Roster of Rubbish? I know some people were down on who joined Armisen on stage…but this is ridiculous!

And Collins’ team isn’t winning. So you should understand why he might be losing it. He turns 64 later this month. He was run out of Houston and Anaheim. There is no next managing job. This is more than his last best chance. It is just plain his last chance to prove he is a good major league manager.

...For if you know whether Collins is a good manager or bad manager based on his Mets ...

Instead of facing trolls and fighting goblins, we are battling steep climbs and the fatigue that accompanies seven- to eight-hour hikes.

Let's see Dickey throw a knuckleball past Sauron. The lidless eye sees all.

I'm told that the biggest challenge in bagging Kilimanjaro is a lack of clean drinking water. Does anyone remember if Bilbo had the trots on his way to battle Smaug? I think maybe in the unabridged version.

I think "At least we have Dickey" we be a common refrain among BTF Mets fans this year.

Kilimanjaro ranks as RA's second-most impressive endeavor in his lifetime.

@5: Yes indeed. A great player to watch.

One does not simply knuckle into Mordor.

One does not simply knuckle into Mordor.

At least you know Sauron will come up swinging - one does not simply walk out of Mordor, either.

Dickey's Mets. No rings to find them. No rings to bind them.

Is he going to build a bridge between the two peaks?

The Mets should sign Julio Franco. He's gotta be eleventy-one by now, right?

If you like your fantasy epic, there are a couple of threads in the forums about the Malazan, Book of the Fallen series.
