  1. It was the 70’s, of which I dare no5 speak.

  2. Great picture, 999!

    I understand they traded yachts, too.

  3. So Berti is hurt—don't worry, Jeeves seems to be all right—and the Yanks...brought up Kevin Smith (no, not the Silent Bob one).

    Hey, bummer we don't have a terrific, all-around utility guy hitting. 386 in Triple-A. Oh, wait...

  4. So Berti is Hurty…

    Say Hoss, that pic is from JM. Unless you meant the mental image of the 70’s I referenced.

  5. the early 1970s - when wife swapping was more in vogue

  6. Oops, sorry, just a brain glitch. Great pic, JM!!

  7. And hey, Berti being out will now force Ma Boone to do the thing he most loathes doing: play the guy with the hot hand.

    Oh, the humanity!

  8. Hoss,

    Said prospect is not on the 40 man (according to something I read on the interwebs, so it must be true). Plus, I believe the intern is sure he needs a little more seasoning, maybe ready in 2029.

    They swingers swapped houses and dogs also. I'm guessing the road manager just changed the address cards after a road trip.

    Off topic, but I'm normally off my rocker...

    I count three (3) scheduled weekday day games this year if we want to do another outing.

    Thursday Jun 20 vs. the toilet bowls (Mastercard Half-Price Games)
    Forget the Master's Birthday. I'll celebrate at home.
    Monday Jul 20 vs. the DEVILs (Mastercard Half-Price Games)
    Thursday Aug 22 vs. the Cleveland Naps

    I'd be interested in either spending the game at the watering hole, or buying the cheapest possible seats (can we all pretend we're the local boys and girls club?).

  10. AA,

    My brother waited until the 90s.

  11. Dogs are very loyal. They could not have been pleased.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Another missed opportunity.

    Great at-bat by Torres. Up 2-0, no one out yet, their pitcher just walked in a run. Gleyber can't manage a flyball. He can't even manage a run-scoring DP.

    I will not miss that guy when he walks.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hoss,

    Given the travel schedules, I'd guess the dogs were more loyal to the baby mamas.

    ...and I won't miss Joggy 2.0 either.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I guess Bonehead won't have to agonize over taking PoPo out while pitching a no-hitter.

    ReplyDelete
  15. By the way, the "Name That Yankee" is Oscar Gamble

    ReplyDelete
  16. Joggy 2.0...with about one-tenth the talent. Granted, the juice probably helped Joggy 1.0. But at his best, he put up MVP seasons.

    Gleyber never did fulfill anything like his potential. Another poor start this year, Game 15 with no homers, 2 ribbies. Always a mystery.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Volpe, Volpe, Volpe!

    Great to see. Also, Cabrera ALMOST got hold of another one. The kids are all right.

    ReplyDelete
  18. And Soto! Nice. C'mon, HAL, we dare you. We dare you not to re-sign him!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Also, we have to give Boone his props for greenlighting him. What's going on???

    ReplyDelete
  20. I'm watching Fallout, it's addicting. Recording the game to catch up in a bit.

    ReplyDelete
  21. JM,

    A friend just recommended Fallout to me. Next on the list.

    Hoss,

    The accountants will let the intern know if they can re-sign Soto.

    aaaaaaaaand...
    Tomorrow, I will finally be allowed to watch a game (without adding to HAL's pocketbook). Which means the Yankees will either be blown out, or worse, a pineapple loss. Almost afraid to watch.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Isn't PoPo a reliever?

    I am so confused. Hopefully just alcohol and not alzheimer's (or as my mother used to say "old-timers")

    (n.b., alzheimer's sPel cZek suggests altimeters)

  23. AA,

    Don't have netflix. only xxxflix. and amazon. well not an amazon. Mrs. Teasdale is actually quite petite. And no, NOT poteet.

    ReplyDelete
  24. That was a nice shot by Soto in the fourth.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Poteet shutting everybody’s mouths tonight (including mine)

    Have to check out Fall Out
    3 Body Problem was flat out great.

    Want something different? Check out Midnight Diner. It’s Japanese, with subs and dubs available. Very short episodes that tell simple but affecting stories

    ReplyDelete
  26. Three Body Chinese series or the new one?

    Poteet was fantastic. Impressive.

    ReplyDelete
  27. JM, The new one on Netflix…I jurist started the Chinese version on Prime

  28. Working all day. Missed both games. But it's a good day: A Yankee sweep of a division leader and I paid my taxes with enough left over to pay off the mortgage.

    Ahem ...

    THE-uuhuhuhuhuhuhuh-AHAHAHAAAAAAAAHHHH-UHUHUH-UH-UH-UH-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH-uhuhuhuhUHH Yankees WIN!!!!!!!!!!!

    And again: THE-uuhuhuhuhuhuhuh-AHAHAHAAAAAAAAHHHH-UHUHUH-UH-UH-UH-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH-uhuhuhuhUHH Yankees WIN!!!!!!!!!!!



    Fuck Hal.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Winnie,

    Nice about the mortgage payoff. It is an exhilarating moment.

    Of course, after I retired I decided to ....

    invest in property. Not bad so far, but now I want to get out and get back to zero debt.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh and fuck HAL with Ca$hole's bald head.

    ReplyDelete
  31. JM - the new series from David Benioff.

    I'm enjoying it so far although I do have some criticisms about certain elements and choices that were made.

    My daughter is providing detailed feedback on Fallout - which I will likely begin tonight.

    SWEEEEEEEEEEET Double Head SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! btw

    You may need a lubricant if YOU are overseeing that unique twosome.

    What would be your slickenizer of choice?

    ReplyDelete
  33. AA, I won't watch the new series. I enjoyed the books, and the Chinese series was a more faithful adaptation. One thing I liked was the very Chineseness of it all. It worked for me. But I know a lot of people won't ever read the books or see the Chinese show, so whatever works.

    ReplyDelete
  34. AA, I would provide all the natural lubrication needed if I ever got to actually fuck any part of Hal with any part of CashBrain. I would be raging! My vagina would flood the sex dungeon from anger and joy!

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm feeling like I'm living on the Wrong Earth.

    How in the fork is this poorly constructed and poorly coached team 12-3?

    ReplyDelete
  36. By playing, for the most part, even worse constructed and worse managed teams. Though it won't last.

    ReplyDelete
  37. In addition - I ask - WHY THE HECK AREN’T THE YANKEES 15-0!!!

    There can be no excuse for this underperformance!

    Heads must roll.

    What an embarrassment to all that is sacred!

    I may not be able to sleep tonight…

  38. Godzilla-sized pineapple is coming...
