Ok, I guess I’m the only one who thought it was weird the guy who caught the ball was wearing a Nuno jersey. Vidal Nuno? Is he related? Did he purchase it on a dare?

Hey, at least I’m not talking about the condiment race.

Okay this is starting scare me.

It's an absolute miracle we haven't been hit by more things from space. Last time was Tunguska and that thing detonated 3-5 miles in the air and still flattened 80 million trees. If that's over a populated area, millions of people die. We now know that something caused a very rapid melting of ice two miles think that covered all of Canada about 13,000 years ago that caused global flooding, mass extinctions and sea levels to rise 400ft. It may have been caused by an impact to Greenland of which a crater was found recently.

Earth flies through space rocks all the time and we've had several near misses over the last 10 years. A solar flare didn't miss the planet by much a few years ago which would have sent us back to the stone age in the blink of an eye. The fact we care more about being able to watch TV on cell phones instead of trying to figure out how to protect ourselves from catastrophic events like this is exactly how we will go extinct. We're so stupid, really. Humans.

I'm not even sure what I should be doing right now. It's been a minute since we have had some decent baseball.

Time to give Trey a rest and bring in The Crusher.

[mrbig1]

Cashner once again got a long rest.

My problem is I'm too lazy to backup. I think, how often do you crash? Odds are my stuff is safe.

 

 

And I've learned... a crash isn't the worst thing... Cleans out everything, fresh new start from scratch. New virgin computer!

I just set up my computer to automatically make backups at like 5am. I never shut my PC down. I think it's better to keep things warm as opposed to constant cool/warm cycles which wears components out faster. That's kind of debatable, but it's my position based on experience.

I'm willing to sacrifice Bruce Willis.

Remember his album?

Oh God I hope not! You're maybe bringing up a repressed memory...

[mrbig1]

We should let Davis pitch. He hits like a pitcher.

11th-rder Andrew Dashbach signs with @Orioles for $250k ($125k counts vs bonus pool). Stanford 1B, power is his best tool, 17 HR in each of last two seasons. @MLBDraft

 

Dashbach in the fold, per Jim Callis.

[MurphDogg]

Great catch. Might have been an inside the park home run if it got by Broxton.

[Il BuonO]

Nice play, stud like even.

[mrbig1]

Great catch!!

Whatever happens, there is nothing we can do about it.  Try to block a solar flare?  Good luck.
