QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2012 -> 05:59 PM) Confusingly, it really didn't, because the defense wouldn't have gotten an extra out, just kept a runner at 1b. Floyd walked the next 3 batters, so unless having the guy at 1b would still have scored. DUNN WAS SAFE. I think Izturis was toast at home

WOW BAD CALL

The interesting thing is that our defense cost us a run in that inning IMO

His fastball is moving an obscene amount compared to normal, it's blowing his mind

My umpire contact says that any umpire that has graduated from the professional school would do this.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 3, 2012 -> 11:25 PM) Really, I'm the only one who has no interest? That's.......interesting. My vote for Dr. Pepper indicates my non-interest. It is a spectacularly un-interesting time period for me. That along with the Middle Ages.

QUOTE (Tex @ Aug 4, 2012 -> 12:10 PM) I'm going to shut up after this. Bottom line, anyone who believe that extremists speak for an entire population do not know enough people in that population. Anyone who believe the few people they see on TV speaking out on an issue speak for anyone else besides themselves risk a huge mistake. From politics to religion, from sports to art, no large groups are that in step with each other. Balta can try and lump me in with the groups we see on TV all he likes, but I sincerely hope that no one else does. I have been very clear that I support getting government out of the business of marriage. That the people involved should decide what is, and is not, a marriage. I do not believe I have to wave a sign or be on TV for my opinion to be validated. When a liberal politician wants to take away my guns, he is not speaking for me. When a liberal politician wants to extend abortions to the third trimester, he is not speaking for me. When my state senators speak out against gay rights, drilling in Alaska, or a myriad of other things, they are not speaking for me. I shouldn't have to constantly point that out. At my college, every single persoin I've met from Texas flies a Texas flag in their dorm room. Should I not assume that you have a Texas flag in your home somewhere?

I guess I only know American/American immigrant Muslims....they all love their countries of origin, but most left due to the treatment of women and violence. Of course, it's a little easier to make money in the USA as well (but the economy!!!)

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 3, 2012 -> 03:48 PM) I saw a thread started by Tex titled "150 Years Ago" and figured he was telling us about his upcoming birthday. Came in, wrote post with this joke, saw this, left

His comments make me think that he's down on Gordon. First he says you don't need many big adjustments mechanically if you are ready for the bigs, then he basically says that the primary focus when he works with Gordon is on his mechanics. That means Gordon's hips are so s***ty that no approach will help him hit the ball. The article also makes it seem as if PK is one that responds very well to coaching and that perhaps Jeff/Robin/crew have something to do with this big season Paul is having.

That PK play may have ended up costing them the game.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2012 -> 09:39 PM) This guy throw a sinker? Huge DP possibility here, I'd love a flare to right field. submariner, so lots of drop. Doesn't always mean grounders though, depends on how the batter sees it.
