Open Thread in an attempt to get more than one hit
Atlanta Braves at Los Angeles Dodgers, Jul 8, 2008 10:10 PM EDT
What a miserable season. Just when we thought the season couldn't sink any lower we almost get perfecto'ed by Hideo Nomo's doppleganger.
Imagine if we had Andruw Jones on our team this year, imagine the black hole that our outfield would be in that scenario. Francoeur would not have gotten demoted because he's hitting 75 points higher that AJ.
A few more of these losses and we should be in full sell mode. I'm not sure if I want us to lose a few more so that we can make some trades for prospects or if I want us to win some more so we feel like we're still in the race. I've said it several other times, but the underachieving style of this team makes me afraid that if they seem like they're getting back into it, that it won't last long and we will have missed our opportunity at more than just two draft picks.
Perhaps the new homeboy upstairs should just roll the dice:

Lineup
I’ve said it before….if we keep trotting out a lineup that regularly features Gotay, Infante, Norton, and some of the others of that ilk, a championship team we will not be.
thank you captain obvious. gotay shouldn’t even have a roster spot considering we now have 3 utility iF on the roster
Not been announced yet, best I can tell.
All I found was that Smoltz was moved from 15-day DL to 60, freeing up room on the 40-man roster, but no word on moves to the 25-man. I wonder if its bye-bye Lillibridge?

Jeason Perry is the odd man out
per Dave at the AJC,
“Perry is, as expected, the guy moved to make room for Tavarez on the 25-man.”
found ths today
“That deal was signed a long time ago, so you forget about the little sidebars, as far as your contract goes, when you immerse yourself in the game,” Jones said. “I’m not worried about the money. I’ve made my money in this game. I just want to get back healthy and get back to the point where I’m producing at a high rate like I was earlier in my career. The people who play this game just for the money, they’ll get weeded out eventually. I’ve never played this game for love of the money.”
love that man
I also love that man.
We cannot both love him, we will have to prove who is worthy.
In all seriousness, I remember when he did that and I pretty much gained lifelong respect for him there. Made me overlook some of his other transgressions…

Looks like gondeee put down the moonshine and sex on the beaches to actually post the open thread. I was hoping to post this earlier:

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I can't wait for the sequel!
And then the finale, the Next Curacao Kid, when Jair is replaced by a chick who later breaks her next boxing and her coach Clint Eastwood pulls the plug on her.

It's as legitimate

I think...
The closest scenario to that I could possibly do is the next time the Jair starts against the Detroit Tigers. Whew, two years off… unless interleague changes its stupid rules again.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
At some point, I’d want to re-do the first image, because I’ve found better Bobby Cox images to use. Jair, on the other hand, is really hard to find decent images of – he’s too new.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Why, because of his grill?

I'd like to put forth.
That hopefully the early crappiness of this season will convince Wren to trade Tex. He can get something good for him I know it, and this season has been a horrifying parade of injuries and under performance. So just do it already!
Man, I could go for some Carabba's lasagna!
I could eat it every week, every other day.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
hello all...
I’ll be in and out tonight, as my tv and computer are in separate locations. Getting a laptop soon, though! Yay!
Is this a recent development (the separate locations)?
Or, do you normally not watch the game.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
well...
I watch if it’s an evening game and it’s on SportSouth. I don’t post a lot because I’m usually a little behind the action because I like to pause and skip the commercials, but I sometimes drop in for a little while. If it’s on Peachtree, I listen on the radio and post more. It’s not that far from the computer to my living room, but I can’t see it from here.
It's raining cats and dogs...
In Atlanta right now. If my satellite gets knocked out, I’m going ballistic.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I would take a dish over Bright House
My service random screws up for no reason, it doesn’t even have to be raining.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I have Time Warner (ironically) and I rarely have problems. Even if I do, service calls are no charge.
Ha!
Its $10 if you want them to bring a new box to you! Which, incidentally you have to do before they schedule a service call. The office is on the other side of town, it the honest-to-Pujols ghetto. You spend $10 in gas to get there and maybe your tires, but that’s the name of the game. Cable out? Better make sure its between the hours of 9-5 PM M-Th (4:00 on Fridays, who doesn’t want to start their weekend early?) and 9-2 PM on Saturdays. Otherwise, you’re better off closing your eyes imagining what TV looks like, because you’ll never get a-hold of anybody…I’m a bit bitter.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I have a similar situation as sddbaker with computer in one room, tv in another…sadly, not enough in the budget for a laptop right now. Suffering through Crap Carey on the radio.
Am being forced into switching cable providers…BellSouth Entertainment is being phased out. Was supposed to get dish today but they wanted tops of trees cut when they came (this morning), so they rescheduled. Just turned on the tv and got snow – don’t know if they cut service or if the storm messed it up. Oh well, rather be with you guys anyway.
We get complaint calls in the Consumer Action Center about all the providers, unfortunately.
We'd rather have you too. :3
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
laptops are great...
...but now I cannot go anywhere without it. Even if I have no reason to bring it, I feel incomplete without it.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
It kinda kills me...
that they issued one to my co-worker about four months ago, and she put it in a bookbag in the corner of the file room, and it’s been there ever since.
But then again it’s a work-issued one. But still…
Work-issued
Still accesses the internets. Now unless security measures restricted a lot of access, you wouldn’t have any problem.
My laptop weighs a ton, and I don’t use it nearly as much as I used to. Thinking about investing in something a tad lighter.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
A Macbook Air?
but don’t be like Kanye and TYPE SO HARD THAT YOU BREAK IT!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Hells no
I work on an Apple all day. People who think Macs are so great don’t really like me too much.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I hate Macs.
I’d rather have a Commadore 64.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
But what about
Your beloved laptop? It’ll get jealous.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
No...
My laptop and I are in an open-relationship. But, basically I get to use other computers, but nobody else uses it. Its a good situation.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
What can I say?
I have a gift.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I bet
When you walk by an Apple store, the iMacs with the swivel heads all turn and watch you go by.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
that's only if I were to walk into an Apple store.
I never have, never plan to. No iphones, ipods, or ipotties for me.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Didn't spend much on the laptop...
it’s used. I bought it in a government auction. It may end up being a piece of crap. Plus I don’t know yet how I’m going to get it. It’s in Asheville, NC, and I’m looking for someone to pick it up for me and ship it. I have a couple of possibilities.
If I go to Raleigh again
Which is pretty frequently, and you don’t have your laptop yet, I’ll pick it up for you. But then again, it’ll just end up in Atlanta, still far from TN…

i pick billingsley. dude is NASTY
i see 2 buckets of bubble gum in the dodgers dugout. whats your choice: DUBBLE BUBBLE or BAZOOKA?
for me, nothing beats a good…slab of bazooka
Uuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhh
I get so frustrated with Crap Carey getting freakily excited about the other team’s plays.
He's easily amused
He declared Andy Pettitte vs. Fausto Carmona as the greatest pitching matchup in the history of baseball playoff matchups.

If he could just get grizzled and jaded

He didn't K
And went the other way. I’m optimistic.

one of the scariest times i've ever had in the braves clubhouse
was when i caught a glimpse of a naked chino cadahia…. sort of reminded me of those times on family guy when they show peter naked, but scarier because it’s real

I know why we brought him on...
Wren reads TC, and realizes the ire that Boyer, Acosta and Towel receive. He brought in a guy that all of that hatred can be immediately directed to, 100%, taking the pressure off of the others. See how well Boyer pitched tonight? They said Smoltz coached out a flaw in his delivery, but I think the mentality that no matter what he does, he won’t be the most hated reliever, was more than enough to calm his nerves.

It might be pricey… but we need to get a group of TC’ers, and actually go to Carrabbas.

Anyways
This was a fun thread. Drunk gondeee, jug’s fupas, and all the other tomfoolery of a mood elated by runs scored.
Rules:
Heap
Jair
Escobar
Sucks:
Russell Martin and his two errors
Julian Tavarez
In short:
Game: Jair 2, Andruw 1
Season: Jair 5, Andruw 1 (4 Ks)
Conclusion: Jair Jurrjens is the best player from Curacao
The end. Same time tomorrow, everyone.
