Oops, my bad.
Al:
Well, the only thing worse than losing to one of the worst teams in the AL, is losing in 14 innings to one of the worst teams in the AL.
Mike:
Mistakes were made.
Al:
Yeah, I haven't seen anyone misread a sign so badly since that time Doug was accused of unwanted sexual advances at the company pahty.
Mike:
"You like bass and drum
on the hi-fi?"
Al:
You've gotta admit, at a pahty, with loud music, aftah a few drinks a little mutual flirtation, that phrase could easily be mistaken for
"You like face in some
of my creampie?"
Heh. Heh.
Doug:
Who the fuck says "hi-fi" anyway? I mean c'mon.
Thanks h.b. they lost in 14 right? somehow that makes it worse.

OK, so they take 3 of 4 from KC. Just keep winning series.

Who the hell was that kid pitching for the Commoners? I think his ERA was higher than Lackey's.
Oh well, it's just a loss. They happen. Let's treat it like the aberation it is. Unless it turns into another one of those disturbing, happens-too-often-for-comfort losing streaks. There, now I feel better.

Right 14!
No idea where I got 12 from.

Maybe you had a bad bag of Skittles, H.B.

Sounds like an idea for a new Soxaholix t-shirt."Hi-Fi",not"Skittles" ;O

I fell asleep watching the 10th inning. TV on, sound off, wife asleep. I woke up in the 12th to see Reddick go first to third on a single by I don't remember. Then first pitch and Scutaro takes a ball down and in but Reddick's almost halfway down the line. The catcher throws to 3b and Reddick is out. With no sound, I'm thinking, "Get back to third, rookie." Then I shut it off and go back to sleep. Find out today that Scutaro missed the bunt sign. Ugh. But then, there's the new Skittles commercial, so it's not all bad.

"With God as my witness, I'll never eat Skittles again!"

No really. Never again...

I need a ground rule for the comments here. Hypothetically, it has to do with a short baseball player getting naked and running across the stage for like a whole month or more. Would we mention it or is it like a perfect game where you don't want to gooch it?
Posted by: Kaz | 2011.07.26 at 01:19 PM
If said hypothetical player were drunk, would it be a "ground rule double"?

I'm being pedantic here (I know 'artistic license' and all) but as a former rave baby I do not believe that Drum & Bass has ever (EVER), been referred to as bass & drum.
Not telling nobody how to make their masterpiece though, so you run with that shit. It's a fuckin' meme.
As far as games go? Glad I didn't stay up for this one. My eyes bleed enough as it is.

And if you're for real you eat Pixy Stix. Skittles taste like rehydrayted horse piss. Word.
Posted by: pseudosanity78 | 2011.07.26 at 03:34 PM
pseudo, my dear, truer words were never spoken. As an ex-drummer and lover of rave-babies everywhere, no one should ever (EVER) elevate a bass over the king of instruments, the Drums.
The beat goes on, Baby. In the name of the father (JoJo Jones), the son (Dave Garibaldi), and Joe Morrello, AMEN!

Arriving in the mail yesterday was an inflatable Stanley Cup (every home should have one) and various other good bits and pieces for the 8 Year Old 'Sox Fan (aks Bruins pink hat). Big thanks to Buckner was Framed for his generosity and equal thanks to Hart for creating the cyber environment in which real friendships across the oceans have formed and blossomed.

Just like nobody says "hi fi" either. That is Doug's point.. easy to mishear when somebody is speaking in unexpected ways.

Priceless pics, sdu.
Posted by: Bob | 2011.07.26 at 04:43 PM
sdu, I'd like to send you something in the mail too for your kid to play with.
Unrelated but does anyone know what the S&H cost is for a Lackey-sized shipping crate?
Posted by: Kaz | 2011.07.26 at 04:50 PM
Excellentpicssdu! :)
Okay, okay, I think I'm getting it now h.b. Little slow on the uptake, but I get there in the end.
And if you lot have 18 minutes to waste, go on and watch this (I promise it's relevant (eventually)....

Lackey? A lot of delivery companies won't even ship hazardous waste.

Bob, apparently you can ship hazdordous waste to the Ivory Coast at no extra cost, civil war notwithstanding.
