a long roadie it's generally not a good idea to dick around, nibble, run the pitch count up, & burn the pen? In any reasonably close game I totally agree.

    4 hit night for Pujols. We just can't get him out lol

    On another note, Villareal is warming up. Expect extra innings if we're lucky

    I hate Poo Holes with a passion. If he was on fire, I wouldn't even piss on him to put out the flames.
