Mostly just watching TV tonight, y’all…have to get up super early in the morning so can’t stay up late after the game, either. I will check in at some point a bit later, though…
Have fun and GO SOX!
Hi everyone! Hope everyone had a great day.
I’m glad I’m not sitting with the cowbells tonight!
It’s time for the bats to wake up
Go Sox!
ecl needs to join the 21st century & combine the computer & tv experience.
fc, I’m still here…how would I do that? Buy a MLB.tv subscription? Or get a laptop or bring it into the bedroom? I don’t know other ways to do that, so you’ll have to enlighten me (you’re welcome to add a comment over at my LJ if you don’t want to clutter up the thread).
Laptop, ecl. And you know I kid because I love, right?
And, HOT SHIT Pedey!
Yeah Pedey!
P.S. to fc…I can’t afford a laptop, if that’s what you had in mind…took me a couple of years to scrape up the funds for this desktop.
Pleats you were supposed to do that last night when I was there!
Whoops, sorry fc, didn’t know you were kidding! I had an incredibly intense day at work and my head is still spinning to the point where I’m not thinking straight or humorously. I need a beer, obviously. And thanks for the love, BTW!
Oops, sorry ecl. Just hoping for your company during the game.
5 minutes into the game and we’ve already had an affront and an apology. Like I always said, it’s not a prty till someone gets hurt!
My goodness, fc’s an ecl fan, or something like that! ;-)
I’m pretty good at running back and forth in between innings. Gotta fix din-din anyway so will be in close proximity to the ‘puter for awhile here.
No affront, fc…on top of being tired and frazzled, I simply don’t “get” humor most of the time. Has to do with a brain quirk that I’m saddled with. I forget, are you medical? If so, I inherited a few traits from my dad, who had Asperger. Makes for lots of social fun, not. I will say this, though…hanging out here is great bantering practice! I’m actually improving in that regard in my day to day life.
While I may be cited in several medical studies, I’m not medical by trade.
And I’m a sucker for anyone who will talk to me.
Howdy peoples! Just popping in to say hi. I’m not very good company today, but hope you all have a blast and enjoy the game. Pedey wants us to be happy! :)
GO SOX!!
Bethie! You had a rough day too? Hope the leg is better today.
Ha ha, fc…I must have gotten you mixed up with someone else here.
I hate Longoria. And WTF is the matter w/Dice-K?
C’mon, Dice-k, keep it together. Please.
ecl, you probably thought of me – nursing student
Dice just find the strike zone
Ah…Danielle, that’s right. Or mhcranberry, with an MPH.
Dice is a mess tonight.
Thank you Drew for ending that inning!
If Longoria had any change of me liking him, it ended when the Rays broadcasters compared him to A-Rod
I passed along the namecheck to mhcranberry – she says “hello from the goddamn cubicle farm” (working late)
Hey y’all!
I’ll join the “had a SUCKY day” crowd here. I love how management thinks I can work 12 hours a day regularly yet think what I do is easy. Kiss it.
Pleats: great!
Dice: ugh.
I don’t trust Tek in the clutch….
*I wonder if this’ll work again even if it is true*
Gotta run. Hubby and I are going golf club shopping. Yes, like I needed a new obsession ;-).
If only it would, Piney!
I actually get to check in on the game thread tonight! Whee!
YEAH YEAS MOSSY YOUK YAY YEAH
(A little starved for something positive)
Hello all! Sorry I’m late I was having dinner with my family.
Did you know: Lugo’s OBP is higher than Ellsbury’s? And Varitek’s?
I believe we may have the textbook definition of “damning with faint praise.”
The Rays broadcasters called Lugo “pesky” when he has two strikes on him … haha
Just got home from work. So tired, but so happy to be working. I’m glad it’s on tv, so I don’t have to switch back and forth online.
And Big Papi. And Dustin Pedroia. And Coco Crisp.
NOT NOW, THOUGH.
fc, you can pass along to mhc that ’twill be I in the goddamn cubile farm tomorrow…not sure what time I’ll actually get home. I’m taking a four-day weekend, though, so the homecoming will be oh so sweet.
Danielle, Lugo makes me laugh with his peskiness. He gave it a good try that last time around. Wish it had borne fruit.
Papi with a bat.
Nice to see.
*cubicle
(hates typos)
Rays fans don’t seem to be as annoying tonight.
Nice to see Papi at all! His presence always adds a smile to the day.
Erin, they didn’t get too annoying at the game last night til the end at least in my section. I practically lost my voice reminding the Rays fans what month it is since they seem to think the season ends tomorrow.
Dice-k find the K zone
Danielle- I was commenting last night on how annoying the cow bells were. I can only imagine what you were going through.
Dice-K needs to stop w/ the walks.
Yeah, that’s four walks so far. :-(
The cowbells are annoying but surprisingly not too bad in person! The cowbells to me at least seem worse on tv fo some reason.
I missed the first inning. Any K’s so far from him?
No just the 4 walks and 1 run
I’m not to sure about anyone else here but Kazmir is my favorite non- Sox pitcher. He used to be w/ the Mets system right?
Seeing this game on TV is actually the first time I’ve been able to hear the cowbells at all…
Erin – yes. He’s actually from my hometown – another guy who grew up less than 5 minutes away from where I lived – and was drafted by the Mets out of high school. He was signed to play with UTexas, and I still blame the Mets to this day for that not happening.
Move over, JD – Pedroia is ON FIRE.
EVERYONE: don’t forget – tonight’s the last chance to vote for the All-Stars.
And I just put a post up about it, and for reasons I cannot disclose at this moment, I would love it if everyone would stop by and comment (a lot) on the post.
