It's one of the more subtle moments.

I didn’t notice it until about the fourth or fifth time I watched it. It may only be obvious if you’re like me and you know a lot about space/time continuity.

In the scene where the guy goes to pick up Kramer at his house (and gets attacked by the dog), Kramer comes down stairs and starts getting into uniform in front of the mirror.

He walks right up to it, clearly.

After a couple cuts, it’s hard to notice, but suddenly Kramer is actually INSIDE the mirror (on the other side of it, as though it were a door), and he walsk back out the way he came before when they leave. Hilarious!

by Greg Stanwood on Jun 29, 2009 9:02 PM MDT up reply actions  

There are a lot of other funny filmmaking jokes in there.

Including the one where they use rear projection behind Kramer has he drives to the airport, and it doesn’t match up with the steering wheel movements.

If you're interested in looking at the mirror joke:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1amYd47CQs

Go there, and navigate to second number 0:50. You’ll see the dog attack the guy, then Kramer walk down the stairs, and walk to the mirror.

It cuts away to the guy being attacked, and when it cuts back, you’ll see the wife still looking where Kramer is supposed to be, but instead he walks through the mirror instead of away from it.

by FooMan on Jun 29, 2009 10:04 PM MDT up reply actions  

The app is built to take the data the stadium equipment records and build a pitch out of it.

All the operator has to do is input the numbers. However, if the equipment isn’t working, they can just click wherever they want to record the pitch. You know when that happens because the pitch is just a spot on the graphic with no data or trail attached

They do that sometimes also if they fell behind and need to catch up.

The gameday profile is updated with the data in between innings or after the game if that’s the case.

by Greg Stanwood on Jun 29, 2009 10:09 PM MDT up reply actions

I’ve been part of the Rockies online community since I became a fan. For 2006 and 2007, I was mostly on the MLB message boards. I knew about PR as a new source, but not a sa community. I didn’t really show up here until ST this year.,

Well, people read

As the larger papers had good, lengthy articles. But baseball, yeah, that was tough. It was very difficult to follow a west coast team on the east coast. You were always getting the box score a day late.

Barmes hit a weak grounder to Hudson @ 2B who flipped it to Furcal for a sure DP...

…After receiving the toss and tagging second, Furcal’s throw richochetted (so?) off of a sliding Dex’s helmet. Barmes was safe at first (and probably could have taken 2 bags since the ball rolled out into CF). Todd flied out to LF to end the inning.

Probably case of saving him hoping you wind up needing him as closer later in the game.

9th inning, runner on 2nd no outs, you need your best pitcher, future of the game be damned,.

Street’s been in 3 straight? or 4?

by FooMan on Jun 29, 2009 10:54 PM MDT up reply actions  

3

He is not technically unavailable, but it’s clear they’re trying to avoid him. He did 4 straight earlier this year, but was then out for like 2 days. Better to make sure he’s ready to go tomorrow and Wednesday.

I wondered about his usage back then and found only once instance when Oakland used him 4 straight, and it was before his injury year.
