PrintBraden so far: not as good as Duke, not as bad as Eveland. A's offense so far: just as bad as ever. 1-0 Red Sox going to the top of the fourth.

After innings like that, I'm never sure
if it’s appropriate to send a “thank you” card.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
It could be appreciated, or it could be taken as an insult.

I hate the Yankess more
anyone, but the more I think about it, the more I think I should hate the the Red Sox more than any other team. This weekend has given me pause, though. The YES guys are really good announcers, and call probably the least biased game in the league—they know their poop back to front, about their team, about the other team. Their fans, while somewhat arrogant, are gracious in defeat and are good-natured when they’re attempting to take over your ballpark. They’re actually kind when they realize your team sucks.
Conversely the Red Sox fans are obnoxious as all get-out. The announcers are painfully biased and know nothing about the other team. In fact, Remy’s accent is so thick, he sometimes is difficult to understand. The fans are completely obnoxious, completely overbearing, always in your face, and their horrible losers.

I like both the teams. I agree on the fans.

do you think thomas clears waivers and is traded?
or get a pick, sign him for 09

Either Meyer pitches today or starts Thursday,

Jason Bay does it again.
And the guy the Red Sox traded, Moss, just homered for the Pirates. Trade looking good so far.
And Manny hit a bomb last night...
I think this was a good trade for all…

It will be interesting to see what happens when the Red Sox play the Yanks and Rays.
by Coach Cleats on Aug 3, 2008 11:55 AM PDT up reply actions
i think it was a mostly poor trade for everyone.
the Dodgers gave up too much value for a rental, the Pirates didn’t get enough for Bay (shoulda traded with Tampa Bay), and the Red Sox gave up quite a bit to get rid of the Manny headache.
The 2009 A's draft pick... getting higher every game.
I thought the Pirates made out pretty well for Bay
Moss, LaRoche, and Hansen isn’t a bad haul.
They’ll all start for PIT and 2 if not all 3 are def. Major League – ready.
At least its a relatively much better return than that awful Marte + Nady deal netted them.
Heck, we should’ve packaged Javier Herrera + Jared Lansford + Chris Denorfia and it would’ve been better deal for the ‘Bucs.
The Stockton Ports pitching staff is better than the Orioles.
yeah
the Bucs didn’t make out well in dealing with the Yanks.
I like Reid Brignac and Jeff Niemann better than Moss/LaRoche/Hansen though.
The 2009 A's draft pick... getting higher every game.
Fair Enough
Brignac should be a stud, I think Moss was someone that the prospect junkies were pretty high on the last couple of years but has seemed to fall off a bit.
Who wouldn’t want to raid that stocked T-Rays farm system, but I do think Pitt made out the best of the 3 teams, even though I really like Bay this was probably the best the mkt would allow.

true. when you get good prospects, it's hard to lose.

Pennington is a utility player at best
while Lowrie is exactly what the A’s so desperately need.

The A's still might win this...
...and the Tooth Fairy may be real.
How did a team which the last weekend before the break appeared to be in contention, have the bottom fall completely out? There have been historic collapses of Biblical proportions in baseball, but this year’s team has performed about as big a belly flop as I can remember from any A’s team.
Turns out,
Blanton was the key to us winning. Even when he wasn’t pitching. Especially when he wasn’t pitching.

Psychological?
Street’s meltdown the Sunday before the All-Star break convinced me this team wasn’t going anywhere. Harden’s trade probably convinced the A’s players they weren’t going anywhere. Not criticizing the trade, but when the thought finally sinks in that you’re season is gone, it must work on your head. The thing is, pretty much every other team not going anywhere is able to score more than two runs a game occasionally.
Nice clinic on situational hitting we're getting

Big Konk has been much worse than Swish, sub 200BA and I’m guessing sub 600 OPS for a guy that should be in the 800’s.
The Stockton Ports pitching staff is better than the Orioles.
is his salary high enough for him to clear waivers?
The 2009 A's draft pick... getting higher every game.
hmm... $12M annually thru 2010 with below bench performance...
I’d think he would clear waivers and be trade-able for Kenny Williams.

To be fair...
...maybe he’d be better if he did play more often.
You can't sit on a lead and run a few plays into the line and just kill the clock. You've got to throw the ball over the goddamn plate and give the other man his chance. That's why baseball is the greatest game of them all. ~Earl Weaver

I need some feedback here.
I’m in the middle of growing my hair long. It’s at that annoying stage where it’s long, noticeably long, but not quite long enough to put in a pony tail and not look like some douche.
So, I’m thinking of going to the Target, getting a set of clippers and buzzing it all off. I need an AN consensus, here.

let it grow
everyone has to go through the in-between phase
HELMET: Sandurz, what's going on?
SANDURZ: It's Mega Maid. She's gone from suck to
blow!
stay true to the plain
you will get through this and get to your hair goal. As another long hair supporter it will be worth it. Just dont rock the short pony tail
What makes you think a pony-tail isn't douche-looking?
Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Well, it's less
douchey-looking than someone who doesn’t really have enough hair for a ponytail wearing a ponytail. That’s seriously douche-like behavior.

LOL! I'll buy that.
Like someone else said… to have anything worthwhile ya gotta suffer through the “in-between” phase to get there.

Is it annoying you because of how it looks, or how it feels?
Headband can be really great for getting it off your face and neck while going through that annoying in-between phase. It might look too girly for you to wear it in public, though.
Another good option is a bandanna. Any rectangle of material will do. If you have straight hair you’ll want to make sure it’s a material that isn’t too slippery. Tie it behind like it’s a blindfold, then push up past your face and onto your hair. Looks sort of like a do-rag.

Californians and their unfamiliarity with thunderstorms
are always amusing to me as a Midwesterner. We had a rare Bay Area one a few years ago when I was working late at the radio station, and someone called the newsroom line to ask what precautions they should take to avoid having their house hit by lightning.
Don't they have thunderstorms in California? Winter in San Francisco was pretty rainy as I recall.
