[NinersSBChamps]

Oh ****.

Astronomy jokes are fini.

Also, Laird is a gas giant.

Uranus

Something about these west coast games...

 

[Julio3000]

Back in the 80s, we had endless road trips to LA, SD, and SF. And Skip brought the hooch in an extra suitcase. Rowland Office called himself the "traveling secretary." Whatever that means.

He and Otis spent a lot of time together.

I grew up listening to the bad Braves on the radio. Skip was noticeably three sheets to the wind a lot of the time.

I think Chip might have spent some time in Rowland's office in those days.

 

[Hulavol]

Hula! What's the latest on Oso's knees.

Seems fine to me. He has been playing a lot more lately. I guess the cause of a lot of his bitching earlier has ceased to a significant degree. I know he hass been in a lot of pain, but seems much better.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Four pages and almost an hour before the game starts.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I've been gone all day job searching, so I haven't been around much, but I am so glad it's a night came I'll be able to catch! Laird in the 5th again though... C'mon man.

[Julio3000]

I'm on pace to pass out by the top of the third, so I'll miss Lord Uranus's game winning-hit, sadly.

BTW does anyone else kind of feel weird knowing about movies that no one else knows the story behind? Everytime I see a commercial for Slumdog errrrrr Million Dollar Arm I think that Jon Hamm is a bad representation of JB Bernstein and I have a hunch they'll down play House's role.

When a band starts as badly as this thread, they just stop and start over. I recommend a similar plan of action.

Professionals just keep going. Usually the audience is too stupid/talentless to notice.

Watch Laird play much?

 

[Dalyn]

Where was your vacation?

Tennessee. Visited with family.

 

[jsebe10]

Pre game is showing previous games that Jason's had in this park...His swing back then was money! It's a night and day difference than his swing and stance today.

 

[Julio3000]

He hit a big HR against Javier Lopez one time. I remember that. Or was it Affeldt?

Cool beans.

A game of horseshoes?

 

[CyYoung31]

My return is complete.

This is actually the first game since last summer where I can actually sit back and watch a game while at my/a computer.

In other words, I'm taking full credit for this Renaissance.
