PrintToronto Blue Jays at Cleveland Indians, May 12, 2008 8:05 PM EDT
So the lineups for the game being showed by SB Nation's content carrier are just the same as last game, which has got to be wrong, I'd imagine. But since the Jays haven't scored over the last 2 games and in fact have only managed 1 run in the 3 games so far in this series, it doesn't really matter what the lineup is, does it? Put it this way, to be watching the Jays at this point, you've got to have some pretty deep-seated emotional and/or mental issues. Allright, see everyone at gametime!

I don't think 'who watches over you' is a question in that lyric.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
it doesn't surprise me that you'd say that
but I disagree
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Isn't the singer the blue canary?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I always thought there was more than one character
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
It's like, 'canary that watches over you'
except a canary is animate, and in this case sentient, so you say ‘who’.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Yeah, I get, I'm not an idiot
but you’re not going to convince me, I did a college paper on the song
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Who would the other characters be?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
in my paper
the question posed was who looks out for the blue canary when it’s so busy worrying about everyone else all the time?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
But the singer is the canary
“I_ have a secret to tell, from _my electrical well.”
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
It really screwed the pooch on the _'s that time.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
certainly
the verses are the canary’s. I mean, he says “My name is Blue Canary”. Doesn’t get much clearer than that.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
But if the chorus is sung to the bird
why does the bird need to make a birdhouse in his soul for the singer to live in (as the bee in the bird’s bonnet)? Is the singer also a bird?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
the other singer is God
telling the blue canary that he spends all of its time looking out for other people and neglects itself. Hence its need to carve out a little space in its soul for itself to be nurtured.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Seems like a huge stretch
Is there anything but the chorus that you think is the voice of God?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
nope
but it was a college english paper and I was an biochem and environmental science major, so I amused myself by deliberately taking out-there interpretations. I mean, if you’re going to do a paper on a They Might Be Giants song, you have to do something unexpected with it…
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
it doesn't have to be God anyway
just the idea that anyone whose job it is to take care of others all the time still needs looking after themselves…
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Hill took a walk....
I’m getting the sound going off on my tv for a moment every now and then….makes it sound like Jamie and Tabler are swearing at the Jays….
nice inning fellas
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
indians fan here. sounds like you guys are going through the same kind of offense related despair that hit cleveland for most of april. with your pitching, it’s just a matter of time before the wins start picking up. here’s hoping that starts tomorrow! meanwhile, let’s hope for a fun nightcap.
well, here’s hoping. my roommate in college was a jays fan – i’d like to see them upset the balance of power in the east.
out of curiousity
what was your take (and that of indians fans in general) on John MacDonald when he was with Cleveland?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
big fan favorite, great glove, etc. he’s missed, but tom mastny has been more than decent in return, though he’s now the 7th man in a 6-man bullpen.
thanks,
that’s pretty much exactly the situation in Toronto. He gets more love for a diving stop than Wells does for a homer. As a former glove specialist myself, I really appreciate the love he gets
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
a good game would be nice
but I’d settle for just a run or two at this point, sad as that is…
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
oh no no no
one would think that we could ill afford to give them an early lead here
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
well
he was going for his first shutout
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
it was worth a shot though
with the big lead, no?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
That meeting sucked
45 minutes wasted. Hey, Hill spoiled my perfect game prediction.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Story of the season
Overbay hits one hard for a lineout.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
months from now
we’ll still be talking about his lineout, how exciting it was….
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Lyle hits it hard
but right at SS
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Zaun with an infield single
Too bad you can’t hit an infield home run.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Why is Velandia in?
He’s a righty who only hits righties.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
and Scutaro
can actually somewhat hit lefties
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
to top if off
Marcum is the least likely Jays’ starter to need the defensive help at SS
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Marcum makes the Indians look like us
That Sizemore at-bat was worth the price of admission. Way to get back on track after that long 2nd inning. Please score runs!
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
5 pitch inning
with a strikeout.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Rios, take some damn pitches!
And stop pulling into double plays!
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
batting is kinda pointless for us at this stage, isn't it?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
They might make multiple errors in one inning.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Uh oh, Martinez doubled.
Game over.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Hey, he got out of it
I guess I lose points for calling ‘game over’ too soon.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I think we've forfeit all our points
by watching the game in the first place
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
hey
Mench got on
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
RISP time!
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I hate to say it
but I actually called that triple play
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
And that's the problem with the hit and run
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
well
they tried something and it didn’t work, I guess.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Because Overbay hasn't hit lefties well this season?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
very true
no one would deny its not a good percentages play. It’s just a case of grasping at straws in desperation
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Well not doing enough didn't work
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
it usually doesn't
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Marcum
with another good inning
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
this would be an acceptable time to hit-and-run
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
With 2 outs and a right handed bat
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
sure
Hill has been struggling at the plate and pressing too much, I like the idea of hitting-and-running just to let him ease up and worry about making contact
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Also, why bother gettnig him on base
when Rios is just going to ground into a double play anyways.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
that was so dumb
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
after 19 at-bats
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Yeah I think so....I think the only way to deal with Lind is to tell him he's getting 400 at bats and stick to it....then see where we are....
but everyone is worried about thier jobs
Well, my thought was that it was so he could find his stroke
without the pressure of trying to be the savior of the lineup.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
right, that is a nice thought
but no one in Lind’s situation would take it that way. The only way to take it is that the organization has no faith in you.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Yeah I think it told Lind 'we have no faith in you' and 'if we can you up again you better go 4 for 4 first day.
he’s up and Stewart goes 3 for 4 one game and Lind’s down. Shows they don’t have a clue.
Unfotunately at some point Marcum's going to be out of this game
Probably next inning.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
why do you think we called up Benitez?
He only threw one inning at Syracuse since the hamstring injury, right? seems like League could’ve been a lot more help. Or if not him, someone else.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Good thing we added Mench's lefty-mashing bat
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
how long until Gibbons gets canned, do you think?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
When does this game end?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
that's about what I'm thinking too
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Of course, who do you replace him with?
Butterfield? Or do you clean house? And where are you going to find replacements in the middle of a road trip?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I'm guessing the keep Butterfield
They like him enough that they’re putting up with Pevey, who’s no third-base coach, just to have Butterfield on the bench. I suppose Whitt could finish up the road trip too. In the long-term, I like the idea of Bobby Valentine, but I’m not sure why he would leave Japan, though I think he can opt out of his contract if a major-league team offers him a job.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
But what's Butterfield going to be able to do as the manager
that he can’t do as the bench coach?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
But anything he could do as the manager
he could already advise Gibby to do, and anything he could do to motivate the players, he’s already in position to do.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
well I don't think it really matters much to be honest
if they make a move, I think it’s just to send the message that folks are accountable if the team isn’t performing, to shake things up a bit.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Everyone but the players
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Touché
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Maybe we could get DePodesta from the Padres
Because getting former Moneyballers worked so well last time.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
heh
yeah, something tells me the next GM is going to be Richard Griffin-approved
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Because Griffin couldn't possibly hate any other GM
as much as he hates JP?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
well, there's that
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
true
he talked like one at first, but he’s more in the super-scout mold I think
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Well he was the scouting director for Beane, wasn't he?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
yep
and I think came up as a plain old no-frills scout
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Well he didn't come up as a stats guy
Phys Ed degree, I think.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I'm a little confused why Zaun was in this game
when he hasn’t been good against lefties, and Barajas played the first, but Barajas got on base twice against Carmona.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
it is counterintuitive
maybe Gibbons sees Barajas as a better defensive catcher, and he wanted A.J., who’s been struggling, to have the benefit of that?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
He could have had Burnett start the second game
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
he could have
but I’m guessing that didn’t ever occur to him
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
another great start for Marcum
at 103 pitches, he’s probably done, no?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
If he's not
then Gibby is trying to get fired.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
So, the hard luck no decision for Marcum?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
it would be pretty impressive
in an antimatter sort of way if we managed to get 1 run in a 4-game series
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
I like that we used Scutaro as DH
so we can’t pinch-hit for Velandia unless we want Inglett at short. Brilliant thinking
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Who would we have pinch hit with?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
with 2 outs
whoever is most likely to hit a homer, no?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Against a lefty?
Our bench is 3 lefties and Barajas.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
but Wilkerson, Stairs, or Barajas
still could jack one, no? and who says this is velandia’s last at-bat?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Then there won't necessarily be 2 outs when it matters.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I don't follow
I would still want to pinch-hit for Velandia, probably more so, if there were less than 2 out
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Ugh... Marcum still out there
At least he got a quick first out
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
what is the point of this
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Leaving Marcum out there?
Or playing more innings?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
well I was referring to leaving marcum in
but you make a compelling point on the latter
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Bunt
Hill has beat them out in the past.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
he got the bunt down
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Stew draws the leadoff walk
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Popped up a bit much for my taste
If Lee dove for it, double play.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
sigh
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Story of the season
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
up to GJE
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
we are the masters of
the hit with RISP that doesn’t score a run
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
How much cash do you think JP traded for him?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Do you release him still?
He made solid contact.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
in an alternate universe
Rios and Mench have RBI hits, Ryan just saved the game, and Schroediger’s Cat is not dead
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Don't forget Overbay
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
and he didn't take two friends with him.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
right, of course...
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
I mean, is there any conceivable way we do not lose the game this inning
is that even within the realm of possibility?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Is the Beej pitching?
Do I get to pretend I captioned a picture of Kavok from the Star Trek Video Board Game with “Experience Beej”?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Ryan gets Cabrera
good stuff there
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
and Jhnonny
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
How often do you see catcher interference and a unassisted triple play in the same game?
may have never happened before
Don't want to double him off?
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
cmon Lyle
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Betancourt
has clearly studied at the Trachsel school
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
It's a 6 year program there.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
would that have been a double play if it hadn't hit Betancourt?
cuz Stairs was running, which would’ve drawn the fielders to the bag? did we just get a….break?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Depends if Betancourt would have fielded it
and how big a jump Stairs got.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
but it's possible that something actually worked out for us
and that’s good enough for me
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Zaun bunts Lyle and Stairs over
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
I might have to bail soon
for the weekly Magic draft, so I hope something happens soon.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Wilkerson pinch-hitting
but intentionally walked
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Wilkerson pinch hitting
He got it in the air last game.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
up to Stew
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Stew
gets Stairs in!
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
cmon Hill!
yeah yeah yeah!
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Great, I can go.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
I'm telling you
the universe shifted in that one at-bat.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
all it took was that one bounce to go our way
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
good question
Downs, I’d guess, with a righty ready, but which one?
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
although B.J. only threw 7 pitches...
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
I'll forsake baseball and just follow MLS
but not really
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
an easy transition for me
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
no drama Downs!
no walks
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
least he's throwing strikes
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
2 to go!
nice one Snakeface!
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
feel free
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
my mom reads the site, so I don't
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
now if Downs can just get Francisco
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
like line drives to wanton Cleveland boys are we Jays to the baseball Gods
they pluck us out of the air for sport
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
man that was truly terrible
I blame the excessive drinking the Jays cause
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Downs gets it done
and the losing streak is over…
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
hard to believe we're only 4 below .500
and will actually gain 1/2 game on Boston and NY today
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
yep
Downs is really more of an honourable mention, since he pitched well but it wasn’t really a high enough leverage situation with the 3-run lead. The other 4 are definites.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
would you believe
Stew’s first JotD? Not a good sign, given that the season is almost a quarter over…
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
we need to get back to .500
I’m running out of They Might Be Giants songs
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
Hopeless Bleak Despair
It was always there.
Exquisite Dead Guy and Why Must I Be Sad are also available.
"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"
Has never gotten bad enough
for Hopeless Bleak Despair, at least, not yet.
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
I think he earned it
particularly given his quality performance in this afternoon’s game
"Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our closed rooms... The game of ball is glorious." - Walt Whitman
