Break Things

PrintFollowing today's game I feel like breaking things. I recommend others do the same.
Among the things I would like to break:
- the Detroit Tigers pitching staff
- the umpire crew in Chicago
- Kerry Wood (check)
- the strike zone
- Lou Marson's catching equipment

I'm in Detroit for a couple of days...
Anybody want me to break something here?

I’d rather he just throw strikes again.

I work in a pizza shop, and I was rolling out dough during that inning.
That dough was much flatter than it should have been by the time I was through with it.
I’ll bet she gets to eat pizza too – and any way she wants it.
Now if you could have a brew or two to wash it down, that’d be perfect!

Well, I had my phone hooked up to the stereo system in the shop so I could listen to WTAM with the At Bat app. The owners of the shop also own a bar, and beer was most certainly called for (I do not turn down a pity Amstel Light from a bar owned by a Pirates fan, no sir).
Halfway through, I started naming the dough balls. Jensen Lewis. Phil Coke. Rafael Perez’s sad slider. Johnny Damon’s hair in 2004. The Twins. It helped.
Jeremy Sowers’ pitches the third time through the order….

OK, I’ve looked at the picture in the original post like 20 times. I can’t figure out how that isn’t going to really hurt that guy.
I figure he must have had something against his forehead (behind all the wine) to keep from badly cutting his head. I have a hard time imagining he isn’t getting some minor abrasions over his hands and the sides of his head.
That would be well done, but it’s not impossible. Also!, could have been shot in separate images where he was wearing something completely protective, and then he was inserted sans ‘helmet or whatever’ later.
Or simply, the bottle is not made of glass. (Hollywood ‘breakaway’ bottles.)

I am highly doubting it is photoshopped, but I would be willing to put money on a breakaway bottle.

It’s real. One of my friends actually used this image in a project – it’s from a study about whether it’s more painful to get hit with an empty or full bottle, and which has more force. Apparently a full one, if broken in the right way, it’s that painful at all.

Boo ya.

History is made at night. Character is what you are in the dark.
I will break some news to you, Adam.
I will break the news that we have a shortstop who will go to the All-Star game six straight seasons.
That Hector Rondon is going to be even better than you hope.
That Carlos Santana will make us remember why we loved Vic — and then make us wish that Vic were as good a hitter in his Tribe days.
That Hafner is going to be an .870 OPSer for three more seasons.
That Chris Perez hates strikes but he hates blown saves even more, and he has to pitch based on the latter.
That Choo is going to become an American citizen just to stick to his military.
That Sizemore is going to stay healthy, hammer the ball, re-sign with the Tribe, and win an MVP in 2012.
That Valbuena is going to be fairly Val-good, but LaPorta is going to be Val-great (praise be to Jesus) and Brantley is going to be better than all of them.
But in 2010, we will continue to royally suck.

When did the Browns leave St. Louis?

From “Milton Bradley Is Annoyed” on Lookout Landing, a preemptive gag order:
(Note to fans of other teams that may conveniently choose to drop by: shut up. You didn’t “show us.” This isn’t an incident. It’s practically nothing.)
Gee, I thought they were all gleeful over there. Huh.

That two run error today in LF, also of no concern.

I’d put money on Milton Bradley having what LL would classify as an “incident” before the All Star break.

An absolute classic scene. Anyone who’s worked in IT really knows how this would feel.

Don’t even have to work in IT to appreciate that
