That...Looks.....Awesome!!!

On another note, is it just me that's getting script error pop ups that require a click of the yes box since the new blog format?

If the other 5 readers could chime in, just curious.

I'm not a reader, but I do have to check the site occasionally. "Quality control".

There hasn't been a script error on this site when I've checked it and you're the first one to have mentioned one.

Anyone else having issues?

What....you couldn't play the Badger song?

Oh, the Badger Song played...and played...and played :)

Now that i'm at work, you know, working (insert throat clear here) it seems to be running just fine and my avatar showed up again on my posts.

I think i need to refresh/update my browser or something.

Over last weekend i'd upgraded TV's and providers to take full advantage of all the available HD goodness out there.

That came with high speed internet versus the DSL i had previously. Perhaps that has something to do with it. I'll have to dig further but it appears to be me, not you (insert Seinfeld joke here).

And before you ask, no. I'm afraid i'd dropped our stadiums fine title sponsor and am giving AT&T U-Verse a try. So far so good.

Looks great. Can't wait to get to work on it. (I'm part of the new video crew.)

Yada yada yada.....no, I mentioned the bisque.

I guess I'm one of those "other 5 readers"....that makes me feel special. No script errors for me...there was a while back, when I think Chris linked something to Baseball America, and I'd have a pop up when I visited the blog asking for a password and such, but no funny business in the last month or so.

Videoboard looks great...though, it's obviously still spring training for the official scorer. That second hit for the Rabbits was clearly an error and should have been scored as such. Can't wait to see who wins!

NICE Parkside!!! I think any time a quote from Seinfeld, Caddyshack or Fletch can be worked in, it's all right.

Joshua, welcome to Rattler Nation!!!

Now that i know what you do, you've opened yourself up to gobs of ideas for in game video clips...since you know, we've got a video board now... and can play clips.

Fletch and Fletch Lives are very underated so let me throw a couple out at you...sure some are stretches, but work with me here (i've got the DVD's if you need them...).

During that time of the game in which one of the crew brings something out to the umpires to drink..

Waiter: Excuse me, Señor. You are a member of the club?
Fletch: No, I'm not, I'm with the Underhills.
Waiter: They are left, Señor.
Fletch: It's all right, they'll be back. He went out for his urinalysis.
Waiter: Would you like some drinks, Señor, while you wait? I will put it on the Underhills' bill.
Fletch: Yes, very good. I'll have a Bloody Mary and a steak sandwich and... a steak sandwich, please

A bad, bad error by the opposition...

Alan Stanwyck: You'll be wearing rubber gloves. Do you own rubber gloves?
Fletch: I rent 'em. I have a lease with an option to buy.

An unusual player's name is announced...

Fletch: I'm John.
Gail Stanwyk: Ohhhh, John.
[they laugh]
Gail Stanwyk: John who?
Fletch: John Cock... tos... ton.
Gail Stanwyk: That's a beautiful name.
Fletch: Well, it's Scotch/Romanian.
Gail Stanwyk: That's an odd combination.
Fletch: Yeah, well, so were my parents

Ground crew comes out to rake the infield...

Calculus Entropy: Should I be doing anything?
Fletch: No, not really, um... as soon as you get that trunk upstairs and have finished your nap I guess you could fix that step and jump down, turn around and pick a bale of cotton. And while I'm gone see to it Miss Scarlet stays away from the Union army will you?

...and on and on and on...

This may be a record for comments on one post.

Just pointing out that out for you.

New Crew, More Fun!!!...

Sarah said...

I'm still waiting for proof of the Badger song....on the big screen.

Why is it every time I see that thing I laugh hysterically? I don't get it...
