I cancelled MLB.tv last month, and for the second straight year they charged me the month after.

It's fucking OCTOBER 15th. All the games are on free TV. Why would I still want to subscribe?

Well, I'll say it: it'd be nice if Joe Torre managed the Blue Jays next season. Not that I think he has any magical powers (spend 4x another team in your division and spend a billion dollars in payroll over 4 years and you're guaranteed to make the playoffs) but he has that Cito Gaston mentality of Not Fucking It Up. I think he (Torre) could steal a couple games in a way that Gibbons doesn't seem to.

With football, I tend to dislike the players. They are the ones out there trying to injure Saints every time we get good. With baseball, I really just hate the fans. Torre's OK in my book. Not a hall of famer unless he takes another team to the playoffs, but a good enough guy as far as I am concerned.

The best part of the Injury Ruins 07 Jays thing is: a guy on the Jays DID actually die, albeit in the off-season. I think we definitely got hurt by injuries more than anyone else this year.

Well, then... The Blue Jays should honor Kennedy by not sending a pitcher out for the first play on Opening Day and we can all accuse the Red Sox of being classless when they have the gall to take a swing at a ball sitting on a tee.
