A month ago the Omaha Stormchasers managed seven runs against Chi Chi Gonzalez. Tonight the Royals have none. http://t.co/FeTcnPfOMe

I had to take a math class prior to college algebra there in the spring since I didn't take a math class at all in the fall. Wound up with a Filipino professor who could hardly speak English.

So here I am back home taking classes at the local community college.

I'm pretty sure you know that I meant that we shouldn't expect them to win consistently until they learn how to have a quality AB. The only guy worth a crap has been Moose.

Can't believe we're going to get shutout at home against Chi Chi Rodriguez. Is he going to do a sword dance on the mound afterward?

Community college in the summer is where I took mine. Best decision on that one. Made me realize community college is probably the smartest way most students should go through first.

Gonzalez is pitching a hell of a game. Look at his control this late in the game. I'll give credit when it's due.

I hope that represents rock bottom and we bounce back tomorrow

And we beat the Cy Young winner this week. That's baseball for you.

Still 8 games above .500 and 3rd best record in the AL. Not worried at all.
