  1. It was a nice diving play by Busch (kinda weird seeing a Busch play for the Cubs )
  2. Kinda stopped my heart with that last liner by Outman (what a name for a hitter), but I don't mind close games...Just win!
  3. The poster child for crappy umping...Mongo McMichael was right about this clown all along...
  4. Semolina is simply used to keep the dough from sticking...it does become part of the crust, but only surface level... Worked at Dominos for a couple of years, and that's what they use it for...They keep the dough itself cold, and that helps with the stickiness too...
  5. Where does Perkins factor in, if at all? I'm a big Tony Perkins fan, and while I know some look simply at the 3 point numbers, Tony brings 3 things we sorely lacked last year...Experience, leadership, and toughness... Can't overlook intangibles when we're rating these kids...
  6. Gonna make my yearly pitch... The FAA is hiring controllers again... https://www.faa.gov/be-atc Be a U.S. citizen Be registered for Selective Service, if applicable (Required for males born after 12/31/1959) Be younger than 31 years old before the closing date of the application period (with limited exceptions) Have either three years of general work experience or four years of education leading to a bachelorโ€™s degree, or a combination of both Speak English clearly enough to be understood over communications equipment Be willing to relocate to an FAA facility based on agency staffing needs The pay can get way up there if you're in the right facility and location...
  7. I know what you mean though... One of my daughter's boyfriends back in the day was watching a Cubs game with us... I was getting something from the kitchen when something happened, and I asked what was going on... He said, "the Cubs scored a point" Then I heard my daughter say, "uh oh"
  8. Watching Bucs-Nats, and I'm not sure there's anybody in this era that I'd rather hear call a game than Bob Carpenter... The consummate pro...
  9. Fidler off the board... But a 75% chance we'll see him next year...
  10. Well, at least he'll look more at home with his shirt off... Wait...He was in Arkansas...Never mind
  11. Ant is a Michigan dude, so I think it's just to hype the program... Hershey Steelpecker's money is on Texas ๐Ÿ™‚
  12. 50 years ago today, #714...
  13. Only Cliff E I could think of was former Clemson and Auburn coach Cliff Ellis... I think he's in his 80s ๐Ÿ™‚
  14. Ah, God I love baseball humor...๐Ÿ˜‚
  15. I went to do other stuff when it got to 8-2...Guess I shoulda stuck around ๐Ÿ™‚ I'll just add I think Seiya is going to have a great year. He's killing it right now. And, like you said, they seem to be more patient at the plate... Here's to an exciting summer๐Ÿป
  16. Or โ€œNo matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference.โ€ โ€• Tommy Lasorda
  17. I know Joc Peterson wore pearls a couple of years ago, but Jorge Barrosa of the D Backs wearing what looks like an expensive diamond necklace versus the Yankees... I don't know if it's real or not, but if it is ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
