Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

Game Thread: Game 150 vs. the Astros

TIME: 8:05 @ Minute Maid Park

                                       

ASTROS PROBABLE:
                 REDS PROBABLE:
Matt Albers (0-1, 4.35)              Aaron Harang (13-11, 3.88)

There was a time I thought Harang had a shot at winning 18 games. He's been terrible in September, so maybe he's just tired. Barring something terrible, he should go over his career high in innings pitched tonight, and that's with a couple of starts left to go.

Go Reds!

Avast ye, matey!
That's "arrrr..."

Not "Arrggh."

"Arrrrr..." is what we pirates say.

"Arrrgghh" is what Redlubbers say when that no-account Narron puts that scurvy swab Franklin in the game.  Maybe also when ye sit on a belaying pin.

pirate joke
A pirate walks into a bar wearing a paper towel on his head. He sits down at the bar and orders some dirty rum.

The bartender asks, "Why are you wearing a paper towel?"

"Arrr..." says the pirate. "I've got a bounty on me head!"

pirate joke
A pirate captain walks into a bar with his first mate and they sit down at the bar. Now, the pirate captain has been a little down on his luck in the world of women, know what I mean? His first mate notices some lovely piratical wenches across the bar.

"Arr, cap'n, you should go o'er thar and talk to her, ask her to dance, aye?"

The captain replied "Arrrr, but what about me one eye? What if she makes fun of it?"

"Don't worry cap'n," said the first mate. "She only has one leg! She won't say anything with that one peg leg."

Convinced, the captain went over and immediately impressed the lady as pirates will do. He asked her if she'd like to dance.

"Would EYE, Would EYE!" she exclaimed.

"Oh yeah? Well... Peg Leg! Peg Leg!" replied the insulted captain!

arrrrr time for a pirate joke
A pirate and his parrot, were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic escape from a valiant battle. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, the pirate stumbled across an old lamp. Secretly hoping that a Genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of the castaways, a Genie came forth. This particular Genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three. Without giving any thought to the matter the pirate blurted out, "Make the entire ocean into rum!" The Genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash, and immediately the entire sea turned into the finest rum ever sampled by mortals. Simultaneously, the Genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of rum on the hull broke the stillness as the two considered their circumstances

The parrot looked disgustedly at the pirate and after a tension-filled moment spoke: "Now yee've done it!! Now we're goon to have to pee in the boat!"

"No, no, no. It's "step, pivot, step, pause." Are you TRYING to piss off the volcano god?" - Peter Griffin

by Ash on Sep 19, 2006 8:31 PM EDT up reply actions  

aye lead
Lead is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Pb (L. plumbum) and atomic number 82. A soft, heavy, toxic and malleable poor metal, lead is bluish white when freshly cut but tarnishes to dull gray when exposed to air. Lead is used in building construction, lead-acid batteries, bullets and shot, and is part of solder, pewter, and fusible alloys. Lead has the highest atomic number of all stable elements - although the next element, bismuth has a half life so long it can be considered stable.
