Speaking of Baseball - somehow my team has climbed up to 4th in the EFD HHDYDTY Fantasy Baseball League standings, though the top 2 teams are totally running away with things right now.
  10:57pm
efd:

and my team has been sinking like a stone! This is why I kept telling people not to think the first 3 weeks were going to define the season!

(in regular baseball, too!)

Still can't believe I somehow got 10 saves this month. Seriously thought I'd still be on 0 right about now.
  11:00pm
Danne D:

(Speaking of which, Oliver is on trying to deliver the Jardineros their first save of the season)
  11:02pm
Curious:

I've always wondered if these Today's Army discs were distributed to radio stations for on-air play, or to potential recruits individually. Or both.
  11:05pm
efd:

I always assumed it was just to radio stations, but if some recruiter dropped 10 The "In" Sound LPs on me I might have been tempted to join up myself!
  11:05pm
Danne D:
