Hey, everybody!
I just got in from National Honors Society inductions. It was pretty boring (and I would have rather been watching the game), but I guess it’ll look good on college apps and stuff.
Did I miss anything good?
Liza- if you go here: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2008_05_12_bosmlb_minmlb_1&mode=gameday
then, beneath the picture of the batter there, you can go to pitch-by-pitch, play-by-play, or scoring plays. Go to scoring plays and you can see video and stuff.
1st inning: Coco got a double and scored by a single from Ortiz. Then Manny hit a home run. That’s ours, and I forget how they got theirs.
Nevermind, Jolie already did it.
Note to everyone: Ignore me.
Thanks guys–Gameday makes my computer flip out, though. I liked last year’s better. :P
And congrats, NJ, even if it was boring!
choco- haha, yes. That is how I survive. GAMEDAY FTW.
Thanks, Liza.
I live on GameDay, too. It’s faster than MLB Audio, though, which makes it confusing sometimes, but I don’t know what I’d do without it.
Yeesh. Not looking good for Buch.
Hey congrats, nj! Yes, that’s a good thing to have on your resume’.
(sigh…MFSOB)…
Bad.
badbadbad
FLUCK~
Oh boy. Here comes L-L-L-opez.
*covers eyes*
Aside from his game in Tampa Bay, why can’t Buchholz do well on the road?
sometimes buck likes to remind me how young he really is. he’ll grow into himself! i know he will …
At least the Celtics are playing better tonight
I have no idea–scouts have said he has “ice water running through his veins” so I don’t think he gets nervous… maybe he just likes consistency?
and Britney looked good tonight on How I met your mother
Drew 3-for-3? I’ll take it…
I never thought I’d say this, but: I wish all our bats were swinging as hot as JD’s bat.
I hope the Celtics win! Though I’ve been told I’m not allowed to follow them, because everytime I start following a team, they make it to the playoffs and then fail (see for reference: 2003 Red Sox, 2007 Patriots, 2007 Bruins). I’ll start following them next year…
HIMYM, The Office, and Top Chef are seriously the only three shows I watch on a consistent basis. And good to know, but don’t gimme spoilers yet, it’s being DVR’d and I’m gonna watch it soon.
Also, I’m not too concerned about the Red Sox….I got a feeling they could win this even if they’re down by 4
Did anyone else hear that guy yelling come varitek swing the bat. GODDDDDDDDDDDDd
HA. Youk and Manny crack me up.
Youk: I totally mocked your batting stance at softball today, so you should not be talking.
Um..exactly what were we watching there (Youk/Manny).
Youk ripping on Tek = awesome
Manny reminding Youk to also rip on Casey = awesomer
Suitable for posting?
I love The Office! I just started watching it but I love it.
It’s not my typical type of show I watch, but I really like it. I love to laugh, but my typical shows are about spies or figuring out crimes.
Video, fc? Surely- will do.
And I hate HATE sitcoms, but I watch the Office and 30 Rock.
aww I missed Youk and Manny snark? damn.
The Office is some pretty funny stuff!
also…I’m the only crazy one who has liked JD Drew all this time, huh.
Yay, video! Thanks, TG!
(By the way, I sent you an e-mail last week, and I was wondering if you got it…I don’t remember if I put a subject or not, so it might have gone to your spam folder…)
Oo yeah, 30 Rock! That’s one I’ve been slowly getting into.
I’m not too sold on much TV these days. Hell with How I Met Your Mother, it took me a little bit to get into it(It didn’t really pick up until like halfway into the first season) and most other actual sitcoms are just godawful or used to be good but are in their final seasons and suck(Scrubs, anybody?)
I watch every Monday night on CBS from 8-11. Than CSI NY and CSI vegas. my name is earl and the office
haha Alex Cora has a .700 batting average. WHOA BABY.
i agree Piney. Scrubs lost it’s luster this year.
Casey at bat is so funny. I saw him at Pawtucket and whenever he was up I started laughing hysterically. I was with a girl who didn’t know (or really care) about baseball and she’s like “what’s your problem?” and I’m like “dude, look at Sean Casey! I love him…”
(For the record, the only reason I went with a girl who didn’t even care about baseball is because we got AWESOME free tickets and my mom was taking my sister horseback riding, my dad had to work, my neighbor was celebrating his anniversary, so we asked some family friends, so the 22 year old guy was taking me along with his girlfriend, and so he took his younger sister that’s my age.)
Jolie, I’ve been a JD supporter, although I can’t say I’ve always liked his performance (and neither did he). And I just caught the tail end of Youk/Manny but I think the video will be coming to a blog near you soon.
Other than news, weather and sports, I don’t watch TV to speak of. Can’t remember the last time I followed a show.
I… don’t watch any TV except baseball. I’m a cool person like that.
Choco, do you ride horses too? (I’m not being creepy, you don’t have to answer if you don’t want–I ride, and if you do too, then I think we really are the same person.)
Jolie- I’ve loved J.D. for quite a while! Even when he was struggling.
By the way- does anyone know what his son had? I thought I heard some kind of hip problem… (I was born with some hip problem but the doctor caught it and fixed it so it’s pretty normal now. I have some limitations as to sitting positions and my running is slow, but other than that it’s fantabulous)
I wanna see that video too. Whatever happened must have been while I was fixing a snack.
This is ugly.
Yeah as much as they lost their luster, I still think Scrubs should at least get a proper sendoff. I think they’re moving to ABC for their final season just so they can do that last season over and end it on a good note. They were gonna end this year but due to teh writer’s strike, they got a little screwed over. Though I probably won’t watch the episodes leading up to the last one, but I’ll watch the last one. I’m weird like that.
This Writer’s Strike kinda mixed everything up.
Nice pickoff.
the writer’s strike messed all of tv up but they got what they deserved so it’s ok.
Video will come, I swearrrrrrrrrr.
I strongly dislike these cutoff sleeve unis.
Choco, I loved JD all last year too! And it was hip dysplasia.
Choco, all I knew was that his son was one years old and in a bodycast.
…what Liza said! /slow
OK, that was some nice fielding.
I loved JD too!
I lurk quite frequently, btw..
