I only got to see the first 3 innings. How bad was it raining while they were hitting? Did they wait too long to stop the game?

The little things is when you really appreciate Gus and Augie
Agreed, but I put that on the players more than the coaches, even from the time you're about 11 yo on up. Everyone out there, on any team anywhere, should be able to put down a basic sac bunt on demand. Every. Fucking. Time. But we see players struggle with it all the time across all levels. And if you can't do it, I have a hard time blaming the coaches for it.

Was there a pickoff other than Peter at second yesterday?
Don't remember one, but there was one at first that was damn close ... by the catcher. IMHO if you get picked off at first by a catcher, even a great one, you should just stop playing baseball.

I didn't make it to that practice. I'm old and not gonna sit in the mist and chill.
No, I meant the whole weekend was deserted. But yeah, it was cold. I think I felt colder at the Disch though than when I was out at COTA that weekend. At least at COTA I could move around a lot. The Disch was pretty packed though all weekend. Maybe that's where everyone was.

Anyone else going to the Blancpain GT Word Challenge America at COTA this weekend?
I think I'm going to drag my laptop out there and do some "work" on Friday during their practices. Friday looks to be free with access to Main Grandstand, Turn 1, Turn 15, Paddock. Saturday and Sunday are $30 each or $50 for both.
That shit was deserted...

BTW I heard the proposed motorsport hotel/condo deal at COTA is dead & the developer took it to Vegas.

If this is accurate, sure looks like fucking murder to me...
Dude is unarmed and walking home, you somehow get into an argument with him as you pass by in your pickup, then jump out of the pickup with a rifle and follow the guy around with it trained on the guy til you shoot him. How in the actual fuck is that not murder?
QuoteAccording to Shelley's family, Shelley was walking home when he got into an argument with his neighbor over Shelley's family dog. The family claims Shelley's neighbor stabbed the dog a few weeks earlier. At some point during the argument, the shooter jumped out of his truck with a gun.

Maybe the dipshit shooting the video shoulda been calling 911 instead?
At least the video being leaked might result in charges on this asshole.

For USA Transfers you'll pay the driver the Roundtrip amount (in USD) once he drops you off at the Ferry. They're great.
I thought I remembered paying online in advance.

USA transfers is the consensus for airport to ferry transport correct? booked it and it didn't ask for payment info. it said they're reviewing it for availability and they'll contact me. is this right?
Yep they're the ones to use. Re: the payment when booking, I don't remember, but I've only used them once, and I've slept since then...
Hope this customs stuff gets straightened out before y'all get there. We're still up in the air on whether we'll go there or Cali this summer.
ETA: Looks like they added more agents recently.

Got my 500 tickets in the mail yesterday and told the boys. They went nuts..

I'd never seen this video of the Johnson/Alonso car swap from Bahrain last year. Pretty good. Thought y'all might like it.

Alonso seat fitting at the MTC. Cool video...

I’ll write something up and take pics. May surprise a couple local reporters.
What was the turnout like?
Ol' Squidward (Epstein) sure was looking old & poorly.

More recent locals can correct me but Huston always spoke highly of David Smart, who worked with him on pitching. He is still around I believe, might be worth a google and a conversation.
Are you hacking my laptop? I literally just came back here from looking at that website and watching Etier's video lol...
Yeah I'm gonna look into them some more, for both my boys.

Sounds like he just needs work and experience tossing/locating the ball with his pitches. If you can catch or buy a net, you will get more value out of reps and maybe a specific pitching coach for mechanics.
Let's be honest about "select" teams across all sports. 90% of the time you are just paying for being placed with other, more talented players but you get little to nothing out of the coaching. Most of "select sports" is match.com for young athletes.
You might be lucky and have a really good club around you but those are way too few. You would have to really research the history of development for the pitchers of the club to get anything of value imo.
Thanks. Yeah I've considered this kind of route as well. I really am hoping he can just get his foot in the door because he's still growing, getting stronger, etc. He hasn't even really learned how to pitch yet and already throws good stuff that most kids can't catch up with. I think in the right environment he could really take off and has tremendous upside. Gotta get him there tho...
We have a net that he & his brother throw and hit into, and I can catch him. I think I wanna get a mask tho for that. He's throwing hard enough now that I'd better not take any chances at my age.

Well, fuck. No wonder he was pissed. That's bullshit.
