Tiny by Judy Steffes on

ACCORDING TO THE TABULATED BASEBALL GAME FOR YESTERDAY'S MATCH VERSUS ARIZONA DIAMOND RAYS (LOSE THE GAME 0-2), IT APPEARS AS IF RYAN ROHLINGER IS NOW DOING SOMETHING FOR THE PR DEPARTMENT?

CAN YOU PLEASE CONFIRM?  I WOULD SINCERELY APPRECIATE A STRONG SOURCE FOR THIS.

IS THIS PERHAPS A CLINIC FOR KIDS?

(NOW I GATHER THAT I AM SUPPOSED TO WRITE SOMETHING ABOUT 75 BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE CODE.  THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADS!)

Local TV. I’m doing a mini-doc on some of Arlington, VAs punk heritage (little known fact: virtually all of the DC punk bands recorded in a then-basement studio in Arlington called Inner Ear). Looks like we may get a sit-down with Rollins when he comes through in November as well, and at some point we should get together with Dave Grohl, too.

Dave slept on my floor when he was in Scream. This would’ve been in 1988 in NOLA, i think. Both of the Stahl brothers were total dicks to us, but Skeeter and Dave were sweethearts.

Awesome. I’m playing with Don’s interview on the Avid today. Unfortunately he told all his best stories after I took off the mike. Might have to go back a second time and just do a walk and talk down his memorabilia hall. Chris Haskett told us he’d be glad to be interviewed, too — unfortunately he’s in Australia these days and said we’d have to do it via video conference, which even in this day and age might set a new low for video quality on TV.

Judy is known as someone who is “very, very thrifty.” “I get candles for Christmas. My friends call them my space heaters because I normally keep the heat in my house at 40 degrees during the winter. It’s not that I can’t afford to turn up the thermostat, I just hate paying for heat.”

Larry Baear is a very beautiful man.

Also, I suspect she might be more upset that xanthan is planning their life together and their future children.

Serious Question: How does the Wisconsin Media ALWAYS trump San Francisco Media for Giants news?

Serious Question: How does the Wisconsin Media ALWAYS trump San Francisco Media for Giants news?

We get a lot of run here joking about this Steffes lady but after reading today’s SF chronicle:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/09/18/SPRF12VP40.DTL

at the bottom is a little tidbit about Rohlinger getting some work in at 2B. Who got the story? The flippen Wisconsin media!
http://www.mccoveychronicles.com/2008/9/11/612561/ryan-rohlinger-2009-2b

When Rohlinger was first called up, the Wisconsin media got the story about Sandoval and Rohlinger first.

When Manny Burriss went injured it was a Milwaukee radio station that got credit for it.

When Conor Gillaspie got called up it was a blurb from the Milwaukee paper.

My brother’s brother in law says that Bruce Bochy is a regular on a Milwaukee ESPN station.

I understand the we’re not very good but do you think there is something wrong about being trumped for stories from a market that should worry about beer and cheese before the Giants?

It is a sad affair that we can get run off Judy Steffes because she trumped our crap papers.

Excuse me while I jump off my soap box now.

by The Pablo Plan on Sep 18, 2008 10:25 AM PDT   0 recs

On the other hand, it was also the Wisconsin media that broke the story we were trading Durham & Taschner for Angel Salome, Darren Ford, and some minor league first basemen whose name I don’t remember.

That player was Brad Nelson. And the Brewers would have been raped on that deal. But the thing was even Sabean confirmed that was a offer on the table for Taschner and Durham and for what we know that offer could have been there or atleast wanted by the Giants. Still the major news on that deal was coming from the Milwaukee side of things. It is horrible. Just because he have a AAAA team doesn’t mean we have to have AAAA reporting.

Judy – As I can tell that you are a serious journalist with intentions to uncover a greater conspiracy beyond whether or not Ryan Rohlinger has been waivered or if he is with the PR Department. No need to be coy for your answer is in that adolescent mustache that Rick Rohl sported during his his first few days after being called up to the MAjor LEague Giants Sportsteam. I will have more for you at a later time, until then use your internet searches and keep your head to the ground.

“He’s a hard worker,” said Paul Klotz a senior on the team who knew Kling in grade school. “I don’t know if Ethan’s going to start this year but he brings a good look. He has to work on his technique and then he’ll come back next season a much stronger player.”
