they should have a mercy rule so the angels have more energy for tmmrw
Halladay making it look too easy...
yea GMJ swinging threw belt high 91 mph fastballs... what a great pitcher.....
he does'nt even have to get us drunk first.
WTF got into them? or rather, what got sucked out of them? They are zombies
it seems that every time the angels are down a lot they never seem

to look like they’re trying to come back

Probably because any time they find themselves this far in the tank

they know that they have Justin Speier in their future.

sad but true
BTW, remember our conversation a while ago

about me taking the lead in the parental roles….OH YEAH!!! mommy rules, daddy really drools!

Sounds like you need a tropical smoothie from Jack..

…in-the-box.

for everybody else, that is codespeak for "ladybug finally got to ride up in the front seat with grandpa".
GMJ batting .500 for the game.

3 pitches standing there watching, and
3 pitches flailing at thin air.

it's games like this I like to remind myself

Every team wins 1/3 of their games and loses 1/3 of their games… it’s what you do in the other 3rd that matters…

...so, which1/3 is this?
the 2nd one
i think that the clippers are playing in the lakers jerseys tonight

the lakers are sucking again

lakers came in the first quarter, the clippers came in the second.
Doc is rolling..
10 pitches, 9 strikes. I was just noticing the same thing.

Just go up there and hum strikes. It’s not like the Halos are going to threaten to do anything with them tonight anyway.

So...anybody see any good movies lately?
im going to see star trek tomorrow.
I am pulling for a perfect game, just to piss you off. Because I am jealous.
wait what?
You have to leave the house in order to get into line for the midnight showing.

So you should have to split about the 8th. the clock ticks. Do you wait or do you go?

oh im not going to the midnight showing. 7pm tomorrow.

the imax tickets were sold out for midnight.

State of Play
hell no, I have kids

The Usual Suspects is one of my faves

They replay Dutch on TV a lot.
Dutch?

you are comparing that to Usual Suspects?

Doesn't everybody?
grrrrrrrrrrr
If it makes you feel any better, I haven't seen any either

And I don’t have kids. Though I watched Ninth Gate the other night, but that’s not new. Still like it though…

This past weekend...

Mrs Sothball the ever beautiful Mrs. Sothball and I watched “The Godfather”…I had forgotten just how good it was. What a well-crafted movie!!!

We also watched “Slumdog Millionaire”…interesting movie. For whatever reason, I really liked the music.

It is my long-held personal opinion, tightly held and defended to the death, that

The Godfather is the one absolutely perfect film ever made. Every. Friggin. Frame.

also

The Rock

All I know is that The Rock was big in Vietnam. I saw the highlights on television.
Yeah...I understand why.

I do not recall seeing it since 1980?…can’t quite remember. The wedding scenes were…just…phenomenal. I truly felt i was a part of a big fat Italian wedding party. Friggin great movie…

The hospital scene.

When Enzo the baker is standing outside on the steps in an overcoat under dim lights, defenseless, and stares down a car full of mobsters armed to the teeth. He doesn’t even realize what he has done, or how close to death he was. The tension drips from the screen. Every element of that scene is spot on perfect and the total is waaaay beyond the sum of each brilliant part.

Yeah..it as Michael Corleonethat stands on the steps with him...

…after showing him how to “appear” to have a gun in his pocket. Yup…one of the little details of the movie that is totally convincing.

And the camera placement is just distant enough to compel us, the audience,

to identify with the confusion of the mobsters because we cannot really discern the truth, which is in conflict with the fact that we DO know the truth.

Not an accident.

Saw Slumdog Millionaire earlier this year and loved it

Mainly because it reminded me of living over in that part of the world. They did not, however, translate the dialogue verbatim. There were several f-bombs that did not appear in the subtitles. Mairey choot!

LOL...

…kinda like in "Airplane where the ’bro’s say “…shiiiiiit…” and the sub-title says “Darn!”.

Exactly. And Airplane is awesome!
Lloyd Bridges,"...I guess I picked a bad day to quit drinking..."
lots of "looks like"s

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit smoking.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines

That is why The Usual Suspects is so lame.

Not enough Looks Like’s

it's NOT lame!
Yup...very funny!
Another film that had deceptive subtitles is Borat

When he speaks ‘Kazakshtani’ he is actually speaking Hebrew, and the subtitles are completely off from what he is saying. Makes it even more hilarious for about the .1 percent of the population that understands hebrew.

Never laughed harder in a theater than I did for Borat
Saw that on the plane ride back from Hawaii jsut a couple of weeks ago.

Surprised that I really did like it a lot.

i just saw an Adenhart jersey in the stands
:''(

tear…

Amen 'bro...

…hate to say it, but I try to avoid thinking about it. Still too painful. I keep getting the image of his dad standing at his locker….

that chokes me up too
I had an incident when I lived in Ohio

when a 5 yr old was brought in DOA to the ER. I was a couple weeks pregnant and hormonal as it was. I bawled all day and when I picked up my oldest at his after school care, I told him…just let me hold you and cry. The mother’s cries of “wake up, stop goofing off like this, wake up” still resonate in my brain. I can not fathom that pain

I feel for you. That is so, so painful.

I ust ca’t imagine the depth of the parent’s pain.
In January, 2008…good friends of ours lost their son to cancer. He had battled it for 4 years. He died at the tender age of 18.
It’s hard to describe how it’s affected them. It’s like a big gash down the middle of their foreheads…they are still… zombified? There are just no words…

NAPSTER

3 runs this inning, three runs next inning, three runs in the 9th and we WIN!!!

I'll toast to that...

..cheers!!!

now

Napoli cooling off a tad.....

...goood balance between "watch" and "swing" (and miss)...
Speier on the mound, Q on 1st, Willits in the outfield........

Soth has officially thrown in the towel.

this game is depressing
So how was your son's prom anyway?
did you tell his date that she better have him back by 10?
she turned stupid on him

it was for this Saturday…..and she got all goofy teen girl on him so it’s off (for now)

ahhh, women... :)
women are fickle beasts

but they smell good

no... ahhhhhh GIRLS!
typical aim conversation

girl #1: lol jk g2g ttyl bye lol rlly g2g bye!
girl #2: lol jk bye!
girl #1: lol jk rlly g2g. bye!

you missed the

“if you keep bugging me, I’m not going to go”

so I told my son, call her on it. Say OK, you are right.

or the.......

“Im not afraid to go back to jail” line :)

Gubiza, "Speier has missed with a lot of pitches this inning."

No shit Gubby, what else is new? Where is that pendleton guy?

Speier has bases loaded for Rolen, let's see hoe this turns out.
yup.....he's a tool......

:-(

that's what she said
they keep coming and coming and coming

is this an orgasm competition or a ball game?

Overbay, panther.
there's a pizza parlor where i live called pizza orgasmica

fyi

white cheese- all natural!

Somebody left the gates unlocked at the stadium this afternoon.
number 8 pitcher....

against very hot offensive team…….and thus you have this result.

its a shit fucking sandwich

and speier is the gourmet

And Mike gets the ol' heave-ho!!!!!
halladay wants his CG

he’s not gonna bean anyone

Let's Go Angels!
Howie do wacka do!
What is Howie thinking???
Hoping for a WP to break the shutout, perhaps?
...hit took care of that....

…maybe momentum for tomorrow…

Way to redeem yourself Mathis.
The Mighty F'ing Q!!!!!!!
Reggie, Reggie, Reggie!
shoulda sent mathis....

especially with Reggie coming up

This is where we need Wood

and that 14 run dinger that everybody here at HH just KNOWS is up his sleeve.

Yes...2 TD's and extra points on one swing...
TD. Followed by...

Kickoff that the return specialists lets roll towards the sideline back on his own 3, letting the ball go out of bounds for the penalty. But then, just before it does, one of the players on the kicking squad scoops it up and falls into the end zone. Another 7 points and zero time off of the clock.

Uh...2 outs now. What's the next play?
come on Angels...only 12 runs.....NO PRESSURE!!!

none, none at all.

If Speier finishes this inning...one more point!!!
He's reliever number 4, yeah?
3
I may be in luck then. I believe I picked 4
3 i think....

R-rod, Bulger and speier

WHAT-THE-F-EVER
f-ever=forever?
you betcha
I think #3

Rodriguez, Bulger, Speier. Or did I miss one?

speier

ftW!

When did Speier become so fiesty?

Maybe he’s reading HH?

At least Halladay will get no CG SO satisfaction tonight

Glass is quarter full…

...and draining...
I'll refill it tomorrow, don't worry...
Speier launching all sorts of F-bombs at the ump as he exits the field....
Panther- Kobe

Brings down the depression

LOL OMG wtf was speier doing hahahah
