Vital signs

The Royals actually met some of the conditions we outlined yesterday, so maybe we won't have to make this a blog dedicated to a Canadian rock trio after all. Last night, the Royals did score more than seven runs and Alex Gordon hit a dinger. Also, the Royals hit a bunch of doubles, which are way better than singles. The Big Donkey hit one of those doubles. And David Dejesus hit a home run. Dejesus may be our best player. Sadly, it looks like he might out-homer Moneyball Mark Teahen.

Right now, the Royals are averaging about 3.75 runs per game. Coincidentally, the average price of gasoline in Missouri is currently right at $3.75. If the Royals can keep up with the price of gas, we predict a division championship.

So who is going to be Obama's running mate? We have narrowed the field down to Bill Richardson, Ed Rendell, Kathleen Sebelius, Jim Webb and the governor of Alaska (because she's hot). Maybe, if the Royals tank tonight, we'll do a SWOT analysis of the veep field tomorrow. Because that's the kind of stuff that brings readers back again and again.

CORRECTION: The Governor of Alaska is a Republican (not that there's anything wrong with that). But she's still kind of hot.

P.S. We once considered making an entire blog dedicated to Greinkeisms, which is why this is one of the greatest threads ever.

I told myself I wasn't going to drink last night.

Then DDJ hit the ball far so I cracked one open.

Just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in.
