Leanne is a better David Wright than David Wright.

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.

*ring ring* (And also that's why I gave up on being a communication major, me & words don't get along well.)

Haha. I agree, Leanne does a better less boring David.

Dood, I saw/recorded it too!! I should have emailed, I'm a bad friend. I only heard about it just before it happened, when ron_obsesser shot me an LJ comment about it. Then I got up and literally tripped all over myself to get a blank DVD.

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.

danny's blog ... huston came over and apologized!! this boy is TOO MUCH.

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.

Why oh why did I read that as "Brokeback version of Aces"?

Part of me wants to start re-watching Lost just so I can "converse" with Danny (ie, comment on his blogs), but then I'm like, No, that show sucks. The other part of me wants to comment and say, You know, I really don't care about Lost. Talk to me about baseball, goddammit! 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.

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.

i was really surprised to see that both haren and wright had updated again, in the same day. kind of suspicious. i love haren's, very nice and full of info, and i like wright's too, because it's like...written perfectly (i definitely have a thing with that). which goes back to your theory that it has to be an intern writing it. did he really print out everyone's suggestions for his blog? probably not. 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.

wow i'm wordy today. sry.

tee hee

I watched Lost for a season and a half, and sorry, but I was much less impressed with season 2 than season 1. The mood of the show just changed, you know? I loved how season 1 focused on character study and development, and the nature of humanity under duress. Then when they brought the new people in and started actually showing us "the others," things got all weird. The show went in a direction I wasn't interested in.
(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

you are so awful. Michael needs your love right now, not ridicule. :(

Also, a Jose blog > David blog, clearly. Or maybe David needs a peek at !David's LJ to see what the people REALLY WANT. :D

I just saw your comment to Danny Haren :) :) :) I wonder if he actually reads his comments. It would be cool if he responded, or if in his next blog he said, I got a couple of suggestions to watch BSG, so I did, and it was totally cool...
