  1. nah... he didn't get hit, but it was behind him... Eaton swears he was just trying to move him off the plate with a sinker at the hands... must've gotten away from him, huh... I see that one of our "bright young prospects" is up from AAA to start tomorrow... Edinson Volquez, he's very talented but still learning "how" to pitch... he's 6-6 with a 3.21 ERA this year in AAA... one good thing about him (and Diamond) is that at each level he gets beaten on pretty good (still KOs a lot of folks though) when he first gets there but then improves as he figures things out... we'll see tomorrow... could be a good outing could be disaster... he's 23 out of the Dominican and they call him "little Pedro"... oh well, a split with the Angels although the games went opposite of what I thought they would... didn't see you hiway, although I did see two very talented blondes in denim shorts they kept showing...
  2. gee... the home plate umpire... Rob Drake... let's see he's a AAA ump when not doing ML games, lives in Buena Park about 9.2 miles from Angels Stadium... is he an Angels fan? is his lifelong dream to have an impact on a pennant race? he's an umpire, it's all about him...and wants to factor in. How'd he do? hmmm, he tossed Eaton for hitting a batter?
  3. I don't think it will Robi... I'm of the feeling that it'll continue to die... as both the roots and the twigs continue to die off... (hello by the way) oh yeah... and what Geo said as well... different times, one of the effects being that it's the "information age" now...

    If I'm not mistaken I think Melanie had a little fling with Mick back in the day... the Rascals! How did they sound? Did they play "Groovin"??? After reading your post I was wondering if any members of Spirit were still alive... and if they're out there somewhere...
  5. dangit! ...a day late again! have a happening day today as well krys!
  6. Is it Leyland's influence? ...that guy's magic! They've made a bunch of moves since last year... but he is good... and he's got them believing in themselves... in a strong division.
  7. I can't QT... I had to look it up since we weren't allowed to listen to it...
  8. dangit! I was gonna say that... only I can't see the first pic...
  9. BTW... whoever it is doing the game with Joe Buck today is sickeningly syruppy and exceedingly full of himself...
  10. a men... Jan and Dean... then I'd vote for Beach Boys...
  11. I cannot guess because I was involved in a 'christian' cult at the time that album/song came out and we weren't allowed to listen to devil music.
  12. Looking for you... still haven't seen you... sheesh... we made it past Weaver and Lackey and it figures we'd go to sleep on this one... of course, Koronka (or however he spells it) has been a little iffy his last couple of starts... and now Benoit has just given up 2 more... watch those come back to bite us... but doesn't look like it'll make any difference...
  13. oh no mein president! tis up to you
  14. cool... I remember you saying something about that... wish I could be there with you... which inning will you be waving from behind home plate? what will you be wearing? are you in the field level boxes? I was in one of those at the old S.D. ballpark (Jack Murphy?)... it was a neat atmosphere and you see the players very closely, but not too good of a perspective...
  15. Bartolo Colon is likely out for the season... too bad...
  16. DeRosa got his first carerr GS tonight and chased Lackey... Padilla seems to be back to good form (into the 7th, 2runs)... but freaking Vlad Guerero owns us... he's hit safely in every game he's ever faced the stRangers... Garrett Anderson is right behind him but I guess you'd know that... oops, I've got to quit doing this... as I've typed they've got men on 2 & 3 with no out... I hear ya about injuries... it seems every day I look up and see something about the BoSox... hiway! where are you? at Chavez Ravine I hope... Simon! have you and Rocky been to the BOB lately?
  17. Gee... he's really going out on a limb there isn't he?
  18. all that came to my mind (if they weren't scamming) was... WHAT KNUCKLEHEADS!!! not the dog's fault IMO...
  19. Expand on your curiosity? I'm kind of wondering what your theory is (if you have one) based upon the fact that you asked "Are you male" rather than options for male and female... but then I am strange...
  20. happening day dude! cervesas and "plaid" at the flying saucer! be there, aloha!
  21. oh well... 6-6... where's the set up guy? oh yeah... Milwaukee...
  22. Konan something? Time and something? Franklin and something? It's late...
  23. Millwood's into the eighth... we're hanging on 6-2... keeping fingers crossed... GMJ had an assist at home (from CF) to keep them to two...
