Around SBN: Odds On Peyton Manning's Next Home Includes Three Teams

Tigers Win! Game 151 Afterglow

Things that go "Boom!" in the night?  Tonight, it was the Detroit Tigers' bats.  The road team was swingin' in Cleveland. Everyone in the starting lineup got a hit.  Carlos Guillen homered from both sides of the plate. 

And Justin Masterson probably has tire tracks (or should that be Tiger tracks?) on the front of his jersey.  Not a good night for the young man.  He'll probably learn from this or something. 

Tigers beat the Indians 11-3!  Full recap later on.  But for now: glow, baby, glow.

Plus, it looks like the White Sox might actually give the Twins a game at The Cell tonight.  So a few of you might be keeping track of that.

Meanwhile

The Red Sox are beating the Royals 6-2, but the Royals have eleven hits off Josh Beckett. That’s hard to do.

Meh

I have a bunch to talk about still. I’ve reached that point in my career where page limits are a bigger annoyance than floors.

oh man

I got to that point too.

and then given my career was journalism, after graduating the limits became 750 words, then 600, then 450, then 400 …

I hear ya

When we write our annual performance reports in the AF, we have one line on a form to completely entail everything a guy might have done for a specific thing. And you STILL have to follow the "What did he do? What was involved in him doing it making sure to include every number/stat/detail possible.. and what effect did it have on himself/those he works for/or the Air Force on a whole.. Doesn’t matter if you have a whole month’s work with multiple stages blah blah blah…you only get 74 characters to detail it in. And don’t you DARE come up short and leave white space at the end of a line…

I think the longest paper I wrote was 13 pages

It was for History of Cinema, and it had to be between eight and eighteen. I wrote on the history of MGM. It was actually pretty interesting.

I had 25 pages for my political science class at the 400 level

if you’re a baseball prospectus for fivethirtyeight.com fan, it was from nate silver’s dad.

40 pages

Did it in two days- research paper on the Cardin/Steele race in 2006 and the political advertising in the race. Sure, about 10 pages were transcripts, but those were hand-typed transcripts.

I am a giant nerd.

I should know this

I looked mostly at television ads and the debates though. I remember a controversy like that, however. Just very happy my Professor did not…

mine mostly entailed reading Bush vs. Gore.

from every justice’s point of view and arguing for one side or the other being write. based on the group you were assigned to, didn’t matter if you agreed or not.

tigers win another road game

we’ve beaten the Indians by a combined score of 15 to 2 the past two games

by Jay the Great on Sep 23, 2009 10:23 PM EDT reply actions  

Well then...

Hopefully they can even out that runs for/runs against stat I’ve been seeing the Tigers getting bashed on this week.

I see the White Sox are playing dead for the twins....again

One can only hope they'll be just as accomodating to us

Somehow, I doubt it

I went to see them on Friday...

They have shut it down for the season. They got crushed by KC. I was glad to discover that it just doesn’t happen to us. But Ozzie had lost it the day before and yanked the majority of his starters and the Sox fans around me said he’d been toying around with the lineup quite a bit recently.

I'm bored

I’m firing our game back up. does anyone want screen shots of anything (besides rick because obvs I am all over that)

by allikazoo on Sep 23, 2009 11:02 PM EDT reply actions  

I can't rewatch it yet

It was the seventh inning when I got home, but I have to wait, like, an hour and a half for them to lift the blackout restriction.

Miggy gave a death stare to Veras after being called out on strikes.

I can’t remember if there was any hilarity value or not. Maybe worth investigating.

He was the worst sox guy to have up in that situation. We are going to have to finish these bastards ourselves.

I didn't like the line

“we’ll just have to go and take it out on Detroit after the off day”

by Detroit4lyfe on Sep 23, 2009 11:26 PM EDT up reply actions  

I don't even know what that guy's name is

I mostly just refer to them as Hawk and “other guy”

You mean he actually talks?

I thought he was just there for the stereo effect when they yell “Yes!” after a home run.

by Elfuego51 on Sep 24, 2009 6:15 PM EDT up reply actions  

Now, that's no fair playing crappy against one contender and showing up against the other

They can’t play favorites.

Hawk will never respect the Tigers. At least Mario & Rod respect all the other teams no matter how good or bad they are.

on my way to softball...

Ed farmer, the sox radio guy, kept talking about how the twins would catch us and how the sox march up so well with the tigers. I meant match up.

man he's right though

and haha if you caught your typo soon enough to announce it within the post why didn’t you just go back and change it? lazzzzzzy haha

plus Dye going off tonight didn’t bode well — that means he’s going to remain hot because he tees off on us.

by Detroit4lyfe on Sep 23, 2009 11:57 PM EDT up reply actions  

hawk doesn't respect anyone

considering he calls everyone “the bad guys”

by allikazoo on Sep 23, 2009 11:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

I guess one thing to take from this...

…is that over the last two nights, Minnesota has outslugged Chicago more than anything else (both games ended 8-6). Hopefully that means their pitching is starting to regress to the level it’s been at most of the year. On the other hand, if they can beat up Jon Danks and Mark Buerhle…

(Of course, I didn’t see any of the HRs they hit off Danks, so it could well be some of those would have just been flyball outs at Comerica Park).

Royals ended up losing 9-2

Hopefully that doesn’t steal their mojo. They DID get 12 hits in the game, all off Josh Beckett.
