Thank God My Boyfriend Loves Baseball, Otherwise I Would Move to NYC to Stalk Phil Hughes

Excellent! Noted hottie Phil Hughes has his own little slice of the internets.

He runs contests, tells us about the music he likes, and wow does he have a shitty digital camera.

The Phil Hughes Weblog.

Oh, Phil Hughes....want to lick.

Eat it with a fork.

I love winning. I'm a competitive girl, so anytime I or "my team" wins, I am happy. I watched the game tonight on and off between work and the bar, so I'm thrilled with what I saw. One thing all y'all must recognize is that I catch games whenever/wherever I can. If I'm at work and I can turn on FSN, I will. I am also dorky enough that I will make my own scorecard to watch the game and notate with. People wonder why I'm single.
My #3 BF (Jason Bartlett) played lead-off in the batting order tonight. First up, gets a BB. That's okay. He ends up scoring the first run of the evening off of Mr. J Mo. Love it. KC answers back with two runs in the second. I had to stop watching because I was at work and had to do work-y things. Go figure. All I know is that I ended up at the bar later with my friend Amy and saw that we were up 5-3. Guess what? We ended up winning 6-3! Cash money, hoes. In T9, I guess Casilla scored because my #3 BF got him an RBI. I like it. Mr. Bartlett tends to have trouble in the first few innings of the games he plays in. I don't know why...we haven't talked about it yet. I made a psuedo-scorecard out of a piece of lined paper and here are the notes I took:

• I heart ankle protectors....they're hot. Don't ask me why I think that.
• What's so Royal about Kansas City? Answer me that.
• Grudzielanek: Long name, pretty face.
• Casilla = Bad bunter. Don't know why.
• LaRue looks like a midget standing next to J Mo...maybe because J Mo is 6'4"
• Scott Baker has nice lips.
• BF #3 and I need to have a chat about game beginnings...not fucking them up.

I'm really excited to see Nick Blackburn's progression. I think he could be a huge asset to our bullpen next season. Obviously we're at season's end so we're bringing out the new kids to see what kind of damage they can do, but I think Blackie's gonna be a great addition to our team. Feel free to leave your comments. I'm kinda drunk. Going to bed. Kisses!

Things Matt Garza Likes

Sorry we've been slackers lately. Lauren just moved and does not have internet at home yet. On Thursday, I was giving 22 a big, warm welcome. Now, I am back at it.
So, if you look at Matt Garza's bio pic, he's so happy looking! Quite some time ago, Lauren and I were discussing this and wondered "Golly, I wonder what Matt Garza likes? He sure looks like something makes him happy." Therefore, we started listing possibilities.

• Puppies that are soft
• Ice Cream
• Sunshine
• Mommy and Daddy
• Smiling
  
• Baseball
• Torii Hunter
• Bonfires
• Rainbows

• Chocolate Milk
  
• Friends
  
• Watching Mr. Rogers
• Birthdays

Then again, there are things that Matt Garza does not like:

• Owies

Okay, these lists are works in progress, so we will add as needed. Feel free to suggest.

Top 10 Spread

This is the list of the Top 10 "Most Spreadable Twins Players". For those of you unfamiliar with this concept, when a player is attractive, we tend to say, "I want to spread him on a cracker". With that, I give you the Top 10 Spread.
10. Scott Baker RHP
9. Torii Hunter OF
8. Johan Santana LHP
7. Pat Neshek LHP
6. Joe Nathan RHP
5. Justin "J. Mo" Morneau 1B
4. Garrett Jones OF
3. Jason Bartlett SS
2. Matt Garza RHP
1. Joe Mauer C

This list is based off of sheer appearance, it has nothing to do with stats/performance.
