For much of Thursday, it seemed that Target's decision to open on Thanksgiving would be a bust.
In Boulder there were no tents. No lines. Not one person, until around 7:30 p.m. when a lonely pair walked up to the door.
But by 8:45 p.m., the line stretched to Walnut Street, swelling to some 400 people by 9 p.m. when the store opened.
Black Friday is officially Black Thursday.
Sears, Toys "R" Us and Walmart also were scheduled to start their Black Friday sales on Thanksgiving this year. FlatIron Crossing mall in Broomfield and Sports Authority were scheduled to open at 12 a.m. Friday.
The National Retail Federation survey forecasted up to 147 million people plan to shop Black Friday weekend, spending $586.1 billion, a 4.1 percent increase from last year.
The holiday season historically accounts for 20 percent of retailers' annual sales, and Target appeared to be on its way to a successful Thanksgiving weekend as shoppers chatted excitedly about deals on Blu-Ray DVDs, $279 HDTVs, $49 Nooks and $199 Xboxes.
Target spokesman Shawn Jones said the crowd seemed bigger than the last few years, possibly because shoppers had a chance to get deals without losing any sleep.
That was the philosophy of 62-year-old Randy Davis and his sister Sharon Hair, 65, who arrived a little before 8:30 p.m.
"I'm not going to stay up all night," Davis said.
Hair chimed in: "I'd much rather get in line at night than early in the morning."
A group of women at the front of the line said they didn't mind shopping encroaching on their Thanksgiving time, but said they felt bad for employees who had to spend the holiday at work instead of at home.
Kelly Beveridge, 47, said she'd prefer a more traditional Black Friday with stores opening in the wee hours of Friday morning.
"Those are the true people that come out," she said.
Beveridge and her friends planned to rush in and out of Target, hit up Walmart and the FlatIron Crossing mall and then get a little rest before waking up for more Friday.
At Boulder's Best Buy, the line wrapped around the side of the building as customers waited for the store's midnight opening.
Esteban Rayos, a 16-year-old Boulder High student, arrived at 7 a.m. Thursday, and was surprised to find no one waiting in line.
"I thought people were going to be camping, but I guess not," Rayos said.
In Longmont, 16-year-old Christian Mucha pitched his tent outside Best Buy at 10 p.m. Monday for a flat-screen TV, three days before the store's midnight opening on Friday.
Rayos said he was 20th in line last year, which didn't cut it. He ended up missing out on a few deals, so this year, he came even earlier. Rayos planned to grab two laptops and an HDTV.
University of Colorado sophomore Gookjin Jeong waited a little farther down the line with his sister, who was visiting from Korea. He too planned to leave the store with an HDTV and two laptops.
Jeong, who arrived at 8 a.m. Thursday, said he'd never camped out before.
This year the deals were too good to pass up, he said. The $349.95 laptop deal comes with a carrying sleeve, mouse and flash drive, which enticed Jeong.
"I thought a lot more people would be here for the computers, but it's just them," Jeong said, motioning to the five or so people in line in front of him. "It's such a good deal."
Others waiting in line for the first time wanted to see what the Black Friday fuss was about. Radha Guragain, 26, said electronics are "so expensive" every other day of the year that she figured waiting in line would be worth it.
"I just wanted to experience it," she said.

Jamaal Charles, Tamba Hali, Derrick Johnson, Eric Berry, and Dustin Colquitt.
I am most surprised about Eric Berry, but he has stepped itup the last half of the season. Kinda surprised about Hali over Houston, since I think Houston had more sacks, but I wouldnt be surprised if Houston is an alternate.
It is sad that we have more PLAYERS in the probowl than WINS. I think that says enough about the coaching staff that Hunt should make the right decision on Monday morning. Too bad I will be camping and wont get to hear the news!

TRAINING: No day is ever typical in training for this fight. Never have I ever had typical training regimens and I guess I just can't start now. I do spar numerous times a week and practice jiu-jitsu throughout the week as well. Those are the biggest consistencies.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I was in college on a wrestling scholarship, and it just wasn't working out for me, I wanted to try other things and that led me right to this.
What ranks and titles have you held? TUF 12 winner
Do you have any heroes? Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Sugar Ray Robinson, all previous warriors before me who became masters of their craft.
What is your favorite technique? I don't really have one yet. I'm still working on mastering a few.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It means the world to me. It's exactly why I started in this sport. It's the epitome of all I've been working for and it's where I want to be.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I was working on getting a degree in mass communication. I have about a year and a half left, which I assure you I will finish.
What was your job before you started fighting? Everything and Everything. You name it, I've probably done it. From working at a pizza joint, to washing windows, to laying brick. None of them enjoyable.

Everyone loves a snow day.
Everyone loves a snow day.
But after the kids are home 6 days in a row with no break, I don't think my home was the only one where scenes from "The Shining" were being replayed – with far fewer obscenities, I promise.
It was maddening to try to get thoughts together with so many updates coming in with weather-related watches, warnings and closures that I had to publish on our websites. Maybe… just maybe… I started typing this column and all I could get out was that "All work and no play makes Kent a dull boy."
Not really. But I was glad that I don't own an ax or have a shrubbery maze in the back yard. That helped.
I wasn't even here for Snowpocalypse 1. I sped away Wednesday morning to a corporate meeting in Kansas City. I outran the snow and got to a dry KC metro area. Of course, during the first minutes of the meeting, we all looked out the window and saw snowflakes the size of silver dollars falling from the sky and stacking up quickly.
My return trip Friday night was postponed to Saturday morning.
But as soon as I started being happy that the snow was over, the forecast turned again.
Snowpocalypse 2 is just now starting as I finish this column.
It is horrible for business. Not just for newspapers, but for all of our clients, as well. Please be understanding if your carrier struggles to get a paper to you. They will try. We will make it up to you if they fail.
It is also hard on city crews who go to work as soon as it starts and keep going until the roads are passable and the power is on. No one appreciates how hard these people work to keep us safe and limit the impact of the storm.
A thank you note isn't a bad idea for people who do an otherwise thankless job.
It is also horrible for the election set for Tuesday. Turnout wasn't going to be huge anyway. This will be a limiting factor.
Please contact your favorite candidate. Most will have made arrangements to give rides to voters when needed.
Even schools that have the ability to close for student and employee safety didn't want to endure an unscheduled week-long break a couple of weeks before a scheduled week-long break. But I never get upset when schools close.
I used to make the same jokes about canceling school early. I used to side with parents who endure the inconvenience trying to find something to do with their kids when school is closed but their jobs are not.
But one wintry morning in Chickasha, Okla., just a little freezing rain that was expected to melt away later claimed the life of a 16-year-old sophomore whose car rolled down an overpass.
Avoiding the chance of reporting on that kind of story again has made me a proponent of using the snow days.
I feel bad. This weather is probably all my fault.
The last back-to-back snowstorms in this area came when I was in Ethiopia in January of 2011. In June when we went back, the Gazette air conditioner stopped working and temperatures in the building rose above 100 degrees. Needless to say, my employees don't like for me to leave.
All we can do is make the best decisions possible and keep ourselves and our friends and families safe during these tough times.
Now you know why I prefer 100-degree days to snow days. I have never been unable to drive or work because it was too hot.
But these snowstorms are a nightmare. I'm counting the minutes until the end of winter.
Make the best of it and stay safe. I hope you got one of the last gallons of milk and loaves of bread yesterday.
If not, the roads will be clear in a day or so and maybe then we can all get back to normal.

Grand Isle Shipyard denies connection with recruiting company.
Immigrant workers' entry into this country is overseen by two countries and multiple federal agencies, but a group from the Philippines went mostly unnoticed until three of them died, advocates said.
An oil platform owned by Houston-based Black Elk Energy exploded Nov. 16, killing three Filipino workers and injuring three others.
The explosion brought renewed attention to the treatment of Filipino workers by Grand Isle Shipyard, the Galliano-based company that provided the workers.
Hans Cacdac, the head of the Philippines Overseas Employment Administration, explained the process of bringing workers to Louisiana.
A licensed Filipino recruiter first links up with an overseas company. The two must get accreditation and register in the Philippines.
Once approved, and with contracts signed, the workers go to the U.S. Embassy for a visa.
The work contract signed by the former workers who filed suit is with DNR Offshore and Crewing Services or D&R Resources, both of which have links to Grand Isle Shipyard executives.
Cacdac said rules prohibit Grand Isle Shipyard from serving as its own recruiting company.
"That is something we will look into," Cacdac said.
Grand Isle Shipyard attorney David Korn denied any affiliation between his client and the recruiting companies, but Secretary of State records link them.
Randolf Malagapo and Danilo Dayao, both of the Philippines, and Bryan Pregeant, Grand Isle Shipyard's vice president, created Louisiana-based D&R Resources Inc. in July 2006, records show.
The company used the same address — 18838 La. 3235, Galliano — as Grand Isle Shipyard. Six months later the company's name changed to D&R Offshore Inc. It dissolved in September 2008.
The three men are also behind other companies with similar names. D&R Resources was created in January 2007, the same day Malagapo and Pregeant's other company changed its name.
Records show D&R Resources is an active business and has had three directors: Malagapo, Dayao and Cutiepie Nilfil R. Peralta. Its business address is a Golden Meadow house owned by Pregeant and occupied by Malagapo.
Contacted there in December, Malagapo declined an interview request.
"I'm not supposed to talk to you about it because this is already in the court," he said. "So we'll just leave it to the court."
He also repeatedly denied a link between Grand Isle Shipyard and D&R Resources.
But Malagapo's signature is on Grand Isle Shipyard work certifications. His name is included on Grand Isle Shipyard letterhead as the company's treasurer and executive manager. And his email address is tied to Grand Isle Shipyard's website.
Documents show Grand Isle Shipyard executives are also behind Thunder Enterprises, another company that helped bring Filipino workers to Louisiana under a specialized visa. The paperwork notes that D&R Resources Inc., is a 50/50 joint venture between Malagapo and Dayao and Thunder Enterprises.
Thunder Enterprises is a Louisiana corporation established in 1996. Its directors are Mark Pregeant, the CEO of Grand Isle, and Bryan and Brad Pregeant, its vice presidents.
The immigration paperwork states that Thunder Enterprises invested $200,000 in D&R Resources Inc. in the form of two $100,000 promissory notes secured by Malagapo's and Dayao's real estate holdings in the Philippines.
Under this set-up, the companies can bring Filipino laborers here under a specialized E-2 investor visa, which allows workers to stay longer. It's also renewed more easily.
The E-2 visa is for people coming to this country to develop and direct a significant business interest. It does not apply to ordinary skilled or unskilled workers, according to the U.S. State Department.
Several workers had E-2 visas, but said they weren't sure what the terms meant.
Asked if he had invested in any recruiting company, Ferdinand Garcia said, "No, they just want us to pretend, I think, to be an investor."
Yet another company, DNR Offshore and Crewing Services, employed the workers who died in the platform explosion.
Created in 2008, DNR Offshore and Crewing Services is based in the Philippines and registered with the Philippines Overseas Employment Administration.
Records show Peralta, the same man behind D&R Resources, is the head of DNR Offshore and Crewing Services. More than a dozen Filipino workers said the company's name includes initials of the first names of the three men behind it – Danilo Dayao, Nilfil Peralta and Randolf Malagapo.
Cacdac said his office doesn't have any complaints on file against DNR Offshore and Crewing Services, and "we are still trying to see if whether there are criminal investigations going on the American side."
No one from the U.S. government has contacted him, he said.
Ferdinand Garcia said he called the Philippines Overseas Employment Administration years ago to complain.
"I used to talk to them back in 2010. December of 2010," he said. "I told them about the unsafe acts of (Grand Isle Shipyard) and the things that they were doing to us."
Garcia said he was told to take his complaints to the recruitment company who hired him.
Cacdac can recommend the Philippine government open a criminal or civil investigation. But his office receives more than 4,500 complaints a year and just 16 investigators.
And, Cacdac says, his office isn't solely responsible.
"Once that worker is in the U.S., then obviously, that worker is under the jurisdiction of U.S. law and the policy," he said. "At that point, it is the receiving country, in this case the United States, that now handles the welfare and working conditions, etc, of that migrant worker."
The U.S. Embassy in Manila is the one that would review the work contracts, immigration paperwork, and applications of the laborers, Cacdac said.
The embassy declined to address this case specifically.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not say whether it is investigating Grand Isle Shipyard.
The civil suit is pending and could take years to resolve.
If you have information about Grand Isle Shipyard or its immigrant workers, contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

There is something to be said for ambition. The sort of unabashed, no holds barred, balls to the wall energy that makes anything seem like a good idea. Though you'll cock your head at the results of this kind of caution-to-the-wind bravado, the all-inclusive ''sure, why not?'' attitude, you can't help but crack a smile for the purveyors of this spirit: the first grader who stuffs his class diorama with every figurine and pipe cleaner machination he can muster, the bird who lines its nest with candy wrappers and Fedex receipts, or the people who made the Mortal Instruments movie. They, quite possibly, are the mightiest knights of them all.
You don't have to wait too long for the crazy to kick up in The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. We open on the most spacious apartment in the history of Brooklyn, where young Lily Collins is beginning to see mysterious symbols popping up everywhere, only the first sign of the fantastical journey set to take form. Mother Lena Headey, aided by her platonic friend Aidan Turner, plays the Dursley card and takes effort to deter any exploration of the ominous elements to befall her daughter. But as with every spunky mystic around her age, Collins cannot be restrained. She follows her heart and embarks on a quest, aided by her platonic friend Robert Sheehan, through every single conceivable element of modern fantasy.
The Harry Potter similarities continue when Collins is ushered into a demonic otherworld via New York City's equivalent of a murky train platform (an ecstasy-laden dance club), guided by New York City's equivalent of a haggard woodland giant (a perpetually shirtless goth ghost, played by Jamie Campbell Bower). Working her way up from glowing-eyed club druggers and pieces of living jewelry to demons, werewolves, witches, vampires, and interdimensional portals - tossed in one by one as we gradually abandon all devotion to any margins of logic - Collins engages in an adventure that seems entirely open to all possibilities. Or at least all possibilities that have proven vigilant at the box office in the past four years.
And as she engages, so do we. Not exactly in the way you engage with Harry Potter... more in the way you engage with the Harry Potter ride at Islands of Adventure. You'll embrace the likable and talented Collins just enough to forge the sort of relationship you want with a fantasy heroine. You'll find yourself rooting one way or the other in the love triangle between her, the Shirtless Shadowhunter (Campbell Bower), and her lovestruck pal Simon (Sheehan). You won't have to work too hard to understand most of the mystical facets tossed your way: you know the rules of vampires (no sunlight), of werewolves (they're dudes sometimes), of demons (they're bad). And when it does get confusing, like when teleportation bubbles and portal beams from the afterlife and curses and tarot cards and dreadlocks are tossed into the equation, you have the luxury of abandoning the puzzle. You're not asked to understand anything, just to accept it all.
Accept that all this madness can, does, and should occur within the malleable reality occupied by Collins and her ghastly friends. When it is revealed that classical musicians had a hand in these supernatural forays, accept it. When you're taken from wizards' palaces to Willy Wonkian wonderlands to the destitute streets of a haunted Manhattan post 3 AM, accept it. When genealogical revelations tie everything together in a bow so strange as to put the peculiarity of bat invasions, corpse armies, glowing hieroglyph tattoos, and memory erasing club promoters, accept it. If you can do all that, you'll find a comical thrill ride in this two hours of steadily accelerating madness, this Mulligan Stew of YA fiction. But if you're too hung up on logic, rules, world building, or any semblance of pacing, stick with Potter - Mortal Instruments is for the most adamant ''sure, why not?''-

Schools & Colleges
The University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus offers online courses (and ultimately full degrees) outside the confines of the classroom (and the rigid schedule), allowing you greater flexibility to balance work, school, home, and travel.
Students who have taken online courses provide the insight that their online courses provide a better way to learn than traditional courses:
1.) Flexibility: You can "attend" a course at any time, from anywhere. Among other things, this means you can attend classes regardless of your work schedule, you can spend quality time with your family, and if you travel (for business or pleasure) you can attend class from anywhere in the world that has internet access. 2.) Learning: Online learning enables you to choose how you prefer to be taught. Everyone has their own way of learning that works best for them. Some learn visually, while others do better when they "learn by doing."3.) Communication: Online education actually lends itself to more communication. You and your peers are freed from the confines of the classroom, which means if you tend to think of questions after class or debate whether you want to ask a question in front of the whole class, you can now contact your instructor and your peers with confidence. And you'll actually find there is more in-depth and honest discussions in the anonymity of the electronic forums provided.4.) Confidence: Online courses help foster responsibility and a sense of accomplishment as you take the reins on your education.5.) Individualized: Through online courses, you'll be able to learn concepts and theories in your own way. Whether you're a visual learner and need to read the information, or whether you're an auditory learner and prefer to listen to it, you decide. Online courses also provide an opportunity to learn at your own pace… and take notes at your own pace as well – you can always rewind an important point.6.) Networking Opportunities: You can easily contact faculty, fellow students, and graduates of your program allowing for limitless network opportunities.7.) Response: Professors often are more engaged and responsive online because this is a relatively new medium for them too.
Among the other benefits of taking your course online, you can also do the following 'typical' course related tasks all online as well:

Knuckling under in Boston
So what did we learn in last night's 2-1 loss to the Boston Chowderheads? We learned that when a shitty shitballing shitbird throws shitty shitballs all night long, the Jays may be in for a shitty night of shitty pop ups to the infield. By the end of the game last night, we felt like it was 1987 and we were watching Frank Tanana toss junk around, frustrating us to a point that leaves emotional scars for decades afterwards.
Although to be perfectly reasonable about this, it is still May, and there's still three-quarters of the season to go.
Breakin' it down: The Dopeness
After a shakey first two frames, Brian Tallet was nails for the next four innings, locking it down and giving the Jays the chance to work their way back into the game. Tallet went six, struck out 5 and walked two, likely keeping himself in the rotation for another two starts at the very least. Welcome back to the Summer of Tallet...
We're not sure of Cito is a genius for playing Kevin Millar last night, or if Millar is a savant for putting pretty much the only good swing on a Wakefield pitch. Let's just call them both awesome and move on...
The Beej looked alright, even with seemingly diminished velocity last night. We never saw him throw anything over 88 MPH, but his location was mostly spot on, and he worked at bats well. He looks a lot more composed on the mound, and doesn't seem to be rushing his delivery, which likely makes all the difference...
Breakin' it down: The Wackness
We're not entirely sure how Alex Rios got thrown out trying to steal on a floating knuckleball that the catcher double-clutched on, but it happened. Perhaps the Blissfully Oblivious Gazelle forgot halfway between bases that there was some urgency involved with making his way to second...
We hate to dump on Adam Lind's defense, because we can see the guy is really trying to improve, but his throw way up the line to no one in particular in the second inning was quite the brain cramp. Let's hope that Cito or Brian Butterfield can work they mystical magic on him before we get to Atlanta...
It's easy to pick on Vernon Wells' and his propensity for popping out (twice last night, along with a lazy fly and reaching on an error), but the whole team seemed to want to get under Wakefield's floaters last night. Six pop ups and seven mostly lazy flyballs later, the Jays did their bit to keep the basepaths neatly manicured and the bases pristinely white.
Breakin' it down: The Media Section
Ok, first off: What the fuck was up with TSN2 using the NESN feed? All of this scrapping over carriage on the Rogers cable system, and the CTVgm folks can't even see to it that a Canadian crew is employed to broadcast the game? How was this different than Rogers just giving the free MLB Extra Innings Preview? (Our guess is that TSN2 didn't have an HD production truck at its disposal, given TSN's hockey duties, so they decided to take the easier simulcasting route. Actually, we're pretty sure that "Take the Easier Simulcasting Route" will be the title of Ivan Fecan's forthcoming autobiography...
We were actually happy to watch the NESN broadcast, which probably has the best production quality of any local MLB broadcast. However, spending close to three hours listening to Dennis Eckersley's ridiculous meanderings just about drove us batty. Really, can we have another five minute discussion of "sneaky cheese"? It made us appreciate how good Pat Tabler has become over the past decade in the Jays' booth. Too bad we can't pair Tabby with NESN's excellent playcaller Don Orsillo...
Next Up
The lanky southpaw rookie versus the tubby washed up righty: Brett Cecil (2-0, 1.80 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, 15 Ks / 4 BBs) versus Brad Penny (3-1, 6.69 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, 20 Ks, 16 BBs).

For the record, I was one of the idiots advocating for J.P. to sign the tubby washed up righty. Hey, shit was bleak back in the winter. I believe I was all for signing Carl Pavano too.
I hang my head in shame.
Here's hoping the kids can help us win the next two.
And the dumping on Vernon Wells will be strong today. Bastards.

I liked Eck, but he did hit a lot of the same notes all night.
I think the Jays will feast on Penny tonight.

Eck made Darrin Fletcher sound like Vin Scully. I wasn't impressed. But Don O, he completes me.

I never thought I'd say this, but I miss Rod Black. I don't know if I can take 2 more games of Eck's social commentary.

- The Ack said...
Ack says Eck was fucking awful - do some research, man.
off the top of my head....
Brian Butterfield is not Brad Arnsberg.
Shawn Camp is not Jesse Carlson.
Robert Ray is the name of the other "kid" doing a nice job in the rotation.
Gene Tenance and Cito do have a history together from before this season.
Yes, Jason Frasor can really hit 94 on the gun.
- May 20, 2009 at 10:32 AM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Funny about Frasor hitting 94, and the unhittable overpowering Papeldouche hitting 95.
It seems like either one of those dudes is getting overlooked, or one of them is getting overhyped. Likely, both.
(Although velocity isn't everything.)

- The Ack said...
^^ and of course by Gene "Tenance" I meant Gene Tenace. Unobservant typo douchebag.
See what happens to me when the Jays drop a close one to the Sox? With Papelfuck closing it? CHRIST.
- May 20, 2009 at 10:45 AM
Ack: You missed out on Lind really carving out a spot for himself as the everyday left-fielder.
Turning on the TV to watch a Jay's game and getting Dennis Eckersley announcing is worse than walking into your parents' bedroom when they're in their full leather B&D gear. Eck was my most hated player in 1992, when I was younger and much more angry.
Watching a knuckleballer throw makes it worse. After all that emotional scarring I was put through last night, you go and throw Frank (Shitty, shitballing, shithead) Tanana in the mix? Damn, that was cruel.

- The Ack said...
Voodoo, yeah, forgot that gem about how Snider is apparently the DH - just so many to choose from. Although, if Snider is on his way down soon, we might just see more of Young Adam in left....
My hated for Eckersley peaked immediately after, as Jack Morris called it, his little-league "bang-bang" show up move in the '92 ALCS (top of the 8th, Game 4). Of course, Robbie Alomar taking him deep (top of the 9th) to erase the deficit eased the rage somewhat. That moment was pure awesome, and in my mind, right up there with Carter's blast in '93.

NESN just has the worst broadcast crews ever, their Bruins announcers both have mass-hole accents. And criticize the refs even when the replay shows how flagrant of a penalty the Bruins just committed.
I can only imagine what the Sox guys were like.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:23 AM
- Joanna said...
re. Frasor "He's little!!! That was sneaky cheese!" frasor has always been able to hum.
And calling Doc the best pitcher in baseball and then apologizing for it. Dennis, never apologize for the truth.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:37 AM
Beej looked a bit better but let's not forget that he would have given up a run if Chavez didn't nail Ellsbury at 3rd.
The announcers were so awful last night I had to mute the sound. And I NEVER mute the sound.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:37 AM
Guys, please fix your Mike Wilner link.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:38 AM
- S'93 said...
Reason #8910 why Major League Baseball not having archived video on YouTube drives me crazy:
We should all be able to watch multiple angles of Alomar's homer in the '92 ALCS this morning.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:41 AM
Too bad the Remdawg is absent from NESN!
- May 20, 2009 at 11:42 AM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Wilner link is fixed. For now. It seems like we're fixing it every few weeks.
Re: Beej's phantom run
Ellsbury doesn't score from second on Pedroia's single, and he didn't make it to third because B.J. Ryan is awesome and got the ball to Chavez quickly.
End of story.
- May 20, 2009 at 11:57 AM
- eyebleaf said...
Chavez's gun kind of factored into the equation. Chavez is a likable backup catcher. Rotund and jolly.
I was listening on the radio. I'm kind of sad I missed Eck.
And I'm with S'93. I'd love to watch Alomar's home run, daily. And it's a shame Scott Rolen's amazing play from Monday isn't on the internetz. Like, fuck.

- Ian H. said...
Can we start lobbying to replace Eck with The Ack? I think it would make for a much more enjoyable baseball experience.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:08 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Not sure that the Ack could grow the mullet to fill in for Eck.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:17 PM
I think part of the reason why Eck was such a dick last night was because he was having worst flashbacks then a Vietnam Vet of 1992 all over again. Seeing Cito in the opposing dugout only made it worse for the fucker.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:38 PM
Getting a bad feeling about this series. Just read that Youkilis is back in the Sox's lineup tonight.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:43 PM
All the errors and lack of preparedness on Eck's part were pretty bad, I'll admit. However I did find him to be kind of affable. I relly didn't mind him overall. If you can imagine him doing commentary for the Jays and actually knowing the difference between Shawn Camp and Jesse Carlson he probably would be better than any of our current options.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:44 PM
- Torgen said...
Youkilis doesn't erase a 5 run difference in starters' ERA.
- May 20, 2009 at 12:46 PM
I'm pretty sure I saw "Gene Tenace - Pitching Coach" flash up on the screen. It was as though Eck was putting up the text too.
Anyway, a win will give us more exciting things to chat about ... this feels more like a "dumb ... slow ... knuckleball loss" kind of discussion. The kind I hope to never have again -- not that I hang any of that on the brilliant Tao.

Why don't more mother fuckers throw knuckleballs?
- May 20, 2009 at 12:53 PM
One down, two more to go. By Sunday, we'll be in first again and you guys can share the basement with the Os. All I heard about was the great Jays offense. Those two games against the Yankes they lost, they scored next to nothing. And yesterday you couldn't even hit a shitball pitcher. the Jays aren't for real and you guys are pipedreaming. Maybe some of you can help us raise the World Series flag next year?
- May 20, 2009 at 12:58 PM
The reason more motherfuckers don't throw the knuckleball is that it's almost impossible to throw consistently. If a pitcher is rolling (rolls off a finger or the thumb) one out of every ten he'll end up with an ERA in the twenties or thirties.
I will defer any other comments to the unparralelled intelligence of the poster above me.
- May 20, 2009 at 1:08 PM
You know those games the Jays lost? They didn't score as many runs as the other team. But in the other games that they won, they scored more runs than the other team. What a crazy game this baseball.
- May 20, 2009 at 1:21 PM
Voodoo Matt, I am intelligent I root for a good team. You hosers are being played by Ricciardi and the attendant hype. You really think you can take a game from us, when the Yankees couldn't? You can talk smack when you've beaten an AL East team that is not called the Os. So far, you have dead weight like Wells and Rios as your 3 and 4 hitters? How the fuck can you win with underachievers like that? You have an average team with a great pitcher,very good bullpen,and two shitty 3 and 4 hitters. God luck in staying out of the basement,boys.
- May 20, 2009 at 1:28 PM
- eyebleaf said...
@ The Nation: Kiss my ass. You douchebags can help us raise our pennants.
Speaking of great offense and pipedreaming, how about that Ortiz guy?
- May 20, 2009 at 1:41 PM
- jroberts said...
The Twins have RA Dickey, a decent reliever who throws a "hard" knuckleball. Fun to watch, but infuriating to listen to the local announcers retread the same crap every time he comes into a game--can't trust the knuckleball in a big game situation, easy to steal off of, can't trust him to come in with guys on base, etc. Jesus Christ, he's a pitcher--can't you just analyze him like any other reliever by looking at baserunners and runs given up and shut up about the potential passed balls?
- May 20, 2009 at 1:43 PM
I realize Kevin Millar has a reputation for doing these sort of things, but did anyone else hear about him visiting the Red Sox clubhouse yesterday before the game to talk to Ortiz in order to help help him break out of his slump??
- May 20, 2009 at 1:49 PM
And because I forgot to include it with my comment above: WTF. Did he also cry in the Jays dugout after hitting that homerun?
- May 20, 2009 at 1:50 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
The Jays' approach on the knuckler was totally wrong last night.
"They" (yeah, those fuckers) say that the best way to try to hit a knuckle ball is to just focus on trying to hit it directly back through the box to the pitcher. The Jays were trying to tee off on it and with the exception of Millar, they never really squared one up last night.
All this knuckleball talk has us thinking: Who was the greatest knuckleballer in Jays history? Candiotti or Niekro?
- May 20, 2009 at 2:01 PM
- eyebleaf said...
- May 20, 2009 at 2:33 PM
On why Francona believes Ortiz will get hot:
Francona: "Because players do. Even not-so-great players get hot. And David's been an elite player . . . he's not going to go all season hitting .207 with no home runs. When he gets hot, where's it take him? Well, let's find out. I want to live through that before we get too crazy here."
- May 20, 2009 at 2:39 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Oh come on...of course it is Niekro!
(Or maybe we're just being a contrarian! Like Toth!)
- May 20, 2009 at 2:40 PM
- Darren Priest said...
Did Craig Grebek ever get hot?
- May 20, 2009 at 4:32 PM
- Tao of Stieb said...
Craig Grebek probably got hot when he accompanied Frodo Baggins up the side of the volcano with that ring in the Lord of the Rings.
- May 20, 2009 at 4:40 PM
- Joanna said...
tao, you got yourself a red sox troll!!! who talks shit about clean up hitters like Ortiz isn't in their line up!!!!!
- May 20, 2009 at 6:32 PM
- eyebleaf said...
I imagine more members of the fine Red Sox Nation will be dropping in tomorrow...
- May 20, 2009 at 9:47 PM
Whoever said this would be a bellwether series may be right, as it seems obvious that the Jays cannot roll with the big boys in the AL East.
- May 20, 2009 at 10:13 PM
yeah, losing the first two games in an 18 game season series is crippling
- May 20, 2009 at 11:06 PM
- Torgen said...
It seems obvious that Boston cannot roll with the big boys in the AL West like Seattle and Anaheim and Oakland.

The ideal conditions may have helped two girls set new school records in their events. Senior Aryn Eckstrom set a new school record in the 1600 meter run. Sophomore Katy Hedlund set a new school record in the high jump.
Last Friday afternoon was a near perfect day for a track meet and it showed in the efforts by the Saints tracksters. That was seconded by Saints Head Track Coach Scott Allen, "Beautiful night for a track meet. We ran some good times and had some good performances in field events."
The ideal conditions may have helped two girls set new school records in their events. Senior Aryn Eckstrom set a new school record in the 1600 meter run. Sophomore Katy Hedlund set a new school record in the high jump.
The girls finished second in the five team field just two points out of a tie for first with Martin County West. MCW scored 150 and the Saints scored 148.
The Boys finished third. GHEC-Madelia, Truman, ML (one team) finished first with 163, Maple River was second with 131 and the Saints had 117 points.
Coach Allen said, "It was a fun meet in that seniors got to pick what they wanted to run and some distance kids ran sprints and sprinters ran distance."
No doubt having the most fun were the new SJA school record holders. Hedlund set her record first. Over a series of jumps she tied her personal best, then she set a new personal best.
She was now the only competitor left jumping. Gene Hildebrandt was supervising the event and he asked Katy if she wanted to go for the school record. Katy said she'd go for the tie, which was 5'3" and held by Brianna Brandts.
But 'somehow' Coach Hildebrandt set the bar 1/4 of an inch higher than 5'3". Katy cleared it and though she thought she tied the record, she owned it outright at 5'3 1/4". She's got more than two full years of jumping to raise the bar on her school record.
Aryn's record was one that's stood for 29 years. She was gritting her teeth coming down the stretch because she must have sensed this was her moment to put her name in the record books. She crossed the finish line at 5:21.8.
Emily Hurley continues to have a great spring finishing first in the discus and tying for first in the shot put. "Emily continues to be a top point getter in the throws," said Coach Allen.
Devon Flohrs won the triple jump with a leap of 33'3". Allen said, "Devon is getting back to good triple jump distances."
Aubrey Eckstrom won the 400 meter dash. Wheeling around the final curve and down the home stretch Aubrey was in a tie with the Saints Allison Brandts who finished third. Both girls are freshman and have a lot of running ahead of them.
On the boys side, the Saints Johnathan Surber picked up another career win in the 3200 meter run with a time of 10:02.2.
Tyler Hanson tied in the pole vault with a leap of 11'6".
Freshman Noah Pinke won the boys 800 meter run with a time of 2:08. "Noah ran a great 800 in a come from behind win," his coach said.
The Saints 4x100 team of Logan Sykes, Isaac Carreon, Johnathan Surber and Zuriel Chacon finished first in that event.

Going Bonko
On Sunday, I had an interesting experience with one of my favorite coffees from the past several months, the natural-processed Ethiopia Wondo Bonko Sidamo. This coffee, whose greens came from PT's in Kansas, has that lush bouquet of distinctive fruited notes, both on the tongue and in the nose. I had roasted a batch of this to just a shade past first crack on Saturday afternoon, making it very young in the post-roast sense. I brewed up a batch in the morning using the V60, then did the same in the afternoon.

Phillies Phlashback Phridays: Norm Charlton
Yet another delve into yesteryear, this time leading us to Norm "Knothead" Charlton. Knothead was a term of endearment bestowed upon Norm by my father for his propensity to take line drives off of his forehead. Although he only pitched half the '95 season in Philly with a nasty 7.36 ERA, he left an impression on my father and I, by leaving an impression of a baseball on his dome. Speaking of nasty, he was a member of the Nasty Boys of Cincinnati in the early 90's, with Rob Dibble and Randy Myers. Too bad he didn't save any of that filthy pitching repertoire for his Phils days.
*Legend & Lore continued- I don't give a hairy monkey's nipple if Fabio "Model Dictator" Castro is pitching when 89 runs up or down, 17.1 scoreless innings to start his Phillies tenure gives him legend status in my book. It's time Manuel gave him the opportunity to pitch in a pressure situation.
*Memo- Cole Hamels was left out of the loop in the clubhouse by not receiving the note stating that Phillies pitchers are no longer pitching ghastly. (I feel like Simon Cowell saying that word).
*Bounce Back- the Phillies need to forget about that unsightly loss and move on.
"Nasty, nasty boys. Don't mean a thing. Oh you nasty boys!"
*Why is it that Janet always seems to be needing a hand?

BloodStripes- as per your request, I have added the Yuengling Premium logo to today's post on our More Hardball blog.
I hate the fact that we're playing the Mets this weekend. They're the one team in the NL that scares me.
- August 25, 2006 5:46 AM
- GM-Carson said...
Update- that damn Ryan Franklin now has 4 wins for the Reds in 9 appearances with a 3.50 ERA. Thankfully Cormier is sticking loyal with the Phils and sporting a 5.19 ERA and 2.08 WHIP...thanks Frenchy!!!
- August 25, 2006 6:37 AM
- BloodStripes said...
Yeah the mets at shea. Could be dangerous. But we gotta give the Phils some credit, last series we clubbed them and the pitching match-ups could favour us too. Although we took to their top 3 last time anyway. Bannister is young and has only just come back up, Perez is 2-10 with a 6.63 ERA and young Maine is up against the "wiley" Moyer.
Phils have won 4 straight series and are 15-8 thus far in august. They are still a threat, our chances are good.
Speaking of the Phlashbacks to the early 90's. The Phils are reviving the spirit of the 'Merry Krucksters'. Playing hard and never giving in. Against the mets and for the remainder of the season for that matter they need to do as Lenny Dykstra would say............"Whatever it takes Dude".
P.S that boxer is one helluva knothead.

the phils will take 2 out of 3 because they have something to play for. the mets have nothing to play for as they have already locked up the NL East. wolf, lieber, myers will give them a chance to win each game
- August 25, 2006 7:01 AM
- BloodStripes said...
Lets hope so Dane.
Gotta agree about the monkeys nipple.....i mean the Model Dictator. Sometimes we need some serious outs in a 2 or 3 run game and he should be given a chance for 1 or 2 of those outs if not an inning or 2.
I'm sure he warmed up the other night during Madson's save. It was 2 out 2 on after a single and walk, so he almost made a crucial moment. At least maybe, just maybe he is slowly earning the right. The best thing is his age. Very young and doing well. In my books he has a good future and he's ours!

3 of 4 in Chicago is a good start. If we can take 2 of 3 from the Mets, that would really be saying something.

Rich Dubee said that Hamels sliced his finger with a knife while cooking. That might explain why every pitch he threw was hit. We're also pretty worried about this mets series.

we have to sweep the mets or at least win the series. if not, it'll be detremental to the phils playoff chances.

ah yes, norm charlton. does anyone remember the first time he came into a game for the phillies? it was when we had a 6-4 lead against the st. louis cardinals at busch stadium, and good ol norm gave up a three run walk off double via the bat of their no-name 3rd baseman, scott cooper. it was then and there that i realized norm charlton was a waste of money. although i guess he did do better than jeff brantley.
anyone else remember that game? that was back when the phillies had a starting line up of:
i also think tony longmire hit a pitch hit home run somewhere in the game and toby borland pitched like shit.

Over on BeerLeaguer some posters feel that the Mets don't really care about this series because they have the NL East all but wrapped up. I beg to differ! I highly doubt the Mets are just going to roll over and play dead, I'm more inclined to agree with your analysis El Padrino.

No pic of the year for the monkeys nipple. Remove the hands on Janet and you might get close.

I can't remove the hands on the Janet picture, but maybe I can get Justin Timberlake to.
*2 hits to start the game...sweet!

Yeah that Timberlake/Janet story was even big Down Under. Great start, 2 run first. Lets see how Wolfman holds up.

G'day mate!
Sorry, I know that was so stereotypical of me, but stereotypes crack me up.
I had a British professor this summer and at the end of the course I said, "You didn't say Bloody Hell once". He said and you didn't say "fuck" once...love it!
- August 25, 2006 7:34 PM
- BloodStripes said...
LOL......don't be sorry, I say G'day mate all the time. Say it all you like. "Bloody hell"! I say that all the time too, especially if I'm upset with the kids. Its acceptable, better than saying fuck to them. Another good Aussie saying is. "No worries mate".
You can say them in regards to anything really. "Bloody hell, Wolfman is looking good tonight"..........yeah "no worries at all, we'll win this one".
How about ass. We say and spell "arse". Its seems alot harsher the aussie way. You guys have refined it to be half-polite. Haha
- August 25, 2006 7:46 PM
- BloodStripes said...
Oh Bloody hell.....back to back walks.......crikey!
- August 25, 2006 7:47 PM
- GM-Carson said...
Bloody hell I hope the Phils sweep this weekend! Of course I wish that everyday.
One of my favorite American ways of saying things is "C'mon" for come on...I love it, can be used in many situations. Like "c'mon already and get dinner of the table" or "are you really wearing bell-bottoms, c'mon"
- August 25, 2006 7:52 PM

Hey, we're the only two posting on here and on BeerLeaguer. Does that make us cool or losers?
- August 25, 2006 7:56 PM

LOL.......C'mon, its gotta be cool....haha
Big Man goes yard once again.Better get Schmidt to the ball games so he can congratulate Howard when he passes the franchise record.
- August 25, 2006 8:01 PM
- BloodStripes said...
Leiberthal just short. By they way......you got the bloody hell thing down pat already.
4-0.......looking good Phils!
- August 25, 2006 8:03 PM
- GM-Carson said...
I've heard rumors for years that Lieberthal comes up short in other departments too...
I really never expected a season this awesome from Howard. I didn't think he'd have this many homers and rbi's by season's end...still more than a month to go.
C'mon Wolf, don't pitch suck-ass...Bloody Hell Mate, they're hitting him.
- August 25, 2006 8:08 PM
- BloodStripes said...
Poor Leiby.....
Good defensive play by Howard in the 3rd. He's got it all. I got a road jersey the other week with Howard on the back. I'm feeling full of power now.
That talk about Mets not caring much about this series.....well I'm sure they do and I would prefer the Phils win against them playing at their best. Means we're good.
- August 25, 2006 8:25 PM
- GM-Carson said...
I only have one Phillies jersey- vintage 80's powder blue baby!
No name on the back...but I'm thinking of putting my own name with #77 (Bucknell football number) on it.
I want Ryan Howard to be MVP! Imagine going from Rookie of the Year, to Homerun Derby Champ, to MVP all in the matter of 2 seasons.
- August 25, 2006 8:30 PM
- BloodStripes said...
It would be incredible would'nt it! I want the Phils to keep a hold of him for his entire career. Would'nt it be great to see him continue to break Phils records and blossom into the greatest Phillie ever! I would love to see that.
You got a powder blue! Awesome! Last season I bought a Rollins home jersey and now I got the Howard road plus all my caps, books, pennants, t-shirts......its mad for an Aussie huh? Bloody hell....am I a loser?
No way!!! You gotta be a bit crazy to be Phils Phan right? I fit the bill!
- August 25, 2006 8:36 PM
- GM-Carson said...
sounds like you have more phillies stuff than me...i'm a cheap bastard though.
by the way, Mike Schmidt is the greatest Phillie ever, and best 3rd baseman ever...I love Howard but he has a long ways to go.
- August 25, 2006 8:41 PM
- GM-Carson said...
Dammit Wolf. I hate the Mets! This pisses me off even more because Reyes was out at 2nd and shouldn't have scored! I'm getting worried about this game. Victorino triples to lead off an inning and the Phils can't get him in...c'mon!
- August 25, 2006 8:44 PM
- GM-Carson said...
by the way, why the hell is lieberthal catching so much again? I've noticed Lieby is starting to not hit again but he's catching more...bring back coste!
- August 25, 2006 8:52 PM
- BloodStripes said...
Yeah, your right, Coste is sitting more. Maybe he will come in for Leiby tonight. He oughtta at least pinch hit.
- August 25, 2006 8:54 PM
- GM-Carson said...
Well bro, I'm out for the night. It's ice cream time at the Drama residence. The Phils better turn the offense back on and win this game. See ya early tomorrow morning...well morning here at least.
- August 25, 2006 9:07 PM
- BloodStripes said...
No worries bro.......talk soon.

- BloodStripes said...
You can't leave now......the Phillies need ya mate! Haha.
6 outs left Phils.
C'MON!!!! I want this win BAD!
Arthur is up for the 8th! That means a Madson 9th. Bloody hell! Another heart-stopper!
- August 25, 2006 9:34 PM
- BloodStripes said...
The best win Geary had this year was a 1 pitch ground ball out or something. Too easy! He's having a good year!
- August 25, 2006 9:42 PM
- BloodStripes said...
Great win for the Phightin' Phils!
All runs coming from the starters. Wolf good enough for the win. Geary, Rhodes and Madson(2nd save! He's done it all this year.) did a top job. Only 2 baserunners for their 4 innings.
Madson the star of the game interview on WPHT.....I really like Madson. Good work son!
- August 25, 2006 10:09 PM
- BloodStripes said...
About Mike Schmidt. I agree, he sure was the best ever Phillie and 3rd baseman. He is the reason I became a Phils fan in the 1st place. So thankyou Mike. And yeah, Howie certainly does have a long way to go, but what a talent!
- August 25, 2006 11:36 PM

With the score 2-1 Giants in the 8th, Ryan Franklin walks Finley, intentionally walked Alfonzo then gave up a 1st pitch double to pitcher Matt Morris. 4-1 Giants. Crowd went berserk. Beautiful. 9th inning, Morris closes it for CG win.
Padres lose, Phils level, back to 1 1/2 on reds.

We set a new record for this blog last night with comments...thank you to all involved. We're growing slowly but surely.
Glavine is going to be tough today. After getting news the his season and career might be over, I expect an inspired performance from him tonight. Hopefully the Phils bats are inspired to stick it to him!
- August 26, 2006 7:41 AM
- BloodStripes said...
O.K here we go. Aussie footy and the Phillies. The team I follow are called the Sydney Swans and have a similar history to those fightin' Phils. Thought you might like the song.
Just like the Phillies the Sydney Swans were born in late 1800's and were founding members of the league. They wear a Red and White uniform and have a futile history. They have won only 4 premiership flags since the league began over 100 years ago. After 72 years since their last flag in 1933 they won last year. YEAH! At last. Thought I would never see the day. Back in the early days they were called the Bloods, short for the blood stained angels. Us diehards still call them the Bloods today. That's another reason why I love the blood-striped Phillies!
So anyway, here is the team song. Only sung by the players after a win. Inserted is Phillies instead of Swans. I sing it after the Phils win.
Cheer cheer the Red and the White,
Honour the name by day and by night,
Lift that noble banner high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky,
Whether the odds be great or be small,
The Phillies will go in and win overall,
While our loyal sons are marching,
Onwards to victory!
Go the BLOODS!
- August 26, 2006 7:07 PM
- GM-Carson said...
At Bucknell, we used to sing a song after a win too...pretty lame, but here goes:
Ray Bucknell, Ray Bucknell,
Ray for the orange the blue,
Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray,
Ray for the oragne and the blue.
*bet you woulda never guess our unis were orange and blue huh?

I bought a few sample jars of loose mineral eyeshadows from www.glamourdolleyes.com and I am just enamored! They are so vibrant and very-well pigmented so one swipe gives you THIS amount of color. What I love about them? Is that you can order samples by the jar AND baggies, which is great because I hate samples in baggies, it's messy and you end up wasting product. Baggie samples are just $2.00 and jar samples are $3.50. I also love the range of colors she has as well as the types (such as matte and shimmer). The packaging itself is cute! She delivers them with care, wrapped in cute zebra print tissue paper AND there are FREE samples with ANY order! Not a lot of companies do that nowadays. I am so excited to do a look using these eye shadows soon!
I spoke to the owner, whose name is also Vanessa! And she was nice enough to give my readers a discount, so 15% off orders of $10 or more! Simply use the coupon/promo code "nessadoll" at checkout.
For shipping questions, CLICK HERE. She does ship both domestically AND internationally.
Swatches done dry without any primer underneath...

Hello everyone,ReplyDelete
This is a new year, am glad we made it. Most of us make New Year resolutions that we usually don't keep, but this yr, make sure you get urself closer to God. The world has nothing to offer but pains. Nowhere is safe, whether u are rich or poor. If you have a need trust God to see u thru, be marriage, children, job etc..God has not and will not forget u...but u need to come to Him.
The hospitals open their doors to sick pple who come to them, they don't come to u, u go to them...so learn to go to Jesus with ur issues, He is the waiting for u. Make up ur mind to receive Jesus, to make Him ur Lord, and to dedicate more time to God in prayer.
my blog is a Christian blog, I write short messages on it always to keep us going spiritually(spiritualNuggets)...pls follow me. www.thebanquethall.blogspot.com. God bless u all.
