"The search for perfection is a funny thing, at least as I've been told It drives you nuts, it makes you curse and eats away at your soul Sometimes better ain't better, sometimes justice just ain't served Sometimes legend isn't laid where it's most deserved." "But humanity is flawed as the losers will attest We're drawn to tragic stories, the ones that suit us best But for 12 innings on that fateful day, old Harvey was a God A perfect game if nothing else because perfection's always flawed" http://www.mediafire.com/file/vkymdmnaw ... haddix.mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/file/z3guhdt2z ... ojfull.zip |

I guess McCaughey is gonna have to update his song. He needs Buehrle and Braden in there. But I don't think you can "add Galarraga to the list". An umpire's mistake is one of the things that makes pitching a perfecto so difficult. It isn't just the player's that get tight. Cue Hawk talking some crazy shit about greased tees. |

Good call on the 5th member of REM, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWOpBwwpVfA But...you forgot Roy Halladay's perfect game! \  I think the cover of McCaughey's Minus 5's 'Down with Wilco' was photographed about 20 feet South of Division on the West side of Damen:  just North of the Rainbo. |

I agree. It's almost better that he was robbed of a perfecto by piss-poor umpiring than to be lost among the surfeit of perfect games this season. Plus, dude handled it way cooler than, say, Roger Clemens would have handled it. |
