What will it take for MLB to ban those brittle bats?
Quite frankly a bat flying into the stands and spilling my beer would be enough for me.
Washburn needs to freshen up his excuses
I hope he blames Erik Aybar for looking too much like a 13 year old girl.

My parents kept the unhealthiest food in the world around.
My idea of rebellion was to get interested in hippie food and never eat anything with artificial colors/flavors. I might have to make an exception for Otter Pops, though, I had forgotten how much I love them.

one of my favorite freshman moments.
A hallmate and I were finished a few days early and were kicking around the dorm until everyone else finished. One night some people across the hall were studying and repeatedly kept barking at us for making too much noise in our lounge around 8-9pm. So we started lobbing peanuts at them across the atrium. They responded by closing the shutters to their lounge. My hallmate ended the fight by filling up a giant water balloon and shotputting it into the shutters whereupon it shattered and soaked them all and their notes.
So it's okay for you to muse about school and happenings

They have a 7 in the 7th contest where the winner of a drawing gets some big prize if the Mariners score 7 runs in the 7th inning. In other words, they win a house or something after hell freezes over.

if a replacement level defender makes the pick
then it’s on Richie.
And I agree, any 1B with talent makes that pick. It was on line enough.
It's tough,
but I think you have to be able to make that play as a major league first baseman. blah blah blah I know Richie’s not a major league first baseman but you know what I mean.
by mr.smartypants on Jun 2, 2008 9:10 PM PDT up reply actions
He was serious
If the throw’s in reach and you’re a 1B, you have to be able to pick it if it’s off the mark.
I have a lame attempt
but flickr is crapping out on me. right now. Stay tuned though.
Can't blame him

He was alright
Jimmy Fallon’s sense of humor just plain sucks though, there’s no way he’ll be good.
I don't know
If he can channel the off-beat absurdity of early Letterman and Conan (on good nights) Late Night shows, maybe it’ll turn out alright.

You know who deserves a shot more than him?
Norm McDonald.
Fuck yeah
Norm MacDonald is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen.

and he just seems made for a talk show.
He was at his peak on Weekend update and at his worst trying to headline a scripted comedy.
Yeah
Every time I’ve seen him operate without a script he’s been quite entertaining. But he’s never going to get a show at NBC so…

I'm just not sure he's likable enough to do a celebrity talkshow.

I never heard the story behind this.
Do tell.
Basically, one of the NBC executives decided he "wasn't funny"
And demanded he be removed from the Weekend Update sketch. Which pissed Norm off, so he left the show.
Nope, NBC suit was friends with OJ
Norm was fired because of too many OJ jokes. The exec didn’t understand the dry humor and was annoyed that the studio audience didn’t guffaw at everyone of his jokes—whoosh.
It’s funny because Norm was the most popular guy ever to do that segment since the originals.

Well, that's closer.
Still not as good though.
I thought it was because of the OJ jokes
Which pissed of Lorne Michaels, who fired him.

Unfortunately
Not enough people get Norm McDonald’s humor.

I don't
We didn’t evolve. We were placed here by dinosaurs, who developed FTL drives and journeyed to Alpha Centauri.

Yeah, that happen because I clicked "Post" but
it went to “posting” for a long time so I clicked “Preview” and then “Post” and I guess it posted it twice.
"Hole in one, eh?"

just the stupid little blue ”?”

“family friendly” now
Honestly I'm not a huge fan of it no matter what they call it
I go to the game to watch the game, pisses me off when my friends want to go out there, especially if we have quality seats.
Well these days I wouldn't waste my money
the one time I did enjoy the beer garden was for a company function…the DRays shut out the M’s 1-0…Jamie Moyer pitched a complete game, but we were all so loaded that when we asked if we could go out to smoke and come back in the usher was like “the game’s over….” We looked out and sure enough there was no one on the field.
