Cards are winning 7-4. Bottom of the 5th. Both starters (Ankiel and Maddux) are out of the game.
Latest Cards/Braves score? (I don’t have a tv here, and the radio is on a traditional jazz station.)
Cards win 7-5.
Yay! One game down and two more to win.
Crunchy, you’re right. In Total baseball, they say the 5 year rule started in 1954, but anyone who had previously gotten 100 or more votes was grandfathered.
So, what’s the point of this thread - do we just try to link something strangely off the previous post? Like, the Cards were in the previous post, do I ask which playing card is apparently committing suicide?
Okay, connect the Cards to the Braves (or vice versa).
With only one sports connection.
Not including the playoffs.
Bonus using movies or tv.
Torre managed both…
Hey, struuter, you don’t live in Connecticut, do you? 'Cause I do drive an Intrepid, and I’ve been pretty timid since the accident which, while totalling my last car and leading to my purchase of the Intrepid, left me unscathed, and thus in much better shape than James Dean after his.
Nope. Nebraska. But I have to qualify your driving an Intrepid as opposed to the three Intrepids creeping around my town. (And not just because I like you…)
I have no problem with a careful driver. But these people were (pardon the phrase) lolly-gagging around. Looking in shop windows, fixing make-up, spacing off. Sounds to me like you’re just careful.
lurker, what? You’re going to have to explain this one to me. I’ve stared at cards millions of times and I never caught that suicide thing. Is it a Jack? I’m really curious now and don’t have any cards at hand.
Where were we? Hmmmm. What famous actor who played a Disney villian committed suicide? (I know it’s easy. It’s early.)
The king of hearts is called the suicide king because he appears to have thrust his sword through his head (although it always looked like the blade was BEHIND his head to me - some people are just morbid, I guess).
ok, Legend, now make some sort of connection between that card and some tangent to lead the thread off to…
But that would be WORK…and aren’t we still waiting to hear what famous actor who played a Disney villain committed suicide?
But let’s see. Connecting the Cards to the Braves - nope, I just keep coming up with references to Indian casinos that I know are in poor taste.
I’m going to bed (I really AM unworthy of this thread)!
