Open Thread: ALCS - Game 5

PrintChew on this for a minute: if there is to be any more baseball played this season in the state of California- beyond this evening- the hope of such a scenario rests on the right arm of John Lackey.
In other words, screw West Coast baseball!
Oh, I kid.
Surely you don't have to remind the New York Yankees that it actually takes four wins to win a seven-game series; the last time they were this close to their 40th (40!) trip to the World Series, Terry Francona and his group of whiskey drinking cowboys in red-colored footwear staged the greatest comeback since the First Easter.
Once again the Bombers are just one victory shy of punching a ticket to the Fall Classic, in this, Year 2 A.T. (After Torre), and they turn to A.J. (Burnett) to carry them home.
Regardless of what happens for the remainder of the ALCS, two things I know: the winner plays the Philadelphia Phillies, and the World Series starts next Wednesday. I mean, unless Mother Nature intervenes or something, but now I'm just being silly.

oooh, it's a Sleglead
should’ve done this in Game 1, Slingblade.
At lead there’ll be another game or 2, I was worried about a baseball-less weekend and the inevitable withdrawal pains, followed by the inevitable trip down to the corner of Market St. and 16th St. in West Oakland for some black market baseball, which is cut with cricket and never gets you off as good as the real thing.
Oooh Mathis doubled again, come on Scioscia start him every game next season OH YEAH!!!!

So have people given up having game threads on other peoples baseball games?
it’s pretty sad that there are 18 comments here in the fifth inning.
Hopefully the majority’s in 67M’s earlier post and are currently electing me the MVP of the 2009 A’s.

we've had a few good game threads during the playoffs
last night we learned about Texas and Wisconsin and that CC weighs 290 pounds and two nights ago there was a debate on whether or not I should get a flu shot so it’s been really exciting stuff.
what was the verdict on the flu shot?
I passed by the Walgreen’s tonight and wondered the same thing. Ultimately, I don’t trust them.

Nico said think about it
and then they started saying things that went over my head. Bottom line if the swine flu gets big at my school I’ll probably get the shot.
They always talk about the big things.
They always talk down to us Zoidbergs.

without getting into the whole thing, the conclusion was
the media doesn’t get science, so whether we’re all fucked or not, don’t rely on them to tell you about it.
I say, if you can afford the vaccination, get it.
But then, I wouldn’t take my advice on nearly anything.
so do it if I can afford it, but don't listen to you?

well, I would base your decisions on other sources of information apart from myself
this doesn’t apply when I’m talking about music, incidentally. I am always right on that.
My main concern is that I don't want to get any of my students sick
so I’ll do what ever I think is best.

AN has turned into a meta-thread blogsite, where we comment on previous threads.

I'd posit you'll find not too many peoples upon AN who come up with more original content.

i mean, it's too much for my mouse in a cog powered brain to process
speaking of which – did you hear the theory of the two Japanese Scientists about why the large hadron (i almost wrote hardon, there) collider isn’t working?
because the Higgs boson theoretically exists out of time, they say that the LHC might have created one in the future, and it’s become entangled with the present, thus causing it all to break.
Seems to me like they’ve been watching too much Back To The Future, but it does amuse me, nonetheless
is it nerdy to say i heard that too?

It's been a good day already
I was walking past the cafe near my house as it was closing, and they were bringing out the unused bagels and scones, so I now have free bread products. Woo!
Anyone who says that I was walking back and forth on purpose to try to time it right is a LIAR and doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
Ahem.
Yay bread products!
I'm not going to eat the whole bag tonight
obviously, but this should keep me going till I get paid next week.
Also, I made confit tomatoes this afternoon, which I nearly burned, but I think have come out ok.
Oven on a low (180-220F) temperature, tinfoil on a baking tray
cut tomatoes into chunks (depending on how big they are) scrape out the seeds and weird watery bit, put them on the baking tray, pour on some oil (a fair bit), salt, pepper, oven them for 2-3 hours.
Cool, jar, cover with oil, store.
cool!
how long do I wait til I throw the jar out?

This mother fucker is making $10, $12, $14 million, he ain’t going to be batting ninth [in 2010]. I’m going to make sure he earns his money.

Very Very Very Very important
that the Sleggos’ pitching coach (Mike Butcher?) take careful note of exactly what has worked against these Yankees… the softer breaking stuff really worked for Sling Blade, it’s working for Weaver here, and they should seriously consider throwing nothing but soft slop up there in NY in Game 6 should they hang on in this one.

Yeah, that too
I guess we see so much of him, I don’t really notice it so much now
of course, you do the right thing in bringing it to our attention, again
Weaver does look like a slack jawed goat bothering yokel
I wish Al Michaels still did baseball
Buck and McCarver are too much and too many games in a row.

As long as we're wishing, I wish Bill King were still alive
and that he was calling the A’s in the ALCS.

I thought they should have sent Willits there
Turns out he probably would have been out because Swisher made a very good throw, but I think with Rivera on the mound and a ball that deep to a guy with usually an average arm, you have to go.

Small request. If Fuentes gets A-Rod 0-2 on a pair of fastballs,
could he bounce a changeup? kthxbye.

so Fuentes
has to get the big boys out if the Sleggums wanna go back to NY, hmmm
When I watch Fuentes pitch, I revel in exactly how awesome it is to have a closer who is a)cheaper and b)way better.

I can’t wait for game 6 and I never thought I’d be saying that about a Yankees vs Angels series
What a pity, but yay for more baseball!

Swisher is killing this team
0-8 with 18 LOB with RISP
Giaradi is an idiot for Burnett and allowing Swisher to hit for himself.

On this perfect day,
in my way, nothings standing.

what the hell is wrong with Swish
at this pace he’s gonna get benched!
Oh, but if I catch a line drive by a girl, that’s girl-on-girl action, the twiceness is eliminated, and it just counts once - gigglingone
He should be benched
he is a liability at the moment
This is the PS and the pressure is on and he is as unclutch as you can get.
I kinda like Torii Hunter, actually
he always seems so glib
