Opening Day MS Paint Thread

So yesterday I volunteered to write in U-God's afternoon slot. Then the bossman got sick. For real sick, not opening day sick like 90% of you. So here we go-
"What should I write about?" I wondered.
I am playing U-God this week in the sss fantasy baseball league. Maybe I could do a piece about what I found from looking at several projection systems and comparing them for fantasy purposes. For example, Bill James is widely regarded as being too optimistic when it comes to predicting young players performance, but actually he is much more kind to old boys like Bobby Abreu and Miguel Tejada. He believes they can maintain their production better than basically every other system does. In fact, rotowire seems to be the most optimistic with the young kids, especially if they were productive while getting a cup of coffee last season. That is more of a RR piece though, fantasy stuff doesn't have the mass appeal, especially on such a good day. I need something else (like a nap).
Opening Day is a top 5 holiday for me, so I considered doing a piece documenting the 110 years of White Sox Opening Days, starting with April 24, 1901, when the White Stockings defeated the Cleveland Indians 8-3 at South Side Park in front of 6,000 and the American League was born. But opening day is about looking forward, it isn't about the past. Pass.
It was around this time my brain started to malfunction in a major way. I started to feel like the sss clown, so naturally Andy the Clown popped into my head. Maybe I could profile Andy. He only missed one opening day in the 30 years he came to White Sox games in costume from 1960-1990, and that was because his wife passed away the day before in 1989. It's a shame they told Andy to get lost when Comiskey II went up. Still, there isn't that much out there about Andy that you can't learn from his wikipedia page, and again that would be about the past. Next.
I considered doing a rah rah cheerleader piece, because opening day is all about optimism. We can do it! The weather is about to break, the sun will soon make our winter attire obsolete, blah blah blah. Boring.
Opening Day is about optimism to be sure, but more than that Opening Day is FUN. And what is more fun than a MS Paint thread?
My brain couldn't handle writing or even establishing a good idea for a cognitive article, but I sure had some good ideas for silly, poorly done drawings. I thought I would do the Sox rotation as the four horsemen of the apocalypse. And then the 5th horseman would be Jake Peavy, riding backwards on his steed. Good idea right? But drawing horses is hard. Still there was something there, and Andy was still up there milling around...

Continue with your nap. ;) But yes, BASEBALL dominates. Finally.

So.. I'm useless, and have never really used MS Paint
How do I crop an image? Like in Rhubarb’s above for example, he has the players heads cut out from somewhere else, and pasted on to this one..
Was trying to do something similar, but I’m failing to cut out the images. I tried to just select the rest of the picture and erase the parts I don’t want. But when I paste it on to another picture it just shows the empty space on top of the background.
by Grinder in Training on Mar 31, 2011 10:56 AM CDT up reply actions
uses the star chaped tool to outline the the portion of the picture you want to cut out then right-click and select cut
from there it is in your clipboard and just use the eraser tool to erase the shit outside of the cut outline
bobpuller lives
It just erases it white though..
I want like a cut out image, to be on top of another image? When I paste it, it pastes as a square. I’d like to paste a multi-sided shape on top of a background. Is that possible?
by Grinder in Training on Mar 31, 2011 11:03 AM CDT up reply actions
you have to click the starshpaed tool in the top left corner of your vertical tool bar then hold and drag around the shape you want to cut.
Once you are done it will show a box outlined in dashes but if you click ‘cut’ within that it will cut what you outlined.
bobpuller lives
I may just be handicapped.
It’s still cutting out a square, even though I use the star tool. This is why I hated art class. Thanks for the help though.

you are not doing something correctly.
save your work and fuck with it until you get it.
bobpuller lives
I should rephrase that, it's cutting out the image correctly.
The problem I have is, that it pastes a square, so there’s white edges around the shape that I cut out. I want to just paste the cut out part, is that possible?

MB NOT pitching home opener:
Mark Buehrle, who will be the White Sox’s opening-day starter Friday, will come back and pitch Wednesday at Kansas City, enabling the Sox to skip a fifth starter the first time through the rotation.
Phil Humber will start the season in the bullpen. He is destined to make his first start against Tampa Bay on April 9, according to pitching coach Don Cooper.
Buehrle told the staff he had no qualms about pitching again Wednesday and not starting the Sox’s home opener the following day

I had a subscription to MLB.tv a few years ago when I was in college.
And now I have this free 30 day trial that I got from pre-ordering MLB 11 The Show. I think I’m going to use it on my PS3 as well. I’m going to wait until mid-month to activate it though. So I too am hoping the PS3 version kicks ass.

Sox games are blacked out down here.

The blackout rules are ridiculous.
When I was in school I was out of market (southern Indiana) and got only WGN games on TV. But I was still in the blackout zone, so I couldn’t get mlb.tv (which was blacked out and I’m not about to pay for it AND use a proxy to get around it). I guess Bud Selig wanted me to make the six hour drive to go to the park whenever I wanted to see a game. Worst part was 20 miles south, the blackout zone ended and I could have seen the games on mlb.tv. And every year, people ask if Bud will fix the ridiculous blackout rules, and every year Bud says they’re looking into it, and every year nothing changes and the decision is justified with nothing more than “it was a decision by the office of the commissioner” and that’s that.
This will be my first full season of being able to watch the Sox on a regular basis since 2005. Looking forward to it. Radio via my phone and gameday have their charms, but I think TV is just a bit better.

They take a basic and innocent concept like "We want people in the local area to GO to the game"
And they completely fuck it up. The blackout bubble should only extend a couple hundred miles outside of city where the team is IMO.

It's retarded. No one is going to go to a game just because they can't watch it online.
All it does is makes me have to look for it online somewhere else, and then they don’t get my hundred bucks, which I would gladly pay if not for the blackouts.

But I feel like cock blocking your fan-base from watching and keeping up with their team hurts the organization in the long run. I’ve never said, “Well I can’t watch the Sox on the computer today. I think I’ll drive the 4 1/2 hours up to Chicago to watch them instead.”

I think there's an arrogant assumption being made by MLB
when they allow blackouts to happen. They are essentially saying that they give their fans too much free baseball and that we are well equipped to give them more money. Baseball is doing just fine. Reward your fans by allowing them to see the product on TV a lot and they’ll WANT to go to the ballpark for a different experience.

yeah i have to say that i definitely don't understand
the adversarial relationship that they’ve taken with this blackout stuff. larry has probably gone over this, but i don’t remember. if i had to guess, maybe individual owners get a veto over changes?
outside of that, i think MLB does a better job than most sports of being open to their fans. no one gets better stats than us.

Kind of rough, yeah,
but I think it actually made me a better fan. When I couldn’t watch the Sox, I found myself having to work harder at it. Putting more effort into being a fan and having to really look for White Sox content led to reading more internet baseball content, and learning about advanced stats, and overall a better understanding of the game.

The blackout is ridiculous.
I live in Iowa City, which means I have SIX teams blacked out: the Twins, Brewers, Cubs, White Sox, Cardinals, and Royals!!
A fifth of MLB blacked out for a state that doesn’t even have a team — that’s your blackout rules in a nutshell.
Our manager wears 13, we were supposedly cursed, and we wear black. Let's play.
Do you get any of those teams on tv?
I’ve always wondered that. Figured you might get one, maaaaaybe two of them. Iowa and I think some parts of Nevada are the ones hit the hardest by blackout rules, both places that aren’t really in anyone’s market. It would make some twisted sort of sense if they got several different teams on TV, but I don’t think that’s even the case.

On basic cable/satellite, WGN and CSN Chicago with the Cubs and Sox (but not WCIU)
My folks live down towards Missouri and they get Fox Sports St. Louis, and I think the northern part of the state gets the Twins (and the corner towards Kansas City might get the Royals).
But aside from WGN, no station covers the whole state.

This is a little off-topic, but I had a question for everyone...
There’s been a lot of talk lately about them trying to either get rid of the DH in the AL, or put the DH in both leagues. It seems that if anything happens they’ll get rid of the DH in the AL. I don’t know what your feelings on this are, but I wouldn’t like it. That being said… IF they do decide to do it, would that take effect immediately or do you think they’d give the league 2 or 3 years to adjust their rosters accordingly. Because that would leave us up shit creek without a paddle because of the contract we just gave to Dunn.
"There he was!!! Dirtying his shiny Sox helmet!!!" - homesickalien at the brief glimpse of Manny Ramirez
by Servant2LordBeckham on Mar 31, 2011 4:41 PM CDT reply actions
I can't either. But I'm speaking hypothetically.
Do you think they’d have the courtesy and common sense to allow teams a couple years to get rid of players that are limited to a DH only type of role?
"There he was!!! Dirtying his shiny Sox helmet!!!" - homesickalien at the brief glimpse of Manny Ramirez
by Servant2LordBeckham on Mar 31, 2011 4:48 PM CDT up reply actions
it wouldn't be a case of the teams 'getting rid' of players,
they’d demand hefty compensation for the contract plus the potential marketing losses, actual losses on the pitch, potential play-off appearances etc.
That makes more sense.
"There he was!!! Dirtying his shiny Sox helmet!!!" - homesickalien at the brief glimpse of Manny Ramirez

yup.
the dunn contract is a good example why. there are always going to be teams that have handed out big contracts to DHs and they aren’t going to allow themselves to be screwed.
don’t see why they would change it now anyway. can’t imagine the union would like it much either.

"Many people need desperately to receive this message: 'I feel and think much as you do, care about many of the things you care about, although most people do not care about them. You are not alone.'"
I've heard about it a lot the last couple of years.
Originally I’d heard that Joe Torre and LaRussa were on a committee that discussed this, adding more double-headers to the schedule, and adding one more wild card in each league.

Really.
I think its perfect now and expanding it just includes unworthy teams (e.g., 2010 Red Sox or White Sox). I wouldn’t be too mad if they added 1 more team for each league, but that brings it closer to the day when the MLB becomes like the NBA/NFL & half the teams make it, and the very long 162-game season becomes boring and insignificant. And once you change it, there’s no going back.
the only thing Crash Davis was ever wrong about
was the DH.
Original visitors' friend in the Lancaster County area!
I'm one of the few people I know who actually likes the DH.
And it seems like every argument against it is somehow about it not being the purest form of the game or that the pitcher laying down a bunt in the NL is some deeply intelligent “strategy”.

Making pitchers hit is stupid.
Aside from the NL, there’s, what, one NPB league and some independent league that don’t use the DH, and that’s about it. The DH is progress, and not using it makes you the odd man out.
Get with the times, NL. No one wants to watch Clayton Kershaw cost his team 1.3 wins by flailing helplessly with a bat before being pulled prematurely so that someone less useless can take those swings for him, we want to watch him strike out a bunch of dudes and watch someone who is good at hitting baseballs be good at hitting baseballs. Sure, NL fans SAY that they like watching one starter waste pitches working a full count on another starting pitcher, but that’s only because they have nothing to compare it to. All they get are interleague games where their manager inexplicably uses the DH put a player who shouldn’t be starting games in the starting lineup because of his defense or grit or whatever. It’s not their fault- they know nothing else. They’ve been wearing blinders so long it’s easy for them to not notice how stupid the things they think they like are. But we know better. Let them have a DH, a real DH, for a full season. Sure, for a bit they’ll whine about the payroll and how these guys keep hitting home runs and their pitchers are having a rough time because there are no more black holes at the bottom of the lineup, acting like a safe zone that they struggle to keep getting back to, but when the dust settles they’ll realize letting players do what they’re good at and not making pitchers go out there to frankly embarrass themselves is an actual good idea.
Look, NL, you have your opinions on some things and we all think that’s adorable, but your opinions are all wrong. This DH thing, it really works. That’s kinda why we got it in the first place. So either stop pretending that tradition is everything and embrace the DH, or let your pitchers throw 400 innings a season. Those are your choices.

if the pitchers are infact
that good at hitting, are they allowed to be the designated hitter for themselves?
I have to look this up, but if a pitcher pitches that day and bats
the manager can’t actually tell the ump that even though this guy is pitching, he’s also the DH, and if they bring in a reliever, the starter will keep batting, right?
I would think that the pitcher can hit for himself under regular substitution rules.

The way baseball was "meant to be played"
1) teams travelling by train, so road trips lasted a month
2) wool uniforms
3) no black players
4) sharpened spikes
5) New York teams win 4 out of every 5 seasons
6) Illiterate, racist players who were borderline retarded
7) no teams west of St. Louis
8) No mitts
9) No SABRmetrics. As a matter of fact, Ty Cobb would beat the shit out of SABR cockthrob, Bill James
10) No women at games, just smelly immigrant guys in 3-piece wool suits.
11) No complaining about MLB blackout rules, there’s nothing to blackout. Buy a ticket, or fuck off.
12) Watch 2 old Italian guys write the score on a chalk board outside a tavern for your updates.

Defense: Hint. Don’t let Adam Dunn play the field.

Further, looking back at the six years of predictions here from 2004-2009, I note that I picked the Cubs to make the playoffs every year and to win the World Series every one of those years except 2006.

he would maul to death the very concept of it.
He'd probably shoot the whole team for being called "cubs."
And then he’d come here and kick my ass for drawing him so poorly. We’re talking about a guy who was shot in the chest during a speech, told the crowd “It would take more than that to kill a Bull Moose,” and then finished his three hour speech from memory before going to a doctor.
