umm without the bottom text there is no joke, which in turn means, there is nothing funny. so therefore you are wrong on that part. the picture is neither necessary or unnecessary. it has no real effect on whether its funny or not, it just makes it more funny.
oh and i would tell you that to your face too. so whether im behind a computer or not doesnt have any effect. there are some TAs that know how i am. blunt, even if it means i am an for doing it. i dont care. |

I know it's super early but has anyone else been surprised by how much the Tigers have struggled? Their pitching has been horrible.
Also, a lot of people predict the Rays will win 80 games. I doubt this is true but they've definitely improved and that coupled with what looks to be a strong Jays team, if they can stay healthy, makes the AL East a much tougher division this year. |

I've only been concentrating on the AL East and I find it disturbing that both the Sox and the Yankees are getting whipped by Tampa Bay and the Blue Jays.. |

i haven't paid much attention to the central or west either.
the rays have a solid offensive core, i just don't think their pitching is up to the test yet. they still have a few years left. as for the jays, looks like this may finally be the year. i was predicting this last year, but they look pretty good so far.
my predictions are:
boston 93 - 98 wins
yankees 92 - 97 wins
jays 87 - 92 wins
rays 74 - 79 wins
oriles 60 - 65 wins |

Yeah, the tigers have surprised me with their abysmal start. I still expect them to eventually recover and get back in the thick of things. |

But... where were we "arguing?" We were debating. That statement is for people who say "I don't give a . I'll punch you if I ever see you." Not for people talking about baseball statistics. |

BY ADAM RUBIN

The Mets will have a runoff to determine their new eighth-inning sing-along tune. The organization received five million votes at mets.com after inviting fans to choose from among 10 selections to potentially replace "Sweet Caroline." An issue arose, however, when Fark.com readers bombarded the Mets with gag votes for a write-in candidate: Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up."
The Astley tune actually won.
Rather than commit to that as the new eighth-inning song since it probably doesn't reflect the fan base's wishes, the Mets will play the top six selections once apiece during the first six games of their home stand. The one that draws the largest crowd response will stick. The other songs that made the cut, in descending vote order: "Livin' on a Prayer," Bon Jovi; "I'm a Believer," the Monkees; "Movin' Out," Billy Joel; "Sweet Caroline," Neil Diamond; and "Build Me Up Buttercup," the Foundations.
Mets officials suggested the initial results didn't necessarily force the runoff, saying the rules stipulated Internet voters would "help decide" the outcome.
WISE MOVE: Reliever Matt Wise appears headed for a DL trip with right forearm stiffness, which has sidelined the righthander since he surrendered a game-winning homer to Florida's Robert Andino in the 10th inning on Tuesday.
"I've had three elbow surgeries, and this doesn't feel like anything," said Wise, who signed a one-year, $1.2 million contract after spending the past four seasons with Milwaukee.
The Mets intend to call up Carlos Muniz from Triple-A New Orleans.
PINCHED: Jose Valentin, who has a pinched nerve in his neck, was examined in New York and will remain sidelined, though no surgery is yet scheduled. ... Duaner Sanchez, who tossed a scoreless inning Sunday for St. Lucie, is expected to make a final appearance for the Single-A club today before moving to Triple-A New Orleans. ... David Wright will join Al Pacino as guests of David Letterman next Monday. It will be the third baseman's third appearance on the program.

That's actually false.
