    I still can't hear the Mexican Hat Dance at games without mentally adding, "NORM SUCKS", where you're supposed to clap.

    Good save. I was about to parody you mercilessly.

    The Danes seem to be fools over that kind of thing.

    Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. So you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?
  5. ashbury
    Careful....
  6. ashbury
    Yes. No.

    You're about to find out. And get the blame if anything bad happens. What. So. Ever.

    +1 Internets to you for this find.

    Or if Marney knew any ... no, nononono, no.

    Chief still says it better. "Yes."

    When did I sta-...oh, I get it.

    I don't like the Fed overnight rate at 0.0% anymore. Please see what you (collectively) can do
  13. ashbury
    Good call as well.

    Please continue the anti-jinxing, Nostradamus.

    I hope your kid doesn't freeze yours either. / 'Cause, that's how pals roll, right?

    I'll stand up as a past skeptic on EE's defense. (Also his offense, different subject.) I don't actually get to watch many games uninterrupted, so my skepticism was based mostly on Small Sample Size: it seemed that anytime I was actually paying attention, he was committing an error or bobble or flub (oh MY!). So-so range, mediocre reliability, just didn't add up to a starter in my view. And I can't say that I've seen enough during his present tenure as starter to form any opinion one way or the other. But I'm definitely coming around on his durability on offense, and I guess I'll just have to admit to a biased sample on defense, and go ahead and elevate him in my mind from "Starter on a bad team, valued Utility man on a World Series team" to something better. Like, maybe, Starter.

    RBI, both singular and plural. RunS Batted In already is implied and contains the necessary plural. I always give mental credit to broadcasters who are careful with this. Kavan's was a good post, but very jarring to read, with so many.

    Good thing those 84 games didn't come during one of those periods. We would have failed to even notice. / Yeah, STN, another lame attempt at sarcastic humor. So it goes...

    You enjoyed the Hanging Chads controversy, and others, in Florida in the 2000 election, I trust? Because that would have been replicated on a national scale. Indeed several recent presidential elections have been close enough that a national recount likely would have happened. Closeness looks like the trend going forward, as well. I kind of appreciate the EC as a partial buffer for this nonsense.

    Bobby Heenan isn't going to take kindly to this trademark infringement. http://johnnygoodtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/bobbyheenan_display_image.jpg

    For the record, I'm running on a laptop under Wiindows 8 point mumble mumble. Approximately. So it's not just a mobile device issue.

    Had a great experience many years ago at a 7th game of the AAA championships (Chipper Jones's final game as a minor leaguer), just happening to be in Charlotte that evening, walking up to the ticket office half an hour before game time and buying the best seats possible right behind home plate, for something like $7. Can't be beat. Q: What time is the playoff game tonight? A: What time can you be here?

    They seemed happy with this play.

    Since yesterday evening, I've been intermittently reaching an error page when I click the "Mark this forum as read" link at the top of a forum page. Sometimes but not always. Never had the slightest problem with the feature before. Any ideas?

    What you usually see in a true freshman is that he'll make some passes that leave you drooling for more, but then he undoes it by trying to force passes that worked for him in high school but not against this new level of competition - where (for example) everyone is now as tall as him and he can't see the LB who is licking his chops for a chance to step in front of a short and seemingly safe pass. A couple of pick-sixes will ruin your whole game. Best IMO to let him take full advantage of the additional year of coaching and physical growth.
