  1. Woooooooooooo hooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Sometimes I hate Vaz and his no meaning mound visits.
  3. I may not be right, but I'm all in on Wong for the win.
  4. Isn't Bobby pretty fast? I'm not sure I agree with the pinch runner thing.
  5. Why is the guy with the urine colored shoes yelling at the Sox bench?
  6. That was a body check. Is that legal now a days?
  7. A bit tense but Barnes takes care of Biz..... Who pitches the 10th for us though?
  8. Out........ Called it off the backboard.
  9. Mr. Better Find the Strike Zone
  10. Wow. Get out of this mess.
  11. From the article. Matt Barnes is a two-pitch pitcher – fastball and curve. He has a fastball spin rate in the 61st percentile, similar to where it’s been for most of his career, while his curve is only in the 12th percentile. A sudden increase in spin rate obviously isn’t the reason for the career-year the Red Sox closer is producing. I'm still a sceptic.
  12. Nice side step to the question. Have you ever seen Barnes bounce breaking balls for strikes this year? I'm not sure where to find spin rate stats. I'm like Barnes biggest fan cause his one of the RP who everyone likes to s*** on and he's been a super positive for us. But he hasn't and probably isn't no Mariano until this year. Which makes me think.....
  13. I fully expect Barnes to fall off the map with this stoppage of sticky stuff. Anyone have his spin rate comparisons compared to years before. He's a decent reliever and always has been, much better than the grief he has taken. But he never had the bend it and "bounce it on the ground and the batter swings" stuff he has this year.
  14. Thanks for the advice. Are you a life coach or something? Are you saying we should all just go knit a sweater or something?
  15. Gosh dang. I semi watched this game as I played it on the TV while some friends were over and no one else was paying attention to the game. Well, I got called out for swearing out of the blue as I check the score from time to time. This was a horror show. I recently mentioned that we hadn't had many games where we seemed out of it in the early innings. And we have had a heap of them in the last couple weeks. A couple of losses to the Jays really doesn't mean all that much. But how we are losing the last couple of weeks does.
  16. We ate at “La Casa de Toño” a few times. There was one just a couple blocks away from our hotel. We had the pozole. We couldn't believe a chain like that had such great food. And Moon, I had Rajas once in Mexico. It was a side dish. It was so good I had to ask the waiter what it was, I wanted to try to make it when I got home. I thought it was cactus and he told me chili. It kind of blew me away a simple vegetable dish was so good.
  17. We will be going in the next 365 days. Maybe end of year if things are good. As a food person. Who could cook you a dinner you'd never forget, and has tried great food all over the world. Mexico City blew me away. I'll look up some of those restaurants. You know, one of our favorite dishes in Mexico is Pozole. My wife in Asian, she won't eat Texmex. Pozole hits the spot for her. Add lime, cilantro, add some fresh chili in there. I'm a super fan also. Comfort food to me.
