  1. Careful... Ya might end up getting press ganged... which is kinda like a draft of a different sort, i guess.
  2. We're allowed a second draft? Now they tell me...
  3. Game thread of a thousand posts... not quite as many as Arabian Nights, but i think we can pull it off. Alas i don't know anything about the above mode of death, nor the details of its execution. I vaguely have the impression that paper (also from that area originally) was somehow involved. And lemon juice, maybe?. I kinda imagine if the actual number is important, and it is not just a rough estimate, that they perhaps do it fund raising style, with a grand display stating the current cut level and the target goal. Not that i wish to give NPR any ideas...
  4. Positional flexibility. RB should be proud.
  5. 9! is a kinda large number, last time i checked. But yup. We can come back. The trick of course to scoring many runs is just not to get out.
  6. Danny Valencia? Now that's a name i have not heard in a long time...
  7. Pssst. Pipe down. The game has started...
  8. Oh... Sorry. I should have been more specific. *My softball* game has been called due to rain. My 0-fer start to the season (hereafter referred to as my slump) shall remain intact.
  9. Hot dogs are all good, and everything sounds tasty. I get a perverse joy from how runny peanutbutter gets on a hot dog. My dad didn't like hot dogs. Nor did he like mustard. Bu apparently one day he was particularly hungry and tried them together, and lo and behold, they were good together. So hopefully i learned from his example to have what is commonly termed "an open mind."
  10. College sports team work-out one Saturday morning was a relay race up the tallest building on campus. Only time going up counted in race, so we could take our time going down. I being a hiker at heart finished earlier than most. After my final ascention, i pushed the button for the elvator at the top with no one else around waiting. I then had a change of heart, decided i wanted to go down stairs to warm down as it were, pushed the button on that floor, had a change of heart, went down another floor, and pushed the button. You might notice a patten, and so did i, repeatig it until i got to the second floor which was a sort of lobby with someone working a front desk. Feeling a wee bit awkward, i decided this was the time to actually wait for the elevator. It came, and i got in an empty elevator and decended to the basement. The door opened in the basement and i got off to the jocular welcome of my teammates who kindly explained to me that they had all piled in after finishing their race at the top, and then rode the elevator down, which proceeded to open at every floor until about the 4th, where apparently another of the two elevators heeded my summons more quickly. I think undue credit was given to me at that point for cleverness.
  11. Game called on account of rain. No breakin out of my slump today...
  12. Oh yeah... I got an elevator story to share if anyone wants to hear it... er read it, i mean.
  13. 0 for 7 or so. Have yet to get a hit. Closest i come so far was the first swing where the 3rd baseman had to dive for it. Scored a run pinchrunning though. And it might be fewer at bats than i recall as one pop fly might have counted as a sac fly. I am making Buxton's early season woes look good...
  14. Evidentally you have never tried a Twinkie Wiener Sandwich... ("Tell him about the Twinkie") https://youtube.com/watch?v=Z-_FO9p8Xdg
  15. Hope Edward McMichael also makes it to Green Bay. Tuesday softball game is looking iffy due to local weather...
  16. Wait... I know this one... Delicious.
  17. So... what if i hope for too much garlic?
  18. Finally took a moment to google it. I am particularly fond of the Spike Jones rendition...
  19. I think i'd settle for not getting knocked into orbit in the first place...
  20. Wait... I just noticed the Angels have not only more losses, but also more wins than the Twins? I am surprised... They must have played more games, i guess.
  21. That means... Are they almost the same person?
  22. Ah. That. They correspond to number of bases reached. The lack of which implied he had not gotten to first...
