4/8 vs Rays

[Kimmi]

And Cshman is the town drunk.

 

And Boone is a doofus.

Beni's BA is just inches from JBJ's.

 

But check out his OBP.

[Larry Cook]

Revenge is a dish best served cold!!!!!

 

Makes up for the opening day fiasco!

 

Now we need the big three to put a big hurt on New York.

[Kimmi]

There's nothing wrong with having a bit of luck to win a game. A lot of times luck plays a huge factor in a win.

 

!!!

[Kimmi]

Awesome game, and great game thread!

 

And the Yankees lose on top of it!

 

Let's go!

[bmattioli]

Yes I was for years and was wondering what happened.. Now I'm here..

[bmattioli]

Is there anyone on this board who was on the Red Sox board on the MLB.com site?

 

Meant to add the quote..

Perfect day in my book.

Many years ago. I don't remember my login there.

I think wearing those Devil Rays uniforms during the opening series might have been a poor omen for those guys. No one launches a brand new ocean liner wearing Titanic throwback caps, and there's a reason for that.

I was too and one day I logged on and the board was taken down. There were quite a few good posters over there but there were also a sh*t ton of trolls that had turned that place upside down over the past year or so. I'm just glad I found another board with a lot of die-hard, knowledgeable Red Sox fans to converse with.

 

Now I'm here as well and I'm enjoying it.

Lol. This most likely explains my delight bordering on giddiness when I saw the Rays’ sporting their throwbacks. It’s not like they were of great design. That and I’m sure it pissed off 5 or so Floridian fundamentalists somewhere.

[Bellhorn04]

Stanton heard it big time at Yankee Stadium for his second golden sombrero of the weekend series.

 

I have to double correct you there but it's all good.

 

Stanton struck out 5 times April 3 vs the Jays and 5 times yesterday.

 

Not the double golden sombrero...the double 'platinum sombrero' or some such thing.

 

Wow that is some serious flailing.

[kenmeister]

Perfect day in my book.

 

???

 

I'm worried sick about Xander Bogaerts.

[kenmeister]

Couldn’t catch the game, seems it was epic.

 

It’s clear ERod always will go deep in the count. He paid today for it. Keep Velazquez in the rotation and send EaRod to BP.

 

ERod is frustrating I know but I'm optimistic he'll settle into a groove after a few starts and give us quality ones from thereon out. That said, I'm not opposed to trying a partial 6 man rotation. Could be a great way to keep everyone fresh. What I call a partial 6 man rotation is that in a stretch without off days, you use 6 starters. When there are off days, you fall back to 5 starters. That means the 6th starter makes occasional starts and is otherwise the long man out of the pen.

Jackso says he's a dolt.

I always thought the "Devil Rays" was a nice nod to the thriving death metal scene in Tampa. http://wusfnews.wusf.usf.edu/post/born-tampa-death-metal-making-comeback

Boone is Olaf from Frozen. It's funny for the first 2 minutes, then you want the sun to come out and melt his face away.

Not an ERod fan, but agree it makes sense to give him a real shot. I do not think a 6 man rotation is needed. Better I think to have Johnson/Velazquez for long relief, to say nothing of the value of having a spare arm--which has already been the case--for the rotation. Up ahead is the return of Pomeranz and maybe even Wright.

Obituary. Hehe. I had ‘World Demise’ at some point.

"Cause of Death" is a classic IMO.

Hey, some of us actually fall within Frozen's target audience. Wait, I'm not a 6-16 year old girl. It's still one of my favorite movies though, and I'm not ashamed to say it

Thunder, that is the worst Disney/Pixar movie my kids have forced me to watch (post 2000 titles). Frozen was so bad that they got bored the first 2 viewings and wanted to turn it off.

[S5Dewey]

FWIW, I don't think this is a Pixar movie but my (grand)children dragged me to see "A Wrinkle in Time" last weekend. I STRONGLY recommend you avoid this waste of time at all cost. It's two wasted hours of my time I'll never get back.

[Youk Of The Nation]

The book is a classic, though.

I actually liked Frozen too. Doesn't beat Lion King as my favorite Disney movie, but I definitely enjoyed it.

Of the ones, I've seen, which is not many, I like Cars, The Incredibles, Up, Finding Dory, Monsters U, Inside Out, Wreck It Ralph, Gnomeo and Juliet.

 

In fact, I'll change my mind. My new top 5 is:

Inside Out

Wreck It Ralph

Frozen

Monsters University

Finding Dory

 

The reason I moved those two up is because I forgot that I had cried at the end of them

[bkzwhitestrican]

1. Up

2. Finding Nemo

3. Toy Story

4. Wall-E

5. Kung Fu Panda

 

All other lists are obsolete.

AHAHAHAHA. this is pure gold.

[Slasher9]

FACT.

wall-E is the best pixar movie ever. Cars is a close second.
