ST Game 17 Open Thread - Snakes vs Royals

by 2X2L on Mar 14, 2009 11:18 AM EDT Comment 138 comments

CANCELED

One's the cerebral straight man, the other keeps it close to the ground. A favorite of RR readers, the Banny and Hooch series didn't play in Peoria and has been canceled after just 3 airings, before we get to find out which one turns into a major star and which one is really a dog.

But the show goes on. Banny spins off on his own today to face the Arizona Diamondbacks in Surprise. His supporting cast includes Brandon Duckworth, Juan Cruz, and Yaz Yabuta. Comedy gold? Tune in and find out. Jon Garland is the special guest starter.

RR should let you do the Game Threads all season long.

I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.

Thanks

but I’m just a spring phenom. By April the league will have figured me out, and I won’t be able to adjust.

Anyway I only jumped in here because spring training is a little loosey-goosey, like A-Rod’s Texas years. Whatever Will wants to do is fine with me.

Thanks. My wife, who teaches math, says she usually does something for π Day when it falls on a school day. Saturday, not so much.

I hope we don’t have to cover that kind of human interest story at RR, however. I have a hard enough time keeping up with the Bloomquist/Callaspo contest and the open roster questions.

Bloomy hasn’t gone stone cold at the plate yet, by the way, keeping hope alive that the brass will reach the wrong decision.

I was briefly a math major

but i was seriously horrible at math

i was in calc and linear algebra, and i hit the wall

now granted, this is the VERY BEGINNING of the major, but i was toast

so i stuck with english, instead of english & math

by royalsreview on Mar 14, 2009 2:14 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

It was long ago and has made very little difference since, but I did something similar myself, staying with the math somewhat longer. I used to teach math, before I met Mrs. 2X2L, but even that was long ago now.

I can’t remember much of it, regardless. I don’t use it at all.

I remember up to pre-calculus really well, because I had to learn it well enough in my 20’s to teach it. So now when Mrs. 2X2L hits a difficult problem I get to help, which is nice.

Good movie

caught it on a movie channel with some deleted scenes, including one that was gold…turns out Tom Hanks (in the movie) was gay…and his partner was played by Howie Long… didn’t see that one coming.

The two of them just sitting in that little sportster — nothing overt going on, just having a conversation — was pretty funny.

But the deleted scene I like the best in that film is the early one with Charlize Theron. Do not have to say why.

How do I simply cut and paste a photo from my computer to this or a fanshot rather than with a URL?

I think you can upload a photo only when you’re creating a new FanPost. But I don’t really know, as I’ve never done it.

Why are they stretching Banni out to the 5th inning

I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.

The Mrs. says

it’s just about time for us to make our occasional trip to the big city of Santa Rosa to lay in supplies. Why she likes being recumbent in all those supplies is difficult to say, but it keeps her happy, so I go.

So I’ll catch up with you all later. For those who are inclined, enjoy the Yabuta, middle or late.
