Not really fast food...

But the best burger I have ever had is at Spanky’s here in Lubbock. The Bacon Swiss Burger is heaven on a bun, mix that with the cheese sticks and you can die a happy man.

by Zegarek88 on Jun 10, 2009 6:23 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yep

Nothing better than Spanky’s cheese sticks and a cup of ranch. I hear that the lady who opened Spanky’s owns a restaurant in the DFW that uses the same recipe for their cheese sticks. I have no idea if that’s true or not but it’d be great for Metroplexers to try them out.

Still one of the most popular spots for students and residents alike and voted the best burger/local shop in the city almost annually. They’ve done some renovations in the past year, new flatscreen HDTV’s, they sealed off the upstairs and installed air conditioning, and best of all they now accept debit and credit instead of cash only.

tonights useless stats

while we wait for the rain delay

with Hamilton (35 games)
21-14 5.8 runs/gm 5.2 RA/gm
 
without Hamilton (23 games)
12-11 4.2 runs/gm 4.4 RA/gm

Also, Ian Kinsler since May 9… 27 games .208/.333/.434

Definitely not MVP numbers. Not even allstar numbers.

Probably

but I can see him moving up to Frisco by next season, barring more injuries. I think they put him on the same timeline as Feliz/Holland. Spend plenty of time at each level before moving into the pen. 2012 is probably about right. He really is going to have to find some consistency, though. This up/down crap that he is pulling has got to be frustrating for everyone watching him.

You can disregard that statement. In fact, disregard everything I typed. I’m freakin’ tired, can’t focus and am stuck at work while a storm rages on outside my window. On top of all that, the Rangers aren’t going to get to play until about 9 because a lake has fallen on Arlington.

Let’s do this…Main won’t be here until ’11 at the earliest but likely ’12 barring further injuries.

seems underrated around here. I think a couple of the articles about his mechanics have over influenced the herd.

I've read Trip's

and he says his arm action bothers him, however, I’ve read others who say it won’t be much of a problem.

So with that said, I am excited about him because of his high ceiling, but I’ll reserve my judgement after a couple of pro seasons.

by jdh90 on Jun 10, 2009 8:18 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

yea, if anything, Purke is about as much upside as you can have in HS lefty

He’s not one of those kids who came out firing bullets in HS, but slowly built himself up to being a power pitcher, and still has room to grow. That usually bodes well for his arm. Also, I could see him continue to build off that and be a lefty who consistently throws in the mid 90’s, up from his 90-92 slot, and with his ability to spin a breaking pitch well, thats about as good as it gets in terms of high upside HS kids. He’s not a lock to develop like that, and the variables are always stacked against any draft pick, but if you wanna talk about prospects with the most upside in our system, he’ll be right behind Perez in my book and right there with Holland and Feliz, putting him somwhere in the 4th-6th in our prospect spectrum, should be right where Scheps goes

It probably wouldn't faze me too much.

This window I’m sitting by…it would be very difficult for a car to come flying through it without going through other parts of the building first. I am invincible. Plus this building was built in like 1918 or something and they build stuff to last.

I was joking at first because they normally make a big deal out of nothing, but it’s beginning to look a bit apocalyptical out there.

It’s got such great architecture, and restaurants and shopping,beautiful parks and culture. I had no idea how beautiful it was until I spent the last week here exploring. It’s truly a first rate city along with NYC and San Fran. I think I may even like it more. It reminds me of San Fran without all the homeless.

His stuff is still very good.

The control lapses bother me, but the way he’s being handled right now bothers me and I think it’s hurting him long term.

Just as he starts getting comfortable as a starter (Phil Hughes over his last 3 starts: 18 innings, 21 k’s, 3 bb’s, 3.5 ERA, 0.94 WHIP) they jerk him back into the ‘pen and promptly don’t pitch him at all for like 8 days.

Guys he prolly literally (and I mean literally in the literal, non-asanine sense, Sobchak) hadn’t even heard of 2 hours prior.

And yet, he bloviated incessantly on what to the newcomer would seem like very detailed, semi-firsthand “observations.”

He's been pretty bad for a while now.

He says some things that just make me cringe.

Talking about the Strasburg pick and the money he’s gonna get Gammons went on a nonsensical bitter old man “Back in the good old days” rant that made me think his body had been taken over by Joe Morgan’s brain.

Chris Davis will be fine. Relax.

Lineup

Why haven’t we gone back to the Andrus 2 hole, Young 3 hole lineup that was working so much better when Hamilton was DL’ed the first time?

Of course you can.

Just within a rational perspective that acknowledges the success ours is currently having.

Pretty ominous storm hit Plano/Parker area

but didn’t have much oooomph to it.

Perfectly still outside but very green with low lying clouds and serious fucking lightning lurking with sirens wafting in the background.

Nothing to it but some wind and a pretty nice rain shower but it looked like one of the more bad-ass mf storms I’ve seen on approach in a very long while.
