Nothing's right, I'm torn

Kind of want Detroit to win for HFA, but I’m afraid of what they may do to us

by chief on Oct 5, 2011 6:27 AM CDT reply actions  

But you're not afraid of what the Yankees might do to us?

The Yankees have lit up Detroit twice now and scored 5 runs in 9 innings on Verlander. Only Scherzer had a good game and he’s a roller coaster… he’s given up almost as many dongs as Colby… and he gets to play in Comerica.

Their pitching was better than Detroit's this year.

Both starting and especially bullpen. Yankees have the best bullpen in the playoffs.

Their defense is also better… as is their base running.

It's just gut factor for me

On paper, we should be able to plow through Detroit, but somehow that never happens.

by chief on Oct 5, 2011 7:46 AM CDT up reply actions  

My point is this...

I want Home Field. If that meant we play NY, so be it. If that means we play DET, so be it.

But people who act like the Tigers are some impossible mountain to climb are both overrating the Tigers and underrating the Yankees.

And if you wanna go on gut factor, my gut tells me that you never want to play the freaking New York Yankees in the playoffs. Weird things happen for the Yankees in the playoffs.

I feel like Detroit has the better best players, though not by much

Verlander scares me more than Sabathia (although that may just be hype, looking at their stats), and Cabrera scares me more with the bat than Granderson or Cano (or A-Rod). That said, the Yankees have more very good players, so I think I’m coming around to rather facing Detroit, especially with HFA.

Anger logic's so great I kinda forget what we saw in regular logic in the first place.

by colonialbob on Oct 5, 2011 8:07 AM CDT up reply actions  

They don't.

Verlander isn’t much better than CC. The Yankees offense and bullpen are better than the Tigers.

Cano Granderson Gardner Teixeira Martin Jeter Arod Swisher vs Cabrera Martinez Peralta Delmon Avila Jackson

My point was Verlander > CC and Cabrera > Cano or Granderson

I know the Yankees are deeper, that’s pretty obvious. But in a shorter series (like the playoffs), having the best individual player can even some of those things out. After looking at it, though, CC appears to have been better than Verlander this year (slightly higher WAR in less innings, which is the opposite of what I would’ve expected).

Anger logic's so great I kinda forget what we saw in regular logic in the first place.

by colonialbob on Oct 5, 2011 8:14 AM CDT up reply actions  

Eh

that’s really hard to say. One reason Verlander had a low BABIP (and thus an ERA lower than his FIP) is a high popup rate and low line drive rate. Sabathia’s metrics tend the opposite way… and those two batted-ball factors are something pitchers can control, to a certain extent.

CC looks like a Fat Fuck right now. Looks like he is back on the two boxes of cereal each morning training program.

Verlander is a lot better than CC but CC’s surrounding cast is much better.

I’m not afraid of either team but for several reasons I’d rather play the Tigers than the MF Yankees.

Parks Rangers Top 10:
Off the top of my head: Profar, Perez, Martin, Guzman, Ramirez, Olt, #TheLegend, Jackson, Perez, Mazara

Link to the BP Chat with Parks

by Jobu. on Oct 5, 2011 6:47 AM CDT reply actions  

Also
Jason Parks: More upside than that. If Profar develops as planned, he is going to hit for average, with OBP skills and at least average pop (10-15). Factor in his above-average defensive projections and Profar could be a 5-7 WAR type.

Or sighting:

Or (DENTON!!): Going forward, pick one: Matt Harrison or Derek Holland?

Jason Parks: Tough call. I’ll go with Harrison. He’s reading books now. The future is his.

by Jobu. on Oct 5, 2011 7:02 AM CDT up reply actions  

How does the hitting transfer into a triple-slash?

.290/.360/.430? Seems like were the current run environment to continue, that’d be…a 110-120 wRC+? Place that at 2B/SS, throw in 5-10 fielding runs and that’s kind of cool.

For my Mustang brethren? Anything

We already knew this

Jason Parks: I wrote an OFP on AKins over the summer which pegged his future at the all-star level. Long way to go, but he has progressed in the last year. Akins might be the best all-around athlete in the Rangers’ system, with 70 speed, a 65/70 arm, and tons of raw power. Out of the box (and to 1B), Akins is a 4.2 -4.3 type, but his second-gear is absolutely incredible. D-1 football recruit that is starting to learn how to play baseball. He could be a beast.
Jason Parks: Sure. It’s very easy, and with his extension, the 97 looks even faster than that to the hitters. Neftali Feliz might have the easiest FB velocity I’ve ever seen, but Moore is in the discussion.
Or (DENTON!!!): How do you explain Ian Kinsler? He was never seen as a very toolsy guy when he rose through the minors. But his power/speed/defense combination is among the best in all of baseball.

Jason Parks: Huge scouting success and failure at the same time. It’s hard to fault those that missed it, while at the same time you have to give Mike Grouse a ton of credit for finding the diamond.
Or (Dallas): Does Neil Ramirez start a game for the 2012 Rangers? Does Martin Perez?

Jason Parks: Both will start at some point in ‘12. Unless one of them is traded in the off-season, which I wouldn’t rule out.

The other thing is Sea P prospect Taijuan Walker got a little too much love for my liking.

by Jobu. on Oct 5, 2011 10:45 AM CDT up reply actions  

Also
Or (Dallas): Will Mike Olt’s bat play at first base — and if so, should the Rangers trade him as he nears major-league readiness to a team which will draw more value out of his great third base defense? Beltre doesn’t appear like he’s going anywhere anytime soon.

Jason Parks: Olt could be a nice trade chip in ’12 for the Rangers, as his best position is 3B and the Rangers are obviously set at the position. If moved off 3B, the pressure on the offensive production increases, with 1B or LF as options on the diamond.
Or (DENTON, BITCHES!): Elvis Andrus is the __th best defensive shortstop in baseball.

Jason Parks: one of the best
Or (DENTON!!): Matt Harrison’s K/BB ratio in the last three months: 3.7/1. Is his breakout real? Can Harrison be a good 3/solid 2?

Jason Parks: Solid #3; he’s basically showing his sustainable ceiling as we speak. As I’ve been saying for a while, Harrison has great stuff; even better than Holland. He just couldn’t put it together. Harrison has always been in his head, not showing much fortitude in the face of failure. He was a different arm this season. He stopped nibbling and started trusting his stuff. He took a major step forward.
frtitans28 (Eugene): Is Matt West likely to become Tanner Scheppers 2.0 (hopefully without the injuries)?

Jason Parks: With two 70 (at least) pitches in the arsenal and good feel for command, yes West has that kind of potential. Just saw him the other day and he was spotting his breaking ball to either side of the plate. It was very impressive. No-brainer 40-man roster addition this off-season.
James (Dallas): Is Cody Buckel any more than a back end starter? Seems pretty advanced, does he have stuff that will play in the mlb?

Jason Parks: lacks crazy ceiling, but could develop into more than a back-end type. Deep arsenal and very heady with his baseball thoughts.

Because there will be no competing NLCS that night.

Sunday will be a day game and an evening game.

Tuesday will be a night game with no competing NLCS.

Wednesday & Thursday are anyone’s guess. If Arizona were to make it, then they would be night games and the NLCS would be west coast late night. But Arizona is unlikely to make it.

Saturday after will be a night game, no NLCS.

Sunday after would be a game 7 and therefore very likely prime time.

That could have changed though. Ever since Erickson took over, injuries have played a huge part on whether ASU will succeed or not. Never have I seen ASU suffer so many injuries to major-contributing players.

I can't believe Gerhart isn't going to play.

Tape it up and deal with it. Tello is back after wimping out and quitting, so he at least adds depth to our depleted OL. Simmons is also back, but who knows how he’ll play, since he’s been out for a few weeks.

I fully expect...

You’re right, Jordan isn’t a great QB, but he’s ceratinly better than who you’ll see on Saturday. And I’m really concerned with how our defense just rolled over in the second half against UW. I was hoping we’d be able to hang in the south this year, but I think it’s still a year too early. I think we’re going to need another season of Pac 12 recruiting to be competitive for the conference.

I'm surprised how Utah has turned out.

I thought they would be able to hang throughout their first season, but so far I’ve been wrong. There is still half the season left, so anything can happen. The Pac-12 South is in ASU’s hands, but I have serious doubts they can play up to their potential the rest of the way.

I'm certainly a little worried right now...

we have ASU, Pitt, and Cal the next 3 weeks, then it gets a bit easier. I expected 8-4 this year and to be there with ASU for the south, but right now I’m thinking 7-5 in our first year is more likely. Wynn going down doesn’t help matters either, but heh, as you guys know everyone has their injuries.

That game (with TCU) should have been played and I thought

it was chickenshit that we played Nevada instead.

There’s every possibility they were dodging you because they knew Tech was already going to be playing a beast of a schedule with several very young players so why add somebody else perceived as tough?

Don’t take this the wrong way…I don’t think there’s going to be a lot of difference between TCU & Nevada this year – Nevada is going to win 7-8 games this year in a crappy conference…which is where I see this year’s TCU team.

Why not play TCU instead of Nevada? It was a miscalculation by our administration and I hope we play you every year in a home n home (maybe put the game over at JerryWorld) in the near future.

Still, June Jones is 1-8 versus GP, so this isn’t really anything to write home about, other than TCU has 2/3 underclassmen while SMU returned the most seniors in the nation. Plus, we did beat their ass 5 years in a row. Lots of angry seniors.

Coaches get sore about stuff like that.

A Navy fan posted this on EDSBS last fall: http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/2010/11/12/1809900/paul-johnson-vs-randy-edsall

In 2002 UConn played Navy in Annapolis during Paul Johnson’s first year as head coach of Navy. Navy went 2-10 that year, including this shutout loss to Connecticut. Of course, 2-10 was an improvement over the 1-20 record Navy had the previous two years. But I digress.

After the clock hit zeroes, PJ and Edsall met at midfield. While shaking hands, Edsall smugly said “Don’t worry, I won’t share the tape with anyone,” implying he had found out how to shut down the triple option offense. But revenge is a dish best served by a heartless coach after the jump.



Fast forward to 2006. Navy is playing at UConn in the 2nd of the scheduled 4 game home-and-home series started in 2002. At this point Navy was coming off three straight bowl games while UConnhad gone 5-6 in 2005. I could go into detail of the horrors experienced by Huskies that day. But to make a long story short, Navy amassed 605 yards of offense, gained 464 of them on the ground at an 8.3 yards per carry average, and stomped UConn 41-17.

At the post game handshake, PJ grabbed Edsall’s hand leaned in and said “Don’t worry, I won’t share the tape with anyone.”

Yes, he held onto that for 4 years.

Yes he made him pay.

Yes Edsall had UConn buy out of the remaining two games left in the scheduled series.

The 2009 Tech / A&M game was on Big 12 Classics last night.

That was the game where Potts took back over for Sheffield.

Potts had lost his job three weeks previous (we trailed New Mexico at home) to Sheffield who stepped in and rallied the team to defeat New Mexico (outscored them 34-14) in second half, gave a thrashing to KState and then went to Lincoln and defeated Nebraska but broke his foot.

Tech was a 21.5 favorite over A&M but Taylor Potts got his starting job back…..oh vomit….we were down 28-14 at half. Potts threw two picks, the Tech crowd started chanting “No More Potts!!!” and his ass was stapled to the bench yet again.

We lost 52-30 to those bastards at home…thank you, Taylor Potts.

Quite simply the worst QB I ever saw at Tech get significant playing time in the Leach Era.

i would have liked to have been more impressed too, but dont be so quick to throw away this phone just because it does look different. this is one of the best phones out there you can get.

It's not just me.

It’s being labeled as the New “Old” phone.

Now, the design is great, but those internals would be SICK with a bigger screen. After having my Evo for over a year, it’s damn near impossible to think of going back to that screen size.

I agree, the internal upgrades are awesome. I’m sticking with Android, however.

and thats fine, and im kind of talking to everyone who was so quick to jump on apples back for not changing the design.

yes, design is important, and yes, the upgrades are not as drastic as they were from 3Gs to 4. but this is a really good phone, and the upgrades (plus iOS5) make it one of if not the best phone out there right now.

that being said, this phone will be quickly outdated more than likely. but, such is the case in technology these days. worse than buying a new car – you can still drive one thats 10 years old. you cant do that with technology.

I've had my Evo since last June.

Still going strong and it still rivals all the phones out there. 1080p HD video, 8MP camera, super fast processor, all that.

The only thing that is lacking is a Super AmoLED screen. Which is why I’ll probably upgrade to the Epic Touch in the spring.

You pay approximately a billion dollars a year for the service plan, the $100 isn't that much, relatively.

If you don’t want the next last 8 months of this phone to be slow as well, go for the fastest one available.

that’s what I was thinking….the reason I’m in this particular pickle with my 3G is that it’s obsolete. I don’t need a 4S because it’s so much faster and whatnot, but my fear is that in October of 2013 when I’m logging on to LSB to high five all my peeps because the Rangers are creating a dynasty that my phone will be cripplingly slow

The 4S on AT&T is supposed to be better than typical 3G

But it depends on the local AT&T infrastructure. I was hoping the 4S on Verizon would work on 4G LTE network, but no dice. I cant wait another year for the 5, so I’ll switch from AT&T and my 3GS to Verizon and a 4S.

He shared this in the PGT
I’ll keep you guys posted about what is happening. William turned one month old yesterday. We decided to take him in to the doctor this morning because we noticed yesterday that he had stopped using his arms and legs volitionally. He would still grasp if you touched his palm, and he still arches his feet, but his limbs are basically limp. His doctor sent us over here because she couldn’t get a reflexive response from him and his latch while feeding is getting weaker.

We don’t know anything yet, but the scenarios we’ve been told are not good.

But no updates since then.

I smoked for about five years in my twenties and tried to quit a couple of times,

and the final straw for me was bumming a brand (may have been Pall Mall) that had a really different and foul taste. Since I was out of my own and literally had a bad taste in my mouth, I decided to quit for a bit, now going on 14 years. Now I get mildly disgusted at the smell.

But I never get cravings or anything like that, nor am I more on edge.

I also don’t have an addictive personality, so that helps. I forget to take medicine all the time, even the ones that make me feel great!

Nothing, since he cancelled the class we were supposed to be introduced to it

We’re just building a basic website and styling it with CSS. It’s the pre req class for Dreamweaver/Flash/etc.

both departments are doing the written followed by the PT tests

it’s been my experience that if there’s a lot of people testing (more than 150, which I guarantee there are), that is a 5ish hour affair. Plus they’re 45 minutes apart with traffic…one dept test is at 0800, but not sure what time the other is. If it’s in the afternoon, I can do it (2 PT tests in the same day is easy!)

One time, my mom was waiting for a flight to Washington DC, and she sat next to a nice young man with whom she struck up a conversation. Before you know it, she’s showing him baby pictures of all of us and talking his ear off about us.

The nice young man? Former Redskins tight end Stephen Alexander, who as it turns out had just been drafted and was flying from his home in Dallas to report to Redskins training camp.

Oh.. since we're telling stories

Girl left her wallet at La Fiesta a couple nights ago. She realized it was missing the next day and figured it was likely left on the table there.. so she went back and they wouldn’t let her go to the patio area and look herself.. it was closed.. not sure why that matters.

Well they didn’t have it apparently. She went back later that night and looked and there it was. Someone took $170 out of it though so that’ll really put us in a bind since we’re pretty much check to check as is.. They have cameras but the manager said they weren’t working.

Then they get the long stick/leash thing, and wrap it around it’s neck. Obviously, the dog gets upset. While the dog is held immobile by the stick, the cop then shoots it from point blank range.

Some context here.. which is needed:
Read the link posted by HardToImpress… the “owner” of the dog had previously been convicted of animal abuse. If that’s the case, and his current five dogs were also abused, it would take very little provocation to set one off.
Another neighbor reports the dog chased her husband.

    Mays said he has four other dogs – three pit bulls and a mastiff. He said he did not register Cammie because doing so "slipped my mind." The other four are registered, he said.

Ok, I found video of one of the calls Patterson talked about in the TCU/SMU game.

Video is at the top, it’s the 2nd highlight in the montage, the first is the TD that resulted from it the play after.

You can clearly see the ref doesn’t throw the flag until after the INT was made, and Verrett the CB was at least 4-5 feet IN FRONT of the receiver. If there was a PI or defensive holding earlier, the ref waited until after the play was over to call it.

V. Windows-based tools under BootCamp
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp
Apple has released a product called BootCamp, available for MacOS 10.4 and higher, which allows the Intel-based Macs to load a full version of WinXP or above, and run Windows applications at “full speed.” Upon boot-up, the user chooses to boot into MacOS or into Windows.

I was talking about when I have an issue and people come through with vague advice like “turn that frown, upside down” or “pull through, dig deep, find your strength.”

It's probably because you can tell when most people aren't sincere about it.

Which is probably why you question whether you should call in the first place. Not to say you don’t mean it, but if you’re uncomfortable with it, then you shouldn’t probably call when the written word should suffice.

If it's someone you are very close to.

Go to them and be there for them.

If it’s someone that you are friends with… but not in the inner circle… contact them via email/FB/flowers/card giving them your sympathy and let them know they are in your thoughts/prayers and you are there for them if they need anything.

My in-laws sent me a potted plant when my grandmother (who I was very close to died)

I still have it.

I’m not super close to my in-laws but it reminds me of my grandmother and I still have it in my office.

You have to sit out if you transfer to another D1 though

I guess he did lose that in the NC game

by Texas Jihad on Oct 5, 2011 4:46 PM CDT up reply actions  

So he'd have 3 to play 2

He could transfer to a D1 without suffering too much then. I’d be a little surprised if any decent program takes him though.

Anger logic's so great I kinda forget what we saw in regular logic in the first place.

by colonialbob on Oct 5, 2011 4:47 PM CDT up reply actions  

I believe he would have to sit out a season and use the redshirt

where he could instead start playing pretty much immediately at a D2

"Life's tough... It's even tougher if you're stupid." - John Wayne

by Texas Jihad on Oct 5, 2011 4:51 PM CDT up reply actions  

Right

But if he really wants to go to a D1 school, at least he has that redshirt year available. It raises his chances of staying in D1 from basically none to small but real.

Actually, the way this league scores...

they’re even.

On any given week, though, I’m far more confident in Flacco than Orton.
