Thursday Night OT: You Can Always Tell a Milford Man
I don't feel like reliving today's spectacular debacle, but I know some of you might be interested in talking about what is going on around the league tonight. The Cubs have already beat the White Sox and the Pirates lost to the Twins. Houston plays Texas this evening and the Tigers go into St. Louis to play the Cardinals. Or you can talk about whatever is on you mind, even if it is just to vent about the Reds.
By the way, I've done a little research into this Paul Janish character. Turns out he is a graduate of the Milford Academy. That explains a lot about why we never see him.

I just want to start this thread by saying
it made me smile to see Votto’s name in Sarasota’s lineup tonight.
Isn't there a slanket somewhere you should be filling with your farts?
he's 0-for-1 with a walk and a K against Cisco
probably can’t get The Thong Song out of his head.

An update
S-Reds have just finished the 5th inning. Jo-eh is 0-for-1 with a walk so far, and he’s due up in the bottom of the 6th.

Unlike a certain Braves player we all know and love.

it is
Especially since he used to have a reputation for being unfriendly to fans.

he also gave up #19, apparently
for, uh, nobody on the Sarasota Roster. And what’s with the pinstripes on the banner, anyways?

HE NEVER SIGNED MY BALL IN RICHMOND WHEN EVERY OTHER PLAYER SIGNED IT BECAUSE HE WAS "ONLY SIGNING FOR KIDS" THOUGH NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME FOR INK!
wow, that all fit in the subject line.
might i add i drove five hours without air conditioner in 100+ degree heat when traffic was a standstill and it should have only taken two hours by distance and i had to rent a hotel room just to take a shower!
ha ha. i dont’ really care. circumstances were just kind of funny.
First in war, first in peace
and last in the NL East. But they’re still beating the Yankees. Corey Patterson and all. (And yes, I think he is averaging 2 pitches per at-bat.)
And somebody tell that Janish kid to quit hiding from Dusty.
He was visible in this photo from this year’s Rice baseball media guide:

That’s him in the second row on the left, on the end.
He didn’t rate a photo in the alumni section, though there was a photo of him in his Reds uniform in the “pipeline to the pros” section.

til i got to the bottom of this comment, i thought this was a madville post
What do you mean, "blank slate"?
Ugliest pro athlete I've ever seen in person
Looked like Freddy Krueger.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
it's sad
Lannan, I was willing to concede. He’s pitching well, as the Reds discovered.
But for the rest…the Yankees are just sucking right now. There’s no way around it.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
even worse
The Yanks could have lost the first game, too. It was only terrible defense by Elijah Dukes in CF that let them win that one. He was so bad he lost his job to Corey Patterson.
And perhaps worst of all…Brett Gardner nearly killed himself. He ran down a ball (hit by Kearns) that seemed uncatchable, and threw himself against the fence and made the catch. But the fence there was the plexiglas window to the pen, and his head smacked really hard into it. He held onto the ball, but was taken off the field on the cart.
Gardner has the role Bubba used to have, and is a similar player. Speedy little lefty. He was starting to play really well…and now this.
And there’s no one in AAA they can call up. A couple of corner OFers, but only stud prospect Austin Jackson for CF. I don’t think they’ll want to rush him.
I suppose there’s always Damon…but I think his CF days are done.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Makes me think of all the snickering Yanks fans
who were disparaging of the notion of Mike Cameron coming over in a trade.
But Yanks versus Nats, isn’t that a bit like Globetrotters versus Generals? Hey NY team and DC team.
A thirty bajillion quintillionty dollar payroll and they lose two to the Nats?
That’s impressive.

No, seriously. Just disgusting, especially when he takes his hat off. Ugly stick, etc.
He sits alone...Reds are not home.
Hey, I went to Milford!
Exempted Village School district, that is.

I was just looking up who played Jessie, the publicist in that episode
It was Kid Rock’s sister. Weird.

And now Fernando Rodney is in fail mode.
Walked the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th. 2 wild pitches. Leyland is leaving him in!?

Heh. Rick Ankiel GIDP
Guess the Tigers just wanted to create some drama.
"Sir, can you please put your pants back on?"
Yay, Votto
Glad to see JV out on the field. Thanks for the pic Charlie Scrabbles. He’s looking good. With all that talk about weight loss in the paper I didn’t know what to expect (to be honest, I was expecting Corey Feldman in the Goonies—ok not really but for some reason JV reminds me of CF—a much more attractive CF). Ok that parenthetical was too long.
Glad to hear the Cards are in FAIL mode lol.

Aw man, perfect caption for that photo too

Kids are in bed, laundry is started
What now for fun? Anyone playing on TV?
Oh, and I got to experience “ultra-aggressive dad” at the boy’s knothole game tonight, good times. I wanted so badly to kick him in the balls hard enough that his grandkids would limp. It’s eight year olds dude, settle down.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
You people and your "lives" greatly dissapoint me
Off to 4chan I go I guess.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
Over the years of coaching I had a couple three or so of these
Yep the angry parent…what a drag these people are…but you I would tell all parents at the beginning of the season if you don’t like how I coach…don’t bitch or whine, come to all of my practices and see what we are trying to accomplish..if you can help all the better…otherwise keep your mouth shut. You can only yell supportive things to ALL the players not just yours and lay off the refs…now if you can’t do this then you child will not be allowed to play. Period.
You got a problem we’ll work it out…and we did..I’d always sit them down and ask them a bunch of questions about the rules (esp. soccer) and usually they only had half baked ideas of what the game was ultimately about. This would shift the enmphasisi to talking about learning the game and skill enhancement as a way to improve and to win, And we won a fuck of a lot games.
Most parents responded quite well to my approach and helped keep those parents who would occasionally lose it, in line.
I mean the game is all about the kids, having fun, learning and using all kinds of skills and also learning how to really work hard individually and as a group… the girl that made the assist pass usually got more praise than the one who drilled it in…
You know its kind of that way here at RR….just hitting the ball of the tee

I think I would know Nora's fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women.

Oh, this guy was a grade A douche
He’s in the same “gym outfit” every week, baggy tracksuit pants and a way-too-tight sports themed top (did I mention it was hot as hell?). Yelling like an idiot to/at anyone who will listen. Most everyone there was embarrassed for him even though he obviously felt no shame.
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
A lot of that sounds like you at the Reds game Tuesday night. :)
"Sir, can you please put your pants back on?"
I knew that was coming
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I saw a dude escorted out of a park while covering a Legion game last year.
His daughter was in T-ball. It. Was. Sweet.
Eighty-five percent of the f*ckin' world is working. The other fifteen percent come out here. A f*ckin' playground for the cocks*ckers.

I'm back from Boston!
I was gonna go to the Bunker Hill Memorial, but it didn’t really seem worth the time. Ours is bigger!
That's phallist!
"It seems as if every mistake I've ever made in life I've had an erection in one hand and a Bud Light in the other."
I'm off to bed kids, my mangina is aching
I may or may not be here for the game thread tomorrow. If not burn someone’s yard in my honor please.

You want venting?
Our boy Willie, leadoff hitter extrodinare, has now gone 48 PA and reached base once.
Free Drew Stubbs!
Often wrong, never uncertain.
