The YouTube clip is just an excuse to get this out there...

Only a team managed by Grady Little can get two guys thrown out at the plate DURING THE SAME PLAY (in the playoffs).

Spicoli had a good take on it during Baseball Tonight as well...

T.J. said...

I don't know how I'm going to work today after learning Teapot Tim is leaving the Hot Morning Mess (good luck to the non-DC people figuring out that one).

Mark said...

I'm betting that Teapot Tim is one of your local radio jerkoffs and he WAS a part of The Hot Morning Mess.

T.J. said...

I can't outsmart you Florida people...

Teapot Tim was the douchebag guy who had to do all the lame stunts on the Top 40 morning show, named after Jerry's sexually-frustrated morning releases...into a sock.

T.J. said...

I'm sorry, but that clip of Cartman still has me laughing...

"I do what I want...whatever, whatever..."

Mark said...

Last night's South Park was pretty solid too. I especially enjoyed the montage.

T.J. said...

I'm listening to Rick Astley right now...

Mark said...

Never gonna give you up...

T.J. said...

This 1 o'clock first pitch is really messing with my day...

rob said...

mussina's got his panties in a bunch because jeter made him throw 7 more pitches.

T.J. said...

All this free time you now have...given half the Dodgers are ex-Red Sox perhaps you should start a Dodger Playoff Blog, hopefully drag Tommy Lasorda off my f'ing TV screen...

rob said...

grady little's doing his best to ensure that the mets go through to the nlcs, despite starting my daughter in game 4.

rob said...

AAAAAAAAA-Rod.

T.J. said...

I will be on a conference call from 2-3...between you and the Deadpsin live blog I won't miss a beat.

T.J. said...

They call me MISTER Thames!

rob said...

i'm conducting an interview from 2-3, so i won't be of much help. i'm looking for a new latex salesman.

rob said...

zoolander's throwing a lot of pitches.

T.J. said...

Buster Olney has some doubts about Grady Little's baseball acumen in his blog today.

Mark said...

Was I the only person who wanted to throw his remote at the TV yesterday when Steve Phillips was praising Little for calling consecutive pitchouts to start an at bat with two outs in the 8th (and Reyes on first)? Only to turnaround and say that Broxton "lost focus" and that's why he got in a 3-1 hole to Beltran.

I know it's a crazy thought, but how about focusing on the batter and getting the one out you need in that situation...

Whitney said...

Oh, Johnny Damon.

T.J. said...

Ugh...

T.J. said...

What an abortive bottom of the 8th for the Bombers...

rob said...

looks like a-rod's having a terrific outing. have the natives chased him out of the bronx at pitchfork-point yet?

rob said...

anyone think tiger nation is super-confident with todd jones on the hill in a 1-run game? me, either.

T.J. said...

Even if Posada strikes out here, he can quickly fly away with those Dumbo ears of his...

T.J. said...

5 straight foul balls for Damon...

rob said...

what happened to cano - mlb.com is behind

T.J. said...

Fucking GameCast...motherfucker...god damn it

T.J. said...

Damn pesky Tigers...why couldn't they have just played in the drizzle last night?

rob said...

forget a dodger playoff blog, 4 of the 9 padres in today's lineup played for the sox, including 2 of them this season. go friars!

Mark said...

First Bama, and now the Padres Rob? We may have to fight soon.

rob said...

seeing as how i'm about david eckstein's size, and you wouldn't hit someone that reminded you of david eckstein, i think i'm safe.

T.J. said...

Plus, if I remember some crappy feature on Eckstein correctly, isn't here bound to die of some sort of hereditary thingie that has afflictd the rest of his family? You wouldn't hit a terminally-ill shortstop would you?

Mark said...

A terminally-ill shortstop? Yes. A terminally-ill shortstop who's the all-time hit leader in UF history? No.

I don't think he's terminally-ill actually. His whole family has bad kidneys or some shit like that.
