Wuertz was scratched from a minor league game on Wednesday, but bounced back quickly on Thursday, throwing mostly fastballs and sliders, although he did mix in three sliders. -Rotoworld

Britton too, huh? How many stud pitching prospects do the Orioles have?!

Lots of pitching + no hitting = tasty.

Forgot about Markakis.

Jones is still in Baltimore? I thought he was a Cub now.

Is this going to be one of those things where it sounds great, but it's just going to end up

with OAH pouting on the sidelines and you and Sirbed wrestle in the jello?

OK so Vanilla Ice

Is coming to Tampa to help BJ Upton feel better about his slump and reduced playing time.

When to the A’s bring in Kid-n-Play to help Matt Carson and keep him from hitting the wall?

aww, I loved KidnPlay back in the day.

...being a role model I probably wouldn't recommend eating dirt. But at the same time, I'm not trying to be a role model. I'm just trying to eat some dirt.

BUT AT LEAST THE RIBS WERE GOOD RIGHT?

by mikev on Jul 11, 2010 5:08 PM PDT up reply actions  

the ribs

might have been the most exceptionally seasoned pork ribs I have ever consumed.

Granted I eat pork extremely rarely, but once upon a time I got to be 260 lbs. scarfing down Brother-In-Laws’ BBQ in SF in the 1990s so pork ribs are not entirely unfamiliar to me.

You and Lynnz and the Gary Fisherman guy just blew up the food yesterday, it made me almost backpedal on my fish-and-vegetables rule on a more permanent basis.

thanks :)

I try to keep to lean meat myself, but on the occasion I do ribs I like doing them that way.

I wish I liked cooked fish lol.

Try stepping up to a higher quality fish and lightly searing it, leaving raw goodness in the middle

I've had Steelhead like 2 hours after I caught it up in Oregon

It’s the strangest thing. I just can’t do fish unless it’s sushi or something in a shell.

I repeat my earlier assertion

that the A’s need to just draft namesakes of killer musicians from now on… GG was a fine start but we need a Sharrock, a Fripp and a Philip Catherine to fill out our all-guitar infield for 2013.
