Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

LunchTime Pregame Thread

Use this thread to talk about life and baseball (but not religion or politics) until Game Time.

Tonight Joe Saunders faces Adam Eaton and the Baltimore Orioles. Eaton was released by the Phillies in February, signed by the Orioles and recalled from AAA on April 12.

Weather: Partly cloudy. Game time temperature around 80

Read about our opponent at SBN's award-winning Orioles blog, Camden Chat, who are lamenting the tornado called the Rangers that just blew through Baltimore.

For choosing original Capn Crunch over Crunch Berries.

Gotta go with:

1. Cookie Crisp
2. Capn Crunch
Tie for 3. Cocoa Pebbles / Cocoa Puffs
4. Golden Grahms
5. Lucky Charms.

Honorable mention goes to Oh’s, which are pretty effin delicious.

Crunchberries suck.

Thank goodness someone has sense.

Frosted Mini Wheats is win! But then so is Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and that’s been completely ignored.

WIth that said, I like to mix it up. Even some Honey Nut Cheerios are good now and then, and anything with sweet crunchy clusters is always nice.

My 86-year-old grandpa broke his arm/shoulder and cracked a rib when he fell while BBQing the other day. Luckily he’s only in a sling, but damnit it makes me think that he’ll be leaving this world soon. Makes me sad.

BBQ Thread

What kind of BBQ do you use when grilling (or do you do old-skool BBQ)?

Me, I use a Weber Genesis Silver B. Gas grill. I want to get my hands on a classic kettle grill for charcoal.

Just looking at some numbers...

The only guys Hokie Joe will really need to avoid are…

Aubrey Huff- .500 w/ 12ABs (2004-08)
Melivn Mora- .462 w/ 13ABs (2004-08)
 
and maybe Luke Scott- .600 w/ 5ABs (2004-08) although doesn’t look like Scott is in the lineup today.

Anyone else getting hot on the Os?
