ALCS / NLCS Open Thread

PrintBoth League Championship Series are happening today, after yesterday's ALCS Game 2 was postponed due to a complete lack of weather.
ALCS: Tigers at Rangers, Game 2, 3:19pm
Texas probably benefits most from yesterday's rainout; they get to spend the day at home, rather than loafing around in a hotel room on the road, and they get reliver Alexi Ogando back. Ogando pitched two innings in Game 1 and wouldn't have been available on Sunday, but will be ready to go if needed this afternoon. On the other hand, the Tigers get another day to rest up, including Delmon Young, who'll play after initially being left off the ALCS roster. The teams will fly to Detroit and play Game 3 tomorrow, so no travel day there - weather (or lack thereof) permitting, of course. Max Scherzer pitches for Detroit, Derek Holland for the Rangers.
NLCS: Cardinals at Brewers, Game 2, 7:05pm
The Brewers seem unstoppable right now. They are from Wisconsin and thus I loathe them - not the team, specifically, but the fact that people from Wisconsin get to sit back with smug Spaulding Smails smiles on their faces and watch all of their teams do well at everything. How's your NHL team doing, guys OH WAIT YOU DON'T HAVE ONE BECAUSE... BECAUSE, UM (runs off sobbing)
Shawn Marcum pitches for Milwaukee; for St. Louis, it'll be Edwin Jackson.

Stupid Fox and their blackouts
I can’t watch any television coverage of the ALCS… radio it is!
by ColossusOfRhode on Oct 10, 2011 3:41 PM EDT reply actions
... wait, why?
I thought playoffs = national coverage…?
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
I'm at work... no TV
Normally I watch baseball at work by streaming it on MLB.tv… but anything on Fox is blacked out by that. TBS let me at least listen to their audio (not that it was any good) and have my choice of camera angles. Fox gives me nothing.
Arguably, since I could go home and watch this on TV, I kind of see the point. But since Fox also blacks out all national games they cover, even when they don’t broadcast them in my area, they get a big thumbs down from me.

Yeah I realized you probably didn't have a TV around after posting that

WOOOO BASEBALL WOOOOO!!!!
AND DELMON IS BACK!!
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
Uhhh....
I swear that didn’t sound right.
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
What didn't sound right?
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
The National Anthem
Sound was going out or he sang it wrong or something…
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
Yeah, the sound was cutting out
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."

Now Game On
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
Joe Buck is like high or something
He was being kinda crazy.
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
It's like he is trying to joke around with Terry
Not really working.
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
Well when e was all like"WOW! The weather is just GLORIOUS!!!!!"

that really is like having 2 Dhs that was his only good quality in the field

For some reason
My brain completely filters out everything he says. It’s just a background noise.

Missed Hamilton's RBI
I was on a conference call. How bad was Delmon on that double that scored the Rangers’ run?
It wasn't terrible, he was just kinda...slow.

Washington must be a little ticked off.

Speaking of Washington...
It was just pointed out to me that he is the coach in Moneyball that Brad Pitt keeps calling “Wash.”

My sister was dating the manager of the local theater
My mom didn’t pay for a movie for probably five years.
they were both black?
I agree, body shape casting was horrid though. I had to tell my friend who that was.
Yeah he was 3rd base coach for the A's
Haven’t seen the movie. Is it any good?
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
I liked it... but you have to forget everything you might know about the 2002 A's
A story about the 2002 A’s with no Barry Zito or Miguel Tejada? That’s kind of wrong.
by ColossusOfRhode on Oct 10, 2011 5:03 PM EDT up reply actions
I've heard that the more you know about baseball, the less you like the movie
Especially if you know that team and that season.
Thought the ending kinda dragged
but the rest of it I enjoyed. I was disappointed they skipped over the draft, which was my favorite part of the book.
Yeah, pretty much
I mean, if they had made it a fictional account with the same story, it would have been much better.
But guess who beats the A’s in the end? That was satisfying.

What is going on now?
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
Ball hit Martinez, but Cabrera ran around and scored like the ball wasn't dead.
Both managers arguing.
WordUpThome: BOOM, HAND HUGGED
Tweet me! @jessicann713
Cabrera must have thought it was a wild pitch?
because if Martinez swung, it’d be strike 3 and he’d be out.
It was a checked swing
Ball bounced in the batters box, looked like it MAYBE brushed his pants at the ankle. Avila let the ball go thinking it was a HBP, Cabrera ran around from second and “scored.” Umpires eventually ruled it a HBP and put the baserunners on first and second.
Doesn’t matter now, 3 run homer.

Ball hit the ground and bounced off Martinez.
In the replay.

I’m cheering for the Tigers. The Rangers are so annoying.
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
too many friends in Arlington
One of whom is likely at today’s game. Cheering for the Rangers is almost required to stay friends with them, except when they’re playing the Twins. At which point, I usually just get mocked.
Hmm … perhaps I need different friends…
Now if he had an actual mustache
He wouldn’t have pitched like shit.

That’s just part of his game. He does that shit to try and get in the other team’s head, and it works.
It’s just a show. Did you see the pictures of him shaking hands with Mauer during BP before Mauer’s debut at first base? He’s still friendly with everyone, he just does a lot of shit talk during the games because that’s just what he does.

Wait for it... wait for it...
I also think Barry Bonds should be in the HOF.
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
Just for consistency
Should other roiders be allowed into the HOF?
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
Well, I feel bad for Barry because he would have been a HOFer either way
He was an extremely good baseball player. It’s sad to see him entirely dismissed by so many when he really was extremely talented.
Almost everyone took steroids during his era. No one else was Barry Bonds…
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
To say
Most players were roiding, they don’t all deserve the hall. McGuire? Eiii… No. Maybe Sammy Sosa… Hard to say.
Barry Bonds only roided for a brief time at the term of the century. Not that I think that makes it OKAY, but most of his accomplishments were based on just his talent. He had a lot of talent. I feel bad that so many people refuse to recognize the natural talent he actually had. Oh well…
Ken Griffey Jr. was always my more favorite MLB son anyway. ;)

If had just retired at the time he started taking steroids
He would have been a HOF player.
I personally think it’s a little sad he’s become the martyr for the whole era. Would he have been HR king? Probably not. Would he have been a HOF player? Yes.
I guess I can understand why people hate him and thing he doesn’t belong in the HOF. I just actually feel bad for him, because he was a HOF player even without the drugs, but everyone was doing it, so…
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
I honestly think strongly Barry Bonds deserves to be in the HOF
He was a HOF payer before he even started taking roids.
He should go into the hall of fame, but on his plaque it needs to clearly say he was plagued by the steroids scandal and ended up becoming the face of it.
I just don’t think baseball can entirely ignore this. Come on. EVERYONE (almost) took steroids. No one was Berry Bonds.
"It happened in the moment, and it happened." - Carlos Gomez
I think Barry Bonds should go the way of other cheaters
Such as Pete Rose.
Sure, great raw talent, best player of their eras. But they both sullied the game and neither deserves to be honored in the Hall of Fame.

This reminds me… my 1991 bobblehead set arrived.
26 bobbleheads takes up a lot more space than I had planned so they are currently on an old TV stand staring out the window because I kind of like the creepy effect when you try to look into my apartment from the outside. Last night two drunk people were standing outside my window…
“Whoa, dude, that’s a lot of fucking bobbleheads.”
“Whoa, man, that’s serious.”
“I think they’re all Twins.”
“Like there’s two of them?”
“No, like Minnesota.”
“That’s fucked up. Why would anyone have that many Twins bobbleheads.”
Why indeed…
by ColossusOfRhode on Oct 10, 2011 9:25 PM EDT up reply actions
I would rig up some device
so I could make their heads all bobble in unison if people were outside talking like that. Make the drunks freak out.

We had this VHS tape when I was growing up for the Twins 25th anniversary
The ‘65 team is talking to the “current” (i.e. 1985) team. And they’re almost patronizing about how the young guys have never been to the post-season. Thus, as a kid I had this false impression that the ‘65 team was a bunch of snobs. After ’87, whenever I watched that tape I’d think, “Just you wait, Harmon Killebrew and Bob Allison. Puckett and Hrbek are going to surpass you.”
Only later did I watch the tape again and realize that what the kid in me saw as patronizing, the adult in me saw as encouraging.

you take a bag of pre made salad mix, and a bottle of dressing. then, you go to the sink, take a handful of the salad mix, pour some dressing on it while it’s in your hand… and eat it… whatever is left, you run down the disposal…. no mess to clean up… no dishes… no utensils… you don’t even need a napkin, just splash some water on youf face, dry with your t-shirt… and voila… lunch is done!

What we call Chai here
or sometimes Chai Latte, is what would be called Masala Chai in India (basically, spiced tea). The “Latte” part means milk or cream is added.
It’s good stuff, I agree.

…Jeri had accused Jack Ryan of asking her to perform sexual acts with him in public,31 and in sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, and Paris.2932 Jeri Ryan described one as “a bizarre club with cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling.”33 Jack Ryan denied these allegations. Although Jeri Ryan only made a brief statement,34 and she refused to comment on the matter during the campaign, the document disclosure led Jack Ryan to withdraw his candidacy;3536 his main opponent, Barack Obama, then won the 2004 United States Senate election in Illinois.Wiki

It was the Playtex "Cross your heart" 18 hour bra
Hughes had his engineers design a seamless underwire brassiere, a breakthrough in bra science to lift Russell’s 38-D breasts, leaving no visible support lines to interrupt the under-blouse contour of her bosom. It was the first practical “lift and separate” push-up bra, but Russell later said she did not wear the uncomfortable contraption during filming. Instead she wore her own bras, adding a layer of tissue paper over the cups to eliminate unsightly support lines. Hughes, despite directing the picture himself, never knew the difference.
