particle beam cannon

Used on ships from gunships to dreadnoughts, particle beam cannons are some of the most effective weapons developed. Smaller ships like gunships and corvettes have few anti-capital cannons, and more anti-fighter cannons. Larger ships employ multiple anti-capital cannons, which make for spectacular ship battles.

The particle beam cannon was only seen in the Lucifer in FreeSpace.

Red Sox-Yankees Rivalry

Greatest rivalry in the history of professional sports. Most years the rivalry ends as somewhat of a draw. This year, the Red Sox have the better team (wait, they usually have the better team every year) and have already taken six out of seven games from the Yankees (see shit). Does not bode well for the Bronx Bombers.

You see the Yankees just bought up every good player they could?

Doesn't matter, since the Sox have the best pitching in baseball.
