I'm watching Jays vs Spiders while I wait for our game to start. Great pitching matchup - Halliday / Sabbathia.
Get this. Our friends at Buffyvision are making fun of The Jake being renamed Progressive Field, how no one can remember the name, how the announcers all have to keep correcting themselves.
You know, the announcers who call games at The Rogers Centre, formerly known as Skydome...!
Waiting? You mean for Comerica stuff? It's written but waiting to post tomorrow. There's some stuff on wmtc now, but I'll elaborate more here tomorrow.
My shin is still sore from kicking myself. We didn't have a camera with us when we should have. Dumb.
Twins anncrs noting how the Red Sox used to take a backseat to the Yankees in the division, but now the tables have turned, "and the Yankees can't seem to catch up with the Red Sox."
Okay, I'll admit it for a change, this new thing of "stealing on occasion but only at the perfect time and it works even if you're a slow guy" is pretty Yankee late 90s-esque.

Jere, and you're saying that is a good thing or a bad thing? The "I'll admit it" part sounds like you mean it's a good thing, but I'm confused because it's the 90s Yankees!
Just started reading the wmtc post, and already a nice little (or big, or regular) coincidence:
When I went to Detroit in '99, we went through Canada, and I have videotape of me standing in Windsor with the Detroit skyline behind me, probably from that same little park. But the weird thing is, I was wearing my Nomar shirt in the video, which I have held on to and still wear occasionally... including right now!
Damn, that's what I get for leaving the sound on during commercials. Mick and the boys singing "Like A Rainbow" for some colour copier or some other shit.
It's a pretty obvious comparison, I think. Not Knoblauch the unable-to-throw Yankee. Knoblauch the scrappy young Twin who won ROY and played for a championship team his rookie year.
A friend and I did Tor-Det-Pit in July '99. But our Det game was against the Yanks. Had we chosen a Sox game we would've been at the same series as you.
"A friend and I did Tor-Det-Pit in July '99. But our Det game was against the Yanks. Had we chosen a Sox game we would've been at the same series as you."
That's cool! Even though it didn't happen it's cool.
We didn't do anything else in Detroit, just went in for the games and back. We did some great stuff in Detroit on our 99 trip, but this was all Canada except for the games.
If you're dumb and you're a non-Spanish speaker, you won't know the phrase "to fire" in Spanish. But you might know "fuego" from hearing "en fuego" on SportsCenter or maybe from Sesame Street. That's what I was saying. But, still, from what I've observed, a whole shitload of Americans are quite, uh, anti-smart.

Well yes Jere , I will agree with that ......but knowing spanish should not be a deciding factor.......
I'm even Googling and I can't come up with it. It's obviously not a Spanish idiom. I'm trying "to lose one's job" or "to be told you don't have work". I'm going to email my friend Arturo.
"I'm dumber already from this conversation and I ain't to swift to begin with....."
LOL
I asked our friend who we saw this week. He is from Honduras. I can't believe he only began to learn English 8 years ago. His English is so good. I would love to speak Spanish that well. Or French, for that matter.
Back in high school there was an extended field trip to Quebec for kids taking French. The ones who went told me that they couldn't understand French Canadians at all.
They also told me they would go to the bars at night.

In Canada , its pronouced Canada, do you have a lot of situations where French would come in handy.....
"do you have a lot of situations where French would come in handy"
In most of Canada you can totally do without French. But if you're bilingual you would have a lot more job opportunities.
We would like to live in Montreal, but we couldn't get good jobs there without French.
Also I'm not anti-French-Canadian like a lot of people, I respect French Canada, so I'd like to be able to communicate in their preferred language. But my French is idiotic.
Canadian French is very different than France French. Different accent. But I think they can understand each other.
That's the ridiculous thing about it. We have such a huge homogeneous culture, we have little opportunity to speak different languages. They teach us French that we can hardly use.
Patrick, I know. It's not serious language instruction, it's like a silly exercise.
At least I get to read French on the cereal boxes here. I like reading the labels. My French reading is doing great. Just don't ask me to say any of it.
The only time I have ever been around French Canadiens , was when I was little we would got to Cape Cod every summer....and you could point them out a mile away at the beach.They all wore ball huggin speedos......
The people in St. Johns didn't have a drastic accent. It's deep in the outport towns that you find the old coots who still recall that time they went to the next town over 20 years ago, and will tell you everything you want to know about the ocean, fish, and boats.
I may post something else this afternoon, if I have time, but figured I'd put this up now.

A thing of beauty that is. A thing of beauty.
From YFSF:
ReplyDeleteYou know what else is embarrassing? Being named Boof.
You know what's even more embarrassing? Choosing the name "Boof." Yes, Bonser actually changed his name from John Paul Bonser to Boof Bonser
Looks like the away-team theory is holding: the Twins homers are on here.
ReplyDeleteLester has to be on tonight this team can run ....so please keep the walks under 3.......
ReplyDeleteBut Boof is his name! Why is that embarrassing?
ReplyDeleteAnd this team has walked less than anyone in the league....
ReplyDeleteHe was also part of this great trade........
ReplyDeleteTraded by the San Francisco Giants with Francisco Liriano and Joe Nathan to the Minnesota Twins for A.J. Pierzynski and cash.
And this team has walked less than anyone in the league....
ReplyDeleteThat could be a real help for Lester, if these guys are free swingers. I like our chances.
I always like our chances.
ReplyDeleteDetroit has pull ahead of the Yanks, 3-1.
ReplyDeleteCan't imagine how they got to Igawa so early...
I wish Jacoby would take more pitches, especially in his first at bat.
ReplyDeleteMy bad, Boof was throwing strikes...
ReplyDeleteEveryone seems to be less patient, more hacking. I don't know if it's true, but it seems like we're having shorter at-bats in general.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to ask anyone to run numbers on it...
fuck no! good play if he was really out.
ReplyDeletePapi half dong!
ReplyDeleteI like how we wait for 2 outs before we get down to business.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I love the two-out rally.
ReplyDeleteTwins announcers are praising Manny, without the backhanded compliments. Just flat-out appreciating him. Nice.
ReplyDeleteAlso, they called Manny an RBI Machine. It reminded me we heard someone in Detroit call Yook the Human Sweat Machine.
Ok, it wasn't much of a rally...
ReplyDeleteLester time!
ReplyDeleteEveryone got truped on that one, but Manny had it all along!
ReplyDeletewhew! At least it was a one pitch out!
ReplyDeleteThat first batter is pretty Hillenbrand/Soriano, eh? 31 K, 3 BB.
ReplyDeleteEllsbury keeps missing cutoff men, throwing to wrong base...
Ouch, 2nd and 3rd w/ only one out.
ReplyDeleteAhh well.
ReplyDeleteIgawa fillings in nicely for Huges at Comerica... 6-1 Tigers
ReplyDelete"No Dice" Kei.
ReplyDelete2-0. Bah.
ReplyDeleteNo Dice Kei, I like it :)
ReplyDeleteJere, I have a post coming up that you will appreciate. Some observations from Comerica.
ReplyDelete"No Dice Kei, I like it :)"
ReplyDeleteThanks. That was a Jere-special.
Yeah we've been waiting!
ReplyDeletenot so wicked inning for Lester
ReplyDeleteWaiting? You mean for Comerica stuff? It's written but waiting to post tomorrow. There's some stuff on wmtc now, but I'll elaborate more here tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteMy shin is still sore from kicking myself. We didn't have a camera with us when we should have. Dumb.
Oh, L, I see you have a vaca post up. I was gone all day til just now.
ReplyDelete"We didn't have a camera with us when we should have."
ReplyDeleteSometimes that's the key to being allowed to witness the magic...
Re Jere-Special, in Detroit one of us would make a joke or pun about a player and the other would say "Jere". They were Jere-special-wannabees.
ReplyDeleteBrendan Harris, eating crazy cheese like you would think he's from Paris
ReplyDeleteThat's why you always run when the ball gets away from the catcher! Nice job, Youk!
ReplyDelete"Oh, L, I see you have a vaca post up. I was gone all day til just now."
ReplyDeleteYes, and more basebally detail tomorrow.
"Sometimes that's the key to being allowed to witness the magic..."
Hey, thanks. That makes me feel better.
"one of us would make a joke or pun about a player and the other would say "Jere". "
ReplyDeleteSweet!
Twins anncrs noting how the Red Sox used to take a backseat to the Yankees in the division, but now the tables have turned, "and the Yankees can't seem to catch up with the Red Sox."
ReplyDeleteYour random statistic of the day:
ReplyDeleteThe Red Sox are 1-7 in games under the dome on turf.
1-1 to open the season at the Tokyo Dome against the A's,
0-3 in early April against the Jays, and
0-3, two weekends ago against the Rays.
Only three teams still play on turf in the Major Leagues, all in the American League (Toronto, Tampa Bay, Minnesota).
Okay, I'll admit it for a change, this new thing of "stealing on occasion but only at the perfect time and it works even if you're a slow guy" is pretty Yankee late 90s-esque.
ReplyDeleteNow we're comin' back. Would really like to see these 2 runs score now.
ReplyDeleteBut only Minnesota has old-fashioned turf. Rays and Jays both have the new semi-grass-like.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'll admit it for a change, this new thing of "stealing on occasion but only at the perfect time and it works even if you're a slow guy" is pretty Yankee late 90s-esque.
ReplyDelete(faints)
Jere, and you're saying that is a good thing or a bad thing? The "I'll admit it" part sounds like you mean it's a good thing, but I'm confused because it's the 90s Yankees!
ReplyDeleteOK, Allan fainted so now I got it! :)
ReplyDeleteRed Sox 2, other team 2.
ReplyDeletePiles of work here, but most of it is due Monday, so I am sort of not doing it now.
ReplyDeleteWell it's a good thing till it stops working, let's put it that way.
ReplyDeleteP.S.: I love the name "Boof".
ReplyDeleteI wish we had a Boof on our team. one that was a good player, though.
Just started reading the wmtc post, and already a nice little (or big, or regular) coincidence:

Twins anncrs comparing FY to the young Knoblauch with the Twins. I'm always surprised that you don't hear that more.
ReplyDeleteMinnesota announcers make a comparison between Pedroia's rookie season last year and Chuck Knoblauch.
ReplyDeletePlease no? There is no comparison.
Cheer while you can, Twins fans.
ReplyDeleteDamn, that's what I get for leaving the sound on during commercials. Mick and the boys singing "Like A Rainbow" for some colour copier or some other shit.
ReplyDeleteAnd nobody tell me I'm overreacting or I'll smack you.
ReplyDeleteI like Dale a lot more than Dave. I wish Dave would just go away.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty obvious comparison, I think. Not Knoblauch the unable-to-throw Yankee. Knoblauch the scrappy young Twin who won ROY and played for a championship team his rookie year.
ReplyDeleteAnd you know those short gritty white guys are all alike.
ReplyDeleteJere, that's cool. And we were in Tiger Stadium in 99, that was the year of our Midwest Rustbelt Baseball Tour.
ReplyDeleteDamn, I thought Manny had that one.
ReplyDeleteMick and the boys singing "Like A Rainbow" for some colour copier or some other shit.
ReplyDeleteIf they sell off the shitty songs, it's okay.
Thats our Lugo! (cue the silly jingle)
ReplyDeletethere are people who claim this gomez guy is faster than lyndon.
ReplyDeletespeaking of Yankee era Knobby....
ReplyDeleteRestarting my "Fire Lugo" campaign.
ReplyDelete"there are people who claim this gomez guy is faster than lyndon."
ReplyDeleteHow can that be? Impossible.
We can start a fund to pay off Lugo's contract, so we can easily trade him...
ReplyDeleteA friend and I did Tor-Det-Pit in July '99. But our Det game was against the Yanks. Had we chosen a Sox game we would've been at the same series as you.
ReplyDeleteI hope Lester kicks Lugo in the nuts later
ReplyDeletelester could use a kick or four himself.
ReplyDeleteHe just needs a shoulder to cry on
ReplyDeleteEven I'm done defending Lugo. He just sucks.
ReplyDeleteYou could call your Fire Lugo campaign: "Fuego Lugo, Hasta Luego"
ReplyDeleteBut I'm sure "to fire" and "fire" are not both represented by the same word in Spanish like they are in English. But dumb Americans will get the idea.
"A friend and I did Tor-Det-Pit in July '99. But our Det game was against the Yanks. Had we chosen a Sox game we would've been at the same series as you."
ReplyDeleteThat's cool! Even though it didn't happen it's cool.
What day were you in Pittsburgh?
twins rally started with 2 out, none on. fuck it.
ReplyDeleteCheer while you can, St. Paul. You'll be needing gallons of Ketchup to cheer up when all is through.
ReplyDeleteL-girl said...
ReplyDeleteDamn, I thought Manny had that one.
He should 've dove for that one Ellsbury was backing him up.....
I'm trying to think of how to say "to fire" (as in can his ass) in Spanish. I can only think of "to lose one's job".
ReplyDeleteBut if Lugo was en fuego we wouldn't want to fuego his ass.
Total pitches in 2 innings: 103
ReplyDeleteLester: 26-30 - 56
Bonser: 17-30 - 47
So wait, did you stop by the old Tiger Stadium on this trip?
ReplyDeleteI see it's finally about to be demolished.

ReplyDeleteMr. 27 coming up with 2 outs in the 9th!
ReplyDeletea whole nother story, for all intensive purposes
ReplyDeleteWe're counting on this man over at Comerica. I trust a foo-man-choo as much as a sweaty goatee when it comes to winning.
ReplyDeletecrap. he singles. 6-4, ABreu up as tying run
ReplyDeleteSupposably, "intensive purposes" is okay...
ReplyDeleteEvening, chaps.
ReplyDeleteFinally, got just baseball for the rest of the evening. Looked like everything was conspiring against the Red Sox until the top of the 5th.
Joe said Morneau is from B.C.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, Todd Jones, a gas can if ever there was one. Visiting fans cheer when he trots out.
ReplyDeleteABreu doubles. 6-5. Stupid Jones
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHH 6-5 over at Comerica and Goadjilla is up.
ReplyDeleteThey're walking Shemp intentionally. So, first and second, two outs in 9th, Yanks down 1. Duncan scheduled to hit
ReplyDeleteYes, Morneau is Cdn. Much fuss made over him here when he won the AL MVP.
ReplyDeleteLeyland knows when to walk a hot hitter, Godjilla IBB.
ReplyDeletetime for the wheat thins to crumble.
ReplyDeletehaha, I love when the Yanks almost win and still lose! Duncan flies out to end it
ReplyDeleteBwahahaha! time to make hay!
ReplyDeleteHi Ish :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know if intensive purposes is ok, I'll have to acks someone. It might be do to the fact that I di'int know.
I see that pitchers duel in Cleveland fell apart, Jays lost 6-1. They seem demoralized.
ReplyDeleteTheir "big move" was to get Kevin Mensch.
I see Kei Igawa dazzled once again... :)
