Yeah, that.....

Or that NW St 10 run ruled the NC team last year in a midweek game. :lol:

Yes, this was same timeframe.

I was never satisfied with the flight or distance. Constantly pushing the limits.

And one day, it happened. The wind, the winding of the band, and the throw were perfect. Down the neighborhood street with more altitude and speed than ever before.

Straight over the fence and into the pool of a neighbor 3 doors down and across the street. I managed to climb the fence and get it, but not before getting caught.

I also experimented a lot with weights, strings, and handkerchiefs, making parachutes. My dad was an electrician, so I had so many gadgets to perfect my science. :lol:

All I’ll add is that you must do the Colosseum

I had to choose b/w the Vatican and Colosseum when given only 5 hours. No regrets about Vatican City (we paid for a VIP tour through Viator), but our taxi to airport detoured to pass around the Colosseum and the collective mouths of our group dropped in total silence

I now have to go back. But we only had 1 day in Rome after 8 days in the Tuscany area including Florence

I might do Rome and Amalfi Coast on next trip there

I’ve been out at the high school fields and have followed almost every pitch for LSU outside of yesterday’s game.

My expectations for this year are maybe a couple games above .500. The mismanagement of the Framber situation was understandable, and I think has cleared my system.

We will inevitably regret not moving Pena, but again, any chance of making a run required his presence. With the certain lockout looming, and the same orgs abusing the present system, my goodwill has waned, resulting in more of an overall appreciation of what the last 10 years have done for my 50+ years of devotion.

No ill will to NIH, but I have switched recently from wine to bourbon as my evening unwind, so let the chips fall where they may.

Cantrelle got his first Spring hit with the Cubs yesterday

Teurlings beat CHNI 2-1 today at Teurlings

They were outhit 6-2. Scored on E-2 throw into LF on steal of 3rd and on a close play at the plate on single to CF. Might have missed the call but it was bang bang

Closer game than expected with Vincent throwing.

Schmidt got 12 outs or so, 9 were K’s

Sure pitch count was high, always is with that many K’s. Gonna get full counts, and those are followed by foul balls half the time.

Pitchers that possess “stuff” with control issues don’t wake up with command. His numbers would tell that he is progressing. He will likely start getting closer with his chase pitches, getting his off speed over early, and not having to come with expected FBs, or at least commanding the zone better.

People have short memories. Think Chase Shores as recent as last year from the end of the previous season. Even with his electric “stuff”, he got in trouble with free passes and had 98 mph FBs squared up

Schmidt will be fine

Now this is what this thread is all about for me.

Can't really describe my thoughts when seeing this pic initially.

Great find

Looks like Kentucky lost their projected 1st round pick Bell for a while with a shoulder injury. Happened in their first series, maybe first game

I feel like the very simple fix to this is Paredes full-time at 2B and Altuve/Yordan platooning LF/DH. As we all now, Altuve’s range at 2B is no more. And he’s somewhat serviceable in LF

I have even a more simple solution that Mr Walker will undoubtedly provide in a not so convenient manner, as soon as he sees that steady diet of 95+ FBs
