I watched a little of this game because I think games in the snow are fun to watch. It got out of hand so I switched to Jets-Bills, which is pretty competitive.

In NYC, I was switching between the Giants getting stomped in N’awlins on Fox and a very entertaining Purple Shootout on CBS. Then CBS informed me that I would rather watch the pregame commercials and opening bits of Bills@Jets than the last two minutes of the Ravens’ attempted comeback in Minnesota.

Which surprised me, because I could’ve sworn it was the other way around. And thus I missed “Favre’s late heroics crush Ravens’ 17-point rally,” as the ESPN headline puts it. It was really heroic of Favre, standing there on the sideline and pushing the Ravens’ game-winning field goal wide left with only his Childlike Enthusiasm for the Game®.

for some reason we were able to watch it, DirecTV Sunday Ticket… usually when it’s blacked out…. it’s blacked out – not today.

 The pigeon on the field was hysterical. The damn thing lined up with the Raiders on a kick off, flew down the field with the line and helped contain the receiver when it got there.

comments on last nights angels-yankees

Did anyone else notice the asinine comments that Buck/McCarver were throwing around last night with regards to the so-called “neighborhood” play? How ‘bout the fact that the winning runner, Hairston, actually was saved from a bonehead running play by Figgins inability to handle the backup of the errant throw at 2nd base? Hairston never bothered to see if the play was being backed up; he would’ve been out by plenty if Figgins made a clean play on his backup.

on TBS a few minutes ago, Ripken said that the way to get away with that is to touch the base while receiving the feed, then come off early if you have to avoid the runner. It’s just astounding to me that a long-time player like McCarver, and a catcher at that, would insist that it’s some sort of an unspoken “rule” that you can be in the vicinity of the bag. Recockulous. The rule is be on the base, anything else is just fortunate if you get the call.

What was even funnier is while they were analyzing the play, they claimed that Aybar was off the bag on his previous plays, but when they went back and actually looked at the footage, they found that in each instance he’d been on the bag.

No, the neighborhood play is real. There are probably thousands of examples of it in any given season. The problem last night is that he really wasn’t in the neighborhood. There was a lot of space between his foot and the bag. You don’t have to literally touch the bag, necessarily, but you’ve gotta make it closer than that.

The rule in theory is touch the bag. The rule in practice is be close. Aybar did neither.

In practice it’s definitely be in the vicinity and that goes in every level of ball. On the other side, a lot of leeway is given to base runners when sliding in to second as far as whether or not they stay in the base-path.

I just assume they’re using blue corn rather than yellow. And blue corn tortilla chips taste the same as regular tortilla chips, so I figure the difference is purely cosmetic.

So you get runs from the border?

It’s funny. I used to eat at the Bell fairly often in Cali. But now, never. NYC is kinda a sewer, and I’ve never assumed the best of Taco Bell employees’ interest in adhering to health codes. So when you combine the two? No thanks.

The chain I avoid due to guaranteed buttpee is White Castle. I was all excited to try it when I first moved out here- because of the movie and all- but upon observing a strong correlation between my eating there and my gastrointestinal regions auditioning for a role in Alien, I quit.

When I first graduated college and was looking for a “real” job, I worked in a toy store, and ate those damn Taco Bell bean burritos every day. I think they were like 69¢ or something back then, and they had a little punch card, for every 5 you bought you got one free. Bean burritos, top ramen, and mac & cheese, things I never eat now

Bean burritos

I am in North Carolina and when you are travelling around the south there really aren’t that many options. If you get off the highway and look for something to eat you are presented with the usual choices…

-McDonalds
-Burger King
-Hardees
-Taco Hell
-Wendys
-KFC
-Pizza Hut

I don’t eat a lot of meat, so bean burritos or 7 layer burrtios with no sour cream and no guacamole are my staples if I am starving and surrounded by the usual suspects…Smother that shit in hot sauce and get a Dr. Pepper and you have sustenance of some sort…

Given our current Reign of Terror Management Team I hesitate to say something like this but experience does help a starting pitcher. If nothing else learns how to pace your body and be more effective later in the season. .B-R has Cain throwing 2 200 IP season and a 150 coming into this season while Babs had 1 150IP and 1 200 IP.

From mlbtraderumors

Should be fun to track the comments for this one. Read the last line

Chris Haft of MLB.com reports that Giants outfielder Randy Winn wants to re-sign with the club as he enters the open market for the first time in his career. Haft writes that it is “easy to surmise” that San Francisco will choose not to retain the 35-year-old as he had his worst offensive production in a 100+ game season, posting .262/.318/.353 with two homers.

It should be noted that while he struggled at the plate, Winn was still strong defensively. Seeing time at each spot in the outfield (but mostly the corner positions), the one-time all-star posted a UZR/150 of 15.5.

Winn – who projects as a Type B free agent – is coming off of a three-year pact with the Giants worth $23.25MM. While Fangraphs valued his 2008 performance to be worth $20.4MM on the open market, his play in 2009 is quoted at $8.1MM.

Does anyone here think that Brian Sabean & Co. should look to retain Winn? What kind of contract do you see him fetching on the open market? Let’s hear your thoughts in the comments section.

Like the article said. Winn is a good 4th outfielder. Perfect as a late inning defensive replacement. As long as Bochy would use Winn like he played Rich Aurilia this year I’d be okay with Winn returning.

Didn’t the XFL draw over 25,000?

From Wiki
The team played in Pacific Bell Park in San Francisco; despite having the smallest stadium in the league, they also had the highest average attendance (34,954).1

Speaking of goats

I was in Grass Valley one day and an old Ford Pinto wagon parks on the street. The car has two goats in the back seat. The driver, an old guy gets out and walks into a store. The goats begin to devour the upholstery from the top of the front seats, ripping huge chunks of vinyl off and swallowing them.

I obviously couldn’t just walk away so I stood there for nearly half an hour, watching the shoe.

By the time the driver returned the white stuffing from the seats was strewn all over the interior of the car and as best as I could tell there was no vinyl left on the front seats.

Great show that was.

I forgot which network said it but they said Utley’s arm is hurt based on the way he threw that error during game 2.

If you haven’t played ESPN.com’s Streak for the Cash yet, you should give it a shot. It’s free to play, and you could win $1 million. But beware: It’s addictive.
Since it’s a known fact that a football column must include some sort of pick or the universe folds in on itself, here is this week’s selection:
Philadelphia winning margin over Oakland total points: It’s a tough set of choices this week. Luckily there is one that allows us to bet against JaMarcus Russell. We’re confident Philly is going to win by more than zero, and if this was margin of victory versus Russell’s QB rating, we might still take the Eagles.

I have questions. I asked these somewhere else (sorry Baron for spamming!) but …

1. What’s on Fleas’ nose?
2. Why does Martin’s jersey say J. Martin?

I don’t watch games on TV so I do not know these things.
