HOLD UP!!! It's Subtle, But Here's One More Natinals JOKE!!! - 

• "Morning Juice: At 100, the Nationals again are the biggest losers" - Big League Stew - MLB - Yahoo! Sports - David Brown

"The first five Dodgers batters reached base against J.D. Martin(notes), who heard mock cheers after retiring James Loney(notes) on a strikeout, and then heard 'U Can't Touch This,' by Hammer on the public address. Hooray, they have a sense of humor at Nationals Park.

"Humor is a necessity for this goofball franchise, which can't even spell its own name, and is headed for a last-place finish for the fifth time in six seasons."

Is Livan Going To Be Back In 2010?

   “Right-hander Livan Hernandez believes he has six years left in his baseball career and wants those years to be with the Nationals.”

   Fine………how about a month-to-month deal….

Maybe pay him on a per-start basis, depending on his WHIP and percentage of strikes?

…hmm, he could end up paying the team when he pitches if we structure the incentives right.

I think a lot of the problem is confidence. Mock and Bergmann have tons of talent but they look scared snyder-less when they’re in the game.

If you haven’t noticed…any profane word I want to use is now replaced by “snyder” because he is equal to or worse than each profane word.
