I thought that was at bad at bat

swung and hit a weak foul ball to his off field on 3-0. Swung right through a fastball up and over the plate and flied out routinely.

I like Milton’s swing much better from the right side.

Good thing we beat the Nats

Now if we could actually beat more good teams, we’d be in great shape

And the eighth and final rule: if this is your first time at Fight Club, you have to fight.

go for it.

that would be a heck of a silk-screen, tho. Might be easier to do an online tshirt order.

It was a name

we all decided on in here one night. I can’t remember who came up with it.

by sue369 on Jul 16, 2009 9:03 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

It's named after the weirdo in the movie, Office Space.
