  1. teams charge so much for the home opener (dynamic pricing!) that they schedule a rainout day so they don’t have to refund all that $$$.
  2. saison dupont is like 3 posts up thread
  3. if anyone is interested in 3 tickets for opening day (sec 424), let me know. ran into better seats. paid $561 total and don’t need to recoup 100% of that.
  4. yes, the classic belgian-style known as “amber”
  5. the astros traded for moises alou.
  6. can’t imagine he’s billing too many hours. how many goats even pay taxes?
  7. A couple of fairly inexpensive cards I’ve picked up recently:
  8. he’s still in houston. built a wildly successful company with a business partner and now focuses a ton of time and energy (and cash) on sports collectibles.
  9. I’ve known p.ryan since we were underclassmen at UT and recently visited his house to see his collection in person. it’s really amazing. seeing his stuff and also reading Ball Four and Joe Posnanski’s Baseball 100 last year gave me the itch to get into some vintage cards. as a kid i started with ‘87 topps but always loved the look of the 1971 set. decided i’d try to collect every HoF from that set. took a couple months, but got all the players plus the managers who were elected as players.
  10. I’m in love with the mixed smoked beers six packs from live oak.
  11. he said choose a carrier that does offer ATT sports net. (maybe that’s not possible in lubbock, i have no idea)
  12. had friends in grad school in boston and new haven back in 2003. flew into boston and the 3 of us road tripped to montreal to catch the astros. saw bagwell’s 2,000th hit. place was a huge shit hole.
  13. retired: astrodome, le stade olympique, the vet, ballpark in arlington current: mmp, coors, camden yards, fenway, wrigley, dodger, petco, seattle, new comiskey, nationals, san fran, oakland
  14. drinking a bourbon barrel aged barleywine in my own brewery’s barrel room after a rare shift pouring for a special event. hasn’t made me rich, but beats the fuck outta lawyering for a living.
  15. this post is ridiculous. he’s not even at 2,000 hits yet. i think he’ll get in, but he’s not there yet at age 32 and 1935 hits.
  16. $2M dollar listing and not a single photo of the house.
  17. i’ll be on the judging panel for a few categories
  18. he owns a big chunk of the timberwolves
  19. welp, that was an impressive run. almost 4 months.
  20. RIP Bakfish Brewing in Pearland
  21. he’s horrible. i can handle DJ and Elf, but saad is bottom of the barrel. incredibly, still better than killer.
  22. walked by it today and it sure doesn’t look like it is anywhere close to opening.
  23. Somewhere in the ballpark of 9,000 in the US currently.
  24. i can attest to this…
