Picard is a British Frenchman.
Make sense of that.
Favor the Bold
Morrissey claims he's Irish blood, English heart.
I made sense of that, why can’t we do the same of Picard?

Is Star Trek XI going to be even worse?
I fear it could be.

I hope not.
After watching Cloverfield, I am slightly encouraged, as opposed to discouraged.
Favor the Bold
That movie was just a generic shaky-cam horror film.
Nothing special about it.
It was generic and bland.
Nothing “awesome” about it.
Special effects?
Not generic and bland, no way.
Special Effects do not make a horror film.
Go watch Ringu sometime. That movie scared the living shit out of me.
Personally, didn't really watch the film to be scared.
Favor the Bold
I don't see it as a horror film
I see it as a sci-fi thriller. For this, special effects are important, as they were in Cloverfield (in my opinion).
Yeah,
For horror, Cloverfield is a Yunitastic Failure.
Favor the Bold
Something about it
made me feel like I was right there in the middle of all the action with the characters. It really got me into it. That’s what made me like it so much, no other movie felt that realistic as this one. It’s certainly not a great movie or anything, but I really enjoyed seeing it.
Ok I actually have never seen any other "shaky-cam horror films"
So I can’t say much for that.
I have to admit that the special effects were really cool, nothing generic about that, far from it.
Good piece of entertainment.
Lots of cryptic stuff hidden. Good storytelling.
Awesome might be overkill, but it was good at generating hype and fun.
Favor the Bold
That movie was very entertaining.
As far as entertainment goes, it ranks above a lot of good movies for me, especially in a theater. It felt like a thrill ride rather than just a movie.
I'm optimistic. But scared.
Kind of like this season, back in spring training.

You know a month ago I didn't really believe this team could wind up with the worst record
Now it seems that nothing else would be more fitting.
If we don't go into "future building" mode soon, we may easily lose our spot
I imagine that other loser teams will be more eager to play for the future than we are, which would help them win lose.
I wouldn't be so sure about that
I think it would help us if Vidro, Sexson, and Wlad were still starting over the younger candidates.

How do you use it properly…(only testing your drunkness)
by andrewgolfsalot on Jun 14, 2008 9:34 PM PDT up reply actions
"feign" is, in modern English usage, pretty much an exact analogue of "fake"
So if I “feign” illness I “fake” illness. It has no other proper use in modern English save as a synonym for “fake.” NO. OTHER. PROPER. USE.
Dude, I'm Johns Hopkins/UChicago pedigree

Also note it is an exclusively active verb, not a transitive one
So that the subject of a sentence must actively be “feigning” something. There’s no such thing as a “feigner,” on the other hand (this would be passive).
I can't wait for the end of this year's uninspiring sports montage.

Billy Joel is sub-fine. He is actually sub-mediocre.
Which is to say, a few good songs here and there (my pick: “Scenes From An Italian Restaurant”), plus a lot of schmaltz and a godawful tendency for ballads with nothing to redeem themselves. He’s Paul McCartney without the insane talent…and you can’t get away with the crap that McCartney does unless you have McCartney-level musical genius.

Nobody thought it could be done.
Steve Steve Steve Steve…STEVE! Seriously, if we lose tomorrow, what are our chances of getting that first pick? They gotta be pretty solid, right? Also, assuming it happens, how embarassing will getting swept by the Nats be? Seriously, I would think the guy who put this team together would have to change his name, move to Greece, and live out his days swilling ouzo and sleeping with hookers while crying. Sorry, Bill, but if it’s any consolation, I hear Athens is nice.
Not only would we be getting swept by the Nats
We’d be getting swept by the Nats AAA team pretty much. That’s a level of embarassment that surpasses anything that’s happened to us this season so far.
Not just us and not just this season
No Ryan Zimm. No Nick Johnson. And still, we lost the first two. Man oh man, that is just unpleasant.
Oh the hilarity that ensues when most of the regulars are gone and the game is shit...

Notes from the game
What a totally frustrating game all over the place. SafeCo Fans suck ass. Bedard was striking out quite a few people, and I was the only one trying to get the claps going. I failed miserably several times and just quit.
I heckled Vidro several times. The first time I just shouted "retire". The second time I yelled "BATTING THIRD, YOUR DESIGNATED SUPPOSED HITTER, JOSE VIDRO"… then he hit the home run. A fan a few seats down looked at me, then yelled "HEY RAUL, YOU SUCK TOO!". I guess he figured calling someone out was beneficial.
Beltre’s bomb was known immediately by the fans. Everything about that was cool.
The fans pathetically tried to start the wave while the game was tied 2-2. An inning after the Batista home run, nobody was interested in the game anymore and the thing was in full effect.
John McLaren is ridiculously stupid. Not that I wanted Arthur to remain in there or anything, but pulling him after Sexson screwed up a pickoff move is pretty dumb. He’d already gotten two outs and had thrown a ball to the next batter. Instead of letting him finish the inning, here comes Sean Green for more arm straining work. Is Roy Corcoran dead?
Sexson was murdered by the fanbase. They weren’t really on him hard until the strikeout in the 6th. After that, they were on him for everything. They booed him during the botched pickoff move. They booed him when he was throwing the ball around the infield inbetween innings. Etc. He’s the most hated man in SafeCo.
I don’t know how many times I screamed for Jeremy Reed to pinch hit. Lot of good it did me.
Did Yuni’s defensive play look as cool on TV as it did in person? Did Yuni’s complete failure of a sac bunt attempt look as bad on TV as it did in person?
Sucks having to watch a loss, but this wasn’t even an entertaining loss aside from King Awesome going yard.

Bavasi is the problem and you know it.
Nice comments, TIF. The Sexson booing isn’t surprising, but only the entire Baseball Nation could have predicted his decreasing abilities.
Then again, can Bavasi accurately predict anything?
