There's a decent chance this game won't start on time. They put the tarp on the field and although it's not raining at the moment, they told the fans to go up in the concourse area where there is covering, as there is a severe thunderstorm warning in effect and hail expected.
Also, Ron Villone was placed on the disabled list with a slight lower back strain. He said he tweaked it while covering first base on Tuesday night and that it got really bad Wednesday/Thursday. Brian Bruney was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre

It's Andrew Miller vs Roger Clemens
Andrew Miller was less than 1 year old when Roger Clemens struck out 20 Mariners in 1986
I am old
Who would have thought those games against Seattle in September would be looming so large?
Sully you have lefty twins, it does not matter that you are old!
Also, I was thinking of Michael Vick today ...
Moses killed and Egyptian soldier.
Look at David and Bathsheba.
Saul/Paul held Stephen's coat when he was stoned to death. (Yes, by rocks!)
All three went on to become pillars of humanity.
None of us can say what God's plan is for Vick. It must be hard to be him right now ... to be that lost ... George Foreman was also very lost, and had a vision of hell and came back to be a truly great man. He was even going to fight Tommy Morrison when TM got Aids ...
Let's sing like those puppets did in Team America "Everybody's got Aids, Aids-Aids-Aids, my cat's got Aids, grandma too!"
Anyway, I am just feeling sad right now for him ...
Another thing. I don't like Seattle. I think it's a stupid place, so why should they be in the playoffs?
Angels
Red Sox
Yankees
Indians
Detroit
Seattle
That's how I would rate the teams now.
I wish it was Roger Clemens vs. Arthur Miller.
There was a huge storm in St. Louis today ... I saw a funny cloud which looked like a funnel and I was thinking of Toto and a tornado and running to the cellar ... instead I just went to the tanning salon.
It's safe there.
Very safe.
Will this game be rained out?
You know the best thing about Detroit?
Leaving!
Sully,
Did you know that Roger Clemens was 24 years old when Andrew Miller took off his diaper and wore it on his head?
Colony-
Lay off the shrooms pal. I'd find you somewhat funny but feeling sad for Vick is inexcusable.
Comparing ancient biblical and historial figures to Vick doesn't quite correspond. Last I read, Moses, David et al. weren't making 130 mill. and fighting defenseless animals.
Now, if you were creating the idea that Vick should have the punishment that was considered normal back when Moses roamed, I'm all for stoning the fool.
Colony, I had a diaper on my head last night
I love people are trying to say Dog Fighting is a cultural thing and that he fell into the wrong crowd
What if he WAS the wrong crowd?
F him
Stick,
I just feel sorry for HIS SPIRITUAL STATE, that's all ... I was not clear enough ...
Just because we've given up on someone doesn't mean God has given up on them.
I can't even believe I am writing this ... but I do feel sad for what he has become ...
"There is more joy in heaven for one sinner repenteth than a thousand righteous." Clearly Jesus came to call sinners, that's what John McAurthur says anyway.
What do I know? I am not the Fourth Member of the Trinity.
Clearly Vick is so warped that he doesn't even realize the evil he's done. But what is that compared to the fate of Channon Christian and Abeer Hamza?
And no, no shrooms ... but you may want to check out the ecstasy commercial parody on Mad TV (go to YouTube.com) it's hysterical.
We should not rejoice over the plight of the wicked, rather to pray for them, and their souls.
According to you Stick, Baby Wasila would have been orphaned in Nigeria had the Miss World crowd not stood up for Amina Lawal when they were going to stone her to death.
I agree with you in principle. Vick is sickening. But we have grace now, in addition to wrath. I am not prepared to say he can't change. We are all only one decision away no matter what we have done.
Still again, Vick is disgusting, and there are millions more like him out there. And more being born and raised in such filth everyday.
God help this country ...
Andy Pet It ...
Vs.
Michael Torture and Kill it ...
had to jump in on the vick discussion even though this is a yankee board...has anyone hear had the pleasure to read about these braindead retards in Atlanta wwho still look upon Vick as a hero, a victim of circumstance who is being unfairly targeted and singled out. That killing dogs is somehow being blown out of proportion. From what I have heard and read this does not seem to be the sentiment across the county, but as long as there are ignorant morons out there who will defend their heros no matter what, athletes and other celebrities willl continue to operate above the law.
This man doesnt deserve forgiveness. This was not one isolated incident that happened in a fit of rage or moment of stupidity. This was not someone committing a crime in order to feed his family. This is a person who committed disgusting crimes over amd over again for a long period of time not for profit, but simply to satisfy his blood lust.
