You know who else sucked for a while? Romans. They were all like Numitor this, Vestal Virgins that, and then Lucius Postumius Megellus came along and commanded the siege of Agrigentum, and the rest is history. So the lesson is don't belittle Tampa Bay, because should they ascend to power they will almost certainly exact their revenge by enslaving you and having sex with your women.
LET'S GO MARINERS!!

So the womenfolk are safe for one more day
if Bedard just plain deals and the bullpen doesn't suck?
by Two Rs and Two Ls on Apr 8, 2008 1:31 PM PDT reply actions
I think I could die a happy man
If Tampa Bay started kicking New York and Boston's asses, denying at least one of them a playoff spot every year.. Short of the M's winning the World Series, there is nothing I would want more from baseball.
And they were real warriors
No trucks, bitches
And 100 pound Gladius's
And those shields must've been like 300 lbs too
And it was uphill...
Both ways.
Fun Fact: Angels third baseman Chone Figgins' first name is actually pronounced "Shawn." And his last name is actually pronounced "Weinberg" (it's a silent "Figgins").
Good luck tonight folks
Hopefully Garza can match Bedard bullet for bullet.

I've got five bucks
that Squinty throws Potatoes onto the mound today.
Nah
See, now he's going to use RRS 8 days in a row until he starts giving games away, THEN he'll go back to potatoes.
Yeah, he should use RRS now
I think Hyphen learned his lesson - now he'll stay awake during those seventh innings.
Parthia
and the Sox are, I dunno, someone annoying
by Jeff Sullivan on Apr 8, 2008 1:44 PM PDT up reply actions
No,
can't be Parthia. They weren't powerful until much later.
Like the way the Rays will be the Emperor Trajan to the Yankees Parthian dynasty some day. But not today.
You're jumping around in time, Sullivan.
btw, for classical analogies used in a baseball context, this blog wins 9,000 internets....
ok, what about
Red Sox = Nero. enjoyed for a brief time then corrupted by power
Yankees = Tigellinus. evil, rich
Orioles = Acte. used to be relevant, now ignored.
Blue Jays = Poppara. should be more influential but aren't.
Rays = Petronius? I don't know. Losing steam here.
Hmmm.
I like what you did there. This is sticking purely with nations -
Red Sox = Carthage, proud tradition, came to dominate Med trade when the greeks were weaker
Yankees = Greece/Hellenic empire(s). Duh.
Orioles = Pontus/Pontic Kingdoms. Pretty irrelevant, then killed every mutherfucker in the room, then got killed.
Blue Jays = Eburones or the Germans of the Teutoburg Forest. Yeah, you can wipe out a legion and everyone thinks it's your 'time' but in the end, you're not built to win wars.
Rays = Rome, per the words of our leader.

I think the analogy here would be
to Hannibal Gisco.
The question is whether the Red Sox are Hannibal (the famous one).
Then there's the question of whether THIS year's Rays are L. Postumius Megellus or A. Quintus Sulpicius. They're a rising power, but are they good enough to actually win? Clearly, revenge will be theirs in time. But in 2008?

who seem dedicated lately to pumping money into the school. In the last 6 years I think the EE, Chem E/Enviromental E and maybe one other school all got named. Plus the Engineering school as a whole and the whole Kline Institute thing.

So to get force you need acceleration and to convert from pounds to kg
assuming a throw of 3 Gs = 9.8*3 m/s^2 over a distance of iono, say 20 meters, you end up with
some momentum transfer that might hurt.
