I dropped this in the morning thread...
but this is an exert from Kikuchi interview after the whole 20 teams (Japanese and MLB0 met with him…
-comments on the impression left by both leagues after the meeings
"I thought both were great, and I want to go to both. Japan’s development system is gentle, and in America there is the stepped system of rookie ball, 1A, 2A,3A and the Majors"
-you met a major leaguer
"He had an aura of playing in the best place in the world."
-what will the deciding factor be?
"I can comfortable play in either league. In Japan, there won’t be any problems with food or training. Even in the Majors, there are teams offering to provide a translator, so there’s no uneasiness. If I go to America, I believe the teams that said ‘don’t worry’. My manager and parents both said ‘we’ll leave it up to you’, so I want to come to a conclusion without regret.
Anyone want to guess who that major leaguer was?
And
Rangers: sent Jim Colborn and lefty Derek Holland; espoused the team’s development system and let Kikuchi ask questions.
Sounds like Texas tried a personal approach ans attempted to answer all of his questions in a first hand manner. Maybe Holland was a good choice.

in this particular affiliate. The corporate office (where I work) laid off 80 something in April. At this point all of our affiliates have had at least one layoff and most have had two.

I don’t get why chicks dig him – not good-looking and skinny.

But I really like him because he’s genuinely a hilarious dude who plays up his celebrity with a wink.

I don’t care about him at all usually. I just think he’s really funny in those commercials. I don’t watch SNL but I hear he’s hilarious when he hosts.

This umpiring is maybe the worst I have ever seen in a postseason.
Two blown calls in 2 plays. Swisher was picked off 2nd and then he didn’t even leave early.

When Tim McCarver is killing the umpires for blowing plays — and for making a call on a play where the ump clearly didn’t see what happened — that’s bad.

I love how they go on for 5 minutes about the blown call on the tag
But McCarver clams up and Joe Buck makes apologies for the blown call on the pickoff.
This is getting ridiculous.
The other night when it was in extra innings, I counted 5 or 6 times they said “the winning run is on insert base” when the Yanks were up, and not once did they say it for the Angels.
Ugh.

On the pickoff...
…it is a little more understandable. It was a bang-bang play, and on pickoffs, unless the runner is pretty clearly out, the runner usually gets the benefit of the doubt.
The appeal play at third, though…that was just weird. I have no idea why they called Swisher out there.
by Adam J. Morris on Oct 20, 2009 8:36 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I'm not criticizing the umps, my point is Buck and McCarver and the rest of their team seem to have a bias
Both replays clearly showed the umps blew it. But only one do they harp on over and over.

by Adam J. Morris on Oct 20, 2009 8:44 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Well, they were right......
…….on saturday night, the Yankees were the home team. So it was the “winning” run on base when the Yankees were batting. When the Angels were batting, it was the “go-ahead” run on base. That’s how it’s properly said in baseball. If the Yankees had scored, they would have won. If the Angels had scored, they would have gone ahead.

What's the oddest class you ever took?
I took a Women’s Studies course that had an old B&W pic in the textbook of a woman crouching over a mirror examining her vagina. Course was cancelled due to lack of interest so I never did get to find out how that dang thang works.

The philosophy 101 course I took there
was a course to learn how to be an athiest. That was the guy’s intention – turn everybody into athiests and brow beat the resistors into submission and humility. Higher Ed is often a complete joke.

my philosophy course was
taught by an old Harvard burnout that was pretty much stoned the entire time. No tests, no book just discussion. Lots of logic and twisted words and ideas. Hell of a cool class. If you spoke and got the teacher to have to back down or trapped him in circular logic, you got an A. If not you got a C.

that's a long ways west
I guess I could head out that way if I wanted to go nowhere.
i need to find a mom and pop burger place. diners and drive-ins show did a place in garland. i don’t know what it was called. I usually frequent Scotty P’s or Mooyah for a decent burger.

well, it might make for a fun day trip to west TX with the wife. I’d have to figure out some other excuse as well though. What else is around Jacksboro.

sounds solid
I usually dump a 1/2 cup of my homemade BBQ sauce, salt, pepper, and a shot of spicy mustard in the burgers (BBQ has spicy mustard in it). Let them sit in the fridge while the fire warms then throw them on the cooler side of the grill.
Juciest I’ve ever had by far. I might have to try yours though. Sounds tasty

You know, I must admit seeing ARod destroy his “unclutch” criticisms this postseason has been kinda fun.

Arod has played great
but it’s been about their pitching. and since they are winning other players like Tex, who has pretty much sucked, aren’t getting the unclutch label. winning solves everything.
but, if the Yankees don’t win a WS, Arod will still be looked at as a failure

But he had 2 swinging K’s and a groundout. There was an “injury delay” in the inning though, not sure who/what it was for.
