Up

I'm sure the kids loved the adventure with Doug (and the other talking canines), Russell, and the exotic bird......but for me, personally, all I enjoyed was the side story of Carl and Ellie. I can understand why the film couldn't stay focused on them......I mean, it's a Disney film.....hmmm, am wishing Pixar never sold out to them. It would be interesting to see Pixar do animation for an older demographic.....but maybe this opens the door for other production companies.

The team so far...

The team appears to be getting in a rythm and that's good news.

• The starting pitching is holding strong (good to see Zito getting consistent and more confident).
• The bullpen has also toughened up (Romo and Affeldt have held up well).
• Schierholtz is being rewarded for making good contact (and sadly Lewis has gone back in a slump)
• The pickup of Uribe is paying dividends.
• Burriss is consistent and clearly the better choice than Frandsen.
• Torres is an excellent utility right now. Whiteside shows promise as well.
• Sandoval is....well....the Panda! (....and Bengie is.....the Big Panda!)

Hermione no more

I'm not into fashion really, but seeing Emma be the new face of Burberry.....she's absolutely stunning.

Randy's 300th

Watching Randy dive and throw to first like that.....not bad for a 45-year old, huh? Congrats on reaching 300, man!
