Friday Flashbacks: The Pine Tar Game, Atlanta Olympics Bombing, Birth to the BCS
July 24, 1983: The “pine tar” game, where George Brett hit a two run homer off Goose Gossage, then was called out after Billy Martin protested and Brett was called out for having too much pine tar on the bat, ending the game with a Yankees win. AL President Lee McPhail upheld the Royals’ protest and reinstated the home run, much to the dismay of Billy Martin. The game resumed on August 18, resuming after the home run putting the Royals in the lead, and two outs in the top of the ninth. Martin put Ron Guidry in centerfield and moved Don Mattingly to second base for the top of the ninth. Brett was ejected by McPhail, officially after his home run. Unfortunately, MLB doesn’t allow any video of Brett’s tirade for embedding, so instead, enjoy Johnny Bench, the San Diego Chicken, and the Baseball Bunch re-enacting the pine tar game.

Sergei Federov defects while at the Goodwill Games (1990)
So hockey people, how did this work before the Cold War ended. I know that for the most part Eastern Bloc players could not play in the NHL, but could they still be drafted like Federov was in 1989? It seems like drafting a player would give him a pretty good reason to defect.
July 22nd, 2011 at 2:46 PM

I don’t know how the draft worked for the communist countries but the article said the USSR allowed citizens to play in the NHL at the age of 28. I’m guessing the draft just gives teams rights to the player.

MS,
Teams were free to draft players from the Eastern Block. For example, the Canadiens drafted Tretiak in (I believe) ’83. But until the late 80′s and early 90′s it was essentially a waste of a pick.

I don’t know how the draft worked for the communist countries but the article said the USSR allowed citizens to play in the NHL at the age of 28.
I had trouble scrolling through the article, so I missed that part. But I guess the Soviets figured that they would get the players prime years on the national team and then let the NHL have the remains?

I’m actually starting to think 2008 might be topping the list. Going into the playoffs that year, you just had the feeling it was there year. You NEVER have that feeling as a Cubs fan. Even in ’03 I was skeptical that the players they got in trades would get it done. To have such a great regular season in ’08 and have all that talent in its prime on the roster and then get swept out by the Dodgers of all teams was brutal.
I’ve never heard Wrigley get quieter as fast as it did when James Loney hit that slam into the basket off Dempster. I took a date to that game and she said I looked like someone had shot my parents by the 7th inning.

really? Well, you can’t fuck them without it being a big deal, for one. And if you go out with a grown person who is a virgin, they’re probably fucked in the head in some way or another.
For instance, maybe they had a high school boyfriend who they loved with all their heart (who was secretly gay) who killed himself because he was secretly gay.

I’m not sure of the exact procedue, but I imagine there is some physical backup of sperm after occlusion of the vas deferens.

except that sperm itself isn’t the cause of blue balls. It’s the lack of ejaculation, which still occurs, as long as you remembered to be nice, and it’s not too late, and it’s Wednesday.

but I imagine there is some physical backup of sperm after occlusion of the vas deferens.
I’m not a biologist, but I’m sure it dies and is treated as a waste product by the body. Gets picked up by the blood and cleaned up by the kidneys, etc, etc. Still comes out your peepee.

I can tell you that I really have no desire to have a kid. In all honesty, I can tell you that I’d probably be a pretty shitty parent because time is just not something I like to share with someone that isn’t fucking me.
Don’t bitch at me for my honesty either. At least I’m up front about it.

July 22nd, 2011 at 3:37 PM
I’m sure you are sarcastic… I’m saying that if your balls produced both semen and sperm, when you had a vasectomy, the pressure would continue to build to the point of rupture, every time you had sex. As it is, you can release semen still, which is required for ejaculation, and the sperm (which are not) just have to find their own death/degeneration.

It depends, I used to be friends with benefits with a girl from Chicago who SC reminds me of. She could see through all the bullshit and knew I wasn’t worth her time to be in a relationship or try and have any kind of future with, so we just hooked up whenever she was in town or I was in town. Really cool girl, was very honest up front about what it was and what she expected. I dug that a lot.

unfortunately too late in the post, but why is bullshit necessary? it shouldnt be so important to get laid that you have to have made-up lines/shtick. you go out alone or with your friends, and if you meet someone great. if you don;t, well you leave the way you came and hopefully had a fun time in between..

It’s both. Rookie Blue is a Canadian show that ABC picks up, but they never expressly say in the show that they’re in Canada, or a particular city, but it’s Toronto. That was so they could sell it to America.
I didn’t make up the Grey’s Anatomy for Canadian Cops, some other person did.
