  1. Lol I saw this pic a day or two ago and didn't realize it was tom hanks. Gump was good but shawls Hank was much better. Angels are playing for Redemption this weekend!
  2. Maybe we should pitch McDonald for defensive purposes. Seriously guys this has the potential to really put the screws to Oakland. And we do have the personel to make it happen. If it doesn't happen at least it is just one game. I have a feeling that we are going to have a big offensive night. Based solely on us being due to get some jersey mikes. As desperate as this same situation would have looked three months ago we are now dealing from a position of strength. Tomorrow's game is more important than today's. Simply because it will be a "normal" turn for everyone. Can't focus so hard on a "hiccup" game that it costs us two games. And you all seem to be forgetting **** THE REDSOX!
  3. More of a beer drinker myself. But have tried a couple of nice whiskeys with skram. Always open to new things.
  4. Ray Donovan is fantastic. Well aside from Mickeys flicking talking dolphin. Lol. I love Bunchy too. Such a tortured soul with a huge heart. We have all known someone like Bunchy. I would like to see more developement of the cop character that Abigal is flirting with. I was talking to my brother a couple weeks ago and we both knew reporter lady would be back in the picture.
  5. Was down in the Gaslamp District in San Diego a few years ago. Saw a pandhandling college age kid with a sign that said " need cash for marijuana research". Gave him $5.
  6. pitch for the angels early in the 2014 season.
  7. There is plenty of blame to go around in the events in Fergusen. The shooting is seperate from the rioting. The video showing the kid robbing the store has been shown now. I saw a piece on cnn and every person in the crowd either thought it was fake or denied that it was the same kid. Even after the family said it was him. Seems too many people wanted the rioting to go on. There are a lot of videos out there that seem to contradict each other. Dialogue that he was charging the cops. While others say he was submissive with his hands up. Have not seen actual shooting on video yet. This whole thing is out of hand.
  8. According to those stats he could easily have 7 more wins. 8 when you realize he was leading in that game against Kershaw
  9. Albert is not putting up the numbers he did I. His late 20's early 30's but he is solid. And he does make some others better. Tho he needs to use his mojo on Aybar again. He has tapered off lately after starting the season at a gold glove caliber level.
  10. ((((Percy)))) seems like your illness has softened your stance on the redfux. Just let me remind you that the redfux aren't worth the little pieces of toilet paper that stick to the hairs of your ass. Be strong and be well.
  11. Baseball is a funny game. One hard hit ball in that inning by beltre. In fact that was only ball beltre hit hard all night and yet it was good for his fourth hit. Baseball is indeed a funny game. Josh is due to have a decent game. And we got the win last night with nothing out of trout, Albert or Josh. They will perform I next few games and we will be fine. If our offense gets back to where it was at the break Oakland will be looking way up at us. And jepsen is a huge part of where we are right now.
  12. ((((Percy)))) we are all pulling for you! Cancer has touched everybody in some way. I have lost a brother and my beautiful mother to this devil. But i have beat the same cancer that took them and my younger brother has beat cancer as well. I mention this to show that a DX is not a death sentence. This is beatable and the medical community is doing amazing work in the treatment and cure of cancers. Feel free to PM if you'd like. Looking forward to seeing your hat and picking you out of the crowd.
  13. I have watched two different videos of him hitting Ward. He definitely accelerated before the collision. Tonys driving has caused accidents before. No way did he intend to kill the kid but his aggressive recklessness caused the accident. He is a three time champion. He is always racing in these other events and has a ton of experience in all types of racing. Ward should not have walked down the track but Tony is absolutely responsible for the collision. Regardless of intent his willful actions resulted in a young mans death.
  14. Ok AMC. Watching the pain that Rosie's dad went through in first season was incredible tv.
  15. This is where the rest of the team is suppose to pick up a slumping player. And that's not happening.
  16. The Killing season 4. This is on Netflix after three seasons on FX or STARZ. Can't remember which. 3 episodes in and it's pretty good. First season was gut wrenching TV.
  17. this reminds me of a food truck I saw on foodnetwork. Was a hot dog truck this same size called " I dream of weenie".
  18. if he can throw 2008 mph he should be able to get some outs.
  19. Pete was a joy to watch on tbs. Pete and Skip made you forget Don Sutton was in the booth too. And speaking of Hawk Harrelson, his contribution to broadcasting is like that of fruit at the bottom yogurt to a Diesel engine.
  20. Last year the NL MVP went to a well deserving Andrew Mc Cutchen. The writers used the same argument trout supporters used to give it to Andrew but not Trout. BBWAA also gave Cy Young to Felix a couple years ago when he spent the whole season one game north or south of .500. Nolan Ryan led the NL in era and strikeouts one year and was no where near the CY discussion. As I said the award goes to whoever they want to give it to. Same rings true for RAWLINGS gold glove. I was joking with my brother and another great friend that Aybar stole Jeters GG this year when he alertly scored on the failed pick off throw to second. Remember these are seperate entities from MLB and not truly beholden to them.
  21. Angels are undefeated in August and the As have yet to win in August.
  22. if you recall there was one voter that didn't have Trout in his top five and another that didn't have him on his 10 man ballot. This same voter had three redfux on his ballot ( pedroias, uheraa and cheat papi). The year Weaver won 20 games someone left him out of the top five pitchers in Cy Young Ballot. If you don't believe there is a bias against west coast baseball then you would have to agree with the voters not being the brightest bulbs. By the way through the 70's and 80's east coast media were still talking about the Dodgers as if they were still in Brooklyn. Not sure if that's really still true. One more thing.......doesn't it seem the criteria seems to change from year to year at the whim of the BBWAA. And that's fine. It's their award and they can give it to whoever they want.
