Open Thread, 7/17: Padres vs St. Louis

San Diego Padres @ St. Louis Cardinals

Remember back when Matt Vasgersian absolutely trashed St. Louis? He swore he wasn't coming back and yet here he is on my television screen.

Tonight's drinking game: Take a sip whenever Matt mentions "ozarks", "el caminos" or "humidity".

And Tony Clark is gone.

That right there is some kinda lineup. GO PADRES!!!

The money they could rake in if they just surcharged for the option of no blackouts...

MLB Advanced Media has got to be in the top 10 of the stupidest whatever-they-are’s in the world.

I’m not sure what my limit would be on spending more for SD broadcasts, but I know I would pay more if it were offered.

One time someone once said

and maybe it was Greg Maddux, that every pitcher is going to have about 10 starts out of 30 where he doesn’t have his stuff. I don’t think Jake has been off that much this year, he just seems human compared to last year.

I think there's a lot of us still lurking.

Unfortunately, in the off-season I paid 6 million dollars for a washed up 38 year old version of myself to post at Gaslamp Ball and he hasn’t exactly worked out. Even after I released myself, I didn’t improve.
