  3. I'm happy to post play by play as I can. I listen to most games.
  4. Runners at 1/2 w/ 1 out on oppo fly
  5. 8 pitches, last one a breaking ball called K, 1 out
  6. I want to see how we play in the middle innings. So far it's when we've weakened.
  7. Good start. We are playing aggressively.
  8. this shit is ridiculous thoughts, prayers, and well, bullet proof vests
  9. Can they validate that the earth is oblong?
  10. For the 3rd time, maintenance at my apartment complex has cancelled my ticket to have the AC unit repaired because it won't cool below 70* and ends up running all night to no avail. Why cancel? because my dogs are not locked up. Fucking Bull SHIT. I lock both of them up and have each time. Luckly I was able to answer the complex's call this afternoon and well, I called out their bullshit. Told them no, I locked both up this AM because I saw their voicemail, and I bet he's just scared because they are barking and he didn't even go in. Apartment rep calls the maintenance guy and tells him to go back in and confirm. Yes, they were both locked up and he's a fucking chicken shit afraid of my dogs, crated up, barking. Hell, the puppy has a blanket over the crate because it's the only way she will not whine, bark, cry, and howl all the time. Fucking stupid trivial shit and goodness am I surly about it.
  11. That reminds me...the last UT vs Sand Aggy game I went to, I had a group of young sand aggys who were drunk in the two rows in front of me. One of them decided my cheering for Texas was inappropriate and subsequently started talking shit to me. Being older, less drunk, married at the time and with my now ex-wife, I looked at the ladies in the group and recommended they move him away from me before he gets everyone into a shit storm they don't want. They move him down one row and over a few people. Far enough away that he forgets about me, meanwhile, Texas proceeds to keep "playing well" and I keep cheering on. Second half starts up and this guy comes back and is even more drunk, kind of proud of him, but he starts talking shit to me and bowing up from one row below me. At this point, I step down from the bleacher and get on his "level" meaning I am still 8-10 inches taller and probably 60-75 pounds heavier. I'm not in the mood to put up with his shit, look him dead in the eyes, and tell him that he's just like his football team and won't win this fight so he should step back down and shut the fuck up. He pauses, seemingly thinking it through, before his bros decide to encourage him to leave and I enjoy the rest of the game with my ex-wife who also hated my cheering for Texas because she's from Lubbock and went to sand aggy.
  12. I had a minute to discuss the umpire interference call that occurred and prevented at least 1 run with a colleague of mine who umpires collegiate baseball. First, the 2nd base umpire was NOT in the correct position so fuck him. (my guess is he was there as he is not mobile enough to be in a better position in case of a close play at second base.) Second, since the ball went past a defender who could have made a play on the ball, the ball should have been considered a live ball, and runners could keep advancing. (even though this was subjective, it seems, and most likely the reasoning for only allowing the interference base hit.) Third, the only time a dead ball should be called in this type of scenario or similar scenario, is when the ball does not pass a player in the infield (pitcher excluded) and hits the umpire who is in the infield grass. Lastly, I hope that umpire has a nasty bruise to remind him to stay in proper positioning on the field and also gets docked points for his review.
  13. interdasting potato there firebox hole looks small, happy to know the temp gauges are décor, waste of décor though, and it looks like it's going to draw all the smoke straight up without circulating... how did it hold the heat? getting to 225* is easy...holding it there is not. Firebox could use some upgrades depending on the approach to the fire itself. snake method, dgaf method, side fire, etc.
  14. Shit, my apologies...we're playing down at corpus atm
  15. When is the next floatilla? I could use some river time (and beers...)
