Maybe not quite front page material, but I thought this was an awesome story, considering the CEO of the Pads (Sandy Alderson) was a former Marine. |

This may sound weird, but I was hoping the damage was to his pitching hand and that it caused some crazy movement like Mordecai Brown.

Why, because he blew his his own hand up with a grenade?
I hope he makes the majors, only because I'd love to hear him say "I'm a [censored] Soldier!" in a postgame interview. |

BRANNAN: The biggest thing that a lot of military guys get upset with--and this isn't for the people that show their support, it's the people that do some of the protesting and things like that--is that we're over there fighting for them. The biggest thing that people need to realize is that America is blessed--you're blessed to be born here. It is such a different world over there. These people are still living in the 1400s. It's an American dream to live in America. It truly is. And people take advantage of that, and that's what a lot of military guys can see. [/ QUOTE ] there's the paragraph on which im basing my callous argument =} |
