Outsports-- Is Youppi Gay?:

Reason #2 why Youppi! might be gay:

"What straight guy would attach an exclamation point to his name? I don't know any. However, I do know at least 20 gay men who would, if it were more acceptable, legally add one."


OK, that's enough. Top of the 9th, 4-3 game, 1 out, 'Stros on 1st and 3rd - I need to go pace around for a while.

Come on Ayala.

Update: like the other night, the 'Stros have come back to tie it up. Two outs, runner in scoring position - and now they're up 5-4. Argh! I knew I shouldn't have started blogging again. And now my MLBRadio feed conked out.

Update: The Expos can't come back in the bottom of the ninth, losing 5-4 to the Astros.

Later.
