You're the fail to my win?

Yeah, wtf
Anyways, I ended up emailing the head of scouting yesterday… Lunch date planned for when he’s at USC!
Of all sad words of tongue or pen; the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
how did you end up phrasing the email;
This comment was brought to you by the Tyler Greene for Third Base campaign.
I told him I read about the USS Mariner event with him, Tony, and Jack Z, and that I would've loved to go to
Asked him how things were on his end, and that he should draft Ricky Oropesa
Told him about how my senior year is going
Said I thought I remembered that he’d be at USC in November… that we should meet up for lunch then
Of all sad words of tongue or pen; the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
nice.

Let's play "Predict the Lineup."
My guess

Pujols – 3
Holliday – 7
Stav – 9
Floppy – 4
Boog – 6
Anderson – 2
Garcia – 1
TLR said that Yadi'd get Tues or Weds off.
It said so in the little, blue-text box to the left of the main page here.
LHP on the mound tonight though, doesnt anderson hit left?

2 for 1 Tickets in Memphis
It’s buy 1, get 1 free for playoff tickets in Memphis. There’s also a $25 deal for a ticket in the club level and an all you can eat buffet for the playoffs

Is that today only, or throughout?
’Cause if it lasts to Friday or the weekend, it might be worth the drive.
Good for All Home Playoff Games
Memphis will be on the road in Oklahoma City this weekend. If they do beat OKC, the AAA Redbirds will be at home on Friday, September 17, and Sat. and Sun. Sept. 18-19, if necessary, for the PCL Championship Series.

I Go Back to the Memphis Chicks Days
I’ve supported the Memphis minor league teams going back to the days of the Memphis Chicks. My favorite major league team is the Cubs. It wasn’t quite so awkward for me with the Chicks with their affiliation with the Expos and Royals. Hey, the Iowa Cubs come to Memphis to play eight games a year now, so that’s not so bad. It’s a heck of a lot cheaper for me to see the AAA Redbirds play the I-Cubs than it is for me to see the Cardinals play the Chicago Cubs.
"The big possums walk late." - Harry Caray
do you get a hard time in memphis wearing cubs' gear?
"Moneyball: It's kind of like communism."
twatter
Not Really
I only wear the Cubs gear in Memphis when the Iowa Cubs are in town. There are always a lot of Cubs fans that come to those games. I’ve got a lot of Memphis Redbirds gear that I’ll wear, when Memphis is playing a team other than Iowa. I’m just glad that Memphis has a AAA team now. There’s also a AA team affiliated with the Mariners just an hour and 10 minutes up interstate 40 in Jackson, TN, that I see about a half a dozen times a year. I’ll wear my Cubs gear up there, when the soon to be Jackson Generals play the Tennessee Smokies, the Cubs AA team.

MY APOLOGIES TO ANYBODY OF LATVIAN DESCENT ON THIS BOARD
Wall of texts incoming
Three Latvian are brag about sons. "My son is soldier. He have rape as many women as want," say first Latvian.
"Zo?" second say, "My son is farmer. He have all potato he want!"
Third Latvian wait long time, then say, "My son is die at birth. For him, struggle is over."
"Wow! You are win us," say others.
But all are feel sad.
Of all sad words of tongue or pen; the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
...
A foreigner in a Latvian bar tells the following joke to the bartender:
A redskin potato, an idaho potato, and a latvian potato are on an airplane. One of the wings snap off. The redskin potato turns to the idaho potato and says, “There are only two parachutes!” The idaho potato replies, “That’s fine. Latvians don’t have potatoes!”
The bartender thinks for a moment, and replies, “Where did potatoes land?”
Of all sad words of tongue or pen; the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
...
One day Latvian man have knock at door. “Who is?” ask Latvian man
“Is magical man,” say voice, “I come to give happy and many potato to all!”
“Oh joy!” Latvian man say, opening door
“I am lie,” says other man, “Is secret police.”

(It's because Latvians are poor and famished and need potatoes to live)

The only incomprehensible decisions there are Fat Miles and Catcher Miles.
I suppose we could have done worse…
You know, I'd really like to see this organizational fascination with kids of former org members come to an end.
Two years from now, are we going to be forced to watch Joaquin Oquendo and Chick Mason butcher plays in the middle infield and struggle to hit their weight?
gagnozzi is tom's nephew, but i get your point

OK, just saw that the Bandits are playing Kane County
Unfortunately, I wasn’t prepared to see them tonight (no long sleeves or jackets, no Cardinals wear), so I am heading home. Is this round of the MWL playoffs best of 5? If so, and assuming no sweep either way, Kane County’s stadium is about an hour from where I work up here behind enemy lines, and Game 4-5 would likely be Saturday-Sunday.
Solanus and I would be willing to organize a Cardinals cheering section for all who are interested in attending, possibly including fronting for a block of seats to keep everyone together. If there’s enough of an initial interest here, Solanus or I will fanpost the official sign-up sheet.

5 Saves in 5 days. 11 straight scoreless innings. Awesome. Redbirds remain en fuego.
Reifer throws his second inning at AAA, sports a thrifty sss 0.00 era. I like that Maloney is putting him right into key moments in a playoff series. Is he Motte: The Sequel?
