Perks of the job

not lately...although I do sense that my boss is a little fed up with one of my co-workers. But they have worked together now for about 5 years...I don't think he'd fire her.

i don't like the dodgers

[rmartino]

i don't know what that means

[GravyTrain]

the los angeles dodgers, a MLB team that dates back to the early 1900's i believe where they were originally located in Brooklyn

relevance to the subject?

[GravyTrain]

in the past, i've always been a closet cubs fan...usually following openly the team that Alex Rodriguez was playing for. Now that he is a Yankee, i can no longer do that.

I have always hated teh Yankees, always will hate the Yankees, and there is nothing that can change that.

I think this year, i'm going to be pulling for the red sox (and cubs)

I was a big Dodgers fan in the 70's,when I was a little kid.Garvey,Cey,Lopes...Rick Monday.Good Stuff.

ok...we'll make this about baseball then....as many know, I've always been an Astros fan and with this years additions to the roster, I say they have a good shot at going all the way. I do know, however that all predictors point to the cubs, but I have and will continute to pull for Houston because let's face it...a cursed team doesn't stand a chance...especially after last years little incident.

i will not deny the astros are going to be pretty salty this year, for crying out loud, they got two of the greatest pitchers in the game today (we will see if the rocket can continue his dominance, even though i believe last year was a bit of a decline)

if they do get to the playoffs though, pettite will be a huge addition with his post-season experience.

overall, i think the astros do have a good chance as well.
