Nothing happened in Sports (that count) yesterday

[Down38st8]

down, you see this:

Garin Cecchini is batting .346/.457/.513 with 16 runs scored, seven doubles, two home runs and 19/16 K/BB in 21 games since a promotion to Double-A Portland in mid-June.
The 22-year-old third baseman was arguably the hottest hitter in the minor leagues over the first half of the season, posting a 1.016 OPS with 28 extra-base hits, 15 stolen bases and 34/43 K/BB in 63 games for High-A Salem. A left-handed hitter, Cecchini manages the strike zone as well as any hitter and has quietly hit his way up the organizational ladder since the start of the 2012 season. Although he lacks the power typically associated with a third baseman, his ability to hit for average and get on base at a favorable clip should help him reach the major leagues at some point next season.

See it? No...but I'm up to speed on him this year...

And the power will come...he's 6'3 200lbs...once he's in his mid to late 20's? He's got 20-30 hr potential. Getting a lot of "left handed David Wright" comps from scouts right now...

keith law, after leaving him off his preseason top 100, has him in his top 25 midseason...

Sox prospects had him 8th or 9th at the start of the year....he's 3rd now behind Xander and JBJ...

LSU QB rips Tim Tebow’s mechanics

LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger took a shot at current Patriots backup quarterback Tim Tebow on Thursday, ripping Tebow’s mechanics.
Mettenberger, who spent the offseason working with former NFL assistant and current LSU offensive coordinator Cam Cameron, has struggled at times — he finished 70th in the country last year in passing efficiency and 73rd in completion percentage. (Last season, he threw for 2,609 yards and 12 touchdowns on 207-of-352 passing.)
But he said he’s not as bad as Tebow.
“It’s not like I’m Tim Tebow and have terrible mechanics,” Mettenberger told reporters.
Tebow was acquired last month by New England. In three years in the NFL, he has completed 47.9 percent of his passes, throwing for 2,422 yards, 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

Please wait 10 minutes so that others with better zingers can have a crack before you ruin a good setup.

I don't watch a lick of television, outside of game of thrones, walking dead and Sons of Anarchy (losing interest in this one)...listen to most ball games on the radio...

hate 99.9% of the crap on TV...so instead? I play Call of Duty and shoot 12 year olds avatars in the face...much more satisfy'ing than finding out what happens next on Duck Hunters...

Down, you on Xbox or PS3?

I just got on Black Ops II a couple of weeks ago on Xbox...I have a problem putting the controller down when I'm playing Team Deathmatch...My wife has been spending an awful lot of time at Dirt's place since I started playing..

I goes great with those pearls I'm wearing

never doubted that you've worn a pearl necklace numerous times

 

[black francis]

We know of an ancient radiation
That haunts dismembered constellations,
A faintly glimmering radio station.
While Frank Sinatra sings Stormy Weather,
The flies and spiders get along together,
Cobwebs fall on an old skipping record.

“It’s not like I’m Tim Tebow and have terrible mechanics,” Mettenberger told reporters.

So...then you suck, because you just suck?

Nice dig, dumbass...

Holly Peers.

[Down38st8]

Patriots fans, UNITE!!!

No it's not that...I'm been very clear on the Tebow thing...he sucks, and signing him was stupid...

But that doesn't make what he said anything but fucking stupid...

 

[cerealboi]

Patriots fans, UNITE!!!

Yeah. I'm really not up for defending Tebow all season. I hope he gets cut in training camp.

 

[Rock Strongo]

Holly Peers.

Yes.

That is all.

is your hand a deformed claw now?

 

[Kate Upton]

Yeah. I'm really not up for defending Tebow all season. I hope he gets cut in training camp.

I heard on some radio show last week I think that Vegas has his odds of making the final 53 at less than 50%.
