Don't laugh, it's a steady income stream

I was stumbling around the intertubes yesterday and found this advertisement (pronounced ad-VER-tiss-ment), revealing the secret side business of our fearless blog leader.

A tad on the racy side, but perhaps the Marketing Department discovered this approach tested better than Ellsbury bent over, holding his lower abdomen.

At any rate, Duque, now we know how you can afford publishing IIH with so many bells and whistles.

Continued good luck with this endeavor.

Did you 'find' that as a pop-up in that Ukrainian chat room site?

Apparently there is also a similar merkin ad somewhere, considering the sketch.

We getting rained out tonight? Raining again in New Yawk.

Howdy, JM. I just awoke from my pre-game nap (01:00 AM here) and got “The event is in weather delay.” A quick look at the NYC weather forecast for tonight says “Thunderstorms during the evening will give way to cloudy skies after midnight. Low around 65F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 100%.”

For tomorrow: “Rain showers in the morning with numerous thunderstorms developing in the afternoon. High 73F. Winds light and variable. Chance of rain 80%.”

Do I sense some doubleheaders in August?

JM said...

They are playing, down 2-1. Happ the victim of "seeing eye" hits tonight. Stanton has fouled out and called out on strikes just now, the last two strikes clearly outside. So it goes.

JM said...

Ahead 4-2 by hitting singles. The same guys as always this year, including Sanchez who hit a roller against the shift.

Then Stanton whiffs on three pitches, taking the first, a strike, then swinging at the next two, both balls and not exactly close.

He's back.

Carl J. Weitz said...

Yup he's back! So far: 3 AB, 2 whiffs. Same as it ever was.

No way they can cut Maybin now.

Someone will need to incur a tweaked gonad and go to Jacoby Land.

Leinstery said...

What exactly does Hicks add?

JM said...

Defense, so far. I'll give him more of a chance but batting 7th or 8th.

Mayvin is playing great. Axe a pitcher. Should be an easy decision. Which means they'll fuck it up, of course.

The Parrot has left the park.

Joe of AZ said...

God answer every Yankee prayer and get Stanton the fuck outta town....and move Hicks to eighth,ninth....the pine.

Leinstery said...

7 years for a defensive replacement. They don't call him Coops for nothing.

Fake News!!!

Of course Frazier took it fucken personal...he's looking at Stanton laying a goose egg and old man gardy and his .225 and dropping and our achy breaky 3hole defensive specialist and scratching his wondering what the fuck else he has to do to stay in the majors....if I'd him I wouldn't report at all...

Loved to see how well Maybin played tonight. "And I'm telling you, I'm not going—"
