So that's your dark secreat other than why you have a London number while located in Leics.

 

What's the attraction of rounders palyed by men in pajamas anyway?

[russdev]

lol

 

The telephone number well i hire a flat in central London that is manned by a monkey who is paid in bananas.....

 

ok i lie it is number that goes to my skype account...

 

Dark secret not so much dark secret do a search on the forum ...

 

Same reason people watch bunch blokes in white pyjamas with bats

 

Ironic as most uk baseball fans love cricket but i cant stand it....

 

Nothing better having a beer watching a game.... Game of skill and tactics.....

 

But then i watch lot of American sport.... I get lot more sleep thanks to internet and mlb.tv through...

 

The ball went straight to bleachers and then promptly fell into line of people queuing for hot dog....

 

But then all was made ok when commentators in there spot wipe out in which they wipe out member of spectators with on screen pen usually for some silly action they did. In today’s game they wiped out whole of the bleachers stand for not catching the ball

Problem is this season is going to be overshadowed by off field stuff that is happening with bonds, mlb and whole drugs issue in general...

You know Russ, you're starting to sound like an American sportscaster .

(Ugh! Did I just use that word.)

[russdev]

lol oh yes

 

Would you believe it at one time there was talk of me doing a American sports show on a local radio station...

 

Could be worst I could sound like those horrible American 80's djs you know ones use to sound like adam curry and talk 100mph....

 

Don't worry i could talk American sport all day long

 

Just been listening to bonds post game interview

 

Question: are you worried about reception you going to get in new york..

 

Bonds: - no don't really care

 

lol Well yes the bloke just broke hank's record heck i would care either....

 

Just same giants lost but we won 2 out of the 3 game series....

 

oh dear I'm sounding like American sportscaster again

[ITWombat]

Channel 5 did a short bio of Bonds on their latenight sports program.

 

I liked two placards held up by some 'fans'.

 

'Pitch to Barry'

 

and how about

 

'715*'

 

Ouch!

[russdev]

[russdev]

oh dear i do feel sorry dave flemming the play by play caller on knbr

 

His mic dropping out in middle of the call

 

So people listening to audio all they heard was

 

"Finley runs, the payoff pitch, a swing and a drive! Deep to cent....."

 

then silence....

 

 

oh dear but his comment

 

"thought I made a good call," Flemming said after the game. "But nobody will ever know. . ."
