Sports Morning
Base10 would like to formally complain to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club that Wimbledon just starts too damn early. Really. What's worse, their website doesn't provide schedules for the matches. C'est la vie. Anyway, Base10's favorite heartthrob tennis player, Maria Sharapova, advanced to the third round today by handily dispatching Ashley Harkleroad in the wee hours of EST.

Not such good news for the Mets though. Pedro was awful and the Mets lost an embarrassing 10-2 to the Bosox. Before I go into Pedro's performance, let me just say that Met fans shouldn't panic here. There had to come a time when the Mets would lose a road series. It shouldn't come as a surprise that this happened against one of the hottest team in the AL.

That being said, Pedro's recent performances are worrisome. Is it a nagging injury such as his toe? What's worse, could it be that age is finally catching up with him? Time will tell, but his accuracy is clearly changed.

Finally, in World Cup news, it has been reported that English soccer fans are drinking Germany dry. You know, if Base10 could live his life over, he'd live over a bar and grill.
