although, i think things are getting better. there are plenty of “good guys” in the tour and in pro riding elsewhere. but, yeah, it’s sometimes tough to know who they are.

Sori had a couple bad games after he came off the DL
earlier this year if i remember correctly
by West Coast Diehard on Jul 23, 2008 9:29 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
he's fielding well.
he knocked the ball just earlier, didn’t he?
Give him a few ABs.
