Whoa...

There ya' go. Use you head and not your mouth. I'm a fan!

And also as the album cover where Trane is playing a short-shank Selmer Soloist mouthpiece!

Otoh, I recently sent a bigass Media Mail package to New Hampshire and it got there in about 48 hours. From Texas. Surprised the shit out of me but there it was, it happened, it really happened.

Sign stealing is "ok" if it's done on the field as part of the on-field alertness. What the Astros did was far beyond that. They used technology in a systematic way. Way beyond normal Spy vs Spy gamesmanship. That's more like Mafia shit. Ball tampering otoh...part of the game as long as you don't get caught. Some very high profile players are rumored to have done it, but they didn't get caught, so... There's a latent criminality in every competitive endeavor, a with it comes lines that are generally agreed on that shouldn't be crossed - past a certain point!

Not the worst idea!

1937 was an interesting year.

We can thank goodness for the Angels and A's.

We'll see. It'll take a lot and we may we'll end up sellers.

I think they compliment the album in an "after party" type way.

Do you have the bonus 45 that came with it?

What is that?

Huge, especially since the "punishment" was egregiously underwhelming. The Astro are still stained as "cheaters" by many fans.

Traps Wrandon - Stanky!!!

Flusher Stark - Hot Shot!!!

That's an interesting record.

Watertown is on my list of music that a lot of people whose opinion I respect like but has yet to really register with me. I think it's the lyrics, I don't buy them coming from that corner IMO, this is more like it: I can believe that.

He must be from the Astros.

My wife's the show-watcher here, but she's always finding good shows for her on Apple+.

Phil Samms - Alone At Last

They got beat rather handily last night... The match we're seeing is against MINY. Nicholas Pooran, who I guess is a kind of Babe Ruth figure. Watching the match last on TV. The players were mingling with the fans and signing autographs. You don't see that these days in other sports. Nice!

I had not known that Calello's first name-brand gig was as arranger for The Four Seasons. That explains the relationship with Bob Gaudio, as well as his affinity for the vocal insanities of Lou Christie. He probably heard Christie and thought, oh, this guy is like Frankie Valli only WEIRD, I can have some fun here... Gaudio & Calello would soon enough get their kink on though:

The food, yes...the website says : https://www.majorleaguecricket.com/fanfaq Can I buy food and drinks in the venue? Grand Prairie Stadium: Yes, food and drinks (including alcohol) will be available for sale at the venue. The food available will be a mix of cuisines ranging from ballpark classics (fries, hot dogs, etc.) to south asian favorites (biryani, chaat, etc.) to authentic Texas BBQ! So I'm like, half of me wants to stay in my seat and watch the match while the other half of me eats and eats and eats. Win-win, that would be!
