Hah! It's not THAT bad
In 2 weeks time I’m going on holiday to Italy with 9 friends and I’m the only sucker who speaks the language.
I took two years of it in college.
But it’s been forever. I probably can read it a lot better than I could speak it.
My college didn't even offer Italian.
I think French, German, and Spanish were the only foreign languages offered.
that's pretty cool
I would imagine that your efforts in the language will please the locals.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
Some places, it does
I’m not sure about Italy, but in France, they don’t appreciate it too much if you try to speak their language and butcher it.
Mi dispiace, ma non comprendo.
But I think you asked something like, “Did you visit Italy, or did you study in school?” I’ve never been, though my dad lived there for two years. I had to study a language for my major, so he convinced me to choose Italian.

Io ho avuto tre semestre per Italiano al'universita...
… ma non riccordo molto.

Triste.
Non sono molto bene con le lingue in generale, ma mi piace Italiano. Spero che non ho dimenticato tutto.

Voi siete bravi
Mi sono laureato in Italiano (come maggiore; il mio minore era gli studi di film) ma non lo uso quasi mai in questi giorni. Triste pure.
See, I can totally understand you guys when I read it, but I've lost most of my vocabulary.
So I can’t respond. I do, however, know and use the phrase “Un guaio e successo.” Which means “A woe has happened.” Family inside joke.
Mio maggiore e cinema.
Non ho un minore in Italiano, mio minore e filosofia. USC ha un requisito courso in una linga (tre semestre). Cinese era piu dificile, e io ho cambiato a Italiano.

I guess I was wrong about them, I thought they’d gotten healthy and the bats would be better.

I would have mentioned you but...
there was someone else in a thread I responded to, and I couldn’t remember their name. So I decided not to name any.

I am sad the Cubs fans are asses
As I spent a very happy holiday in North Chicago just a couple of train stops from Wrigley. Lovely place.
Okay, I have a sort of related question that's been bugging me for years.
When a fan gets banned for life from a stadium or arena or whatever, how on earth do they enforce it? Or is just mostly symbolic?
wrong guy was kicked out as well
for the beer throwing incident

“NL Manager of the Year”

Alechemy in what sense?
Team chemistry?

Assuming you mean the earlier part of the season as lead, and not the Rockies...
… then sure.

It's what alchemists do right?
It’s not my nickname.

Alchemy can be loosely described as 'working with substances"
Especially from a mythological perspective. Turning lead into gold would include that.

I'd rather call him
2010 NL All Star Game Mananger

better than 'The Composter'
uhh, sorry nerd garden humour…
"What I speak out of my mouth is the truth. It burns like fire."

Eaton is the long relief guy tomorrow too
I don’t think Tracy can pitch him and have him available for ~3 innings tomorrow.

Though I hope we don't need him tomorrow...
better safe than a tired bullpen.

Best I can find:
“The term derives from hockey’s hat trick and since four is bigger than three; the rationale was that a four-strikeout performance should be referred to by a bigger hat, such as a sombrero.”

Ya, was hoping for 6-1, but...

I have NO problem with 5-2.

I don't feel too bad
I mean, I like him a lot, but he had the players to make this charge, bullpen aside.
Watching the purple row from high atop the big brown monolith on California Ave
Oh yeah, and....
…if Ronny Cedeno doesn’t go from 1st to 3rd on a GROUNDOUT, then we pitch two shutouts in a row. Curse you for your hustle, Cedeno.
I think he was auditioning for the Rox next year…
Watching the purple row from high atop the big brown monolith on California Ave
Tough assignment tomorrow
Facing Josh Johnson. We don’t see Nolasco in the series, though.
We get Johnson, VandenHurk, and Volstad.
VandenHurk’s given up 6 HR’s in 26 innings, 5 of them IN San Diego and Washington, both noted home run yards….
I suspect we’ll have a big pitching advantage in games 2 and 3.
Watching the purple row from high atop the big brown monolith on California Ave
yep we have the slight advantage in game 3
first 2 games is pretty big advantage each side…let’s take 2 of 3!
