Oh Rickie

BCB's "very own marginally deserving all-star!"

by battlekow on Aug 14, 2008 12:11 AM CDT   0 recs

If anyone's staying up...

Brett Lawrie and Canada play at 5 AM CT.

Well, after that video

I might not have a choice…

He didn't play against China.

Can someone here call Mgr. Puhl and complain?

He did play, but just as a defensive sub

A WTMJ guy says Lawrie will be starting at catcher tonight, but I don’t know how accurate that is.

defensive subbing doesn't count.

If Lawrie doesn’t get at least three extra-base hits in a game, it doesn’t count as him playing.

If I watch that video

I’ll puke.

Oh dear ogg

That was the most painful thing to see. The whole floppy arm thing was crazy.

Notice he didn't have a spotter

You’re just asking for trouble when you don’t have a spotter.

yeesh

reminds me of that Bengals player who broke his leg in the super bowl against the 49ers years ago…

That actually scared me

Especially when I later went ice skating for the first time

I didn’t realize that it happened again recently. And a Swedish player actually died of a similar injury in 1995.

That was the game I was thinking about

Wisconsin native Tim Krumrie was the Bengal. My best friends dad went to high school with him.

I feel bad for the guy...

but can’t stop laughing at the attendants rushing out with little screens.

Ryan Braun: He loves it.

If anyone's counting ...

The top five teams in the NL Central have now won a combined 20 straight games.

Experts seem to pretty much just look at the current moment and project from there

Boston won in 07 so they’ll win in 08
The NL Central was weak in 07 so they’ll be weak in 08
Now that the Brewers are Wildcard leaders they’ll start predicting that the Brewers will win the Wild Card this year.
etc.

Braun had a “modest breakthrough” today.

Translation:

kirbir decided to give Brauny a break after seeing the sights with him in L.A. for a few days

Shouldn't you be going easy on him?

at least until the offseason?

It’s kind of selfish, you know.

I have to split all my time between him

and Jeff AND TheJay.

I don’t think that’s selfish at all.

JFC

This is EXACTLY what I needed to start my day with. There should be an “anti-rec” button.

Hence my decision to call it "screwing around" as opposed to "in-depth study."
