I see Teel with an ear buds, not sure if it's from the bench calling pitches, but I'm wondering if  the replay crew watching on a monitor could be telling (very quickly) which pitches to challenge. 

Or is Teel listening to Taylor Swift music

Taylor Swift?  Hes from New Jersey!

Probably My Chemical Romance…

I have watched Casablanca about 20 times. My all-time favorite film.

Second best Bogie movie (behind The Maltese Falcon).

That didn’t age well.

He’s been really good for 2 outs; getting the 3rd one’s been an issue.  He only needed to get 2 outs tonight.

He stinks and his ERA proves it.  I don't trust him on the mound.

Remember when Trevor Richards didn’t look like your high school math department head?

Sit him for who?

He did double tonight and. scored the 4th run. He had another pretty well hit ball to left (needs to do that at home more).

Yeah, my comment wasn't well-timed, was it?  But hey, I had to say SOMETHING to get him going.

Sidney Greenstreet could definitely steal a scene.

Plus any movie is better when you don’t kill Peter Lorre…

He just wasn't leading man material.

KC Royals right-fielder Tyler Tolber just flied out. after getting a hit in last 12 consecutive at abats, tying Red Sox's Walt Dropo's record from 1952.

The better Sox won.

IMO, one of the two best ever.  I go back and forth between Casablanca and The Godfather.

Godfather 1 & 2? I found them equally great.

[vegasbob]

Very good win and effort on mound (X Coulombe) and at bat including instant runs by HR

Godfather 3 should have been left on the cutting room floor.

Godfather 1.  2 is in my top 5 or so.

Interesting fact: James Caan was originally cast to play Michael.

3 wasn’t that bad IMO, but it doesn’t come anywhere close to the first 2.  Hard for any sequel to measure up, and impossible for a second one.

The only other sequel I can think of that equalled the original was Aliens.

Can we include Evil Dead 1 & 2?

They were basically the same movie, something I call a “requel”…

Despite the contemptible person he did become, Lethal Weapon 2 was another good sequel…

I'm a big fan of Sam Raimi. His film A Simple Plan was another favorite of mine.

Happened to watch the great Western, The Good, The Bad And The Ugly the other day for about the 10th time in my life. Recently discovered it was picked the #1 perfect Western of all time.

Outstanding pick, but I prefer The Outlaw Josey Wales.  It was deep for a western.

His newest film Send Help is typical Raimi.

Those two along with Unforgiven is one hell of a Western trifecta.
