PrintIt is official. Tempe Arizona has a few new residents. Ervin Santana. Scott Kazmir. Jered Weaver. Joel Pineiro. Joe Saunders. Spring Training begins with a light workout tomorrow morning.
Today was spent getting equipment and physicals. To paraphrase Robert Duvall, "I love the smell of glove leather in the morning, it smells like... like victory."

It's the most wonderful time of the year...
Well, except for the regular season and the playoffs.
OK, I'm finally over losing Tex. Thanks Kendry.
And those rare times
I convince a woman when shes drunk enough to sleep with me.

Is there such a degree that remains still shy of toxic alcohol poisoning?

As long as it's not Mass Effect 2 without an HD TV
I don’t want them ruining their eyesight trying to read fuzzy text because Bioware made a lazy design decision.

What do you need a fancy suit for, Charlie, you ain't got no job to wear it to.

That wikipedia photo did look familiar.
But your resemblence to AMMO in that photo is surreal. I’m guessing you can ball a little better than him, though.

Dude! You hung out with Bukowski?!
That’s so freakin cool (though I no longer try to emulate his lifestyle….)
Dude,
I can’t believe you hung out with bukkake.

I'm guessing that picture
was taken in like ‘88? A few years before he died….
He would love the ribald side of HH, I’m guessing.
just read a 2005 N. Yorker review of latest B book, coincidentally
that don’t like his work—not complex enough….
Maybe, but it sure is fun
I really wish I could go to spring training...
To anyone who’s been there: How’s the experience? Any tips or pointers for 1st timers? What’s this rash on my back?
Thanks for any help,
Nick.

only asking b/c my buds and I are planning a trip for next year.

Spring training is awesome!
I’m heading out on March 23 and going to 7 games. The experience is great. Compared to Angel Stadium there is not a bad seat in the house. Good opportunity to meet players, all around good time.
I’ve been saving up vacation time for a year now. Can you tell I’m excited?

If you get there early enough...
You can even watch the morning workouts each day for free

This will be my fifth year in a row.
Highly recommend it, you will love it. I’ll be out again this year in mid March with the lucky Angels Beer Bong of course.
That isnt a rash.... we need to talk about your trips to Frisco.... take a seat.
I brought sexy back, but they only gave me store credit....
umm... Frisco trips? Body rashes?
Are you trying to imply something improper about one of our esteemed fellow posters here?

There is not a lot other pictures much gayer

Love it. Miss it.
My wife and I went 8 years in a row until last year (and I went a few times as a kid to Palm Springs). Last year, we couldn’t afford it, and now we have a newborn who’s not ready to travel. So, it might be a while until we get to go again. The atmosphere is so laid back. It’s easier to get foul balls. I’ve gotten like 4. It’s also easy to get autographs if you’re into that. My only beef is that it’s gotten way pricier, like as much as a lot of decent regular season seats.
Some tips: make sure you buy tickets to a game in the middle of the month. At the beginning of the month, there are still a zillion minor leaguers they are taking a look at. And in the last two or three games, the starting 25 really phone it in, or don’t even show up. Also, watch out for “split squad” games, unless you want to get stuck watching a bunch of scrubs.
Finally, keep hydrated and sunscreened. I’ve seen a bunch of people (mostly elderly) pass out from heat stroke. Although it’s usually very nice weather in March in Arizona, you could get unlucky and be stuck at a really hot, dry game.

Santana told Bill Plunkett that his elbow is feeling good.
So, fingers crossed.

So what's the latest with Shieldsy?
Santana marks his shoes? Why? Are people stealing shoes?
God needed a starter. RIP #34
In any communal environment, it's best to mark your trash
Did it in the military all the time. Keeps from getting your stuff mixed up and yes, stolen.
