Use the comments to this entry as your own personal Gameday open thread. These open threads have been fun so far – so I’ll keep ‘em up as long as y’all are interested in having them.
Watching Casey is a little like watching a big ol’ grizzly bear try to run the bases.
HELL YEAH!!!!
yeah Taco….i’m stickin with that nickname, it makes me laugh!!
Awwww, J.P. – another Texas boy and fellow Longhorn.
Hello Peoples!!
Just got my video running. Do these announcers in Florida make it a habit to call players “that guy” instead of saying their name? LOL
Hiya Bethie!
Casey is hurt now?
Shit, Casey is injured. I feel bad for making fun of him running now:-/
Casey injured? Good thing we have Lowrie – and Mikey’s almost back.
Casey injured!!!!!!
noooooooooooooooooooo
Am I the only one who just starts laughing at Evan Longoria’s name?
At least we have two bench players tonight…on Wednesday, with Youks and Coco both injured, there was NO ONE available on the bench that wasn’t a SP:-P
choco-i was trying to come up with a clever desperate housewives comparrison, but the brains not functioning to well this week
Question: Am I the only one where whose had a good day today? I think so because today was pretty much good. I mean the beginning kinda sucked(stress + TV Production class = running around like a chicken w/ my head cut off) but it all worked out in the end :D
Bah. Not good.
Hi again. Had to eat.
Wakefield’s control isn’t looking good at all… but then again, Garza’s was much worse.
Piney- I had a good day today…my class ended early plus all of my lab stuff worked out, which is rare. And I had some delicious mexican food for lunch. It’d be better if this were a home game but that’s alright:-D
Piney, I had a decent day. I woke up in a good mood and although I got a little bit bored as the afternoon wore on, it was a reasonably good end of the work week.
Tampa’s field reminds me of crushed velvet. NOT a good thing.
I had a good day also. The weather was nice, so between my classes I sat by the pond on campus and watched the ducks.
I had a GREAT day today!!
Course, I’m leaving for a 5 day vegas trip on Sunday, so that might have something to do with it. :)
Ah…food…good idea. I’m sort of grazing tonight. Time to put together the next snack…
This looks eerily familiar.
Erin, that sounds so bucolic…a pond and ducks and sitting outside…
Shit…what’s going on here?
kristina- yeah I can’t think of anything either. it’s just so funny, though!!
Bethie — Vegas, how exciting! :-)
Nice Jacoby. I do wish your magic sleeve would make you throw a bit further, but it’s alright.
Whew. That ended as well as it could have.
Phew (wiping forehead)…
THAT was a pretty play.
Well….the bottom of that inning was just about ugly….
And whomever asked, Hinske got his ring before the game. The Red Sox players surprised him and gave it to him
ecl- I’ve been going to that pond ever since I was little. It makes me feel happy for some reason.
The baby ducks are going to hatch soon and I can’t wait! Although I shouldn’t get attached to some because there are two snapping turtles in the pond and rumor as it, that a few years ago one of them ate a baby duck.
Hip flexor strain for Casey. DTD now.
Casey’s day-to-day with a right hip flexor strain.
At my school (USF in Tampa! Go Bulls!) there was a pond that had ducks sometimes…but it also had alligators, so a lot of the ducks had a not-so-happy fate.
That would’ve been really hard to field… as much as I love Longoria, I like it that he didn’t get it.
Good party school USF :D
evan apparently doesn’t handle balls quite like gabby…ok that was bad, but give me a break, i finally broke a four day fever
Meghan- That reminds me of a scene from the movie Madagascar.
Erin, I remember some ponds of choice from when I was growing up. Such sweet places.
I’ve only been up close and personal with a snapping turtle once, when I lived out in the country some years ago, and I’m glad I figured out what it was before I picked it up to move it out of the driveway, LOL! I did pick it up…by the back of its shell…and tossed it into the pond!
Can someone tell ROTOWORLD that the Rangers game has started and that Saltalamacchia has been activated so I can pick him up.
Hahaha!! That was good, Kristina. I actually don’t follow Desperate Housewives, but I assumed Gabby was Eva’s character (and I checked IMDb, too…)
BJ Upton has a pretty swing.
YEAH! GO CASH.
Someone’s having control issues…
Oh, he was safe.
ecl-I’ve seen the turtle a few times. The second time I saw it, it freaked me out because it just splashed around.
I just love the ducks because they’re so cute. My Sister is at the pond sometimes with her kids feeding the ducks. My niece has names for most of the ducks and its really cute.
That call was close
Cash was MONEY right there….apparently I’m full of them tonight
Rob Drake likes to get his drink on. Drank with him when he came through the Eastern League.
WHOA. Was that Longoria whose at-bat song is “Yeah”?
Cashie!
He was safe though….but the Sox have had a lot of similar wrong calls lately so it works out.
