acorncheese
05.26.11 | lol god damn. |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | (go reds) |
Scrambled
05.26.11 | yah this game is wtf |
Satellite
05.26.11 | baez has pitched FIVE innings of relief so far for the phillies. insane. |
Eko
05.26.11 | I guess I'd go Phils but I'm pretty impartial. |
MB05032
05.26.11 | Go Reds. To the 19th |
Satellite
05.26.11 | i don't give a shit who wins. i just want to see it go like 25 innings. the positional players will be pitching by then, if not sooner. |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | yeah i really don't care who wins but the phillies beat the rays in the world series so go reds. let it go until it's called off for a continuation. |
Eko
05.26.11 | valdez ftw |
theacademy
05.26.11 | let me know when it gets this weird:

(pelfrey getting the save) |
Eko
05.26.11 | a second baseman just pitched a scoreless inning so its about there |
Satellite
05.26.11 | i obviously never faced 95-mph fastballs, but i can say from experience that trying to hit someone who throws nothing junk pitches is extremely difficult when you're used to going up against heat. |
theacademy
05.26.11 | a second baseman just pitched a scoreless inning so its about there
felipe lopez did it |
MB05032
05.26.11 | I have faced 90-mph fastballs, and junk pitches are a welcome sight after getting blown away by the heat. |
theacademy
05.26.11 | pfsh 19 innings is nothing |
Satellite
05.26.11 | fucking wilson valdez gets the win lol |
Satellite
05.26.11 | where and when did you face 90-mph pitches, MB? |
Eko
05.26.11 | Great game. |
MB05032
05.26.11 | Haha save that ball |
Eko
05.26.11 | I've faced 80's in high school ball |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | well that was a bit disappointing |
Satellite
05.26.11 | 80's in hs happens, i faced it a couple times against dudes who went on to college/minors.
90's = exceptionally rare. |
MB05032
05.26.11 | High school baseball. Low 80's is average, 90 is the fastest I ever faced. |
Eko
05.26.11 | in high school yeah |
Satellite
05.26.11 | what mlb team does that dude pitch for now? |
Satellite
05.26.11 | "Low 80's is average"
lol no not even |
Eko
05.26.11 | yeah at good high schools it probably is |
Satellite
05.26.11 | MAYBE in florida |
MB05032
05.26.11 | I guess average wasn't the right word. Most of the pitchers I faced topped out around low 80's. |
MB05032
05.26.11 | in Ohio |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | sat if you had to pick, what is your favorite professional sports league? you seem to be equally knowledgeable in each sport. if you absolutely had to pick. |
Satellite
05.26.11 | league? hmm.
honestly i'd go with the mlb because i complain about it less than the others. the only thing i'd change is the stupid "whoever wins the all-star game hosts the ws" rule.
i like hockey slightly more as a sport, though. |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | was expecting nhl or mlb lol. mine's (probably obviously) the nfl, but it seems like the sports being ruined further year after year. it'll probably always be my favorite sport/league, but hockey is definitely the purest of all professional sports imo. |
Satellite
05.26.11 | up until like a year ago i probably would've said the nfl.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6586630
did you see this horseshit? |
tvol
05.26.11 | that was the longest game ever. i started watching it, watched jeopardy (one of my high school teachers was on), continued watching the game, had a two hour web conference, went back to watching the game, picked my girlfriend up from the airport, got home and started watching the game again. and then the reds lost. sucks. |
Satellite
05.26.11 | "that was the longest game ever."
not even close

05.26.11 | Can somebody PLEASE explain to me how to set up one of these list questions? |
Satellite
05.26.11 | also i sorta want to know when the last time a positional player recorded a win was but i can't find that bit of trivia anywhere. |
Satellite
05.26.11 | "Can somebody PLEASE explain to me how to set up one of these list questions?"
tell me what your list is going to consist of first. |
tvol
05.26.11 | i wasn't being literal with the longest game ever comment. i remember being up at 3:00 AM watching the reds play an 18 inning game in san diego (the infamous aaron harang game). that one seemed to last forever. |
tvol
05.26.11 | "also i sorta want to know when the last time a positional player recorded a win was but i can't find that bit of trivia anywhere."
if you listen to espn's baseball today podcast, i can almost guarantee they'll have that tidbit tomorrow. |
Satellite
05.26.11 | "Valdez became the first position player to become a winning pitcher since Colorado catcher Brent Mayne in 2000."
oh. |
tvol
05.26.11 | well there ya go |
tvol
05.26.11 | valdez pitched significantly better than paul "49.50 career ERA" janish did when he was the sacrificial lamb in 2009 against the brewers and phillies |
ckunke002
05.26.11 | Satellite... I imagine it would be a poll of some sort or a list of my favorite albums of a particular artist or year or something. |
ckunke002
05.26.11 | I've been trying to figure it out for a long time lol |
Satellite
05.26.11 | just go to your profile (by clicking your username), and click the "charts" tab. pretty self-explanatory from there. |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | wait you want to make a list? |
Satellite
05.26.11 | and go easy on rating things 5/5 or your ratings will get deleted. only your ABSOLUTE FAVORITE albums should be fived. |
ckunke002
05.26.11 | yeah corncheese i wanted to make a list. Thanks for the advice Satellite! I'll go change some of those 5's |
acorncheese
05.26.11 | do what sat said and go to your profile and then click the list tab then click create a list. |
