Diamond stories

Move over ... Arizona? OK, I don't really know who the nation's top softball programs are, but whoever is running shit on those tiny diamonds best watch their back. "Oh Yeah, Well We'll Beat You At Scrabble," the lovable losers of Carleton College intramural softball, just won its first game of the season. In a thrilling finish, staff ace Tyco Nightglow hit an RBI double in the bottom of the last inning to secure the W. Come now, there's no need to mention his two throwing errors in the top of the last inning that let the other team back into it. Or his repeated groundouts with runners on base earlier in the game. Can't a brother have his parade? Damn haters.

I guess I should say something in this post that people might actually care about. City of God is a tight movie. If I still remembered any Spanish, I'd cop the book too. As is, I'm just waiting for some lazy ass translators to put down the latte and go to work. You hear me Collins? I know you speak Spanish and shit, what the hell are you waiting for? Actually, the book was written in Portuguese (it takes place in Brazil). This complicates things a little bit. Wait, isn't that Nene's language. Let's go Hilario, there's no point in working out this offseason if all they're going to do is feed Melo. How 'bout some ayuda with this literary job? Damn, that's Spanish again. I'm an awful person.

PS - That little spell checker we've got on this blog is so cute. I mean Dakota Fanning guest starring on Friends cute.
