soxfan420 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I have heard people comment on how bad his blister looked, does anyone have any new pictures of it? Danks sounds like a gamer for even pitching with the way some people make it sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) Here's another short summary Part of the reason for Danks' early struggles may have stemmed from an issue he was having with the index finger of his left pitching hand. He experienced blisters and a circulation problem a month ago, which caused him to miss a start. Saturday marked his sixth straight start in the rotation, but the problem flared up again, as television cameras captured what appeared to be a discoloration on his finger. Danks quickly tried putting those issues to rest after the game. "The finger's all right," Danks insisted. "It's OK. Apparently, they were showing it on TV. It wasn't nearly as bad as it looked. It's obviously still a work in progress, and I'm going to beat it. But everything was fine. I'm not going to use that as an excuse. It's just a matter of me not throwing strikes. I'll just have to get better." And video of him saying it. Edited August 23, 2009 by SoxAce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, those two fades at the end of the song truncate 20 or so minutes of outro jamming where Ringo was just beating the hell out of his drums and his hands.

Yep, though the first was written by John and Paul and only sung by him. Ditto for Yellow Submarine and Good Night. He gets writing and vocal credits for Don't Pass Me By. He also sang lead vocals on the old Luther Dixon and Wes Farrell song Boys. Ringo was great, even as an undistinguished drummer, and the band wouldn't have been the same without him.

If by "some" you mean It Don't Come Easy (which was reportedly written by George Harrison), then you're right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
