Zubov

That sucker needs to hurry back. The new second line would be pretty interesting. It doesn’t seem like it’s ever quite worked to put Modano with another center, but Richards is different from other guys they’ve tried, and Modano is pretty much willing to do whatever it takes to help the team at this point and would have to enjoy the break from third line duty. I sure hope that Brunnstrom can be a top six caliber player at the end of the year. I think he’d have to be for them to compete with Detroit.

Definitely should be interesting. Hopefully those young D won’t have sophomore slumps.

Hi kids

Everyone ready for tonight’s debacle?

I’m actually pretty excited about going to tomorrow’s game though – we are going to be right behind the Rangers dugout.

Ohh!

I was lucky enough to get tix like those from a season ticket holder once about three years ago, best seats ever! Of course, it had to start raining in the sixth and was pouring so bad there was water up to our ankles by the 7th, but they played the entire game. It would figure that the one time that I got great seats was the one time I halfway wishes I had seats higher up under an awning. Such is my life.

I didn't get a look

from any player, but I remember Loe giving everyone a staredown who started begging him for a ball on the way back to the dugout.

I would get annoyed with that as well.

If Loe was there…hm…I wonder if we were at the same game. My game was his first career save.

I wonder if it was the same game, too now ..

I think it was in August, against Baltimore when Sammy Sosa was with them. Me and my kid brother kept yelling out “waaaaaarning traaaaaaaaaaaack” everytime he came to hit, cus that is where all of his at-bats ended.

I believe that was the Johnny Oates retirement ceremony, Nolan rode around the field in a convertible with his widow, and the giveaway was Blalock/Teixeira weeble looking things, which I am starting at on my desk as we speak.

Sammy Sosa wasn't there when I was. He was only there last year.

But my game was the Johnny Oates and Blalock/Teixeira thing.

Haha

Sammy looked teeny tiny in that game, my jaw was on the floor.

That is funny that we were at the same game, particularly since I so rarely get up there to see games. It was my youngest brother’s first-ever MLB game. We stayed through the whole downpour, which of course ended right as the game did. I remember being amazed that Loe could even throw the ball, it was so rainy. I think he gave up a homer but the Rangers were so far ahead (I believe Delucci had hit a Grand Slam earlier in the game) that a solo homer didn’t matter much.

Me, too!

I think Tex also hit a HR that game, but it looked like he tried to check his swing and hit the ball anyways. He stood at the plate thinking it was foul until it was almost out then had to hurry up and start running. At least, I think it was that game. I went to three games that month, if I recall.

Nope

In the hospital, we bill you later, so we just give you whatever while you’re there and discharge you before you notice.

Unfortunately

you are correct.

If it ain’t the baserunning, it’s the starting pitching. If it ain’t that, it’s the bullpen. If it ain’t that it’s the defense….. and so on, ad nauseam.

I went to a game about 3 weeks ago (don’t remember who it was against) and I decided to buy the 6 dollar seat and go sit down behind 3rd base to try and get a foul ball. It’s the 5th inning, the Rangers were losing ,so I didn’t think about doing my normal sneak in behind the ushers, and well the usher told me I couldn’t sit down there because I didn’t have a ticket. There was maybe 100 people in the section, if that, and boy I was hot.

Someone from LSB

would have a lot more to talk about than that guy.

I think Josh was cutting him off there at the end, instead of waiting until the end of the inning per usual. Predictably Fortunately for him, Arias popped up on the next pitch. They had about covered the small talk, I think.
