4/12 A-Holes In The Infield.....
- Thread starter YTF
- Start date
Mrs. RR is having a not-great evening, so we decided to rewatch Firefly. Jumping over to the game/thread, I see this is a wise decision.
Going into tonight the Red Sox led the majors in unearned runs with 15. The Red Sox will be padding that lead tonight.
Agree there are more problems
Also agree we don’t know how much emphasis he puts on fundamentals
To me, the results are not up to par and he’s the leader on the field so needs to go given the sub par results over a long period of time
A discussion of Star Trek: Voyager's merits and shortcomings. Also, this team stinks.
ITP's reading habits
Dean Wormer mentions
Voyager recollections
Memories of the Boomer
@The Gray Eagle recalling the time he died on the Titanic
Not much else
The Angels sabermetrics department just noticed the starting pitcher was still in the game in the 7th inning and filed a protest with management
Dalbec has the body language of someone who knows his dream of being a good baseball player is over.
Funny. I almost watched Firefly. Decided on Agents of Shield. Got this abomination on my tablet on the coffee table.
On I Love Lucy, Lucy, Fred, and Ethel went to a MFY-Indians game in 1956. There she ran into then Indians co-owner Bob Hope and caused him to get hit in the head with a baseball.
It is the Achilles of science fiction - a short life, but everlasting glory. The pilot is a masterpiece of cut reaction shots.
Bangup job of the front office to not trade him for literally anything at any time when he still had grade value .
He was at the club, but shows up after the game and meets Bob Hope in the Indians locker room where Lucy pops in disguised as an Indians pitcher (complete with a Bobby V-esque fake mustache). Ricky recognizes her, clues Bob in, and they offer her a chaw of tobacco, which she swallows. They all do a dance routine dressed as umpires back in the club in the final scene. It ends with Hope doing one of his "fourth wall breaks" when, after being kissed by Lucy, he stares into the camera and says, "Hey, I may never go back to NBC."
There's two or three episodes that are some of the best episodes of science fiction television. Not quite best of Twilight Zone level, but close.
Meh. It felt like a mashup of two or three tired spec fiction tropes and somewhat derivative to me. Never went back after the second episode.
I feel like I've seen most of them. I'm surprised I haven't seen that one. (Funny how times have changed. That plot would never fly today.)
The Boomer photo reminded me that I lost my autographed 8x10 photo of Jimmy Piersall. He signed one for you if you bought a jar of pickles at the Stop and Save in Waterbury.
Of Firefly? Out Of Gas, Shindig, and of course Objects in Space.
Twilight Zone, that's a much harder list to make.
Duran had a nice oppo double off the wall in the 3rd inning.... and that was the last Red Sox hit of the game. Pathetic
