Ortiz is probably the main reason why I know Pujols is clean. Ortiz is an f'n cheat and in terms of ability, couldn't hold Albert's jock. Yet here he is at age 40 defying time the only way cheaters did in the 90's and early 2000's knew how.

I have no idea whether or not Albert was clean in STL. I suspect he wasn't just as I suspect he's 3 years older than he says he is, but one thing is for certain, he's not juicing right now.

The difference between Ortiz at 40 and Pujols at 34 should be the opposite if what it is. F Papi, I hope MLB stops protecting his cheating butt for the sake of selling tickets and jerseys.

you are far too nice to this self righteous prick. He admitted cheating and then tried to convince everyone he never said anything. He is protected by MLB for some stupid reason. He went nuts last year in Toronto after he grounded out. He didn't like the strike one call earlier in the AB. He still saw two more strikes before he grounded out. He estrogen the water cooler. No fine. No suspension. No nothing. **** Ortiz and his cheating redfux ass.

Joe buck got on my nerves during the 2002 World Series. He acted the Angels didn't belong on the field. He sure ain't his daddy.

Does a bar count as a counter?

Culvers was in Fargo. Prefer INO but seems we left 5 guys/ INO debate behind 8 pages ago.

Yard house is not fast food but someone started naming sit down resturants so I wanted to make sure we had beer on the island. You know, as a public service.

With CJs season ending injury it is important that Rasmus get his work in.

Stradling and I were in North Dakota recently doing some top secret black ops ninja shit and decided to try a chain called Culvers. Stradling had heard of it before and had heard good reviews. They served what they called a "butter burger". Was sort of a hybrid ground beef shredded beef patty that was fried, crispy on the edges, in butter. I had the double mushroom swiss(I was undercover) and really liked it. If they had one in Valley City we would have gone again. They are sort of a open all day burger/frozen custard joint reminded me of a Sonic, Rally or A&W store. Anyone else familiar with Culvers?

INO

Yardhouse (patio cuz they are so gnikcuf loud)

El Taco.

Still bullshit.

 

Sure you had 23 beers, but you threw up. So you should have been DQ'd and second place, with 18 beers and the ability to call it quits on his own terms, should have won......me!

 

Funny thing is that was the first time I ever met your now wife haha.

Hey Stradling and Skram........they ARE talking tall beers right? I'd hate to think we would drink with amateurs. Unless of course this was the "little miss" division.

Esther Elizabeth Rolle (November 8, 1920 – November 17, 1998) was an American actress. She is best known for her role as Florida Evans, a no-nonsense black housekeeper on the CBS television sitcom Maude for two seasons (1972-1974) and its spin-off series Good Times for five seasons (1974-1977, 1978-1979).

Holy shit! This may be the best post of the year.

Baseballmom and I had a discussion about food once. Sandwiches I think. She was pointed out to me at tilted kilt phoenix (by a far less interesting interviewee) but I don't recall ever talking to her. Will endeavor to correct that in March.

Dick

lol I thought it was funny.

Wow. Just wow. I remember Cammy just being a terror when he got to San Diego.

Finally an interview with someone interesting!

The Habit is a good burger though.

When did they move Orem to Utah? I thought Orem was in Arkansas. Thanks a lot obama!

The hat for a pastrami dip. That's the only thing I order when I go there. The other stuff is good but the pastrami is just the best you can get on a roll.

If you like the Bosch series you would like Lincoln Lawyer too. They are half brothers and Connely uses a lot of humor in his writing. Such as the rumor in the second or third book that Mathew Mconegey was going to play him in the movie( movie was made a couple years before book was written).

My respect goes out to your son that is choosing to become a fireman. I still remember vividly the firemen from the twin towers on 9-11. Smoking burning buildings, panicked people running down the stairs to get out side and save themselves. And then there were the firemen running up those same stairs to save others that maybe couldn't find their ways to the stairwells. Or were scared stiff and couldn't move. These heroes rounding up victims and getting them to the stairwell while continuing up the stairs until the buildings collapsed. Taking with it hundreds of firemen and first responders. Mrs Splint and I have made baskets for our local fire station for over 20 years at the holidays to show our appreciation for all they do. I have gotten a tad choked up while thanking them over the last 13 years. But we don't miss a year.much love and respect for the Herod in our midst.

Brandon, I couldn't agree more. But I cannot stand thousand island at all. As for Five Guys at Five Guys I remember texting Stradlings one day when I drove by the 5guys store at corona crossings and saw two customers at noon.

Can't help but think the interview would have been a bit different if they interviewed me about Stradling. I know it would have been funnier. And I would only have to make up about 40% of the stuff.

I have some more books to recomend for you. Brad Thor writes spy type political intrigue like Flynn and Baldacci. I have 13 out of 14 that can read. Also Michael Connely is good. Especially Harry Bosch and Lincoln Lawyer series.

I remember going to a wedding reception around the corner from the Moore house the weekend or so after the shootings. There was a lot of activity at the house as if they were having a memorial or something.

As far aside tea goes I have founda fountain ice tea that is reallyngood. Fuze unsweetened. At least atthe fishtail ions near my house it is good.

I go to the corona locations. Either Ontario and the 15 or Serfas Club and the 91. I used to stop at the store in Barstow but we usually save that for the trip back and go to the del Taco in Barstow. Best del taco ever.
