marioinblack posted:Not sure what you're talking about, guess the joke went over my head. Rick Ankiel was an incredibly hyped Cardinals pitching prospect. He lived up to the hype for the most part. When he was called on to start Game One of the 2000 NLDS opposite Greg Maddux he was leading 6-0 in the third inning until he threw 5 wild pitches and couldn't get out of the inning. In his next start in G2 of the NLCS he threw 5 wild pitches in 20 pitches total before being pulled. His pitching never recovered.

Okay, that HAS to be an error. Congrats, Epilepsy Foundation.

PS - I'm settling up my Cleveland error bill to the Epilepsy Foundation in one lump sum at the end of the Series.

Schwarber with that salamander heater brings back memories of using a shed in the country to lift in January, 2009.

SharkTattoos posted:Perfect. Thanks to both the pancakes. You're welcome. Years ago when I was temporarily back in my hometown I used to lift in a shed in the country that was heated by one of those. It was pretty impressively white trash. My hometown also has boxing classes in the basement of the county lockup, does schoolbus demolition derbies and every year has a boxing match between Jesus and the Easter Bunny. Anyone driving down from Chicago to St. Louis should stop by sometime and just gape in awe. This has been your Illinois south of I-80 chat for the thread.
