…How’re we playin? I see we’re down a bit, but lots of walks?
Is Randolph blind?
There are people on the field. What are they doing? Oh now they are doing the opposite. No wait now the opposite opposite. I no longer know what is going on. Not sure I ever did. . .

Sounds about right
$6.00 an hour at Milwaukee in 1994:
So, yeah, ~10 or ~12 an hour.
Doesn't look too bad
this is just a small piece of red on the radar followed behind by light showers.
It’ll move through.
Last one was 52 minutes. How long do you guys think this rain delay will last?
It shouldn’t last long.

Couldn't hold a lead
and he had several chances.

looked good for the first three innings
some better defense behind him (Yadi actually had a throwing error, if you can believe that) and things might have been different. Also not throwing a meatball to Gonzales would have helped.
Hmmm
What a weird game.

I had to sit with my head between my knees during Cloverfield
It’s a relatively new development for me — I’ve never experienced it until the last 2-3 years but now I can exactly when they aren’t holding the camera steady.
Hancock was one that caught me by surprise.

I looked away from Cloverfield quite a bit too
It gave me a headache. I left thinking… did I just pay $11 to get a headache?
I learned my lesson after that movie
but it’s these movies where they do it unexpectedly that piss me off. It’s one thing to do an entire movie that way (and I’ll never go see those in theaters again) but sneaking it into the middle of a movie. . . they need to provide a warning or something.

i think I dated her in High School...
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

that was an amazing shot.
Yang WON this tournament.

Chuck Norris doesn't need a bat.
he just roundhouse kicks the ball out of the park.

Unreal.
Tiger doesn’t win a major, and a no-namer wins the final one of the year.
Forget Christmas in July... every day's a Holliday in St. Louis.
Tiger did, however, win the final Buick Open
and I’m sorry that I missed it. I’d been to the Buick multiple times and had fun playing rock-paper-scissors with Lucas Glover two or three years ago (before he was a big name) on the 16th.

I would say ball game but with the current state of things…

wouldn't it be cool
if Tiger holed it out like he did in last year’s US Open 3rd round?

Going to be raining for awhile.
The window of play was during that half inning that it started pouring in.

Not to rag on you,
but its the third time today. If you link something, do us the favor of checking the open in new window box.
Thanks.

Just hadn’t thought of it. Don’t worry, before long, I’ll be good at it.

I wonder how long he'd had that in his pocket.

Interesting...
in an ESPN poll, Usain Bolt was voted the most dominant athlete in sports right now over Phelps and Tiger. Bolt has 43% of the vote, Phelps 30%, and Woods 26%.

It was just Woods, Phelps and Bolt
but I’m not an ESPN poll setter-upper. Had ESPN been fair, they would’ve put in Pujols, and he’d have been in 1st.

Bad time to ptu Woods in a poll like that
When he’s losing to a nobody.
Bolt vs. Phelps is very interesting. Both are shattering world records in their respective sports.

If it was a poll of just Bolt and Phelps,
I’d vote Phelps.

On that note,
I played at Lost Tracks in Bend, OR (where the acting PGA President is from) a couple weeks ago, and it was a very nice course. Shot 81 there and had 3 birdies.

My channel just showed the shot from the centerfield camera the whole time
no sound, no camera movement, no nothing.
I kinda liked it.
Did you ever get tired of it?
Or did you not watch that long?

my dog dies this morning, I’m trying to deal with that and then Tiger fucking blows a Major championship so now I have to avoid WWL for 5 days.

Sorry to hear about your dog
Hope the Cards win for you.
Forget Christmas in July... every day's a Holliday in St. Louis.
We had her 13 years
She had some pain from bad hips but she was fine for the most part. 7 days ago she started throwing up once in the middle of the night for 3 straight days, then she stopped eating. She got super weak and thin so we started giving her liquids and broth using a straw like thing.
She got strong again, started to eat and drink on her own but was still a little shaky on her feet. She seemed to be getting better but then about midnight last night she just sat up and started panting. About 3, she started panting and shaking and we sat with her for 2 hours trying to help her. She kept getting worse and finally went about 4:30.
I’ve never been this sad in my life. Outside of my lady, that dog was my favorite thing on this earth.

The day I lost my dog
was one of the worst of my life (and that’s saying a lot). I feel for ya.

Me too.
She’d had surgery to remove cancer, and it was obvious she was feeling better. Two weeks later, she stopped drinking, eating. We took her to emergency vet, but it was too late. Fluid had built up in her lungs – a complication from the surgery.
That was 6 years ago and I still miss that dog.
Hang in there, Hardcore.

Thank you both for your kind words
when she was younger I’m shocked she was never hit by a car. She would break loose and run and run and run. The fact that she survived that is a blessing.
by Hardcore Legend on Aug 16, 2009 7:33 PM EDT up reply actions
My dog did that, too.
She was a huskie. All she wanted to do was run and play chase. Once you caught up to her, she’d tear off again.

and she had the uncanny knack of tearing off again towards traffic.

I got my first dog when I was 6.
She was a collie puppy. She was a beautiful pure breed. She had puppies after a few years and we kept one of them. When I was about 14, I had just come in from going to the movies and my mom reminded to feed the dogs. I went out and She was laying in the dog house so I tried to call her out. She wouldnt come so I crawled in and I couldnt get her to stand up. We eventually got her to the vet and they gave her medicine and she could stand. We had to leave her over the weekend. Monday after school My mom told me that she had relapsed and had to put her to sleep. It was horrible. Now, her daughter in 13 and has bad arthritis and I know it is only a matter of time.
Regardless, you can always know that you gave the m a great life, and you got a little out of it too.
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."
