Go Blues.

2009 Ducks Baseball, pittsburgh NABA, South Oakland Ducks Baseball

To the rest of the Ducks blog staff, don’t stop jobbing the Gray Bats, while I keep the Blues posts updated.

This weekend we put aside our petty differences.

Memorial Day, 4th of July, whatever. Either way the Confederacy does not recognize these holidays…

In my search for a score book I cam across a game from a couple years back, a Ducks game featuring Rob Swanger, Jeremy Barchie and mysefl.

Swanger was 3-4 with 2 doubles and a triple, 5 rbi.
Barchie was 2-3 with 2 rbi, pitched 5 innings allowing o earned and beaning two batters
I probably kept score and padded my stats with a 3-4 performance. (all singles to right field – no doubt)
the game was a 15-4 Ducks victory, and was the last time Barchie, Swanger and Gwin played for the same team.

This weekend we don the powder blues along with the latest installment of the Pittsburgh Blues.

You got the Blues.

Motivation

Uncategorized

At Pittsburgh Central Catholic us basketball coaches like to post ridiculous quotes directed at our team by opponents in the locker room as motivation. I think I will do the same thing here. Only instead of posting them in a locker room I will use this blog to motivate the Ducks.

The following comments were made on the Bulldogs Blog:

  • Go Go Gray Bats writes, “Hey, we’re 1-7, not 1-8! And it’ll be 2-8 after the Gray Bats a’la orange some duck next Monday. That’ll be a Memorial day to remember, Im sure.”
  • Sorosky chimes in with, “Paul Altmyer will throw zeros versus the Ducks. And the Rebels sent me a detailed pitching report of Homa. The Gray Bats will score more runs than the Ducks…. Gauranteed”

Come on Gray Bats……I usually root for you guys, but the Ducks are gonna have to stomp on you this Memorial Day.

Terminator Salvation…

Uncategorized
In the wake of the devastating news that the Sarah Connor Chronicles has been canceled, Terminator Salvation is set to be released this Friday.

S.C.C. was not very well written ( like I have room to talk) and often made little sense due to incoherent or underdeveloped storylines that I kept waiting to be resolved or perpetuated at a quicker pace instead of reverting into the “John Connor is a teenager who saves the world but still has issues with his mom just like other teenagers” sub plots that took away from the “Is john going to have robot sex with the girl terminator, and what is going on with Skynet, the redhed T-1000, and how are they going to explain the paradox they have created with the various loops in time and space.

(she’s a robot)

That stuff that was more pressing to me. Specifically the show’s treatment of the different rifts in time, and how the rules of the reality of the show were established and exposed on a weekly basis, I feel like the writers must have cheated, or just never got the chance to convince me they had a plan that would at least make sense within the time travel rules of the Terminator world.


But it was entertaining, and as a sci-fi fan (a huge supporter of any post-apocalypictic/time travel story and the first two Terminator films) who is without cable the show provided a much anticipated hour of robot filled destraction that i didn’t have to stream on my laptop to enjoy.

I’m going to see Terminator Salvation this weekend when I have some down time in A.C. and Strom is doing a memorium on the S.C.C. on his web show, and I am going to try to help him out with that if I have a chance.

thanks for reading.

Jesse Smith could have killed the terminators himself.

Quack,

Game 10 Recap: What’s Fair is Foul and Foul is Fair. Ducks 4, Bulldogs 2

2009 Ducks Baseball, NABA, pittsburgh NABA, South Oakland Ducks Baseball

It was a batte of Shakespearean proportions as Mantis (1-0) won his pitching debut for the South Oakland Ducks of the North Side (7-3), out-dueling NABA great, starting pitcher Dan “Dr. Venkman” Morgan (1-1) of the Bulldogs (3-4), to help the Ducks earn a hard-fought 4-2 victory over their foils in the Campbells Conference.
