PJ Versus the Pitcher

There are many highs and lows in life and, as PJ learned this week, they seem to come in pairs. For instance, finding out that you get to write a book with an ace MLB pitcher: high. Having the publisher tell you that aforementioned ace pitcher has flaked on the book: low. Finding out that you're the 34th writer that the publisher has chosen to try to get ace pitcher to write said book: even lower! Poor PJ. Here she was thinking that this book was going to be a huge career booster when it all fell apart. Of course, the deal was unraveling from the get-go when she basically had to twist this guy's arm just to get him to sit down and work on the thing. She tried the pep talk, but like everything else, it worked for a few seconds before the guy moved onto antiques, Project Runway or fruit.

Meanwhile, the boys were busy designing shirts for their own little Project Runway competition. Watching them with the sewing machine (and calling different times to use it) was hilarious! Of course, not as hilarious as the end result. Mike's open-back design was too funny. Bobby's was the best (obviously), but he clearly cheated. And while Brendan's was a little low-tech, I would have given him the win as well. The boy needed a pick-me-up after losing his job to an iPod and seeing his ex pregnant and happily married... to a British dude. Don't look for any of them on the real Project Runway anytime soon, though.

You can catch up on episodes of My Boys at TBS.com. New episodes air Thursday nights at 9:30 pm (EST) on TBS.
