Shit, just to show you I don’t care I’ll start sporting it right now and you can come up with an even better one between now and the series. When is that series anyways? August 18th seems to be a date stuck in my head.[/quote]

I cant remember if it’s been posted already. If you get a chance watch the HBO thing on Jeters 3000th hit. It’s not that long and is pretty entertaining. It was well done IMO.

I played baseball with Brett Lawrie from the age of 10-18! Went to high school with him too. It’s so surreal to watch him play. The kid is insane. He’s a year younger than me; turning 21 this year. [/quote]
His sister is bangable.[/quote]
Quite. And possibly even a better athlete than Brett. She should have been born a man. [/quote]
I sense disappointment from you that she wasn’t…[/quote]
Ha!
She dominated in the Olympics. In relative terms she is a better athlete imo. That’s quite the statement considering Brett is 20 years old, batted 350 in AAA with 18HRs in only 69 games, and is projected to possibly develop into the Jays most deadly bat.
The Giants are struggling big time. Getting beat by a Pirates team that has been playing horrible. On another note, Heath Bell blew a huge save tonight. Not trading him could come back and bite the Pads in the ass.
Just don’t start thinking of the smell of stale whiskey and rotten sausages and two day old omelettes and warm beer and bleu cheese and fried peppers and roadkill.
I recommend a big Bloody Mary with lots of Worcestershire sauce.

horseradish makes a bloody…that and A1 sauce[/quote]
Where were you when I was still drinking? A little pinch of wasabi and a little pinch of horseradish, combined with a few dashes of Tabasco really hits the spot in one of those. Clamato rather than V8 was my preference. I think I was the only one of my friends who would ever drink Bloody Marys.
One fortunate fan will get a chance to take swings off Tim Lincecum next spring.
The Giants ace is challenging fans to a video competition in which they are asked to duplicate his unorthodox delivery on video for an opportunity to hit – or strike out, for that matter – against the two-time NL Cy Young Award winner at spring training next year.
The entry period for fans to submit their best version of the right-hander’s pitching motion began Tuesday and goes through Sept. 16. They can go to Redirecting....
Lincecum says the “Red Bull Ultimate” competition will be judged in multiple rounds based on creativity, originality, performance and skill level, and demonstrated passion for the sport and Lincecum.
Entries are limited to one per person.
Lincecum, the shaggy haired four-time All-Star, is 10-9 with a 2.69 ERA and 165 strikeouts this season for the reigning World Series champions.

That actually sounds really fucking cool! I think I could duplicate his windup pretty well to be honest. My motion was sort of a cross between his and Kevin Brown’s, albeit more like Brown’s than Lincecum’s.
I think it’s a bi of a fallacy that his motion is that unorthodox anyways. I don’t want to rehash that deadend argument I was involved in the old MLB thread, but basically he does everything right, he just does it all in an exaggerated manner in order to maximize every pitch. If he just toned everything down a little and he was 6’4", 215 he’d look pretty normal.
