Open Gameday Thread, 3/23
Tim Lincecum and Randy Johnson against the Mariners. Johnson promised that he was "going to put one in Pinella's earhole," and no one really wanted to correct him, so this should be interesting.
If you want to know how baseball would be different if the MLB schedule were only 16 games like the NFL schedule, here's a good indication. Lincecum would start every game, and Johnson would come in when Lincecum was fatigued.
Con: less baseball.
Pro: the Giants would probably be contenders.
I gotta go with the "pro" on this one. I'll send an e-mail to Bud.

Anyone know how to make peanut sauce without using a food processor? Someone broke mine and nobody will cop to it, and my new family only has a shitty blender that doesn’t work very well. I wanted to make some pad thai for dinner but without a food processor for the sauce I don’t think I can do it.

How finely do you need the peanuts processed? We’ve made peanut butter with the kids at school by having them use rolling pins – put the peanuts in a baggie – and roll away. At one child’s suggestion we once tried using a hammer to mash them, I don’t recommend this method, unless you have some latent hostilities you’re looking to let go of.
We can’t make peanut butter anymore… too many kids have allergies to peanuts!
The recipe I have says to put peanut butter, scallions, and hoisin sauce in a food processor and process until smooth. I was going to do the peanuts in a baggie with a rolling pin anyway but would it give the same flavor if I just went with crushed peanuts in the oil?

So OT: the Marlins got approved for a new stadium, finally, and in 2012 or there abouts when it opens, they will be renamed the Miami Marlins. What do you all think?
Article
Great news!
Even greater location. The capacity is also smart because the 37,000 seats can create a demand. Hope things work out for MLB is South Florida. Plus the Marlins are loaded with talent
Is the money there?
Is it there for stimulus package? Is it there for the bailouts? Is the 1 trillion there for toxic assets?
“The cost of project is $625 million for the stadium and a parking lot. It’s a public/private venture that includes input from the Marlins, Miami-Dade County and the city of Miami.”
"Officially, the county will own the ballpark. "
Also found this tidbit pertinent to an earlier discussion:
“The Marlins will seek hosting the finals of the 2013 World Baseball Classic. And the organization is confident it will be awarded an MLB All-Star Game within a few years after the doors in the new park are open.”
all look same?

I think the NFL wants people to spend time with their families on Thanksgiving without watching football…Raiders at Cowboys????
Are you serious? Is that happening this year? My wife and her family are Raiders fan (Lifelong 49er fan, football is a touchy subject around the house, she hates to hear how terrible the Raiders are).
