The Battle of Houston begins

Down in Houston for a 3 game stand. 8:05 pm start, don't forget. Two Shawns go head to head tonight. Shawn Hill (maybe) vs. Shawn Chacon. I'm sure a certain Olney resident will agree with me when I say:

Put your hat on straight, damnitt! Fucking whipper snapper. And GET OFF MY LAWN!!

The bizarre thing is he's from Anchorage, Alaska. Weird. Anyway, the dude sucks, as evidenced by Pittsburgh wanting nothing more to do with him after he pitched there for 1 1/2 years. Nats easily have 23 hits, while scoring 16. It should be way more than the good Shawn (Hill) needs, and we cruise to another victory. VICTORY! As Lou Brown once said, "It's starting to come together, Pepper. It's starting to come together."

Other news.. Elijah Dukes is all better. Well, his hammy is. The front office has said he will be called up when his performance determines it. That's great. Except, it's pretty fucking hard to let your performance speak for you when you're too busy getting thrown out of games. Jesus, Elijah. Is it physically impossible for you to go a certain amount of games without being ejected? You know, for the amount of fucking weed this guy smokes, you'd think he could chill the fuck out a little.

Finally, if anyone would like to donate to this wonderful blogger's Nats paraphernalia, feel free to get me one of Meat's bobbleheads from last Thursday's game. I sure as shit want it, but I sure as shit ain't gonna pay over $20 for it, though. Some are going for over $40 on eBay. That's insane. I like Dmitri as much as the next guy, but I'll use that for my beer and hookers, thanks you very much.
