The Old Bailey
The Central Criminal Court in England, commonly known as the Old Bailey, is a court building in central London, one of a number housing the Crown Court.
So I guess the Homer Bailey is where they judge the distance for long balls or something.
Where have you gone, Johnny Vander Meer?
Alan, did you get in a fight with that pussy from Cleveland?
is that how you lost your privliges. Or did you kill JD in hopes of running this site?

Reminds me of when I did a study abroad in England
We were having classes in a middle school, and when we’d go out for lunch, all the kids would be on the playground smoking.
Of course, I was about that age when I had my first fag in my mouth, amirightGayJesus?

Actually, the kid was younger, I think. Middle schooler.
I was kinda nervous. Especially when he decided to sit in the sear right behind me on the bus.

And for that matter the Cubs for Blanton?
Any other deals while I was gone?

Brewers gave up Laporta

DOVER, N.H. – Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama says Al Gore would play a key role in his administration if he wants one, but he won’t say whether he’d ask him to be his running mate.After listening to Obama address a crowded community center Wednesday, a voter asked him to consider naming Gore as his running mate before the nomination is decided “as a way to take the wind out of Hillary’s sails.”
The voter even proposed a campaign slogan: “Obama and Gore: Experience and Youth. Obama and Gore: Wisdom and Truth.”

If Bailey has that arrow tatoo on his forearm
why doesn’t MLB make him wear long sleeves?
www.crosleyfieldterrace.wordpress.com
i am actually against Dusty removing a starter
i would let Bailey finish the inning. He is going well, it would be character building.

It's against Prince Fielder

by Brendanukkah on Jul 13, 2008 3:53 PM EDT up reply actions
In this case, its the right move
One mistake to the lefty and you ruin this great start. If Bray gets the out here, then Homer ends with a great line and some confidence.
The season doesn't start until the Cincinnati Reds take the field! Reclaim The Opener!!
Of course, bray has to throw strikes for that to happen
The season doesn't start until the Cincinnati Reds take the field! Reclaim The Opener!!
character building was more of joke
i felt like with 2 outs, and a runner on first, give Bailey one more hitter. I am not going to say that I am right because of what Bray did. Bailey may have given up a homerun, I just felt like he could have gotten Fielder out. There are no stats to back that up.

We need guys with that attitude. I’m waiting for the day that Homer blows up in the media and calls Dusty a dumbass. That wouldn’t surprise me at all.
Pretty amazing stuff
Dusty protecting Bailey when usually that isn’t his style. Literally, can’t fault Dusty for that, but Bray has to pitch better. Poor job by “Bill”.
Bailey needs a trank. He kept the team in the game. We don’t need selfish players, especially from you after a mechanical breakdown this year.

It is.
Seems like par for the course over there, though. I thought it was pretty funny, personally, and I don’t think it’s offensive. It’s obviously a reference to the band and not a racial thing at all. Here’s that rec I owe you.

I'll admit that I was a little uneasy with the name when I first saw it
Obviously I knew what you were getting at and ultimately liked it, but I can see why they flipped out. It doesn’t help that they’re prone to flipping out over the trivialest shit anyway, but whatever. I felt comfortable with my spelling (inserting the extra “b”) because I felt it made it explicitly clear that I was referencing the band. Or the unholy rite.
Now to go check out exactlyl what they had to say about your post. Maybe we can reach a compromise where we all just call him “The Bridge to CC Sabathia” or something.

Yeah, that seems completely out of nowhere.
Except for one incident (which virtually no one over here agreed with), we’ve pretty much left them alone. We’ve seen them come over here talking shit more than we go over there.

you made the mistake in assuming they were baseball fans
Not sure why they’d be bitter over hearing about Sabathia – in a fanshot, no less. They got a good deal for him. It’s not like the Phillips deal where he was basically stolen from them. I’m getting the impression they just don’t like other fans.
Apathy - I could take it or leave it.
I get that impression too.
One guy there is giving ‘than crap asking if winning 7 out of our last 10 puts us ahead of the Pirates. Shouldn’t somebody tell him that his team is a game back from the Royals?

Sabbathia is warmed up now
Dusty will probably be beaten to death about his “choice” in swaping Bailey for Bray, but it was the right choice. You coddle the young pitcher against the big slugger. Bray is to blame. Pitch like a man.
Really depressing loss if they do lose.
I won't argue with his move to bring in Bray
But he should have brought in Lincoln to face the righty when Bray walked Fielder. I actually agree with Thom here. Not to absolve Bray at all, but I don’t think Dusty’s out of the woods.

Bailey didn't look overly good today
He looked better his last two AAA starts. Fastball was mph higher on average and his curve was nasty.
Lucky for us when he pounds the zone and is crisp, he can pull off a ok start.
But he can pitch better IMO.

The season doesn't start until the Cincinnati Reds take the field! Reclaim The Opener!!
Dusty is proof that God hates us (Reds fans)
Madonna is proof that God hates us (humanity).

IF C.C. Sabathia beats us with the bat right here.....
... I don’t know what I’ll do, but it will involve swearing.

I agree
Sabathia should hit for himself here.

wow
i thought there was no way a pitcher who has pitched 3 games in a row and 4 outta the last 5 would be called upon for a second inning of work.
I really need to stop thinking and just submit.

Now that the bases are loaded and no outs..now he brings on CoCo
Here’s an example of the manager losing a game. Start with Bray then go to Stormy’s second inning of work, don’t forget starting ‘The automatic out’.
"When I got my award, I just wore my usual stuff," Dunn said.
"Was it for the Reds organization or all of baseball?" Bruce said.
So Dusty... Load the bases with no outs
Seriously you have your pitcher intentionally load the bases with no outs hoping for what? A triple play? If we some how survive this, it just proves the world is wacked.
Beware the toothpick knows.
Fuck Dusty, fuck Weathers, fuck Bill Hall, Homer you're cool, fuck Patterson, I'm out!

that kinda sounds like my famous cuban drunken rant
i got really drunk before dinner and just started shouting
“FUCK YOU ZANE, FUCK YOU DYLAN, I FUCKING HATE YOU SHANNON, BUT EVAN YOUR SUCH A NICE GUY AND I’M SORRY ABOUT THIS, BUT I FUCKING HATE YOU JARRED, BUT EVEN YOUR SUCH A NICE GUY, LETS GO TO THE MELECON AND BUY SOME WHORES!!!
Then i passed out and proceded to vommit on all the people i just declared my hatred for as they carried me up to my 4th floor hotel room.

Dusty was saving Cordero
just in case Weathers got tired and loaded the bases in the bottom of the ninth in a tie game.
What an absolute debacle.
FIRE DUSTY BAKER
Fuck dusty Fucking Baker
How many games has his incompetence cost us this year!. VP rules in the losers bracket

Come on
Fuckin, I should have known this would be the end result at 2:05 today.

Well I'm depressed
The game coupled with the death of the English language over at Craigslist, I’m in a funk. Off to Wal-Mart to make me feel better. I hope they have those gummi bears I like.
sig lines are for suckas
Ugh
That sucked big, green warty pickles.
Bill Hall is unreal.
And what kind of throwing error was it?

Ryan Freel
Is there any news on him? If we’re gonna lose Hairston for a while it’d be nice to get an update on him..
I think Freel's out for the season
Or at least a very long time. He was recovering and then had a setback or something.
Apathy - I could take it or leave it.
Yikes
FREEL SETBACK: When Ryan Freel originally injured his right hamstring June 3, it was called a partial tear and he was told he’d miss three weeks or so.He’s been out nearly a month and he hasn’t started running yet.
The explanation?
“I felt another pop (last week),” Freel said. “It was a setback. It swelled up and got sore.”
Another MRI showed a complete tear.
Freel is just starting very light agility drills.He said surgery has not been discussed. He expects to return this season.
“Absolutely,” he said. “If I keep feeling good, I can move pretty quickly.”
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
i know hariston is a positive on this team
but if this injury keeps the Reds from doing something silly like giving him a muli year multi million dollar deal, it might be for the best. I also feel like it will help the log-jam created by having both Hairston and Kepp around, so it won’t seem like everyday, one out of Bruce, EdE, or Dunn is sitting.
