8/1: Open Game Thread
Baltimore Orioles at Seattle Mariners, Aug 1, 2008 7:10 PM PDT
Jarrod Washburn arrives at the stadium and bumps into Lee Pelekoudas in the hallway
Washburn: Hey, Lee.
Pelekoudas: You're still here?
Later on, Jarrod takes the field to stretch and passes by Rick Griffin
Washburn: Hey, Rick.
Griffin: Hey, Jarrod.
Washburn: How's it going?
Griffin: Hey wait a minute. You're still here?
After stretching, Jarrod enters the locker room a few steps ahead of Pelekoudas, who's walking and talking with Jim Riggleman
Washburn: Hey, Kenji.

Johjima Extension vs Washburn Non-Trade
Which was dumber?
by great gonzalez on Aug 1, 2008 5:54 PM PDT up reply actions
Johjima extension
Washburn will hurt us this year (strasburg hoooo) and maybe a little of next year.
Johjima is going to leave us with a big pile of dumb catching instead of Clement for the next 3 years.
I'm pretty sure she could have splurged for a vacuum cleaner.

Dave Cameron did a spot on KJR today and it’s available online.

Morello was a damn machine.
Did a lot of work with Dave Brubeck experimenting in odd time signatures.
Tough to compare musicians across genres, though.
How do you say who was the “best” guitarist among, say, Tal Farlow, Chet Atkins, Ernest Ranglin, Dick Dale, Albert King, Maybelle Carter and Tony Iommi? All great in totally different ways.

by Aaron Campeau on Aug 1, 2008 7:58 PM PDT up reply actions
So there's an agreement
What do you think of Doug Martsch’s guitar playing? I guess you’d have to have seen him live to really see the skill. In studio he really takes a different approach.
He's good.
I prefer Treepeople and Halo Benders to Built to Spill, but he’s definitely interesting.

Which brings up another thing;
Technical ability is one thing, but what about sonic manipulation? There are plenty of people that could play circles around Thurston Moore, but he’s more gifted than anyone alive at getting amazing sounds out of his instruments. And with traditional rock being just about tapped out, it’s going to become even more of an issue going forward.

Good point
Though I try to not take that into account, I naturally gravitate to guitarists with good sounds (Mick Ronson, whoever was Richard Hell and the Voidoids’ guitarist.)
Speaking strictly from a technical standpoint.
Morello was freaky gifted. Had an almost other-worldly ability to work with poly-rhythms and play in the funkiest time signatures.
You will never talkl me down from Pete Townshend.

Okay, Jazz drummers are always the best no matter what.
That’s a given, but among rock and pop drummers? Danny Seim.

I’m saying aside from jazz drummers. Because they are, truly, always the best. Everyone knows that.
"Danny Seim > anyone else"

How is the Dodgers game tied at 1 in the 7th?
Goose, aren’t your boys pulling the ball towards that dreadlocked coatrack in left?

I just noticed that. I missed the last few innings cause I was in the shower.
And he’s out and Beimel’s in.

For a game with a ton of runs scored
The game’s actually gone pretty fast. I guess the M’s know how to suck efficiently.

RJ just said DRB is turning your lives upside down on AIM. I assume I should just laugh at him. Y/N?

I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't
If I used my mod powers, Jeff will roast me for using them wrong… but if I don’t use them, it’s proof that I’m no good as a mod.
It's almost as if they set you up to fail.

I don't know how to respond to this, but it's making me chuckle.
So a rec for you, kind sir! You are a gentleman and a scholar!
Be correct sometime.

Olson's beyond gassed
Tremblay’s leaving him in to see if he can finish. If it gets anywhere resembling close, they’ll get Cormier.

So the word 'sucks' is the new 'bad'?
like he’s ‘bad’ which mean he’s ‘good’? Becaue Reed is the man.

Also, Rays, won, its great to win.

Uh... if by horrible you mean... epic...
Any game that goes 10-0 is going to be horrible. And any thread where there are no mods (cept Gomez) is going to be bad…
Not if people would show some restraint.

You shouldn't even have to worry about it.

I've pretty much given up on Friday threads.
Because the mods come back and say “Wow, this thread sucked,” and I feel guilty for not being more entertaining.
It's a Thursday for me, and most of my friends, and I'm usually wiped out by this time of the week.
I wish the threads didn’t suck, but I’ve got nothing better to do.

Yeah, it's my Thursday too.
And I’m at work for the first two hours of the game anyway, so I might as well. I just have very little to add.

I'm going to enjoy listening to my friends bitch about Beltre flying out in the 9th to end the game.
You know, even though we were down by 10 runs coming into the inning and still were trailing by five with two outs.
STRASBURG HO!
Washington actually won a game today.
Pick up a game on them in the Strasburg standings
Best part about the game
What?
I wondered why everyone was complaining.

Hmmm This thread almost got to 1000 posts
doesn’t happen too often
This thread needs some techno. I'm finna get my club on.
I just found out that the liquor store down the block from me has perhaps the best beer selection I’ve ever seen, rivaling Beverages & More. And it’s open 24 hours. I’m never moving.
Holy shit this is the worst thread I've ever scrolled through halfheartedly

Matthew (4:28): Also, Graham and I are taking this one in person so you might want to make plans to be elsewhere if you haven’t already or else enjoy the game thread in solitude.
Jeff (5:29): Got plans. It’ll be a nightmare game thread, but whatever.

I have a feeling I'm glad I was protected from the worst of this.
But I do enjoy giving commentary after it’s all over and the rest of you are sleeping it off.
