Jedidiah Stephen Really Likes Hunting
First, my apologies if you experienced a “database connection” error while trying to visit the site earlier today. Somethin’ weird was happening with my hosting service, but things appear to be normal now.
Moving on…I noticed the other day that the Sun has a new blog dedicated to Orioles minor league system. It’s called O’s On Deck and it’s been pretty informative so far.
Like, for example, today’s Q&A with Delmarva infielder Jedidiah Stephen. Wherein we learn that he really, really enjoys hunting. In a seemingly innocuous, “get to know you” kind of survey he manages to mention hunting no less than four times, including the troubling revelation that it — along with playing his PSP and watching DVDs — is one of his preferred ways to pass time on a long road trip.
Hmm…
Last night didn’t go as planned, and I’m kinda bummed. Here’s hoping Guthrie has a typically awesome game tonight.
Remember when the O’s gave Carl Pavano the red carpet treatment? Put his face up on the jumbotron and all of that? Sweet lord did we dodge a bullet there.
Speaking of blogs…like Roch, Steve Melewski has a blog over at MASN and it’s pretty damn informative. Check out his comments about Chris Ray and winning in the minors from today’s entry. Good stuff.
i was just in fells point eating pizza and the place is completely MOBBED with yankee fans. we finished our pizza and had two slices left.
every table was packed with nyc gorilla-men being really loud and obnoxious, waiting for pizza. there was one table with guys in orioles gear who’d already eaten.
so i walked through all the tables of hungry scumbags and asked the O’s fans very loudly if they’d like my remaining two slices and they were like “hell yeah”!
i said “i ain’t giving it to no yankee fans that’s for damn sure” and we laughed and high-fived as the tables around us stared threatingly at us.
good times.
Worst loss of the year, in my opinion. If Carl Pavano beats you, hang your heads. No sugar-coating that.
