Game 132 Overflow Thread

I bet you didn't know that I, too, can blockquote from books! This one is from Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut, part of a conversation between the main character, Kilgore Trout, and the truck driver he is hitchhiking with:

"I can't tell if you're serious or not," said the driver.

"I won't know myself until I find out whether life is serious or not," said Trout. "It's dangerous, I know, and it can hurt a lot. That doesn't necessarily mean it's serious, too."

I love Vonnegut's work, though I always take it as a bad sign when I find myself identifying with one of his characters. Such as Trout in this particular instance.

Good game tonight. Party on.

How long till Chloe screws over Jimmy for a foursome with Lois, Lana, and Clarke (who will be thinking about Lex the whole time)?

Never watched it much, just a bit lately. It always seemed EMO to me. The early Buffy (well, the first two seasons, anyway) was reflexive enough to avoid that. Then Big Ideas took over.

by laxtonto on Aug 26, 2008 10:55 PM EDT reply actions  

Just depends

on 1) whether he’s open to extending in the offseason or next year and

2) what could be had in return. Most of us would trade anyoone for the right price. But that price would be pretty high for a young borderline ace with no injury issues like ProZack.

I’m not a moderator. Just a grad student who has more than mastered the art of wasting time. RoyalsReview is the founder (on his honeymoon). The inimitable NHZ and fabulous NYRoyal are the other mods.

I use Firefox, does it bookmark differentlly than IE?

You should come back… We have a few of “others” on here. We can talk C+ prospecst for weeks at a time. Well, other people can, I just make dumbass jokes until people roll their eyes and “lol” to shut me up.

they showed a tiny bit of video and said that he got into it

with a fan who was “giving him the business” (Denny Matthews). Olivo went out to be peacemaker. I think they said that they essentially escorted him to right field

that's too bad I was hoping he would just suck it up and play the year out

and hopefully try to get it going next year. Doesn’t look good

It sucks, the whole thing just sucks

I obviously don’t know the situation. Fans can do what they want, I guess. A little courtesy would be nice, and smart, and adult. But who knows? In any case, any player has to be smart enough to just ignore or pretend to ignore that stuff. If you don’t, the press is going to rip you, even if you’re hitting like crazy…

I wish he was hitting well. But he isn’t. Sounds like there were other teams interested. Like I’ve said, if another team could take on the whole salary, that’s another FA possibly in the market. Yeah, it would probably leave a whole, but that can be filled, certainly by 2010 if need be. Imagine getting BOTH Dunn and Furcal…
