For about 3 months back then, everything was "clear"
There was a Crystal Pepsi…
and there were clear deodorants, and probably a bunch of products I’ve forgotten. Then everyone realized how stupid the whole thing was, and they all disappeared.

That's true
but I don’t think they’re advertised now as if being “clear” is a reason to buy them are they?
Maybe they market them that way to Scientologists.
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
no, you have it exactly wrong
(and I’ve never thought that about you before). Clear deodorants have a benefit: they don’t leave marks on clothes. Clear everything else was just a gimmick.
Maybe that's what Crystal Pepsi was for, too!
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s

Hi folks
Nice to log on and see 5-0.
BTW, that is definitely a ground-rule double. If the ball gets stuck under the padding, or in the OF ivy, or rolls into a bucket in the bullpen, it’s a dead ball. I’m not sure why Glen and Ray are confused about this.
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
Geren seemed confused, too.
However, every park has ground rules. And maybe the ball getting stuck there isn’t actually in the ground rules of Comiskey, so Geren thought Barton should’ve gotten third. Who knows.

by StJosephBurningTheOakTreesToTheGround on Jul 31, 2010 6:19 PM PDT up reply actions
Digital Starter is the cheapest way. No cheaper package includes CSN, CSNBA or ESPN.
With it you get 2 free DTAs and one free STB, but HD is extra. And the DTAs can’t handle HD, premium channels, on demand, or a guide.
Ask for a promotion, the one I got was only about $12 more than limited basic and lasts for one year- also 3 months of HBO.
...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.

CSNBA is Comcast SportsNet Bay Area and CSN is Comcast SportsNet. There’s also a Comcast SportsNet California and there are some other CSN networks that televise games like Philadelphia.

CSNBA carries the giants, not sure what else. CSNCA has the A's and Sharks, probably Warriors in your area.
Football is on local channels and ESPN, maybe the NFL network too.
...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.
Sorry, left the CA of CSN. DTAs (digital transport adapter?) are tiny little crappy boxes that will unscramble most channels. A
stb (set top box) is fully functional, has more hookups and types of hookups. It needs to be HD capable to get HD channels but I believe comcast is also switching to charging for HD service seperately. In which case a standard or HD STB should cost the same in rental fees, but you won’t get a free HD stb unless it’s with a temporary promotion (I believe)

That complicates things. Maybe let him start, and pull him if he gets in the least bit of trouble?

Hmm, good point.
I’d go with Wolf then. I just don’t want the already-been-hurt pitchers going much over 100, and a 4-run lead seems safe enough to not use Breslow or Wuertz.
I’d go with Wolf because Rodriguez just scares me and watching him pitch makes me feel all icky inside.
