Yu Darvish Wins First Start. From the Seattle Times: “[T]he Mariners had Yu Darvish on the ropes in the very first inning like Ivan Drago about to move in for the kill on Apollo Creed. Darvish had thrown 38 pitches to get just one out, had the bases loaded behind him and four runs already in. And what do the Mariners do? Go up hacking away and let Darvish off the hook five pitches later.” That first inning for Darvish looked horrible, but then he settled down. And the Rangers put up 11 runs to the Mariners’ 5.
Ed Young Brings a Live Lion to Church. You remember Ed Young. He’s the pastor of Fellowship Church in Grapevine, the guy who made headlines when he encouraged married couples to have sex every day for a week. He’s doing it again. Well, he’s not doing it. I mean that he’s making headlines again. This time it’s for bringing a live lamb and lion onstage for a sermon. The Fellow Church website used this caption for a photo of Young: “Pastor Ed bringing the message of Easter. Jesus is a lion-like lamb and a lamb-like lion!” I prefer to think of Jesus as being more of a scorpion-like giraffe!
