       I'm also feeling bad for the player.  He's gotta feel like crap
       too.

       The team is from the town of Liberal, Kansas.
       Read the many heartfelt comments.   And then consider the yahoo
       who couldn't resist sniping at the name "Liberal".  There's a
       time and place for everything but I can't recall anything more
       objectionable than what this guy said.

       I think they deleted it, some people are just stupid.  When
       Keith Law tweeted it out he described it as Liberal boy and I
       was wondering why he would describe him that way.  140
       characters can be bad sometimes.

       Maybe they should have just described him as a Seward County boy
       instead.  Of course, there'd probably still be Twitter
       complaints from people who hate Alaska.

       Liberal, KS boy or Kansas boy would have worked.  I certainly
       didn't keep me from clicking on the link.

       Phillies are 12-3 after all-star break.
       Takeaway:  even bad teams get hot and good teams get cold.  162
       game season.

       The Braves fell down 6-0 against the Giants earlier tonight, but
       now it's 6-5 in the bottom of the 7th.  Go Braves.
