8th or 9th, depending on what they wanna do with Nando

If Hinske is starting (dumb) then Barty will probably hit 9th. If its Nando, Barty will probably hit 8th.

Ugh

In the NY market, Fox is playing Brewers-Reds, which means I’m blacked out. Because, obviously, it’s much more important to show a game between a team struggling to stay in the wild card race and a team that’s been out of the playoffs for months than a game between a team actually in the wild card race and a team fighting for division supremacy.

I didn't say you were a Yankees fan.

I said you should tell that to the Yankees fans in Tampa. This topic has been beaten to death. Attendance jumps occur the year AFTER respectability, not the year of.

I know the attendance jumps the year after

I remember in 1996 Yankee Stadium would be empty

But this particular game should be a watershed moment for the franchise

Glad to hear it is sold out

A Jays win would nice. Tomorrow, Toronto has Scott Richmond starting so that’s very likely a Sox win. Then Boston finishes with seven home games while the Rays are on the road.

My Razorbacks are horribly bad.

Arkansas defense vs. Miss State offense will be epic pathetic.

I’m indifferent towards Croom. Ever been to Starkville? Could any non-cheating football coach build a winner there?

The last two years were a lot of fun.

Too bad so many “fans” and boosters spent much of it trying to fire the coach by any means available.

The next couple of years will be very painful and I almost don’t feel bad about it.

I grew up playing ball.. Played at a high level for years. .. Its a million times better for players / and as a fan to be in the elements.

If the games were outside, you would have a hell of a lot less old people with cowbells, and more younger people chanting and screaming (like fans do). It just makes for a better experience as a fan.

by bucpimpin on Sep 20, 2008 5:10 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The problem with your opinion isn't what you're saying

It’s how you’re saying it. You’re presenting all of these off the wall theories as facts which make them sound stupid. What evidence do you have to back any of this up? Your personal experience ‘playing ball’?

Listen, most people here agree that outside baseball is better, but none of us are trying to say that it’s going to make the team better, or the fans better, or improve offense or whatever. There’s no proof any of that is going to happen.

by kericr on Sep 20, 2008 5:18 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The proposed park would've been excellent.

Frankly I don’t care if we’re inside or outside, I’m going to enjoy the game. If there’s a nice view, great, but even the dome has its perks. If crowd noise is a positive thing you should actually KEEP the Trop since it would hold noise better than an outside park.

by R.J. Anderson on Sep 20, 2008 5:20 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Trop would be far louder than it is with younger fans. (IMO) younger fans bring energy / Chants/ more drinking. Less Cowbell.

The dome makes for a comfortable pleasent environment for which elderly can go and spend the day.

The proposed park was excellent I agree. But ST. Wont buy it because the median age wont vote for it because it may be uncomfortable.

I went to one re cently and here is how it went. I live in New Tampa/tampa Palms.

Left at 5:30 for a 7:00 game vs Yankees.
Got stuck on 275.
Arrived at game in 3rd inning after very long walk up to Trop.
Left game in 7th inning to prevent same issue on way back.
Saw 5 innings of games for 200.00 worth tickets.
Wont go back. I love the team!

Tear out the NYY Spring Training fields on MLK and Columbus. Build it next to Ray Jay. .I don’t care.. Just don’t put in in a retirement community in BFE.

Here's what you did wrong

Took 275 instead of CC/Bayside bridge
Looked for parking up close
Left in the 7th inning instead of the 9th
Spent $200 on your ticket.

by kericr on Sep 20, 2008 5:30 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

That makes more sense.

But you still messed up trying to take 275 over there, especially during a Yankee game. EVERYONE takes 275. CC/Bayside to US19 is a faster drive by about 20 minutes, even though it’s about 15 miles longer.

In other news

That relay throw died so bad. Also a great illustration as to how much better Upton’s arm is than Perez. Upton throws that ball to Navarro without a hop.

by kericr on Sep 20, 2008 5:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

In a strange sense, I think that his bad arm helped out that inning.

Kaz doesn’t intercept that throw if it comes from Upton. No way of knowing whether or not the Twins score, but for certain there isn’t a double-play out of that.
