Can we not go 1-2-3?

For once, please? Oakland is basically guaranteed at least a runner in scoring position every inning.

I hope not.

Ray Allen probably sucks at baseball.

Let’s make the Athletics feel terrible because it’ll all be their fault.

I feel you

But the whole goal of April and May is to stay close, especially because we’re waiting on Lee and Bedard. The more they lose, the easier it is for us to do that.

We have like a 50% shot at being no-hit this year

has any team ever been no-hit three times in a season?

Rajai Davis and Kurt Suzuki at least have talent.

But we are making Pennington and Ellis look above average when they’re really not

She represents everything that is good about the world- gentle, loving, sweet, peaceful, intelligent, beautiful.

I will marry her.

When a fellow wants to take a dame out to a nice dinner in Laramie

You take her to Applebees or Chilis, or if you really want to impress her you take her to Olive Garden in Cheyenne.

I’m not joking.

The one time I was in Ft Collins they were bailing hay.

The smell, farms and lack of Kansas humidity had as much to do with my impression as anything

by Kermit. on Apr 8, 2010 3:16 PM PDT up reply actions  

That little downtown area was pretty sharp, looked fairly new.

That part was very unlike Pocatello. Couple decent restaurants, outdoor seating. My comparison was more off the surrounding mountains, farming. All the times I’ve been through Pocatello it left very little impression.

by Kermit. on Apr 8, 2010 3:22 PM PDT up reply actions  

65? That's a serious understatement

To get to Steak ‘n Shake I log 1400 miles, which at 22 MPG and $2.50 a gallon costs $159, plus plus half an oil change which is $25, plus a night at a hotel which is $40, plus food consumed in transit is $30, plus $15 at SnS since I load up, so it’s about $279 for a Steak ’n Shake meal

Bunt down the third base line.

Lopez tried to barehand it but failed. Moore came up the line with his mask in hand and touched the ball with the mask.

He was like “this game fucking sucks, so I’m just going to pick up the baseball with my mask!”
