Talking Chop

nice.

i sing that to my 8th graders.

and they love it!

do you have a phonebank?

I don’t know what that is.

i effed that up anyway

Do you know if the hotel is pager friendly?

What do you mean?

I’m not getting a sig’ on my beeper.

I’m not sure.

Is there a payphone bank? Buncha payphones? Business.

Umm, there’s a phone in your room…

That’ll work.

hahahaha. Classic.

rec'd

I bought that movie for 9 bucks. Best investment ever

Where did you find it for $9???

Target, on sale. Was there buying...something for my ex's new apartment.

They had the first 3 seasons of IASIP for like, 15 a piece?

was she your ex at the time?

of course not. i'm not that stupid. she dragged me there for window treatments or some shit.

lolol

calm down

=D

haha, yeah just thought i'd run by tarjay...pick her up a scented candle

…eggs…?

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

No I'm pretty sure it rains there occasionaly

My jokes are unbearably lame.

the more i drink the harder i find it to keep up with you smart-asses lol

I have so many questions……………….was she dead… or just enjoying some milk?

My question is, who the hell was on top of her? I mean, that was just impressive.

melky cabrera

thought it was obvious! =P

who? the entire 1986 bronco’s team

hello, south park reference. good pull!

My dad was a…ginger?

made it to the big leagues

as a moundsman? shut the hell up, chip.

Moundsman? Ahhh, Chip....that's enough.

17 runs in 2 days?

Where’d the Braves team I knew and loved go?

Can we just break out Rainbow Llamasaurus now?

don't do it!

do not taunt rainbow llamasaurus.

Not gonna happen

How many runs do we have to be up by before Llamasaurus gets to come out and enjoy part of the game?

12 more outs

You so mean to Llamasaurus….never let him enjoy game….

I thought Llamasaurus sometimes came out before, but Rainbow Llamasaurus was strictly postgame. Is that not right?

AllSaintsDay - May 2, 2010 reply

The only time I remember him coming out before the conclusion of the game was when I made a fanpost before the Mets series. The two preemptory Llamasauruses did not turn out well.

dear god, man.. he could have eaten you whole

melky above .200! glaus’s BA (.241) almost catching up to mccann’s (.246)!

This is clearly Terry Pendleton’s fault. Let’s haul him out back and beat the shit out of him!

Heyward 3, Astros 1

GT Braves - May 2, 2010 reply

DLowe done already?

Why pull Derek?

Medlen wanted to party

I’m surprised they are using Meds with JJ hurt

bighop - May 2, 2010 reply

JJ should be back in normal rest i heard from a little bird

then why is he wearing all of his clothes?

all he needs is a speedo and bowtie.

Party Boy. May be Medlen's new nickname

i can dig it

Probably because there’s an off day tomorrow.

Ron A. - May 2, 2010 reply

So he doesn't get a DLW and give up 5 runs...

Vance in Sacramento - May 2, 2010 reply

Bobby jonesing for some Moylan? It’s been like a whole day.

bobby cox

since when has he been Derek Lowe ERA protector™?

DAMMIT

d lowe doesn’t get that coveted “quality start”

But he can get the more important "W"

Vance in Sacramento - May 2, 2010 reply

mmhmm

Herbert?

?

not with ya on this one

I think he meant Sherbet

i love me

some orange sherbet

YES

There are simply not enough pedophile references in the OTs.

Get your fat space ass back here

Just callin’ to see where the paper boy is. Bring me some good news!

Got some popsicles in the basement.

reach your hand in my pocket and get yourself a tip.

Shennanigans?

Whoever can swallow the most Tylenol PM’s wins!

It must be my birthday!

the fantasy where Herbert sings and is the housewife...amazing

That was the best. Jasper is just as funny to me.

hahaha just remember the

CY LOWE

nate is a good CF

that was an easy play, but i was thinking earlier how effortless he makes it seem to play

1-2-3 for Meds

why did he pull lowe

at 84 pitches

drumzalicious - May 2, 2010 reply

because medlen

is more effective

The bullpen > Lowe and they’re off tomorrow.

Ron A. - May 2, 2010 reply

medlen

123

Think I’m gonna buy me some tickets for Sunday the 16th and head down to see another game.

Troy Glaus…almost up to his career BA.

Mmmmhmmmm.

I approve.

i can’t believe FW didn’t cut him in april

Seriously. Melky too.

actually, i’m surprised they let bobby manage for another year— this franchise is going to hell. I’ve been saying since winter that we should sign Michael Vick and cut Tim Hudson

I like you.

i’m going to need you to sign a prenup if this ends up going anywhere

Mad bonus points to anyone who gets this reference (Without looking it up):

I like you, Mr. Donovan.

shit...i know this

and i’ll feel like crap when someone figures it out

At least then we would know that the franchise has gone to the dogs...

That was your worst one yet. lol

again

I aim to please.

too easy… i’m going to resist

TWSS

goddamn it, you are awkward ;P

haha

Where the fuck have you been today?

Feeling like shit. In bed.

You’ve been missing awesomeness (or have you?).

Was getting updates on my phone. Watched the nice hustle double by Heyward.

ugh..

clean that up.

So, you were too sick to walk down the stairs to the basement?

seriously. grab a beer, you got some catching up to do

ugh…no beer

I got 10 more CL's. They are cold activated too.

I don’t know how I drank beer before cold-activated cans

what a joke

for a taste as cold as the rockies!

first of all, “cold” is not a taste. 2nd of all, NO WAY it’s as cold as the rockies! false advertising be damned!

AAAGHHH

awkward Rome joke…

The city on seven hills

…in North Georgia?

Zach Towery - May 2, 2010 reply

anyone notice

K Med looks a little like Nate @ the plate?

agree

especially with that 4

as the 2nd digit of his number

Because he K’d?

lol no, silly.

prads and chip need to get there shit together

yeah!

Marteen’s only hitting .340 or so. shit.

thats what im saying...

unnacceptable…i’m expecting atleast .500 out of him

point taken

Yeah...

He’s below the Prado Line. It’s completely unacceptable.

There can only be one Yankees lineup, so that is why Prado and Chipper aren’t doing much.

One of these years I will make my pilgrimage to the Ted.

do it, man!

lots of fun

You’ve never been? Do it.

ditto

have we had

two consecutive games with a hit in the leadoff position?

The last 3-4 games had one.

The Yankees are pissing all over the CWS. 12-0.

ew.

that’s gross.

Why do I get the image of the old Calvin pissing in my head at that?

Because it was one of the most over-produced car stickers?

i hate that those 3rd party companies

ruined the Calvin likeness with that crap. i know that watterson didn’t approve

crap

next half inning, chipper will, yet again, come up with nobody on base.

my little brother

is experiencing his first major league game today. for free. in a mvp box @ oriole park. lucky bastard

Unfortunately...

That means he’s watching the Orioles.

yeah, but still

great experience. at least the sox are in town. so it’s a full house

against the Red Sox. which makes it worse

Camden Yards?

next inning

1. chip gets a hit
2. bmac gets a hit
3. glausy walks
4. jhey hits the granny

its bound to happen eventually

i like your train of thought.

choo choo

2 years and counting…

Wouldn’t it be ironic if instead of hitting a grandslam, Heyward just hits a foul ball that strikes an elderly woman in the stands?

haha

and again

In Bloom?

the bRAVES may have the best organist

he even has a twitter account!

schlagdawg - May 2, 2010 reply

They said he was playing the theme for Dallas when J.R. Towles came up

he was and i noticed

if you follow along, you’ll catch lots of them all year.

they were playing the Beatles'

“hey bulldog” earlier…but didn’t put it together

keep your ear out all year,...

and they’ll treat you a lot. I remember it last year too. Always has some good ones in there.

And MASH when they had an injury hold up

yeah

That's Quagmire!

“Organist wanted”

in particular

ways of cutting food

Glavine is no Smoltz. Kind of boring.

Agreed.

Smoltz is much more “colorful”.

yep.

need glavine + smoltz in booth together

what the hell was that yelp?!

wondered the same, thought it was Chip at first

I, as well.

Blah...

Damn you Bourn!

he was out i think

replay says

yes

ump feels sorry for the astros

damn

i think glaus just ripped his balls

I just want to say “Thank you” to everyone in this thread. This has been a pleasant OT today without all of the fairweather, sky is falling type fans.

seconded

plus, we had a really nice Labyrinth conversation

Bonus.

Any day with David Bowie is a bonus.

ha, sounds like I did miss something

and pedofiles...

missed that one

Herbert.

ah

i miss quite a few references since i’m not a family guy…guy.

Sherbet?

I should have posted this earlier

You remind of the babe

What babe?

The one with the power

What power? The power of voo-doo?

did you see the Prestige?

excellent movie

Of course it is.

Christopher Nolan doesn’t make non-excellent movies.

can’t wait for Inception this summer.

schlagdawg - May 2, 2010 reply

Aye...

Iron Man 2 and Inception are actually the only movies I care to see this summer.

agree

Iron Man 2 looks awesome

schlagdawg - May 2, 2010 reply

yesterday

bought my tickets for the iron man/iron man 2 double feature at the local cine

very much looking forward

to Inception.

also, Batman 3 has an official release date! it’s a go!

Who is the villian in this one?

No one knows yet.

Odds are it’s the Riddler + Catwoman, though.

I wonder if they are going to touch the villians like Penguin…

i'd like to see the joker chapter decidedly closed

you could get DD-L or Depp to do it easily

Or use splice work with HL.

possibly

Did you ever see his movie Following?

Indeed. I also just watched Sherlock Holmes and was very impressed. Thought it would suck. It did not.

Anything with RDJr will not suck. He is quickly becoming my favorite actor.

Yeah, he was great. Law was great too, the banter between the two of them was top notch.

Yes it was.

Generally like Guy Ritchie movies for me.

Downey and Law can go either way for me.

I thought it was a more commercialized Guy Ritchie movie.

Not as good as Snatch, Rock n Rolla, Lock Stock. But pretty decent

that's because it WAS

a commercialized guy ritchie movie

So was Snatch

not like this

true

Snatch is amazing. Not sure which I like better, Snatch or LS2SB

snatch, no question

booo

Lock Stock wins easy

-1

the "psychotic black dwarf with an Afro"?

Sting, Mr. Botanical, so many good lines. Definitely the better flick imo.

I do like me some Soap, but I prefer Snatch. (twhs?)

Soap might be my favorite of the 4...

“Keep your hands outta my soup”.
“Can we lock up and get drunk now?”

“No Harry, ya can’t”

I also like Barry the Baptist.
“I hate these Northern monkeys”
“FUcking southern fairies”

Geez, it’s become obvious that I need to watch it again…the only line you’ve quoted that I remember is “keep your hands outta my soup” and that’s because it’s my favorite.

Can we lock up and get drunk now

is after the robbery. Their finishing up counting money and Jason Statham is on the couch smoking a J.

No Harry ya can’t, is when he keeps asking Barry and Vinnie Jones if he can look like the asshole.

The robber getting a “hair cut” from a shot gun. And yeah, you do. So many great scenes, so many great lines.
“Shotguns? What, like guns that fire shot?”

Rory Breaker kills me. The weed growers…
Winston: Charles, why have we got that cage?
Charles: Uh, security.
Winston: That’s right, that’s right, security. So what’s the point in having it if we’re not goin’ fucking use it?
Charles: Well, I would’ve used it but this is Willie and Willie lives here.
Winston: Yes, but you didn’t know it was Willie until you opened the door, did you?
Willie: Chill, Winston, it’s me. Charlie knows it’s me. What’s the problem?
Winston: The problem, Willie, is that Charles and yourself are not the quickest of cats at the best of times. So just do as I say and keep the fucking cage locked! What is that?
Willie: That’s Gloria.
Winston: Yes I know that’s Gloria, what’s that?
Willie: Fertilizer.
Winston: You went out six hours ago to buy a money counter and you come back with a semi-conscious Gloria and a bag of fertilizer. Alarm bells are ringing, Willie.
Willie: We need fertilizer Winston.
Winston: Mmmhmm. We also need a money counter. This money’s got to be out by Thursday, I’m buggered if I’m gonna count it. Just make sure if you do need to buy sodding fertilizer you could be a bit more subtle.
Willie: What do you mean?
Winston: We grow copious amounts of ganja, yah? And you’re carrying a wasted girl and a bag of fertilizer. You don’t look like your average horti-fucking- culturalist! That’s what I mean Willie

I've used "Alarm bells are ringing Willie" alot.

Ha, that scene is great. Definitely remember that one.

to be honest, you can't really go wrong with either...

i just like the original best.

If I could only watch one movie for eternity, Snatch might be it

woah…bold statement

yeah...

really bold

mine might be Fievel Goes West. Hahaha, MOUSE BURGERS!!!

oh wow

you BACK OFF evening news team

lol

just watched that the other day

ever watch

the “sequel” made from deleted scenes and such, called “wake up, ron burgundy?”

yeah, not a fan

no sir

it has its moments

If only to figure out what the Pikeys are saying?

Ya like dawgs?

Of course I like dawgs.

dags?

Quick Tommy, before zie Germans get here

proper fucked?

Periwinkle blue

it's for me ma

It was two minutes five minutes ago

So that's the kind of fight it's going to be!

I like neither kind.

AllSaintsDay - May 2, 2010 reply

The DVD I have has subtitle settings that you can have only subtitles for the Pikeys. It’s pretty enlightening

i love Brad Pitt

An underrated great....

Snatch, A River Runs Through It, Legends of the Fall, 12 Monkeys, Cool World.

Awww man...

I haven’t seen Cool World in ages…

you remember

cool world?

?

You expect me to be a child?

it wasn't exactly a success

if memory serves

Your point?

it was kind of a joke. Like saying best prospect we have? Freeman? Teheran? Gress?

Seven, Fight Club

Never seen Cool World

I’ll watch it tonight though. Meet Joe Black? ARRTI is top 5 all time for me

Dude is a dreamboat. I get lost in his eyes.

haha, I'd do him.

wait what? I blacked out, what happened

The Xtacles?

He’s playing fucking Billy Beane…ha, that’s going to be great.

Fight Club, Se7en, Snatch have given me a solid Brad Pitt man-crush.

Benjamin Button was utter shit though

I liked Button.

One of my favorites. Unlike Orlando Bloom, Pitt is a really good actor.

OB as Paris in Troy makes me want to puke

TROY! Another good Pitt movie

This.

Leonardo DiCaprio, too.

I can get down with some Leo though

Leo might be my favorite. I went on a serious Leo binge last year where I watched like 6 of his movies in a row.

Body of Lies was impressive.

hated Crowe, and his accent

Hahaha. I thought he was pretty good.

horrible southern accent

besides gladiator

i am not a crowe fan. we’ll see how robin hood is.

Not as good as Prince of Thieves.

booo

This.

The new Robin Hood is going to suck. It’s just going to be a bunch of crazy action sequences with bows instead of guns. The setting will be peripheral and there will be next to no plot.

Beautiful Mind was good. So was LA Confidential. American Gangster and 3:10 to Yuma too.

+1

and Robin Hood looks like it is going to be badass.

Can agree on the last two...

never watched LA Confidential. Beautiful Mind bothered me, a delusional, schizo math genius hit too close to home.

you think very highly

of yourself

=D

You seriously gotta check out LA Confidential. It’s very, very, very good.

seconded

Its really good. And also really entertaining.

Yeah, that was one of them. Good flick.

I did that with Pitt, where I discovered Meet Joe Black.

Also did it with young tom hanks and bill murray movies, but Leo is a stud. The Beach and Catch Me If You Can? Great.

Still haven’t seen MJB. The Beach was real good. Catch Me…ehh.

MJB may be his best – and it is an interesting reminder of what the 90s were like. I miss the 90s.

That Tony Hopkins...

“I’d watch him read a phone book”

+22 for anyone who can call that quote

I like Hanks a lot...

he and Walken are generally gold

Yep, also lots of great one

The Beach! Catch me if you can, the Departed

the departed was pretty radical

The Departed was an awesome movie. It’s one of the few Best Picture winners at the Oscars that I’ve ever agreed with.

You didn’t like No Country? That’s like my 2nd favorite movie of all time.

'tis a good one

I said “one of”….but to be honest, I don’t remember what else came out the year that No Country For Old Men won Best Picture. I’d have to double check on it. It was a damn good movie, though.

There will be blood, one of the batmans (IIRC)

Dark Knight is the shit

There Will Be Blood...

which was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY too long

There will be blood

There will be blood, michael clayton, juno, and attonement

Juno sucks

yeah I thought I’d like it…and I fell asleep

all of those

were pretty great

Juno – barf.

Oh yeah, certainly not his best…not by a long shot. But judging from the previews I thought it would be a suckfest, but I really enjoyed it.

thirded

I was serious about Vick though…

Well… we are winning, let’s see how they handle adversity.

MatM - May 2, 2010 reply

They don’t

i think that was his point

Indeed.

When we lose, people come out of the woodwork.

It is funny. Winning puts fans in the stands, but losing puts them on the OTs.

What I’m saying is they are gone, and the people that are here are behaving well, but we are winning.

15ks - May 2, 2010 reply

So, how’d Lowe look?

good not great

gave up a lot of baserunners…but only 1 run. had good control

Decent.

Bobby pulled him an inning early in my opinion.

You know, I wonder if Bobby is gonna make Medlen pitch the rest of the way.

Is anyone up in the bullpen?

thank you both

With this lead, let our innings eater

eat innings.

Perhaps this is half planned.

What if bobby is trying to stretch out medlen plus i haven’t looked but someone might have to start a day earlier than usual.

Then again, bobby could be going bullpen crazy again.

Nope....

day off tomorrow probably explains it. But we’re going in order after that with Jurrjens sliding back in Saturday to rest his hammy.

They already addressed this earlier...

With the off day tomorrow, they’re skipping JJ in the rotation (he’s still recovering from the pulled hammy) and KK will pitch on normal rest. They’re getting Meds some extra work in case he has to start for JJ on Saturday, in the event that his hamstring is still sore.

I ignore parts of the game thread that actually has to do with the game.

Damn that ump for getting in the way

haha I was thinking this.

How does it feel to be an all-american?

I HAVE TO PEE!

lol Mac

man

mvpcast just took a dump…stop lagging!

Seriously.

same. I’m just listening to it at this point.

Geez

Too bad Jo-Jo wasn’t “hurt”. This would be a perfect scenario for him to get some work in. And by get some work in, I mean surrender the lead and take the L.

Silence!

I hope JHey's HR streak continues

me too.. braves could use a little ESPN love

nah they don't

don’t cross me, i know where you get your material

I’d like to see a 57 game HR streak from him. That’d be cool.

That’d be good for at least a couple records. :-p

Sweep impending – so it’s going great.

Its been a good day for the Bravos. How was golf?

lol for me....

pretty average…93….I’m not very good…but neither is anyone I play with so all in all a good day

Better than me. I’ve been playing for a year and rarely even keep score (too painful).

If i ever took the time to practice I might not be TOO bad…but once every two weeks isnt going to really improve my game

understandable

I’ve committed myself to paying for two lessons this summer. One at the beginning to re-teach myself some stuff. And then one in July to try correct all the bad habits I pick up.

Jason Heyward good.

Not saying this should be done immediately, but when do you think Heyward finds himself either hitting 3rd or clean up? Will it happen this season?

MatM - May 2, 2010 reply

i love him at 6

driving in a ton of runs

seconded

no way this happens this season.. ever

Maybe in one of those games that we see Ross, Infante, Hinske and Diaz all start…

so a tough lefty when glaus and chipper gets hurt?

anyone see I hope they serve beer in hell?

I rented it for tonight

they made that into a movie?

yea….I haven’t read the book either but I hear its hilarious

ehh

well i guess we’ll find out later

or I will

No, nor do I want to. The dude sounds like a complete douche-bag.

this

i also received "the invention of lying"

through blockbuster online

boo

so much potential, and Louis CK was the only redeeming part

well it looks like both my choices tonight look like they’ll dissapoint

been meaning to check that one out

EXTREMELY sacriligous at the end...

had some nice parts, but without Louis CK it would be MUCH worse

this is true

i actually enjoyed the invention of lying. thought it was a funny concept. Pretty good.

The movie was a 5 out of 10. There were a few hilarious parts but overall poorly written/acted

The book was a 10 out of 10. I have never laughed that hard at a book in my entire life. Over and over and over again. It was graphic, and amazing. Buy the book!
