It's not looking good

The Red Sox lost again last night, getting beat by the Astros 6-2.

They are now a distant six and a half games out of the wildcard with only twenty nine games left to play in the season.

Today's final game against the Astros started at 4:10. As I post this, they are in the 2^nd inning and the score is 0-0. Hopefully the Red Sox avoid the sweep and win this game.

Tomorrow they are on an off-day while they head to the Missouri side of Kansas City where they will start a three-game series against the Royals on Friday.

And speaking of baseball, this line from this story about the Yankees tells me everything I need to know about the Yankees:

Harrison Bader was in the Yankees’ lunch room on Tuesday afternoon at Comerica Park when he saw his name flash across the bottom of the screen. New York had placed him on waivers.

Talk about a shitty way to find out you've just been fired. They didn't even have the decency to tell him to his face.

My insomnia is kicking my ass so I'm glad the game started at 4:00.

While I watch the rest of this game and then probably fall asleep on the couch, you should. check these out:

• I wonder if his vice president was named Ahmed Snare Drum.



• Great. Just great. We're the new Uganda.



• They got some mighty strong wasps in Israel.



• Why does she need a mental health evaluation? Since when is being an asshole considered a mental disease?



• Attention Alanis Morissette: This is ironic.



• Oh Canada.
