my retort, was based on the fact that the benny hill show, was a fucking comedy or at least pretended to be one
and was not a TV drama – although the joke seems somewhat lost on here, which isn’t that much of a surprise.

that makes sense, so long as being out of the tub is out of the playoffs, and obviously IN the tub is in the playoffs.

just creeping into the division lead, barely getting a taste of it, and when we finally get a tie for the lead of the division, we go all: “AHHHHH HOLY FUCK! GET ME THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!! ARRRRGGHHH! HOLY FUCKBALLS I DONT WANNA BE HERE AAHHHHH!!!!!!” so then we simply jump right out of contention.

Goldstein - the other Beckham he refers to is Tim
Like the Beckham comment, this isn’t necessarily a bad pick, as Alonso had a solid but unspectacular full-season debut, this is more about what could have been: in the hours leading up to the draft, the Reds were torn between Alonso and University of Georgia shortstop Gordon Beckham. Alonso looks like he might be a power/on-base first baseman with problems hitting against left-handers, while Beckham looks like a future star with a chance to be a “face of the franchise”-type of player. So there are no big complaints about what they have, as long as you don’t think about what could have been.

Was on the road all day yesterday traveling our vast critter induced State

and picked up the game on the radio. I forgot what a friggin train wreck that DJ is in the booth. He starts of the game actually as an okay announcer, but then as the game goes on he gets progressively worse until it makes your ears bleed. I think he is either on some sort of medication or his drinking during the game, because his mind and comments begin to be all over left field. His obvious flirtations with Ed Farmer in the later innings even make Ed uncomfortable. The last thing that makes him an abortion to listen to is his opinion that he knows everything and all about hitting and fielding. The guy was a horsesh*t journey man player…

Did any of you hear the tape of him and Ed after Saturday’s debacle? DJ said something like “all was going well early on for Freddy Garcia and then all of a sudden the wheels fell off. Kind of like getting rear ended out of nowhere and then getting banged and banged and banged and banged some more. Just keep getting banged.”….then Ed uncomfortably broke in and tried to stop it and then when he went back to DJ for a comment, DJ had already left the booth.

Ahh well, there’s my two cents (which is one more than KW has right now). Hopefully the DJ experiment is ovah.

Rangers hahaha 0 -4 down at home

the least loved team in Britain

by hoodlight on Sep 29, 2009 3:18 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

serious question

In Britain, or in soccer, do they routinely state a score with the trailing score first?

how much for the Tyler Flowers rookie card?

by Nordhagen on Sep 29, 2009 3:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

the home team is listed first

as is their score.

you can imagine

that’s a scoreline i don’t mind seeing.
i haven’t heard anyone disliking rangers except celtic supporters of course. please explain who else dislikes them and why.

meant for nordy

as opposed to US where it is away team first

by hoodlight on Sep 29, 2009 3:21 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

not always.

there is no system here and it’s very irritating. across all sports, sometimes the away team is listed first, and if it is it should be followed by “at”, but then again, sometimes they just say “v” or “vs” or “versus” and you have no fucking idea who’s home and who’s away.

I prefer our method

home team is always first in all major sports, stops any confusion
