BYOBYB: Off-Day Open Thread

PrintWith no Tigers game on tonight, we can do some "BYOBYB," the open thread where you can discuss anything you'd like. Perhaps you'd like to chat about tonight's White Sox-Red Sox game. Can Boston make it a four-game sweep and help push the Tigers to a five-game lead over the White Sox in the AL Central? This can be a proxy GameThread.
Maybe we could talk about Brandon Inge's tattoos. I can't believe a player would get that kind of work done on his arms during the season. But I've also never gotten a tattoo, so maybe doing something like scraping forearms across infield dirt isn't as bad as I think. Those of you who are inked up, please enlighten us.
Or if you're in a more contemplative, less chatty mood, you could check out more photos from Anaheim. Allikazoo posted pictures from Tuesday night's game on her Flickr page. (She also took plenty of photos on Monday night, if you haven't seen those.)
There is also always room for movie talk in an off-day open thread. I know some of you have seen Inglourious Basterds, which I might try to catch tonight. (Although a part of me really wants to view the car wreck that G.I. Joe must be.) Anyone looking to catch one of the horror flicks (Halloween II, The Final Destination) coming out this weekend?
The night belongs to you, BYB Bunch. Make it a good one!

thanks for the linkage, hope everyone enjoys the pics
regarding tattoos, if he does scrape them on the grass or dirt in the next week-2 weeks, it wouldn’t be good for them. healing time varies depending on how good the artist is. I’d have to imagine he was pretty sore for a couple days too.
Question
I know it takes a couple of weeks for the area to heal, but is it itchy during that time? That would drive me nuts. I’ve been kind of wanting to get a tattoo for a while, but I’m too indecisive as to what I would get or where I would put it. My chosen profession also dictates that I’d need to put it someone that can be easily covered up (They sure do try to drill “professionalism” into your head in pharmacy school).

nah
the method I was taught is to keep it covered with A&D ointment for eight hours or overnight, depending on what time it was finished. you’re supposed to avoid showering as long as possible, but after 12 hours you should at least to wash the goo off. no scrubbing or super hot water for a week though, and no pools/ocean water/etc for at least a month. I still get compliments on mine so I must be doing something right :)
Figuratively and literally.
Farnsy got himself a tattoo on his forearm and threw up meatballs while on the mound.
I'm doing a live fantasy football draft at Buffalo Wild Wings tonight
Gonna totally nerd out. Should be fun.
technically, lead's gonna stay at best 4.5, what with the Twins also off
The question is whether they wake up in second or third tomorrow morning.

those death eaters with their forearm tattoos…the wizarding world must be a lot more buttoned up than the real world is these days if those guys are all walking around for years and years, and no one ever noticed the dark marks on their forearms.

Inglourious Basterds
I’ve seen the movie twice now so it’s safe to say I loved. The violence is brutal but it comes in small doses. What I loved is how Tarrantino puts his characters in uncomfortable situations and just runs with it. The acting is also terrific all around.

i haven't seen any new movies, but I just got a kitten tonight
he’s the cutest, sweetest little guy, white with a black cap and some back spots, he’s sound asleep in my son’s lap right now, he’s so affectionate and adorable, come on, how could anyone not love kittens?
http://old-english-d.blogspot.com
Congratulations on the new kitten.
Yes, kittens are adorable. But the older I get the more I appreciate the older cat. That’s why my last four have all been at least 2 years old. Still active, but not quite as frenetic.
Awww
Sounds like my old cat, although he grew up to be a really big guy. He died a few years ago, though. We haven’t had kittens in a long time. Our oldest is 13 and our youngest is 6. “My” cat is eight, and she loves watching baseball and going to bed. She thinks she’s human.

we already have an older cat, who's ten
she was an adult rescue, as was my previous cat, so I felt somewhat comfortable being “selfish” and going for the kitten :)
http://old-english-d.blogspot.com
Nothing selfish about it!
Depends on what you’re looking for. I’ve only had two cats from 8 weeks old, and they were adorable and sweet and died of unrelated causes within 6 weeks of each other. when they were 12 years old. Weird. But ever since then it seems whenever I’m ready to get a new cat, there’s an older one needing a home.

Allow me to attempt to add some controversy
Offseason plans for 2010
The Tigers should offer Placido Polanco (type B free agent) arbitration and let him walk.
Carlos Guillen and Brandon Inge should be traded for position playing prospects if they stay healthy and hitting.
Brandon Lyon (type A) should be offered arbitration. If he accepts, he should be dealt.
Trade Gerald Laird for position playing prospects.

Lyon only as an actual closer this time.
I like the draft picks we’d get for letting him go though too.
That's why we do it
The idea is to not contend in 2010 and save money and prospects for stronger contention in 2011-2012.
President, Vice President and Secretary of the Casey Crosby Fanclub.
by David Tokarz on Aug 27, 2009 9:18 PM EDT up reply actions
I don't like to do offseason thoughts until after the season is actually over...
But if we’re gonna let Rodney walk, we probably should keep Lyon as the closer (Who else would you make the closer otherwise?).
And perhaps last season made me gun-shy and paranoid about this, but I just flat-out don’t trust anyone other than Inge at third base.
And I would only trade Laird if Avilia or someone else demonstrated an equal throwing ability. I just think that it’s very important to have a catcher who consistently throws out runners.

by SabreRoseTiger on Aug 27, 2009 8:41 PM EDT up reply actions
Who cares who closes?
Put Bobby Seay in the role. Make it a closer by committee- the idea is to blow the old parts of the team off and to start making anew contender. Inge I could see keeping, but if he could bring back a decent position prospect, let him go.

by David Tokarz on Aug 27, 2009 9:20 PM EDT up reply actions
But by that logic...
You’d get even better prospects by trading away Verlander, Jackson, Porcello, Cabrera, and Perry, and I don’t want to do that. I agree that it’ll be harder to contend in 2010, but I was pretty much the only one who, in October of last year, thought we had the ability to contend this year.

You would
But dealing cornerstones makes it harder to compete- you deal the role players in order to get cheaper role players. It also frees up some serious salary so we can sign better FA’s in 2011 or even 2010.
And I thought we could too. :)

Hey poopz
I listened to and liked your music. What kind of pictures would this be the background for?
Thank you...
This is going to be the background for mostly outdoors pictures I do believe. I figured that ambient type sound would be good for those type’s of photos.
Anyone else interested in listening to the song go here and click the little green play button next to the title.
My Music: Some Sorta Giant
I get a sense of moving forward from that song
Like time is passing, so that’s why I asked. You’ve got some good stuff.
I try to compose things that could tell a story...
Building the song upon itself is a common thing I like to do that connects the song throughout itself so that the main point of the song is not forgotten or left behind while the story continues to develop.
My Music: Some Sorta Giant
If you do listen...
feel free to check out any of my other songs on that site…also feel free to download any and all of them. Tell me what you think, you’re favorites, critiques, all that good stuff.
My Music: Some Sorta Giant
oh, good, you're here!
I also listened to your piece – I liked it very much. Have you ever been to the Southwest? I ask because it has a very sweeping, horizontal feel like a lot of the landscapes out there, with the wide skies, towering clouds, and brilliant colors of the rocks that seem to glow in the setting sunlight. It makes me think of the Painted Desert and the sound of the wind moving unobstructed all the way from the Rockies.

Or maybe I'm just weird. :)
But that’s why I like instrumental music and non-English songs. Sometimes I don’t want to figure out what the singer is saying in actual words, but see what kind of pictures I can get in my head from the rhythm and the tempo of the music.
Yup, I’m a strange one.

Half the stuff on my iPod is in another language. I have English, French, Spanish, Italian, and Japanese all represented on my iPod, and I have an even wider variety of languages on my computer (Arabic, German, Hindi, Sinhalese, Russian, Polish, Chinese, etc.). The weirdest thing I have (and I ONLY have this cuz it’s so weird) is a techno mix of the Sesame Street Rubber Ducky song in German.

One of my favorites right now (actually, I’ve loved this CD since I bought it about ten years ago, I think) is a group called Yat Kha from the Tuva region of the former Soviet Union. They have a style of singing called throat singing, where each person simultaneously sings a deep tone and a high whistle. It’s hard to explain, but I heard them at a huge free arts festival in Baltimore and got one of their CDs right there, and have always loved it.

Most of my music is instrumental...
has alot to do with why I write exclusively instrumental music. Mozart, Beethoven, Bach are my classical inspirations. My modern day influences are anything Chris Cornell, Alter Bridge, most grunge bands, hip-hop artists(not to be confused with that radio shit that you hear). But pretty much if it’s a type of music I listen to it, except country. I think the very first band I ever got into was Creed.
My Music: Some Sorta Giant
Bach, Vivaldi, Chopin, Turlough O’Carolan – LOVE them. :)
One of my friends was rummaging through my CDs when I was organizing them once and claimed I must be one of the only people on the planet with Sting next to Beausolei next to the soundtrack from Jurassic Park next to hammered dulcimer music next to Druha Trava next to the Icelandic national anthem.

Post rock (I hate that label) and shoegaze tend to fall into that category
Most post rock is instrumental and shoegaze usually has vocals weaved into all the effects. Dreampop is another category.

Sounds like our hockey team
Years back (before I was born/knew what hockey was), we had the Toledo Goaldiggers (Mike Eruzione played for them at one point), then we had the Toledo Storm for many years (this is the team I remember). Then the Storm ceased to exist when the county decided to build a new sports arena closer to Fifth Third Field (where the Mud Hens play). So starting this winter, our new hockey team will be the Toledo Walleye (It could be worse…they were considering naming the team the Toledo Woodpeckers). They’re supposed to be the equivalent of a Double A affiliate of the Red Wings. We’re also getting an arena football team (the Toledo Bullfrogs).

Well yeah
On the Simpsons, the team is named the Springfield Isotopes. In one episode, they threaten to move to Alberquerque for some reason. When they were receiving entries for the team name, someone suggested giving Albe. the Isotopes they almost had and that became the name. I thought it was just because of that well known Los Alamos lab, but the Simpsons just makes it better.
