Speaking of,

It looks like Bay’s lack of experience in postseason and other big games is hindering him in these high-pressure situations, as many predicted.

Crisp was smart turning himself into a switch hitter.

Not that he is great at switch hitting, just that allows him to get more playing time.

Well it's not like they have a powerful lineup.

I mean they’ve got 29 combined from Manny and Bay, and 29 with Youkilis, and 23 with Ortiz, 19 with Drew, 17 with Pedroia, and 17 with Lowell. They’re obviously a small ball/run manufacturing team

If I performed at work like he did today it would go something like this:

Boss: Can you make 10 double-sided photo copies of this report and assess the future allocations for me?

Me: Sure will.

I then proceed to microwave a box of paper-clips and then use my bosses long-distance calling code to make a death threat to the white house.

That’s about what Balfour did today.

what I love about post-season baseball

is that runs are at a premium, as the pitching is so much better.

I'm watching the AFL peo Javlinas on gameday the Rays aren't playing well at all.

Gaby Hernandez is doing well so far 2 IP no hits or walks 2 SO.

And I’m also watching Cloverfield and man does it suck.

Oh, I was going to ask you:

Have you seen the ads for Max Payne? The guy doing the voice over is Marlo from The Wire, and they show his face once in one of them.

It’s cool to see those awesome actors get jobs other than 90210.

My girl was asking earlier why Upton never hustles.

I think it really is just the way he runs. Long legs or something. No matter how fast he’s running, he looks like he’s jogging.

I just hate the hype surrounding most of these quarterbacks.

No credit ever goes to the offensive line or the wide receivers who do the hard work. Then these quarterbacks get drafted and suck ass in the NFL. They are all just a product of the team around them.

by Wilder. on Oct 11, 2008 8:22 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Daniel's pretty awesome, though.

He’s a system quarterback, but he throws a great ball.

by Teej on Oct 11, 2008 8:23 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He's also 5'10"

Not going to survive in the NFL. But I do agree he throws a strong, crisp ball. Maybe he should look into pitching.

by Wilder. on Oct 11, 2008 8:24 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

There are roughly 30 men on Earth good enough to be an NFL quarterback.

Doesn’t mean some of these college kids aren’t awesome in their current environment.

by Teej on Oct 11, 2008 8:24 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I would say that number is really around 10.

And it’s not they are bad, it’s just that their teammates get no credit.

by Wilder. on Oct 11, 2008 8:27 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Linemen, definitely. But receivers usually get more than enough credit.

For example, Daniel’s best receiver is also a Heisman candidate.
