Things Learned During Our 4-Day Staring Match With The Mets And The Post-Interleague Play Season Of PAIN
· It’s awesome that Chase Utley, who got A-Rod levels of hot votage, thank you world, is going to the All-Star Game, and yes, so is Brad Lidge, but where the F is Jimmy Rollins? Where, I ask you?
· And this is to say nothing of the fact that you should GET OFF YOUR DUFF AND VOTE FOR PAT BURRELL NOW, if only because the presence of him and Utley combined will make this year’s All-Star Game Poon Central. I mean, come on. Look at the guy. Even the Free Library is in on this campaign.
· That game on Sunday is still going on.
· And not for nothing, even though this Season of Pain feels unending, keep in mind that we are still in first place. For now.
· Even my mom’s girlfriends think Flash Gordon should be sent to the IronPigs with Wile E. Wifebeater.
· Speaking of, if anybody has the name of a good domenstic violence prevention charity, would you send it along? We may have something here.

Rollins is batting .272 with 6 HRs and 29 RBIs. Where is he? He’ll be sitting watching the game at home which is where he should be.
Last year he ended with 30 hrs / 95 RBIs / 20 triples / almost 40 doubles and 130 runs with a .296 average.
2008 projections : 12 hrs / 59 RBIs / 8 triples / 35 doubles and 70 runs.
NO WHERE CLOSE TO AN ALL STAR

Tell your mom’s friends that Gordon was sent to the disabled list on Sunday. Ask them to work on sending Eaton up the NE Extension.
