I went cliff jumping once. Dunno how high it was, maybe four or five stories, but it was high enough you had to wear shoes. |
|
Caryn (#91): I jumped from about five feet once and broke my foot in half. Go figure. Crosswise or lengthwise? |
|
Crosswise. Broke the three biggest metatarsals in half when I landed in a muddy patch of grass and my foot slipped backwards. Current novel word count: 26,800 words (I'm hoping by putting it here it helps motivate me)
|
|
Ow. Game Developers: Don't forget the zombie monkeys.
|
|
For some reason I'm thinking of Caryn being strapped to a bed and Kathy Bates standing over her with a mallet. |
|
OK, so m0nty's a sick, sick individual - what else is new in the sports thread? I can't help being angry when I'm furious!
|
|
I don't think that's new... My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in

|
Yeesh, the Colts are running low on defensive tackles. |
|
Bah, you don't need DTs! Simon down is a big problem I'm thinking... My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |
|
He didn't play last year... |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__

He played some last year, no? Did they cut Simon this year or is he injured again? And with Booger down, that's pretty much nothing on the front line...sadly enough. My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |
|
Simon didn't play last year. Released last week. |
|
So...756 and all that. |
|
All I can say is it sure took him long enough. What's he on pace for this season? 20? |
|
You mean 756* I watched Aliens, and I didn't even get a lousy t-shirt.

If I cared about baseball at all, I might be a bit peeved that a man who, by all accounts, is a big time steroid/stuff user. But, it being that I don't care, I chuckle at the thought. The baseball management made a deal with the devil, so to speak, in the 99 season, and the details always get ya when you do that kind of shit. My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |

Steely McBeam? Wudi Wudi Wudi. WTF are the Steelers thinking? Explain yourself. |
|
So...756 and all that. Here in Europe no one gives a shit. "Why would I wanna read the book? All I'm saying is, I see a game every day. I watch baseball every day. I have a better understanding about why things happen than the computer, because the computer only tells you what you put in it. I could make that computer say what I wanted it to say, if I put the right things in there. ... The computer is only as good as what you put in it. How do you think we got Enron?"

Here in Europe no one gives a shit. What are you going to tell use for your next trick, that no one in the US cared who won the premiere league finals? <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.

#110 by McBain So...756 and all that. Here in Europe no one gives a shit. Did people give a shit here? It didn't seem to be getting close to as much coverage as when Sosa was accomplishing whatever HR thing he accomplished. |

You know who was a nifty ball player? That Henry Aaron fellow. But you know I hear that terribly well compensated Alex Rodriquez chap is, by dint of youth and talent, on pace to break Aaron's home run record. That'll be an interesting day in baseball, when and if it happens, won't it? |
|
You know who sucks? Graeme Storm. He shot a -5 yesterday to lead the PGA Championship, and then a +5 today to be tied for 12th. "Games are not novels, and the ways in which they harbor novelistic aspirations are invariably the least interesting thing about them." - Steven Johnson
|
|
Actually Storm shot +6 today. And yay, an Aussie tied for first! |
|
Oh wow, he did. I guess he was on 18 when I typed that, heh. "Games are not novels, and the ways in which they harbor novelistic aspirations are invariably the least interesting thing about them." - Steven Johnson
|
|
And apparently most people outside of SF don't give a shit either. I dunno. It was pretty big enough down in Southern Ca. when I was on my vacation. I was watching the Giants and the Dodgers go at it in the Hotel bar's TV and a ton of people were either joining me or stopping by for updates. Still, this would be much bigger if it weren't Bonds. But you know I hear that terribly well compensated Alex Rodriquez chap is, by dint of youth and talent, on pace to break Aaron's home run record. Personally, don't think A-Rod will get it. My crummy little life
|
|
I'd like to think A-Rod would...anyone other than Bonds as it were. But he'll have to stay healthy and productive for a fair number more years. Not as easy as it sounds (and it doesn't sound easy). I remember when Griffey was on pace. My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |
|
He's 32, just broke 500, so it's possible. Give him another 10 productive years and it could happen. That's an average of 25 HR/year or so to meet the current record. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.
|
|
He's 32, just broke 500, so it's possible. Give him another 10 productive years and it could happen Another 10 years? Are you high? A-Rod doesnt' have the ego/spite that Bonds has to keep playing a game even though his knees are just bone grinding against bone. My crummy little life
|
|
yeah, A-Rod won't be that productive into his 40's without the same kind of help Bonds got. My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |
|
Probably. I heard an opinion that the driving force behind Bonds taking steroids was longevity. Of course, until steroid use is proven, the point is kinda moot. Bonds and A-Rod were harder runners that Aaron. The play hard defense and stole more bases. I think A-Rods legs will start giving out around the mid 30's and I don't think that he will feel the need to stick around to be HR king. Again, Bonds had a giant ego and such spite against his haters that he really has gone above and beyond to hit this milestone. That's just the way I see it. My crummy little life
|
|
To be fair, Bonds isn't accused of just taking 'roids, but also HGH and a slew of other things. HGH is not only untestable, but that's exactly what it's supposed to do. I hear doctor ads locally now about getting started on HGH therapy... My intelligence, then, is not absolute but is a function of the society I live in
"I'm not sure it's possible to make a "subtle" jab at Matt's writing ability." - Ergo |

It was amusing that the other day I was talking to a coworker about how A-Rod has been seemingly doing what he's done on the level, and then the next day I see a headline on CNN.com's sports section where Larry 'Chipper' Jones was saying that steroids were going to follow him, too. Apparently Jose Canseco says he has some "info" about A-Rod. And really, Canseco hasn't been much wrong, even if he looks the fool. |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__

Good ol' hanged. Still ingesting Barry's cream and clear, I see. :P I watched Aliens, and I didn't even get a lousy t-shirt.
|
|
Chipper was kind of misquoted and it really pissed him off. He wasn't accusing A-Rod, he was saying that in this era everyone will get hounded with questions. |
|
It is the Steroid Era and every slugger will be tainted by it. What is a shame is that everybody is ignoring the pitchers which were just as juiced. As King Kaufman says, only time will tell how these players will be remembered. I think Barry will be viewed as the best player of his generation before steroids and the best juiced player during this Steroid Era and unless he gets convicted, there will always be an asterisk by any asterisk attached to the record. Good ol' hanged. Still ingesting Barry's cream and clear, I see. :P Heh. I was expecting that. My crummy little life

Field at Monster Park now named Bill Walsh Field. One of the loudest cheers came when Mayor Gavin Newsom announced that the football field at Monster Park will now be called Bill Walsh Field. Many of the roughly 8,000 people who attended the service rose to their feet in sustained applause. "We love you, Bill," said a fan. Monster Park still own rights to the stadium and the name will still be just that, the field however will be named in honor of Walsh. |
|
That's great. Hopefully the new stadium, if it ever gets built, will be named after him with no corporate name tacked on. |

|
|
Not as far-fetched as you might think, the voters in SF passed a referendum to ban future corporate naming of Candlestick, but because the Monster Park agreement was already in place before the referendum it was not rescinded. Not sure whether it would apply to the new stadium or not. Probably also depends on the stadium being built in San Fransisco proper, which is unlikely. |
|
*sigh* Bless San Francisco for their impotent proclamations. Since the Niners staying in SF proper is pretty slim and I think this will make it even slimmer. That said, I agree wholehartedly with it. It was never Monster Stadium, in my eyes. It was always Candlestick. My crummy little life
|
|
I have less trouble with stadiums that got corporate names from the beginning, but it really bothers me when stadiums get renamed. Is FedEx Park a new stadium or just an old one with a new name? I have no idea. When I hear "Monster Park" it means nothing to me, it doesn't immediately trigger as "home field" the way Candlestick does, and if you go around the league naming stadiums I'd be hard pressed to tell you who plays where. You get none of the sense of history and place that you did with something like RFK or Comiskey Park. At least Lambeau Field hasn't been renamed yet. |
|
A company should name themselves Lambeau and grow big enough where people will think they bought the name rights. <Hugin_len> Basically, cheesy doesn't have awful taste in music, he's simply very white.
|
|
At least the word monster has a meaning other than "some corporation's name." Also, I approve when fans give a corporately named stadium a nickname, IE when the Philly fans renamed Lincoln Financial Field "the Linc" not 10 miuntes after the name was announced. Even more so when the people from Lincoln Financial cried about it. "We paid a lot of money for those rights. Please use the full name and give us respect." "No, now bite us." |^^^^^^^^^^^^ |||__
