You answered your own question: a shitty one. A very, very shitty one.

If I lived in Oakland, I’d go to A’s games all the time. Every single person in the stands looks like an amiable lunatic. Those are my people.

Give ‘em hell, man.

This is really, really awesome. But yeah, I’m a little envious. The only time I ever had seats that good was at a Sharks/Isles game when I was a kid.

Old enough to pee, old enough for me.

I’m watching the game, and I was thinking the same thing. This team (no jinx) is hell on skates. Enough of this noise.

Ninth.

Oh Jesus. + 1

Well said. Whatever his intentions might have been, it’s completely pig-headed to just discount the results of other, identical “rescue missions” or whatever because you have CONVICTIONS.

Their pitching’s really not that bad. They’re not going to score many runs, I don’t think, but you’re right, they should be watchable, at least.

Shhh. Let the coastal ninnies have their delusions. Keeps things cheaper for the rest of us.

I say they win 73. Pitching’s not that bad. But I feel for you; it’s gonna be a lean couple of years at GABP.

Baseball. And several boilermakers.

Venditte can switch mid-inning, but he has to designate which hand he’s throwing with at the beginning of the AB, and switch hitters have to do the same. I think they’re each allowed one mid-AB change.

Well, Kurkjian’s a twit, but you make a good point. We could do with a fair bit less rhapsodizing. (Although, honestly, is there anything better than drinking a beer at a ballgame as the sun goes down?)

You know, I find both basketball and football insanely boring, on the whole, but I don’t piss and moan about it.

I’ve read that snus greatly increases your risk of pancreatic cancer, which - I mean, if there’s one cancer I don’t want, it’s that.

You do remember that your guys just won a Super Bowl with the dessicated husk of Peyton Manning at QB, yeah?

His swing was perfect.
