I don't get this Friday-night homework thing.

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 7 October 2005 17:12 (eighteen years ago) link

Neither do I. That's why it SUCKS.

David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 7 October 2005 18:25 (eighteen years ago) link

i will be a little late

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Friday, 7 October 2005 20:04 (eighteen years ago) link

isn't this getting rained out?

John (jdahlem), Friday, 7 October 2005 20:08 (eighteen years ago) link

i think they still serve pitchers when it rains!

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Friday, 7 October 2005 20:12 (eighteen years ago) link

Daniel suffered nobly in yr place, Rapozer. Alas I was drunker than I thought and couldn't even get to 6OrgsofAdmittance on time.

If the Yanks are rained out today I plan to be at Coliseum Books for Prospectus folks.

Mine was a lonely struggle, but I had a fun time, and learned a valuable lesson about cold medicine and its interactions with alcohol.

I might be back in town in two weeks for a film shoot, and I'd be all for getting together again - is WS game 1 scheduled for 10/22?

d4niel coh3n (dayan), Saturday, 8 October 2005 16:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Cold medicine! tsk tsk. Sat 10/22, yeah.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 9 October 2005 16:33 (eighteen years ago) link

Anyone want to meet up for ANA/NYY tonight?

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 9 October 2005 18:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, the Waco Bros have cancelled at Southpaw tonight. Anyone willing for The Wrath of Eddings tonight at Callbox? (I'd likely arrive around the fourth.)

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:14 (eighteen years ago) link

i don't think i can make it. i am still exhausted from my flu -- which i have mostly gotten over, but am still so drained.

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, the Waco Bros have cancelled at Southpaw tonight.

they did? that's strange. i guess i'll get the scoop monday.

games 5-7 (assuming there are any) of CHW-LAA, i'm there.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:54 (eighteen years ago) link

OK, perhaps early next week then.

There was some family medical emergency w/ the Wacos, scrapped their East Coast dates.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 14 October 2005 14:00 (eighteen years ago) link

ah that kinda sucks. i wasn't gonna go, but my other job is for the guy that manages langford.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 14 October 2005 14:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Jon's always worth seeing just for the stage patter.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 14 October 2005 14:21 (eighteen years ago) link

So can we do this for Game One? d4niel coh3n, Jams? will hstencil be in Reinsdorf's box?

I need to drink a couple actual beers beforethe pitchers of Bud, however. 4 hours of that will kill ya.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 20 October 2005 15:59 (eighteen years ago) link

I am thinking about it. Filming this weekend got cancelled; I might stay up here and see Oneida and Big Bear on Saturday instead. I'm probably going to be in New York next weekend for the Mountain Goats show either way; if it goes to game 6 or 7 I could be game.

d4niel coh3n (dayan), Thursday, 20 October 2005 18:56 (eighteen years ago) link

i have a birthday party in the west village i need to be at at 10. could we meet somewhere in manhattan early for drinx beforehand? that might be the jam.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 20 October 2005 23:26 (eighteen years ago) link

That might be a bit roundabout for me, as I will be on the UWS during the day and need to be settled somewhere at 8:03 (first pitch).

I could do Sunday or Tuesday too, of course. Jams?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 21 October 2005 12:43 (eighteen years ago) link

well i'm definitely watching the game. not sure where. somewhere in the city would be okay with me. who all would be in? tracer, maura?

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Friday, 21 October 2005 12:48 (eighteen years ago) link

i can do it! i'm working until seven and have to be back at the office at nine on sunday, but i'd love to go.

maura (maura), Friday, 21 October 2005 14:18 (eighteen years ago) link

if you're on the uws, morbs, then just go south! no problem!

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 21 October 2005 15:06 (eighteen years ago) link

I meant the UES, actually.

Isn't there some big sports bar on lower Ave B or C? I was there on a weeknight, and it didn't seem too bad. Other alternatives?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 21 October 2005 15:20 (eighteen years ago) link

les would be no problem, tho i can't think of anyplace with adequate television.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 21 October 2005 16:11 (eighteen years ago) link

The one I was thinking of is Croxley Ale House on Ave B nr 2nd St, but I have no idea what the Sat nite crush is like. Any others?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 21 October 2005 17:31 (eighteen years ago) link

there's a place on a and 1st called jp wards that's normally pretty empty. two decent-sized tvs.

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Friday, 21 October 2005 17:35 (eighteen years ago) link

that's still pretty early, i doubt it'll be that crowded. you guys make the call.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 21 October 2005 18:01 (eighteen years ago) link

JP Wardes OK w/ me...

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 21 October 2005 18:20 (eighteen years ago) link

ok i'm there, 8ish.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 21 October 2005 19:35 (eighteen years ago) link

7:50 in case Al Lopez throws out the first ball. (He'll take awhile)

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 21 October 2005 20:01 (eighteen years ago) link

awesome, I'm there! Game 1, bitches!!

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 21 October 2005 22:02 (eighteen years ago) link

this will be fun! joe is coming, and so is my co-worker kristen!

maura (maura), Saturday, 22 October 2005 18:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Morbius I have the awful feeling that somehow you were at the bar watching the game and I didn't realize it was you.

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 23 October 2005 06:45 (eighteen years ago) link

haha, yeah I was the redhead clown in the glasses. Who the heck were you? (ppl need to do the pseudonyms w/ the intros...my fault too, but "I'm Dr Morbius" does sound pretty dumb)

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 23 October 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Jesus, what a foul-up! I was unshaven, with an AFL-CIO hat on. That's just terrible. Well, how about planning for a Game 4 meet-up when we can introduce ourselves like ladies and gentlemen?

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 23 October 2005 18:55 (eighteen years ago) link

If there IS a Game 4! *rimshot*

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 24 October 2005 12:10 (eighteen years ago) link

i can't make game four - too pure night at the mercury lounge.

hstencil (hstencil), Monday, 24 October 2005 15:08 (eighteen years ago) link

btw Stenc, Bo Jackson was born 11/30/62:

DO NOT DOUBT ME

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 24 October 2005 15:11 (eighteen years ago) link

ok, how about Game 4? i liked jp smedley's or whatever, but the layout of the bar didn't facilitate the type of roundtable i feel is required.

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 22:04 (eighteen years ago) link

At least we didn't pick last night for FAPpage.

Shall we do Game 4 or hope for 5, and what roundtables are available?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 12:30 (eighteen years ago) link

i can't tonight -- going to see jarhead!

Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 12:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh c'mon, like Sam Mendes isn't gonna fuck THAT up royally! Some priorities...

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 14:39 (eighteen years ago) link

going to see rogers sisters/young people tonight at mercury lounge, suspiciously near j.p. warde's. if they have re-entry, and the game is close, i might just take off for a bit.

hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 16:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, I'll be staying near home then, ie trying to stay awake. (and I do hope Gyllenhaal and Sarsgaard make history by also starring in the porn ripoff of Jarhead.)

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 16:48 (eighteen years ago) link

Since some of us dropped the ball on Game 4 (hello, JARHEAD and TOO PURE NIGHT), we should do something flagrantly excessive in the offseason to compensate, like celebrate the BBWAA not electing anybody to the HOF (I don't even remember who's newly eligible). I want to hear all of Trace's Rosa Parks story.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 28 October 2005 13:04 (eighteen years ago) link

There needs to be a fucking celebration for the Yankee hiring of LARRY FUCKING BOWA that's for damn sure!

David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 28 October 2005 13:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Shit!

David R. (popshots75`), Friday, 28 October 2005 13:08 (eighteen years ago) link

four months pass...
New Yorkers: WBC-watching, somewhere, on Saturday at 10pm for the semifinal, or the final Monday night? (Saturday at 3 is perhaps too old-man for this crowd...) Don't make me email you individually. The Callbox? that place we watched WS Game 1?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 March 2006 16:10 (eighteen years ago) link

that's what I've been wantin to ask you!

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 20 October 2006 18:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Friday, 20 October 2006 19:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Whatever you mean, maybe the answer is when that Mellencamp earworm leaves my head?

GENTLEMEN: WHERE CAN I BUY AN OFFICIAL LEAGUE BALL IN NEW YORK CITY? THAT PLACE UNDER MSG IS SOLD OUT AND WHAT AM I SUPPOUSED TO HAVE TOMMY LASORDA SIGN IF NOT AN OFFICIAL LEAGUE BALL?

If you fuck with Jimmy Mod, you call down the thunder (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Tuesday, 24 October 2006 22:18 (seventeen years ago) link

have him sign a copy of XY.

If there's a Game 6 (Undressing Kenny), it will be on Saturday. longest night of the year (clocks back one hour). Just sayin'.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 25 October 2006 18:39 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm going to be in New York this weekend, and I'd be all for Saturday. I've got a funny feeling they'll still be playing in St. Louis at that point, regardless of outcome.

(Can we cajole R4posa into coming?)

govern yourself accordingly (dayan), Thursday, 26 October 2006 14:16 (seventeen years ago) link

cool, DC! I'm fine with that (it may still be Game 4).

if Alligator Lounge is OK, fine. I read Jay Jaffe of Prospectus sayin he watched last weekend at, ha, 7B.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 26 October 2006 14:34 (seventeen years ago) link

well IF there's a game on Saturday, who's in? default location?

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 27 October 2006 15:38 (seventeen years ago) link

figuring on the 4th Ave bar for most of tonight

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 23 October 2010 13:39 (thirteen years ago) link

that bar is kinda terrible young-Brooklyn-hets meetup; usta be the lesbian Cattyshack.

but yes, I am available for the WS.

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 04:17 (thirteen years ago) link

thinking of arriving at Wburg's Alligator Bar around 9:15-9:30 for the remainder

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 30 October 2010 23:27 (thirteen years ago) link

six years pass...

if i leave work at 5:35, i'm puzzling over whether i should head for a bar or home to see the rest of HOU-NYY

ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 17 October 2017 15:17 (six years ago) link

two weeks pass...

has anyone tried to watch this WS in a bar in Manhattan or Brooklyn? i'm looking for a non-Halloween experience tonight.
