i really dont want to get swept by the angels
losing, whatever. but i dont like to see the rangers embarrassed.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
I would say so
Since you like to go around to the other SBN sites and embarrass them yourself…
We need to hire Chuck Norris to kick the ass of any Ranger fan caught booing one of our young pitchers at the RBiA.
i represent the Rangers? awesome.
Kinsler is the best player on the rangers(done), BENOIT SUCKS(done), bring up Harrison(done),new: Put Nippert in rotation, Mendoza to the pen, get Feliz to AAA by the end of the year, trade cat
Hmn...
So you and Steal Home are one in the same? That explains a lot.

No
You don’t represent them. Posters like Steal Home are an embarrassment to them and other Ranger fans. There is a difference.

…you might want to wait until 4 a.m. to leave, because that’s when Jindal is opening up the contraflow lanes.
by Adam J. Morris on Aug 30, 2008 8:02 PM CDT up reply actions
thanks Adam..
Well if I left at 2 there would still be access out but not as many lanes to choose from?
Is the contraflow just opening more lanes up on both sides for exit but not entrance into the city?

-Sharky- what a nice guy huh? I guess he doesn't watch any TV shows or movies.. If California goes so goes the entertainment industry. What a nut job!!
Correct
Contraflow is opening both sides of the interstate to be used by traffic departing the city. So if you were on I-10 heading to Houston, you would have what are normally the east-bound lanes opened up for traffic heading west.
by Adam J. Morris on Aug 30, 2008 8:10 PM CDT up reply actions
ok awesome..thanks!
I have a feeling there is not going to be a lot of traffic at 2.. so I’ll hit it around then.
Mayor Nagin just said that this is going to be bigger than Katrina and “the mother of all storms”.

yeh me too...
the last few hours have really changed the look of the storm.
It’s come together very quickly and its HUGE…a 900 mile wide storm.
It’s clearly not the one to ride out.

traffic
we have relatives who thought the same thing when katrina was coming “middle of the night there wont be traffic” well there was hours and hours worth.
so dont be surprised if you get stuck in a standstill

You know
I know it’s been nice having Marlon Byrd’s red-hot bat in the middle of the order lately, but I think I might try him at leadoff if I where Ron. He’s got some speed, and he’s aslo got a 384 OBP. I think I’d move him to leadoff and move Davis up behind Blalock (yes, that’s back-to-back lefties, but Davis actually has a reverse split – OPS 983 against LHP in the Majors this year).

Weaver...
I don’t have the stats to back it up, but it seems like he always pitches well agaimst the Rangers. I can’t really remember a game when we hit him very well.
his career ERA against us is 2.26
and this year it is 0.69
so yeah, you are right

The trouble with finesse pitchers is that unless they pitch for your team, it's frustrating to watch

The vests are fine, but it really bugs me when you can see the gray torso on the t-shirt. It’s more noticeable with a red/gray shirt than the Rangers’ gray/blue.

Those wide gaps of random juxtaposition (and the brain’s insistence at forming some kind of connection, even if unsuccessful) are very useful. I touched on the topic in a presentation I gave on post-social epistemic pedagogies at a conference in February…wearing a fake mustache.

Just for fun
I looked up my pre-season predictions. I posted these in my blog the day before the season started. Ha ha ha.
Wins – 82
Most runs scored in a game – 17
HR leader – Josh Hamilton
RBI leader – Marlon Byrd
Stolen base leader – Ian Kinsler
Pitcher with most wins – Vicente Padilla
Saves for C.J. Wilson – 28
All-Star representative – Ian Kinsler
Biggest surprise – Jason Botts
September call-up with the most impact – Eric Hurley
I fully expect ridicule for my Botts prediction.

If your Botts
surprise was that he’d be hitting at the Mendoza Line in Japan, then that prediction was spot on.
I predicted 82 wins before the season as well…
What's the rumpus?
I AM pretty close on a lot of these...
RIGHT
I don’t think we’ve scored more than 17 runs (Boston) this season.
Josh IS the HR leader (29).
Kins has most stolen bases (26) AND he went to the All-Star game
Padilla has the most wins (12)
WRONG
Josh leads RBI
CJ only had 24 saves
Botts…was a bust :(
Hurley came up BEFORE September

He got him on the leg. Just brushed him, but he got him. Pretty goddamn clear.

I meant he didn't tag in time when he went back to home

Why so serious?
Looked like he brushed him on the leg the first time
And then for sure when he dived back in.

OK...the ONLY, and I mean ONLY possible defense for the ump is
the angle they showed that sort of gave the umpire’s view…the ump might have thought he got his right hand on the plate. It’s flimsy but I can’t think of any other possibility…
