They've got some pretty good chokes going on over here. http://community.rotohog.com/columnists/choke-or-not-choke-question Let's see what else peeps can come up with!! I think there was a game several seasons back where the Mavs choked away like a 27 point lead against the Lakers during the regular season!!

Discussed much less was Hansen’s ordeal with sleep apnea, which apparently caused him to snore, toss and turn, and look perpetually stoned. According to reports, that condition has now been rectified, although Hansen still looks like someone who’d bogart the spleef (like he did as Pickford in “Dazed and Confused”).

9. “Declare himself a polygamist and join that group in Texas, where sex with 15-year-olds is accepted.”

7. “Go on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ because if this show has proven anything, it’s that Americans are willing to forgive anyone who makes an ass of themselves.”

Their joy, however, was short-lived, because Farnsworth appealed the penalty, which was to start Saturday night against Baltimore. He will be eligible to pitch until a hearing is held.

For every pinch-hit home run he pulls out of his hat (and really, he looked terrible swinging at the first two pitches) there seems to be three pop ups and three inning-ending double plays. I mean, despite last night's heroics, he's still The Hitter Most Safe for a Bathroom Break (having replaced Coco Crisp while in Japan).

Westbrook was pitching decently, Betancourt was waiting in the wings, and the Red Sox needed to hold the Tribe down with Julian Tavarez, who, quite honestly, inspires as much confidence as Hubert H. Humphrey these days.

Placido Polanco wonders where this pose was yesterday.
If you’d asked Placido Polanco to describe the play that would end his record-setting errorless streak, it’s safe to say the Tigers’ second baseman wouldn’t have outlined a situation where a hustling Manny Ramirez forced him to rush a relay throw to third base, hoping to prevent a triple.
