Tuffy: 
Well, hello boys and girls.   We'll be blogging lively in just a moment.   The dreaded 'technical glitch' has arrived.   Tonight, it's "New York Invades Chicago, Acts Rudely" night.   No frills tonight as the technical glitches will not allow buffonery at the moment.   Please snark amongst yourselves.   Thanks!

Personally, I think the word 'blog' should be stricken from the language. Possibly replaced by 'ooze'.

I think my family reacts roughly the same to either: "I'm blogging now... can't come help pick up the kid that fell down the stairs."   "I'm oozing... no nookie tonight."

On ESPN, Jamal Mashburn is not breaking down Nick Swisher's failed bunt.   It's a shame; he would have insight to coming up just short.

I have to give Tuffy credit, he nailed Chris Singleton well in advance. What was ESPN thinking? We need to get him in touch with David Segui for a little HGH therapy. Or it's a blood sugar issue.

Thome has an excuse me bunt swing down the third base line to flummox the shift.   Single through shame.
