this is just getting awkward

there’s insinuation now that you have worn thong underwear and had some sort of sexual encounter with Jason Giambi.

Which is awkward and more than likely against the rules/regulations

best night of my life. that was at the 35 degree/snowing game 3 of the NLCS in ’07. On the jumbotron 4 times. Got free hot chocolate and hand warmers. Got our picture with like 30 random people. And willie taveras pointed us out to Tulo in the pregame warmups.

ya it was a blast

especially after going to meaningless Rockies games my whole life, it was fun to go to one that meant so much. and the sign was just one that they gave to people walking in. i think it just says “Rookie of the Year: Tulowitzi” or something like that.

Carlos misses a hr by four feet to center

Double. That’s two near home runs this inning. Also, barmes hit a fly ball out with authority to right. Don’t see that often.

from a friend

I had to look up the play log for that and it was amazing how every one of them but the last, and Scott Rolen who walked, was first-pitch swinging. Sheets threw 3 pitches and gave up 3 hits, walked Rolen on 4, gives up 5 more hits on 5 more pitches, works a full count on Chris Dickerson and then gives up a home run, and is finally pulled for Fernando Hernandez.
