The "Get a Brain Morans" Guy Opens a Restaurant

ST. LOUIS, MO -- St. Louis resident Brian Morans recognized his favorite team today by opening a bar in honor of the Cardinals.
Morans, now notorious after he was caught on film with a sign bearing his own name misspelled, has parlayed his notoriety into a money-making eating establishment.
“I thought if a guy like Albert Pujols could do it, it can't be that hard,” said Morans.
Moran's Bar and Grill will feature some special Cardinals-themed dishes for the series against Cincinnati. “Timo's Toasted Ravioli of Unrealized Expectations” and “Jeff Suppan's Beer to Cry Into” are likely to be crowd favorites.
When asked why the entree names were so pessimistic, Morans shrugged. “Even I can see where this series is headed.”
Can Pickles make it three fly balls to center in a row?
Can Suppan hit a ball out of the infield so he can?
Nope, strike three called.
Suppan must get hitting lessons from Womack.
At least you don’t have to listen to Al Hrabosky. Good god is he obnoxious.
Hey Proxy. That joke’s getting less relevant all the time.
And something about casting stones about aging center fielders…
Oooooh. Nine home runs!!
Gotta give it to Junior… He’s obviously never been on ‘roids. His trips to the DL would be very short if that was the case.
That said, nice stroke to the deepest part of the ballpark.
JUNIOR!
If you couldn’t tell it from the way the ball came off the bat, you could from the way he strutted his way out of the box.
43 different ballparks have witness Griffey homers. They’ll have to build new ones for him to increase that total.
NHL Update: Edmonton leading, 2-0, in second period
And here, the Reds lead it 3-2 thanks to a Griffey bomb! Tuch ’em all, Ken Griffey!

*ahem*
First basemens.
Jr. was very nice to the fan who gave him back his #500. And we’re being told all about it. Then all about Bonds. Sigh.
Bonds? Watch your language, young lady. 😉
Ha ha. Eckstein’s out.
It’s now 3-0 Edmonton
Actually, 3-1.
OK, 3-1. What I’m looking at still shows 3-0 at 3:37 of the second period
You must have a faster feed, or a TV on
There it is, 3-1, end of second period
Eckstein leads the NL in multi-hit games, I believe.
Eckstein can kiss my ass. He’s about the right height for it.
Dude, somebody teach Suppan to speed it up. It’s taking forever for him to allow runs!
Were both of the Cardinal runs in the first earned?
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
What do you bet Encarnacion gets a freaking curtain call?
Stare at it a little longer, Encarnacion. I’ll take it though!
Hey look, the good Encarnacion showed up to play today… not [i]JuanTino[/i]!
Ah, crap.
Baltimore 4, Toronto 0 (Final)
Whoa! Cubs leading Houston, 8-0 in the seventh.
Time to get Claussen out of there.
What’s up with the Cubs lately, man? Belly, did your guys inspire them or something?
They’ve got one unearned run charged to Claussen right now
First run earned, second run unearned on Aurilia’s error
I guess. Suddenly they think they’re good. But by the end of the week, they’ll remember they’re the Cubs and start sucking again.
Hope Phillips gets on. Ross is about due for another one of his upper-deck shots.
McCracken in the on-deck circle.
I [b]hate[/b] saying that.
Have the Pirates remembered that they’re the Pirates yet? They were beating the crap out of the Brewers for a while there.
By the way, I’ll plug this now for people later. At the [url=http://www.sportscartel.com/lounge/]Sports Lounge Forums[/url], we’ve got a forum where each registered user can place bets on sporting events with “vCash,” which, according to Yogi, is “just as good as money.”
There are honest-to-goodness prizes offered at the end of each month for the member with the most vCash.
And, for the record, I bet against the Cardinals and said that the Reds would win 2 of 3 in this series. I hope to be proven wrong.
Rick White Flag? Have we given up already?
Tampa Bay 4, Angels 0 (Final)
Pirates lead the Rockies, 2-0 in the fourth, RHM
He brings White and his 6.75 ERA into a one-run game? Yeah, I guess we are giving up already. 🙁
I’m really beginning to wonder about Jerry Narron. He’s starting to remind me too much of Bob Boone.
Only with Yadi running could he have gotten that out.
Comment ads, Proxy? Honestly. I hope you’re at least promoting RHM over at your forum dealy.
So, Chris Welsh had to send a postcard to the Yankees to get them to tell him that they really didn’t want him after all? Ouch.
Unlike every other time he speaks, Al actually provided some interesting information. How can every player on an entire team end a game with the same batting average as they started?
Is that what they said? I heard George say “smiling side” of the score and the violent shudders it caused me erased my short term memory.
You gotta come over and promote yourself!
Hmmm…all walks?
Wait, then the inning would never end. Sort of like when White pitches.
Dammit.
Two of Chris Duncan’s three homeruns have come against the Reds.
White felt the need to maintain his ERA.
Reds’ homerun greatness is contagious. Unfortunately.
Good strategy – Walk Miles, get LaRussa to pinch-hit for Suppan, then hope he brings in Looper so we can hand him his ass. 🙂

Well, if only you’d come over and play with us. We could unite in our hatred of all things baby, bear and baby bear.
KC2HMZ, ya might wanna [url=http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/team/player.jsp?player_id=131702]check the stats.[/url]
Oh, he’s brought in Hancock, this ought to be interesting…
