might be defensive, when you put it that way
best way to avoid injuries via beat-downs. …..not the pitching hand, Carp!

anyone else worried about running Yadi into a crisp?
Though I think he feels obligated to take the turn with ‘his’ pitchers as they go for CGs and the Cy Young. Molinas have hang-ups like that.

We've had so many off days...
And it hasn’t been a hot summer at all. He’s probably still pretty fresh.
V, b.
as soon as the cardinals get three catchers on the roster
yadi will get some time off, especially if the cardinals have clinched. after that, it wouldn’t surprise me if tony sat yadi every other game for the rest of the year, especially the non-carp, non-waino, non-pineiro starts.

Pags-Lite
Not even “Pags Light”, he gets stuck with the cruder “Lite” (you know, like Bud Light and Miller Lite)
Don't argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. - anon.
I like this one
Pags-Lite it is for me.

anyone have a college wireless network friendly game link?
i’d rather watch the game in my room and get some work done than go hunt down the tv in the lounge.

nope
sad times, i realize. not much need for one anyway as i generally either go to my buddy’s room to watch most games or just hit up the HDTV in the lounge to watch them. but these day games are hard as they fall right the middle of my prime homework doing time.

Well, I'm from Texas and my mama taught me to not piss all over myself.

glad i saw this. i would’ve missed it altogether
guess it’s live updates on my phone in class for me
go cards! let’s get win no 18 for my boy adam

haven't actually started homework
and once the game starts, i doubt i actually will. the homework is so mind-numbing anyway, i have a hard time focusing on it even when i’m actually focusing on it.
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 1:52 PM EDT up reply actions
i would but
it’s calculus and if i miss a day, i’m way the shit behind
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
yeah, you're telling me
i missed one day because i went back home for the weekend and it took me 6 hours of hitting the book to get everything figured. and this is still the beginning of the semster, so pretty basic stuff
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
luckily i transferred calculus from high school and didn't have take it in college
but i tried calc 2 in college. first try, dropped it the first week. second try, dropped it the seventh week. i’ll never take a calc class again.
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 1:55 PM EDT up reply actions
calc 2 is a required course for me
gonna take it at community college, though. i’ve heard math classes at universities are a bitch
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
i'll get an A, though
damnit. no derivative is standing in my way
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
derivatives are easy
it’s integrals to look out for. they are an absolute bitch.
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 2:00 PM EDT up reply actions
yeah,
the derivatives are pretty easy. it’s all we’ve learned so far
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
well
and finding tangent lines and a few other things
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
that sort of sucks
but still not as bad as integrals. did you have a whole unit on limits before starting any actual calculus?
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 2:04 PM EDT up reply actions
we spent one class on limits
then derivatives, then tangent lines, then kind of putting it all together. and now i’m here
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
yuck
and that’s why i’m glad i took it in high school when we had a whole two semesters. we spent two weeks on limits before we even started calculus. really helped.
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 2:08 PM EDT up reply actions
calc 2 was required for my minor
and i promptly dropped the minor. it was just too hard, and the professors show no mercy at all. you don’t get it one day, you don’t get the whole unit. and that’s just too bad for you.
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 2:00 PM EDT up reply actions
that's how this professor is
it’s been like 2 years since i’ve taken college algebra and he just throws all this at us expecting us to know all this algebra crap. which i guess is fair, but it still sucks
i just want to know why i have to be such a mathematics wizard to get a business degree
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
+4,000
i only had to make it through calc 1. what kind of business are you?
by stlcardinalsfang on Sep 9, 2009 2:03 PM EDT up reply actions
undecided thus far
but UT requires calc 2 for any bachelor in business
probably MIS, though
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
if not MIS,
then economics
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.

this one is specialized, but it works for the entire economy as well. the real mark of the economy is never on the line or outside of it.

that's crappy

economics without rates of change is impossible
I took micro in a class that didn’t require calc as a prereq, and it was awful. Concepts like elasticity are just clunky without derivatives.

that’s why i’m leaning more toward management information systems. i’m actually pretty good at math, i just hate it

i really enjoyed microeconomics
much more than macro. and i agree the calculus really helped with those kind of things.

Oh I know what you mean...
I had to drop calculus twice before taking it during the summer session. Having it every day really helped me retain the material.

idle thought -- if the memphis and springfield clubs go very far in the postseason,
is there really going to be any point in calling up extra hands that don’t need rule V protection? like, is royce ring really going to save the club by pitching to three batters in that last week?
maybe if homefield advantage is still in play, then it will matter. i could see the callups being pretty limited, though.

Boog
not his fault: stealing second w/ albert up.
subject to criticism: flipping the ball to first without setting his feet. 2×. almost through the ball away and/or got the mang injured.
I just think it's funny
I’m as appalled by the nature of his misplays as anyone else.
But only Boog…. only Boog could have such a great game on paper yet piss off everyone in the process.

follow on to derosa discussion in the main thread today.
strauss follows leach’s lede:
While also reiterating strong interest in retaining pending free agent left fielder Matt Holliday, Mozeliak allowed that extending DeRosa before season’s end is more likely than finalizing what would almost certainly be more intricate talks for Holliday.

so i don't know if anybody else is as pathetically nerdy as me
but… I noticed that SBN has had 20 million comments and I started wondering how many of those were us here at VEB… so I ran some numbers to see if I could get an idea….
I figured around 800 comments per each game thread (judging by the numbers of comments for the last few games) and we usually hit 2 overflows. usually the 2nd overflow was about half the first two threads. sooooo… 800 * 2.5 at 162 games per year comes to approximately 324,000 comments per season

In other words,
He got an owie on his knee, and since we’ve already won the series, and we’re now up in this game, he might as well have some well-deserved rest.
Leach says,
“Holliday left with bruised left knee.”

so if we run that through the lens of truth that means he is out for the season?

Announcing a DeRosa extension?
Or just giving the party line about acquiring good players for the stretch run?

damn Mcegheeheeehvhheeheh
Chuck Norris doesn't need a bat.
he just roundhouse kicks the ball out of the park.
According to the Preview for today's game,
(written by MLeach) Albert didn’t have a home run off of Suppan. Before today!
BOOG STOP IT.

Ahhh...
…I see that Albert Pujols, the St. Louis Cardinals baseball player who defends first base, has hit the baseball in such as way as to go over the outfield fence, thus creating a surplus of points which have increased the margin of victory for the baseball players from St. Louis. Cool.

There's a lot of bull in it...
Run Vince run! There's a tarp chasing you! Run! It's right behind you!
Indeed.
The batsman who earned his way onto the third station was a young whippersnapper named Kobe Raspberry. He’s a quite strapping lad.

hands gnarled and full of wisdom, his hair a shock of wheat.

damn pirates just roll over for everyone else

How many pitches was WW at when the 6th inning started in Pittsburg this week?
When he gave up his montly quota of runs. I wonder if he hits a little wall halfway through the game. At least he did better today.
The Cardinls have never gone to a World series in a year ending in 9. Every other year they have: 1930, 31, 42, 82, 43, 34, 44, 64, 85, 26, 46, 2006, 67, 87 , 28 & 68. But no 9s, Could this be the year?
yeah, well,
they’ve been rolling over for us too lately. They just didn’t want to last year or the first half of the season
