Dustin Pedroia – STFU

October 13th, 2009

dustin_pedroia

For someone who batted .167 in the playoffs, Dustin Pedroia thinks that the Fenway grounds crew is to blame for the Red Sox loss:

“I’m not lying about that. That is true. I think about those things. That stuff upsets me,” Pedroia said. “My job is to take 1,000 groundballs a day. Other guys’ job is to get the field perfect so we can play baseball.”

You stay classy you douchebag.

On a lighter note, the Yankees are thinking about going to a three man rotation for the ALCS.  That would mean CC could pitch games 1, 4 and 7.  But, because of where the days off land that would mean only pitching on short rest once.  This certainly helps the Yankees but in no way means this series is a lock.  The Angles are a dangerous team… but not as dangerous as the Fenway grounds crew.

Community/The Office/Modern Family

October 9th, 2009

A few TV notes I wanted to get off my chest:

  • Community is the second best new show on TV.  It is hilarious.  The entire cast is just amazing
  • The only new show that is better is Modern Family… this show is absolutely perfect.  Not surprisingly ABC picked up this show for a full first season.
  • It may have gotten a little dusty in SLTHQ last night during Jim and Pam’s wedding in The Office.  There, I admit it.  People love to bash The Office and say it isn’t as funny as it used to be but last night’s episode was one of the best ever.

I know you don’t care about any of the above items that’s why I included the Community mash-up.  I spoil you.

Seth Green “Freaks Out”

October 8th, 2009

Saw this video over at Barstool and it is 100% fake. Before I saw the Entourage season finale I may have thought this was real but not anymore. What’s the connection? Well last week Hurricane posted a Matt Damon Freak Out video and I thought that was real. Then, the following Sunday, Matt Damon shows up on Entourage and plays a hilarious version of himself that freaks out on “Vince”. Stop toying with my heat Hollywood.

A-Rod

October 7th, 2009

arod

I just couldn’t leave the below post at the top of SLT while the Yankees were starting their playoffs. Everyone should watch out for A-Rod this post season. He is going to squash all the rumors about him being clutch and I can’t wait.

LET’S GO YANKS!

Will the real A-Rod please Stand up

October 7th, 2009

I love this time of year. The weather chills a little so I can now rock my V-Neck shirt with a nice blazer. The brisk air in the morning wakes me up and cool me down. The pumpkin beer and pumpkin muffins make their way back to Heartland Brewery and Starbucks, and of course the real A-Rod starts to play Baseball.

Alex Rodriguez in the Regular Season is like The Black Crows before Kate Hudson, They were a strong rock band, who could put out and album anytime they wanted and sell out any stadium, but then you realize that was a long time ago. Now the Black Crows have broken up, Kate Hudson has ruined another career (matthew mcconaughey) and A-Rod will begin do like he did in ‘05, ‘06 & ‘07 playoffs, which was a batting average of .133, .071 and a stellar .267 (I would put 2008 but of course they did not make the playoffs), with all of 1 RBI in 55 At-Bats during that time.

But hey, at least I can get the pumpkin muffin from Starbuck and read the back of the NY Post where it will say “Where has A-Rod Gone”, or “Not Again”… at least something similar.

MLB Playoffs Start at 6:07 TODAY

October 7th, 2009

I know there is a 2:37 game today but let’s be honest, the people in Philly and Colorado don’t really care that much about that game… or is that East Coast bias?  Who cares.

Here is a link to a position-by-position breakdown (via LoHud) of the Twins/Yankees series. Why do it when someone else has done it and did it better?

I am nervous about this game. Twins are coming off a SICK run to get into the playoffs and the Yankees haven’t played a meaningful game in 3+ weeks. On the other hand CC Sabathia will be going against Brian Duensing so we got that going for us.

One quick thing that I want to say to Posada: “quick bitching about Molina catching Burnett. Whatever gives the Yankees the best chance to win you should be on board with.”

‘I’M A HORNY OLD WOMAN’

October 6th, 2009

I found this on Warming Glow, and I am basically going to write the game thing. So I watch the Today show every morning and I think Meredith Vieira is pretty good. I knew she still did who want to be a millionare but I never watch it but maybe I should.

Question:

The Childhood prank known as a “wet willie” involves putting a wet finer in someone’s what?”

Vieira:

“anywhere you want to put it max.”

Hey Meredith, why don’t you just get up and blow him.

You’re Making it Hard For Me to Hate You Favre

October 6th, 2009

all-day

The Vikings are 4 – 0 and a top three team in the NFC (Saints & Giants).  Adrian Peterson is a freak of nature and gives me a semi when he runs the ball.  The defense is sick with few holes that seem apparent after four games.  Brett Favre, while it hurts to say, has played really well.  I am still skeptical about his long term effectiveness he is picking apart defenses, who have to account for All Day, like it was college.  I’m still waiting for the hammer to drop after six or so games, as happened the past few years with him, but right now I… ugh… am happy he is on my team.

I will now rub my eyes with soap.
