Did anyone go to the game last night
I scalped tickets and ended up spending more on parking ($15) than tickets ($8). Crazy.
If it wasn't for college football I'd probably have given up on sports.
Yeah, it’s not right that you could buy three tickets for the cost of parking and a beer.

Is it true
that they doubled the cost from last year? Seems insanely high.
As much walking around as I did trying to find where I parked after I might have to research safe places to park outside of the stadium that are free.

Remember when Ethier couldn't buy a start?
and now he leads the team in Homers and without looking most likely triples?

Loney somehow has a ton of them this year.

I knew that
just couldn’t remember who had more. Point is maybe we’d be in a better position had Ethier got more playing time early on.

Ditto on Yahoo
which is a shame.

Tecmo is so horribly broken
I played a roster update version and realized how broken and not particularly fun it is. I think this one was better left to nostalgia.

You mean you played a copy of the new one?

This does a pretty good job at explaining why Tecmo Bowl won’t get old:

I’m rapidly finding myself agreeing with this:
What? You got a job already? You fucking idiot. The average child now leaves his parents’ house at age 26 (46 if you blog). Why are you heading out the door so soon? Where you gotta be? Your parents could already afford American college, the most ludicrous expense on Planet Earth. Milk that fucking teat a little more. If you can’t finagle a year backpacking in Europe when you get out of school, or a year "tutoring" 18-year-old ski bunnies at Breckenridge, or a year scooping ice cream in Hilton Head, YOU HAVE FUCKING FAILED LIFE.

It’s a 2 minute clip of Christian Okoye breaking tackles in Tecmo Super Bowl.

I’m not sure why they don’t just put all the old NFL players in Tecmo Bowl DS that were in the original. You don’t have an NFL license anyway and they aren’t on any teams.

Sadly, it would destroy the mystery of what I actually look like.

Of course, I choose the time where I have my picture up where I look cross eyed.

I always have one of those “I forgot to shave for about a week” beards going on in half the pictures people put up of me, which always looks bad.

This would be an orange alert, right?

BP Playoff Odds have risen 10 percent since they started winning.

I know we’ve got a lot better chance now, just saying we were never in dire straights or anything.

We weren’t really ever out of it, with the teams in our division.
by Brendan Scolari on Sep 2, 2008 9:06 PM PDT up reply actions
Man, we've looked great these past few days...
Where was this team in Philly and D.C.???
Is that good or bad? He’s definitely got the bat for the position. Well his defensive shortcomings outweigh his offensive?
Also, when are you going to punch TC in the face for all his LaRoche bashing?
by Tango and Cash on Sep 2, 2008 9:15 PM PDT up reply actions
I’m pretty sure TC could kick my ass easily, so no time soon.

What about calling him some bad names?

Really?
That high? You don’t think Hu could go there and Dewitt could go back to third? I guess the followup then is do you see us resigning Casey Blake?

Pierre hurt...
Not that you wanna see anyone get hurt, but this doesn’t really hurt us does it?
Tango: They said on the broadcast August 20. It does feel like forever. I though he would be platooning the rest of the way afte the first wek with Manny.
He was being taken out as I said that! Don’t blame the messenger, man! Attica!

Damn no cycle. On the plus, I just got my cron job working, so I get to go home.

Argh, Martin DP.
I wanted to see Hu get an at-bat.
Inland Empire
I know everyone’s gone to bed now, but …. if you’re still up and care about Single-A ball, Inland Empire is fighting Rancho Cucamonga for the last California League post-season spot.
They’re playing a one-game playoff and they’re tied 6-6 in the bottom of the 9th!! Catch the audio feed from ie66ers.com, it’s been a barn-burner.
Have I been bashing
LaRoche? Just because Marte is outhitting him for the honor to be called the biggest prospect bust of the 21st century is hardly bashing him.
At some point he is going to go off or we are going to find out, he and his brother are big time stoners and the worse thing they could have done was partner them together.
I don’t want to say anything nice about DeWitt and his play at 2nd so far. The last time I commented on how well Nomar was looking he decided to turn into a piece of crap.
There is usually a reason when someone takes a lousy picture 95% of the time…
Ouch. Did you really have to go there?
Co-Author Of The Fourth Most Popular NL West Based Blog On SBN
To my credit, most of the people I know are amazed at my inability to take pictures.

Carmel Kiss
is camera shy but it is better then having the bald palette rocket light off it when a flash is used.
Hey, the caramel kiss looks awesome, it’s just really unfortunately named.

Think outside the L'oreal's Feria color matrix
when someone asks what color you used, you don’t have to answer with what was on the box. You are free to call it whatever you like depending on the situation.
