This for my justices slingin' thangs, rib breakin' kings / Truck, necklace, robe, gavel and things / For the solicitors seein' them dissents spin and grin / That robe with the lace trim that win.

I'm not sure I've ever had a team win a playoff series so non chalantly. There wasn't even any dramatic games. Ho hum, next.

As bad as Rondon has been I can't believe they didn't put him on the roster over Harris

Or at least Joe Smith
