BTW, welcome to the Giants’ board. Pretty quiet today. More posting tomorrow methinks.

I will be a little less active this week. Taking the kids on a road trip through Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky. Got to see Busch Stadium from the top of the Gateway Arch but, alas, no game today. Stadium looks nice.

Your kids can respond for you, just dictate your posts as you drive, they need to learn sooner or later.

Busch is a nice stadium, though a little dated now.

The Gateway Arch is really cool! It's in a park along the Mississippi. Last summer, we spent a couple of days in St. Louis, and I walked that park every morning. It was much cooler by the river than downtown.

Where you headed in the other states? Family? Other stadiums? (Stay clear of Guaranteed Rate Field on the southside, not a safe neighborhood.) Sounds like a great trip as long as you avoid the crazy weather.

This is one of the more active team boards on the message board. I like when the Phil’s have a series with you guys to talk some baseball.

We are way more active. Glad to have you here.

I went to 17 stadiums in 50 days last summer, and saw 20 games. (All the stadiums I hadn't yet been to, so now I've been to them all.)

I liked the Philly ballpark. I stayed at a hotel in midtown, and took the light rail to the stadium. It was a beautiful night, and the game was good. It was late July, and as I recall, Harper had only 4 homers at that point. I talked with some of the Phillie phans around me and asked what was up with that. They were very nice to me, even though I was wearing some Giants gear.

Yup, I'm out. Phuk shitshow moundshattery.

Get em tomorrow...or not.

Weak ass fan

 

[msgkings322]

He just can’t locate his fastball right now. Snell’s start to the season this year is mind boggling.

Not really. Missed spring training thanks to Scott Boras. Started slow last year too

Glad your guys didn’t sweep us again

 

[msgkings322]

It isn’t THAT surprising. He is a notorious slow starter, and this year he didn’t even get to ST until almost the end of it. He is essentially stealing money this year.

So far anyway

Baseball is a much better scene for visitors than football or hockey. I’m glad you had a good experience. Yeah Harper’s power numbers were way down last year coming out of Tommy John.

It was nice posting with you, Stokes. You will be missed.

 

[Stokes1931]

It was nice posting with you, Stokes. You will be missed.

Yeah, wait until tzill sees that!

I better call Nick Lowry.

 

[LHG]

It was nice posting with you, Stokes. You will be missed.

Actually, he’ll be loved forever. I believe he just said Susac is better, if I remember how that works correctly.

National park trip. Tomorrow is Indiana Dunes, then Cuyahoga Valley, Abraham Lincoln’s birthplace, Mammoth Cave and the Corvette museum because I love Corvettes. No baseball on this trip. Haven’t been successful converting my own children to the ways of baseball and they even have friends who live baseball. I have failed as a parent

Well, two are teenagers so they may sound more intelligent than me. That is not a ruse I could keep up very long.

Sounds great. I think National Parks are my next bucket list. I believe there are 60+ of them, and I can think of about 25 I have already visited. May you enjoy your trip, and may there be many happy memories for your offspring!

 

[msgkings322]

Forgot to mention FYWW with 5 innings no runs vs a team that can hit

You’d better get LHG to take you on the trip and get you into WitPro…

I’m going to be heading to The Lou with some frequency now as my niece got into WashU. Looking forward

Okay, looked it up and it was used correctly. Stokes, I could find you a place where tzill could never find you. Ten you could speak the truth without fear.

Weak ass fan

Tzill and I, we have our differences, but he’s been pretty loyal. We all have our weaknesses but I wouldn’t call his fandom weak. In fact, he is so invested that he regularly poops his pants for them. Doubt he does that for the other 29 MLB teams.
