OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Am I the only retard that thought the 0 for 3 UM had at the plate was kinda impressive?     The results were shitty,  but the approach was great.   
You can tell he's played this game before.   


You're not the only one.  Though I'm sad that Aramis is all the way down to 5th in the order, I am pumped that Milt is hitting 4th.  Once Lou realizes Fontenot should be hitting second, that is going to be a formidable 1-6 (Soriano, Fontenot, Lee, Bradley, Ramirez, Soto).  Jesus, you could very easily get 150 home runs out of those guys alone.

This is what you guys were alluding to, but UM drew 3-0 on the first two ABs he had. Then to 3-2. I remember at least one foul on those two, so he was able to force Pwnswalt to throw 10+ pitches to him in just 2 appearances. Just think of the intangible value this guy possesses.

Injury scare, dropped line drive, fan interaction that could have ended in a dead white kid.

Pretty good start.

When did this happen, and how did I miss it?

Uncle Milty chased a foul ball and stopped himself at the railing - at which point a young white man dressed in an oversized Cubs jersey reached out to give UM a handshake. UM responded by reaching out and shaking hands with the young man before heading back to right field.

It was fucking awesome.

Damn.  I don't know how I missed that, but it sure SOUNDS awesome.

I actually stumbled upon something useful during our shoutbox mocking of NSBB.



What makes it cooler is that Milton ADAMDUNN'd the Blum line drive earlier in the inning.
I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

Milton Bradley's every move is exciting to me. Watching him hit is a joy.

And Fontenot - holy shit. When he makes contact he murders the ball.

Dude's gonna hit .240.

I was going to say, did Fontenot learn how to hit a curveball yet?

Wasn't one of his hits on a low curve from Oswalt?

Are you trying to say that Fontenot can't hit a curveball?

So do you guys hate Mike Fontenot or just think he kinda sucks? I dig him. In a very gay way.

I'm not saying he sucks,  and I'm not saying he's good.    All I'm saying is that Cesar Izturis jacked a homerun last night,  and has never been turned away from riding a roller coaster at six flags.

Fontenot is 5'8" and Izturis is 5'9".  Fontenot has 12 career HRs in three MLB seasons and Izturis has 12 HRs in eight.  Mike Fontenot has never performed a reacharound on a teammate.  Advantage:  Fontenot.

Neither has Izturis.  That was definitely a reachUNDER.

Let's give Fonty a couple more months before we insult him with the Izturis comparisons.

If we want to get really technical, that was a reachUNDER with full cuppage and and massage.  Feh...semantics.

I've been ghey for Fontenot for awhile.  He's like Theriot only good.
Alright ,uh, later dudes, S you in your A's, dont wear a C, and J all over your B's.
