Apparently Zito and Chavvy were on BDSSP last night? Why does no one tell me these things? **resents you all** Happily, there was a clip on their website. Download (here). It's about 8minutes, and while it doesn't seem to be the whole appearance, it looks to be a good chunk of it. Highlights: "the chavvy run," mentions of Huddy and Mulder (your question partly answered, Bri), and something that should amuse Jen - jokes on the contents of Z's locker ^_~
Chavvy's not too comfortable talking/joking about Z leaving, is he?
OOH. I totally recorded it! (Ah, the rewards of being too lazy to correct the vcr setting when you overprogram the O's game. Happy day.) Yeah, the clip isn't the whole appearance, the guys go on to play 'Know Your Teammate.' They fail at it, miserably, and hug. Hee.
MLB must have put a foot in people's asses, because both David and Haren finally had updates posted yesterday. Or maybe I have Jen-like powers and sometimes people do what I say. WHO KNOWS. Dan talks about the game on Sunday, and muses about Lost some more, and for serious, I would have a Haren icon, if it wouldn't jinx the hell out of him. I'm getting ready to head out to Richmond but I just had to point out:
Barry Zito and I sat next to each other on the plane back from our road trip and watched last week’s episode of Lost.
♥ Also, he talks some more about Barry and the example Barry sets and if you're not gonna re-sign him then at least plzdon'ttradehimbilly :(
Um.
**coughs** I may have inferred that last part. But seriously, I have so much love for this idea of Sensei!Zito, I can't even tell you. So the renewed trade whispers can please to be stopping now.
Also, Dan, stop making me feel bad for having abandoned Lost like a certain Chalupa Valley mutt was abandoned by his father. And please stop telling me things like your fiancee doesn't know how to use Tivo, because that makes me think mean things about her. The Lost crew apparently also includes Rich and Huston. Why am I not surprised?
David's blog continues to be pretty boring and I would not be surprised if his entries were in fact written by an intern in the Mets PR department. **yawns** I wish his entry had gone up while he was in San Diego, because aside from the passing reference to them having just lost 2 of 3 to the Braves, it sounds like his entry was written before yesterday's game. I would have been interested to see him address the really shitty day he had. I know he's been working on his defense, so three errors in a game against the Braves can't have been fun, and this series must have been upsetting, with all the hype about the Mets unseating the Braves this year. But he just blabs away about how the Mets have new swagger and expect to win every game. Laaaame.
But speaking of the Braves, I'm so happy Huddy finally had a good game. Also, doesn't the paperback version of Aces come out tomorrow? Complete with new 'one year later' forward? **bounces**
OH! And [Bad username or site: johnnybvo / @ livejournal.com] emailed me all:
"The thing about Moose is some days he gets killed..." - Some ESPN guy. Not has a bad day, can't find his rhythm, or struggling to find a pace..."GETS KILLED!" This analyst guy is the best.
And I died laughing of course. I emailed him back to ask if he remembered anything about who it was.
His name was Tino something, he talked really fast jumbling up his words a bit. Ring a bell?
AHAHAHAHAHA. Oh, Tino. Can you not be BRUTALLY HONEST about your ex-teammates? Thanks. Awww, though, at Tino talking all fast and jumbling his words. I'm sure he'll come into his own soon. He's only a couple weeks into this analyst thing.

I totally flipped over the Huddy and Mulder mentions. So no, he didn't talk to Mulder but, being Barry, he "sent him some good vibes". Maybe the BDSSP crew will put it in his head to talk to Mark... well, a girl can dream.
oooh and Barry going "we love each other" & him and Chavvy being all touchy!!
Barry Zito and I sat next to each other on the plane back from our road trip and watched last week’s episode of Lost.
Lordy, lordy, lordy... sounds just like that scene in Undercurrent.
I *love* Tino as an analyst!!! I think his nervous fast talking has gotten better already.

you know, it's very tough to live in denial when you keep YELLING THESE THINGS at me.

Of course it is! I really wish I could corner Mychael Urban one day and get the scoop.
Though you know what would be cool? A fic challenge: write a story explaining the strange dynamic between Zito and Mulder ^_~ It could be pretty interesting to see what people come up with.

the orioles/indians game ... what a ride!! for awhile i thought it was going to be a sloppy loss and then alluvasuddenwhatthehell 7run inning. and 2 indians pitchers leaving with an injury and starter having some kind of medical trouble that his teammates wouldnt let the cameras see (which i thought was sweeeet) and the announcers are all "we gotta respect his privacy" and "we dont wanna speculate" and the cameras kept trying to get good angles, and we get told its a blood sugar thing.

At the very least, my brother was happy for you (for them) last night. During our horrendously frustrating 8th inning, he kept looking at the out-of-town scoreboard and saying, "But the Orioles are doing well. Be happy for Myr." Then I said, "I think she kinda hates them now." He was distressed. I think he feels sort of bonded to you because he played with Baltimore in that video game one season. ;-) But I say root for whomever you'd like!
I'm glad he went to the game with me last night. We had fun for most of it. :-)

Don't worry...he'll get over it. ;-) I'll tell him you'll just have to find something new to bond over. Hey, he lived in Miami for five years...the Marlins should work.
Thank you! Someone who's been paying attention! :-P
Yes, ma'am. :-)

Thanks SO MUCH for posting that BDSSP clip! I turned on the tv too late because I thought it started at 10:30. (I have satellite tv, so apparently nothing comes on when they say it will come on, except for baseball.) I was so pissed, it almost ruined my night, because I was doing absolutely nothing while the show was ACTUALLY on at 9:30. (I think I was watching some weird comedy show on the BBC which made absolutely no sense to me.) I love seeing our A's not playing baseball - they are totally funny, interesting people. I think I would like them less if they gave monotone, one-word answers.
From:
no subject
Hee, you should! Or ask him questions! I get the feeling he would totally be up for answering questions, and he pads his posts with this Lost stuff cause he's not entirely sure what we want to hear.
But then, it's cute how all those guys hang out together to watch that show. I wonder if they'd be into Battlestar Galactica if we showed it to them.
Ahahaha. Dan seems a fan of the whole Lost mythology, so BSG is a show he'd enjoy, I imagine. I don't know about the others. Maybe Huston could get into the religious dialogue. Zito would get into the whole exploration of the human condition :-P And Rich? I have no idea; I don't really have any sense of him. Maybe he'd just tune in for Six ^_~
I love seeing our A's not playing baseball - they are totally funny, interesting people. I think I would like them less if they gave monotone, one-word answers.
It really helps that many of the A's are clearly pretty comfortable in an interview setting, which really goes a ways in giving you a sense of them as people. You see so many guys on Cold Pizza or what have you, and they can do little more than laugh nervously and spout cliches, you know?
[Bad username or site: rickenbacker / @ livejournal.com] managed to get the show on her dvd recorder, so she's ripped it. She says she'll upload the clips after work; I can hook you up with linkage then. (Or you could just check over in her LJ later - she has a handful of caps up now, in an unlocked post I think.)

I don't want to start watching Lost again, but dude! I would LOVE to get them into BSG. How I would do that, I don't know. Buy the dvds and mail them to the clubhouse? Hmm. (Hey, do you think Rich is more of a Six or a Starbuck kind of guy? The hot chick or the tough chick? Hmm... things to ponder.)
I think I more enjoy seeing pairs or groups of A's in interviews rather than just one, and not just for the obvious pleasure of seeing more than one, but because it's fun to see them interact. I think the best tv moment so far (not an interview) was after the back-to-back-to-back homers when they showed Swish and Bradley doing their "special handshake." Yeah, that was priceless :)

Hee. I think they were nudged; the mlb.com splashpage was running an anniversary thing earlier this week about how the blogs had started a year ago. The player blogs were featured prominently in the anniversary image, so I would bet MLB was like, "uh, guys could you update? thanks." Dan wrote his on Tuesday it looks like, though it wasn't posted until yesterday, and I think David's was written Tuesday too, the reference to the Braves series notwithstanding.
did he really print out everyone's suggestions for his blog? probably not.
I doubt it, only because when I last checked, there were something like 400 responses to his post asking people to come up with names for his blog. If he looks at the suggestions at all, I'll imagine it'll be 'cause he had someone from the public relations office compile all the selections into a shorter print-out that he could carry with him in his travel-on or whatever.
oh well, i'd call him (or the intern) on it but i'd probably just end up saying that the astros rule, mets drool and then that wouldn't be very nice.
lol, no.

(You guys should watch Battlestar Galactica on the SciFi Channel. It's a really good show. And no, I'm not a scifi nerd. I'm very big on character study. I teach English, you see.)
Okay, just so I sound like less of a weirdo for actually trying to talk about Lost... I'm very excited for this baseball season. I think the A's are going to accomplish big things, and I can't wait to see how everything unfurls...
Best of luck, and take care,
Thu
