  1. Go to the baseball area, its under "sportstalk\MLB" on this site and look up my thread on the fastball. I thought it was really interesting. BTW, Hershiser is the Dodger color guy and he frequently says he only threw in the low 90's.
  2. They sort of do, it's called NY Lotto. Odds are 1 in 7mil., although you are probably talking better odds than that.
  3. Well that's "cool."
  4. Change it all to gold and bury it at Oak Island. I hear it is really safe there.?
  5. I didn't think I would get into this after the first one but now I am 5 episodes in in two days. I am very anxious to see how it ends.
  6. When Mattingly coached the Dodgers, I used to say he would go through his bullpen trying to find that guy who was having an off day. He seemed to be successful at that. I realize that all the stats managers do that now but that is the risk. When you use 6 pitchers in a game, you are lucky if you can get through that without one of them being off. And in the playoffs, just not being able to throw strikes to the first guy you face qualifies as off. If Counsell's early use of Hader would have gotten them a win, he would be considered a genius but it didn't work out. Such is the defining line for genius's.
  7. Two weeks ago I went to Lake Placid. It was peak. I have never seen peak up there before and it was quite a site. This was one week after their Leaf festival or whatever they call it. Just north of Syracuse, the trees are still changing. Maples in my yard haven't hit full color yet but they should this week. Not that many leaves down. Usually for Halloween I have large piles in the street. The oaks on the other had think they are going to hang on to the leaves until Dec. They are still green.
  8. After surgery I had to watch my salt intake and Steamers qualified. I was partial to the Pineapple Chicken ones.
  9. When I was a kid in grade school I knew a couple of kids who ate bugers. But since then not so much.?
  10. Have to consider the odds of that. I thought they always blur the faces?
  11. I'm behind the times but this is the first time I have heard this. The start sounds like "Black or White" I was on a plane today and I chose to listen to the Red Album on my mp3 player. Bose noise canceling headphones. I always enjoy listening to them, trying to guess who is singing what. They did have a great vocal sound and they are probably under-rated in that regard. It is also a great album to hear how they progressed.
  12. I have never heard that before, or at least I can't recall hearing that before. That also happens when you get past 60. There are a lot of sayings I am not aware of. You tend to not pay attention to them as time goes on. At least that is so in my case. That defines it, Thanks.
  13. What's the over 60 translation of this?
  14. Since I would like to see your court, even if I lose I win. So you're on. I win if it doesn't happen before Trump leaves office.
  15. I think the phrase "counting chickens before they are hatched" is appropriate here.
  16. So didn't they offer tickets or ticket discounts on milk cartons? Maybe it wasn't milk cartons but something else. I remember you could go to a game really cheap.
  17. How come I don't see a gun rack?
  18. They wouldn't have had to do that if they had a house keeper.
  19. Are you sure about this? Seems I remember the Braves being on milk cartons.
  20. Here is an up vote for your parents. Had to be a tough/mixed day for them. I just have to ask. How far does it bend now?
  21. What's a mercado_b?
  22. But it is the only one in stock! ?
  23. Maybe you all should consider the remastered Red album. https://www.amazon.com/1962-1966-digitally-remastered-BEATLES-Korean/dp/B00CH80G8O/ref=sr_1_4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1538441706&sr=1-4&keywords=beatles+remastered&dpID=51DdCFDkyRL&preST=_SX218_BO1,204,203,200_QL40_&dpSrc=srch
  24. Came across this and thought it was very interesting. Baseball fans should enjoy it.
