[SCUDSBROTHER]

Shields blows another one for the Halos.Classic headcase.Tie game in the 8th,and he gives up a walk,2hits,and a wild pitch.Then, after the A's get the 1 run lead ,he strikes out the side.We are simply not as good defensively as this team.They killed us twice in this series on huge plays by Swisher,and Kotsay making plays on the foul line(BALLS THAT WOULD HAVE SCORED RUNS.)We,on the other hand ,have Kendrick at 1st,and he is struggling with that right now.That cost us a run today.We have to have him in the line-up though(cuz he is a good hitter.)We had 3 errors to their none.The A'S can be beat,but you have to play your best.We have now got 5 starting pitchers(Lackey,Santana,Weaver,Escobar,and Saunders) that are healthy and pitching well.You can't blame them for this f'n headcase Shields costing the team victories.These are basically playoff quality games,and he just is the choker of the bunch.Nice to see the A's leave.Be nice to see a few fastballs for a change.They are expert junk throwers.Gunna have to hit that sht in September.The A's are not without their headcases.They have 2 peas in the pod on that team(Bradley n' Payton.)Payton went totally nuts when he was hit by Shields in the knuckles(while swinging.)Hard to tell whether it hit him(for sure it hit the bat.)Simply went nuts with Black Rage(like we have seen so many times with his buddy Bradley,and for instance Carl Everett.)To me,those two are tickin' timebombs.I mean you can only go so long without those 2 melting down at the wrong time with somebody on their own team.They both have a huge chip on their shoulder,and are looking to blast off.I mean they don't need something to brew a while before they pop that top either.Ond good inside pitch from a pitcher your teammates just got hits off of? Bradley went nuts Monday Night at one obvious 3rd strike call. A headcase is a headcase.We got 1,and they sure do have 2.I mean the A's are doing well,and these guys are having their tantrums,and racist outbursts.Can you imagine if they lose 3 or 4 in a row around the 20th of September.That lid is gunna be pretty loose on those 2.I suggest ya pay the $15.00 for the month of September (to watch on MLB.Com)
