The ASTROS/BREWERS Homestand Thread

I received full tuition to any in-state university of my choosing so it would've been hard to pass up. Lol.

Going to school in Cali would've been dope, but it would've been expensive as hell too.

 

SF loses. Chance to pick up a game tonight.

 

Sweet deal bro. Graduating UG w/o debt is great.

 

No doubt. Good going

 

Can't help thinking about Timmeh, and his odd delivery, which mesmerized so many so often...like Vin, for instance. People were gobsmacked at what the guy did, and how he did it. And many scoffed at the notion that someone his size, with all that torque and recoil (or whatever you want to call it) wouldn't sooner or later, betray him.
Looks like it may have. He burned white hot for two seasons, and is still capable of superior games...but overall, the great Lincecum seasons are over.
He leaves the ball in the zone so very much, and his velocity has dropped year after year.
I saw it in Dontrelle Willis, with that silly thing he did, and he faded fast. I wonder if that's the deal with PigPen?

 

For sure! Med school is going to be a bitch though.

Thanks man.

 

8 more years of school

 

Gwynn CF
Herrera 2B
Abreu LF
Ethier RF
Kennedy 3B
Loney 1B
Ellis C
Gordon SS
Bills P

I'd much rather have Ellis batting 3rd/5th.
So far he has shown the ability to get on base and hit for power.
Let him hit when people are on base. Not 7th when Kennedy/Loney are sure outs.. And if he does get on, Gordon and Bills are sure outs.

Like the article at FG said, the dodgers are leaving runs on the table.

Would much rather prefer

Gwynn
Herrera
Ellis
Ethier
Abreu
Loney
Kennedy
Gordon
Bills

 

Yeah, really though. I've never really like Shilling off or on the field, so I can care less that he lost his money. I feel bad for the developers who were under him, especially the ones with the double mortgages.

Totally agree, regardless of what your stance is on anything, there needs to be more education on measures/props/etc, and/or people need to stop being so fucking lazy and do some research before you decide to vote. Smoke and mirrors.

 

Pretty much the same thing happened to me, cept it was nacho cheese on my authentic Kemp jersey. Almost went ham on those fuckers lol. That's why I can't stand DS or our "fans" sometimes. I mean every fanbase has them, but goddamn are the Dodgers (and Raiders) BAD!

 

It's everywhere bro. I'm glad I graduated UNLV when I did, fuhh. Programs and classes getting cut left and right. Tuition rising, more bullshit online classes, less professors, more bullshit online classes, bigger classes. All bad.

 

One time at DS i was eating panda express. this shit is like 9$ for dry ass chow mein and like 6 pieces of orange chicken
some drunk guy kept putting his head back hitting the back of my chow mein box. this happened 3/4 times and i was like the fuck is this guy doing..
Just as i was ready to say something he leans back again, his big head knocks my chow mein down. acts like he didnt do it. I was probably 14 at the time and he was a huge hispanic paisa so I didnt say shit. But thats the shit I dont like.

 

Woo! That's rare, nigga. Woo! Ric Flair nigga!

 

there used to be these massive moths floating around DS. not sure maybe they still do but i don't remember seeing any lately.
anyway it was back when they served beer all game and me and some barracho amigos were going for a beer an inning.
around the 7th one of these moths flies in straight for me. with my beer in my left hand i swipe across my body and slap the beer out of my left and directly onto the guy behind me to the left. hes huge and now his lap is dripping with beer.
my stupid apology is met with one request. please stop drinking. no problem. i didn't drink anymore. in my seat anyway.
it can always be worse.

 

Can already see Chad overthrowing on that 0-2 pitch to Altuve, missed location by 2 feet

 

Just like Bills to get ahead 0-2 and give up a double.

 

The more I look at the way this series will unfold, with Bills , a real bust so far , IMO, and Norris on the mound...we really needed to win last night. No crying over spilled meatballs from CK, but damn...Bills is so undependable.
First inning. Already this fucking guy is in trouble. WTF is going on? With this lineup so limp dicked, being behind at all in the first is muy malo.
