Okay, so back to sports.

I've been on Twitter this morning quite a bit. Folks are speculating the Pirates should target one of Lowrie or Scutaro and one of Greinke or Hamels ina trade.

I'd love to have Lowrie.

After 16 days on the road, I had to shock the pool last night so I told it Greinke didn't make the All-Star team

Lowrie's not inflated. He's got legitimate pedigree. I've wanted the Pirates to target him for years.

Tigers are rumored to be interested in Lowrie as well. He would probably be moved to second base.

IT'S ALMOST TIME.

if you are talking about Brett Lawrie, why on earth would the BlueJays get rid of him?
good Canadian kid, he's as core as it gets on that club.

if not, then carry on.
