Seems to me we've had this conversation before, where I mentioned you're my hero.

Must be summer re-run season.

Considering I've seen it 100 times, that's like...um...let's see...most of my life I've lost?

I've seen you in a Speedo in the back of a police car.

I'm hanging up on this conversation before I lose any more time off my life...

Uh, in case you didn't notice, you left the "over" part off the end of your post.

Au contraire......

Did you know that the Chinese once made a movie in homage to me?

It was titled Enter The Draggin'.

It's true, it's true......

For all of us sox fans...
their magic number is 67 as of the all-star break (i.e. any combo of sox wins and nyy losses) to clinch the AL east. they have 75 games left, 15 of which are against Tampa Bay. The Sox are 108-48 all time vs. TB (win % of .692). Stats show they'll win ~10 of the 15 vs TB; with that said, their magic # is 57 with 65 games left. What does this mean?
the AL east race is O-V-E-R!!!

GO SOX!

A true Sox fan would know better than to jinx it.

more stats for sox fans...

(sox have 75 games left, nyy has 77 left) if the sox win 10 of 15 vs TB and only go 32-28 the other 60 games, nyy would need to go 53-24 (29 games over .500) the 2nd half of the season (basically win almost 70% of their games).

obviously i'll be more comfortable 2 months from now when they still have a 10 game lead, but still....

Unfortunately, in your case all the parts that are draggin' are above the waist...

Ouch.

Ok, that one stung a little.

But I've got 99 years of callouses, so it doesn't hurt quite as bad as it could have.

I read about that movie. However, I remember the "draggin" part to be your backside, not the front.
