  1. Almost like a free inning after the 2-4un home run, then blew it with bases loaded, Kinda the story of this 24 team so far,
  2. This looks more like the Rangers from a couple of weeks ago. I guess I'm gonna have to get in the car and drive around with the staticky radio to get them back on track.
  3. I have used hot rails and cool rails in the past in combo on a strat, and liked them. I had a hot rail in the bridge and cool rail at the neck. But I didn't really know shit then, not that I do now, haven't plugged it up in years. Ty Tabor of King's X had vintage rails on one of his sig guitars, more of a single coilish sound, more noiseless and not shitty like lace sensors. The Squier is probably routed for humbuckers already. The easy thing to do nowdays is buy a pre-installed pickguard and just solder it all to the output jack, done deal. They used to have deals for about $65 for the set when I was looking and nearly bought one.
  4. Ain't tryna jinx it. maybe listening to games on statickyass car radio that I can only hear play by play on about 25% of the time is good luck.
  5. All they gotta do is win out until the break to get back to .500 ball. Easy...
  6. Not a fan of their 'que, but I do really like their dry rub wings with their bbq sauce for dipping. It has become a frequent night time thing. I like getting a big yellow cup to add to my fine drinkware collection as well. I think they smoke the wings and freeze them, then reheat them in a hotass pizza oven. They come out so crispy outside and tender and juicy inside, not your traditional hot wing. Great stuff.
  7. Second longest winning streak of the summer.
  8. Seager was apparently holding the Rangers back.
  9. Depressing.
  10. Man, the Rangers just seem to always catch teams at the wrong time...which is when they are playing the Rangers.
  11. Good eye, Leody.
  12. Thanks, I'll give it a try, but I don't think I've ever been able to pick that one up past Waco in my vehicle. I've driven back many times from D/FW listening to it on the way back to Bell County and had it crap out well before I get back.
  13. So, does anyone here every resort to listening to Rangers games on the radio? This season I've been on the road for at least parts of games way more than ordinary. For a while I was finding the game on 1260 am out of Austin. But now when I tune in it's playing Mexican music instead, either another station has overpowered it or they changed formats. Where the hell is there a reliable radio station left between Austin and Waco that airs most Rangers games? The Waco stations are all talk bullshit now, no games, and I'm really struggling to pick the games up. Between that and all the streaming horseshit it has been incredibly frustrating. Fortunately, I can catch this one at home and fn' relax for once. Keeping this win streak going would be nice.
  14. Gotta give him credit for plugging away, playing ball and not going all Johnny Football. He seems to get it, as far as working, learning and earning his continued time the league.

    The Beach Boys

    Finally saw the new-ish Beach Boys documentary on Disney. It was a pleasant watch for the music, but total bullshit as a doc, leaving out most of the controversy and tragedy, as well as the real reunion they had a little while back. They even totally skipped the Kokomo period, which frankly I didn't mind so much, but it's definitely a big part of the story. It is sad that there is still not a legit Beach Boys doc, which would be like some kind of epic Greek tragedy,
  16. Gettin' in that groooooove...
  17. Fakeass news ain't nothin' new.
  18. Gray is scrappy and talented but so up and down. I often wonder if he would be better as a short reliever.
  19. Their good stuff written by the bass chick is strong, worth staying in rotation. The overall depth of the catalog is not that good, other than of course they kick ass at covers,
  20. So, that whole world series thing last year was just a dream, right? No fn' way these guy were a part of anything like that.
  21. I liked that tune a lot, Nuge and Mike. Will research more.
  22. Kirby Yates has been good, except he hardly ever has save opportunities.
  23. Come one, guys, come back and steal this one!
  24. I'm way behind on my youtubes, but I noticed recently there is a new John Ford podcast they are trickling out. Definitely down for that one.
