Around SBN: Ryder Hesjedal Wins Giro d'Italia

Post-game thread: Giants, Burrell beat Cubs

It's easy to ignore the human side of baseball when you're a nerd like me. Player X has a BABIP of .423, which means his BA/OBP/SLG will slide when regression drunkenly hits on the mean, so, duh, the Giants should acquire him.

But when a player struggles as badly as Pat Burrell did in Tampa, it's hard to know what's really going on. Burrell was a lifelong Phillie, he wins a World Series, and then the next thing he knows, he's DH'ing under a gross dome. He doesn't know anyone. The fans don't know him, and he starts to slump. And he slumps. And he slumps some more. The seasons is lost, but that's okay because the next season is just around the corner. And he starts the season with another slump. Yeesh.

Some players curl into a ball and retire. Burrell got lucky and got to go to his hometown team. And for the free the Giants are paying him, he just might be the best acquisition of the year, non-Huff division.

So here's to Burrell. Keep feeling comfortable. Say "hella" when you feel like it and listen to some Death Angel. You're home now. And if you can keep hitting those eighth inning go-ahead home runs, that'd be just swell.

It wasn't a game the Giants had to win, but it wasn't not a game they couldn't win.

I’m not saying that there isn’t great stuff in the South. I’ve visited fairly extensively and enjoyed it. But Austin was the only town I’ve been in where I felt really comfortable. Everywhere else, I just felt very out of place.

Yup, with about a week in each. Also Savannah rocked.

But i never got the same feeling as I did in Austin, Portland, Seattle, or Vancouver. They are all great places, but something about them didn’t make me feel particularly comfortable. I’m generally more comfortable in places with a more transient population and therefore less of a “history” or social norm.

I just don’t feel right being all “Yeah we’re expecting Alex Smith to be good” and then being like “Matt Leinart is guaranteed suck hellz yeah” when dude’s thrown like less than 250 passes in the past 3 years combined.

I get this weird similarity vibe between all of Smith/Leinart/Young. The high draft pick thing. They all sat for hella long for various reasons, and now Smith and Young at least have established this “at least league average” sort of thing with some promise for better things to come, and Leinart is kind of right behind them, knocking, being all like “hey guys, remember me?”

He had all the attention on him and the orginization made it tough for Smith

He has had a few different offensive coordinators in his time. The knock on Leinart and Young is their commitment to their teams and the sport. I like Smith more but I think Matt is going to surprise a lot of people this year. He has all the tools one needs but needs to apply it. Smith is in a stable situation now so I want to see what he does. I don’t think Young has it anymore.

Emotionally he is a time bomb also. Remember when he lost his job and the Titans still took off. I don’t think he is their leader and if Fischer wasn’t his coach then no one would see him as a starter.

Not at all.I think he knows that he can snap at anytime and put a damper on the season. It is a tough call to make starting a guy who is talented but can drag your team down or a good guy with average skills.

There is nothing wrong with me cheering for players that are former players for my teams. Unless they become a Viking.

Panda Bear

appears to be be coming around the bend with his hitting. He seems to have adjusted his stance- particularly the high leg kick. I know we’ve seen a few solid games out of him esp after the ASB, but this looks different…

One can only hope. Panda getting it together could seal the deal to the playoffs.

Generally when people on FB write “My boyfriend is the best!” it’s more code for “I want attention!”

Don’t even worry about all the never been on a date stuff, it feels like a relief once you’ve done it, but afterwards you’ll realize you put it on too high of a pedestal.

Yeah, that’s one of the reasons I don’t talk to him every day. I don’t want to be that girl who annoys him with “hi” messages.

But, ugh, all my friends are like, “he likes you! he’s totally into you!” and that just gets me all confused about the whole situation.

Well I have a girl like the one you just described that always sends “Hi” texts but I never reply. I’m not saying that’s the case with you but yeah good thing you’re not constantly trying to contact him. It’s weird, hopefully it works out for you.

Yeah, usually when I talk to him, I have something to say, not just a simple “hi” or a “hello.”

Well, I mean, is he really shy? If he is shy or has low self confidence like myself that could be a reason he rarely texts you first. He is afraid of annoying you, but if he doesn’t answer your texts, then, honestly, you need to give him some space.

Well, then, if you like him, you might have to make the first move. But again, if he hasn’t responded to any of your texts, either talk to him in person or give him some space.

Well, he’s in Arizona right now, so the talking to him in person thing is out of the question for now. But I’m thinking of just … backing off for a while. Give him some time to himself and whatnot and then talk to him again. If I still like him then, and he still shows that he might be into me, then I’ll ask him straight up about this. If not, then I’m just gonna move on.

I imagine that they might let Belt skip AAA (or spend very little time there) but I doubt they will (or should) do that with Neal.

LOL 49ers

With all this Balmer stuff going on I went back to the 2008 Draft. Join me down a road of fail.

1. The Patriots had out pick at #10 and selected Jerod Mayo. Also available was Pro Bowl offensive tackle Ryan Clady. Nice job trading for Joe Staley.

1st Round: Kentwan Balmer DT (Fail)
2nd Round: Chilo Rachal OG (Fail, Desean Jackson & Matt Forte went a few picks later)
3rd Round: Reggie Smith CB (Fail)
4th Round: Cody Wallace C (Fail)
5th Round: Pick forfeited for tampering with Lance Briggs (Epic Fail)
6th Round: Josh Morgan (a great pick for this late)
7th Round: Larry Grant LB (7th Round so whatever)

That is almost a complete whiff on a draft. What a fucking disaster

4th Round: Jay Moore DE (Who?)
4th Round: Dashon Goldson DB (nice pick)

I love Huff
What do you think of Wilson’s orange shoes and the fine?
I loved his shoes. I think it would be a kick if everybody on the team wore those shoes on Orange Fridays. I understand the league has to have rules, but this is one rule I don’t understand. Who cares what he’s wearing on his feet as long as it’s not distracting to the hitter? And really, if you’re a hitter and you’re looking at Brian Wilson’s shoes while you up at the plate, you shouldn’t be in the big leagues.
