1st real post from the 3rd guy

May 11, 2008

i was watching the red sox game tonight and i was appalled by the way wakefield pitched. I love him to death, but when he throws 1/3 fastballs he’s not doing his job. I dont care if he doesn’t throw a strike for 4 innings, his job is to throw a knuckle ball! and when he doesn’t throw them for strikes that’s the risk of throwing a knuckler! he had to resort to throwing a 61 mph CURVEBALL! Coming off an 8 inning 0 run performance vs. Detroit i am immensely disappointed with Wakefield tonight.

this that and the other guy courteously disagrees with these statements posted so boldly by the overly smart gya. fantasy series do not stop until people stop reading them so u cannot possibly exclude series like harry potter, and lord of the rings (thats a joke though no offensive statement). also im still holding my breath with pendragon, the books have been in a steady decline since about half way through book 6, so far there have been: less action, more useless monologues, less insight into the inner workings of the territories (actually only in the 8th) no comic relief, no underlying metaphors, and finally the thing ive hated from the beginning of the series… what can saint dane not do?! seriously he has the lamest powers that apear out of no where, its like ok we are gonna win. oh wait, the bad guy found a loophole that allowed him to gain a power that directly negates our master plan. o well now a 3 page metaphor and back to square one
