Yea i would love to go see the Padres, my cousin lives in San Diego and i was there last summer while the Mets where in town but i had to much to see with too little time i couldnt make it. Hopfully one. Wat i would really love to do before my time is up in life is just grab a bunch of my buddies and just follow the Mets. Rent a a bus or something and just follow them. Even if its just the east coast.

That would be pretty cool to do, I'd be willing to follow the Padres to all their NL West games and any game they played here in S.D. but that would be stupid expensive, so maybe in a decade or so

OMG u guys really wanna get a laugh, read this

Quote:

A 13-year-old girl touring Fenway Park on a school trip was attacked by a resident red-tailed hawk that drew blood from her scalp Thursday. She wasn't seriously hurt, but some observers saw an omen for a certain New York Yankees slugger in the attack at the home of the Boston Red Sox. The girl's name is Alexa Rodriguez.

Vince Jennetta, a teacher who chaperoned her class trip from Memorial Boulevard Middle School in Bristol, Conn., told The Boston Globe that Alexa is "a little shaken, but OK."

The hawk was perched on a railing in the upper deck behind home plate while the group toured the stadium. The hawk flew at the girl and swooped with its talons extended, scratching her scalp. A single egg lay in the hawk's nearby nest in an overhang near the stadium's press booth. The nest and egg were removed at the direction of state wildlife officials

i honestly couldnt stop laughing when i read this...esp. when they say "the omen"

Haha, yea I saw that on Mike and Mike in the morning. Made me laugh, Alexa Rodriguez, what are the odds of that happening? I mean damn.

Bliss · 04-04-2008, 06:18 PM

they had video footage of it on Mike and Mike? That would have been classic to see.

blueovalboy7 · 04-04-2008, 06:21 PM

There wasn't video per-say, though somehow a photographer was quick enough to catch this:

I couldn't not share that, first time I heard the story her name didn't ring a bell, but the second time I saw the story I was like ooooooooooooooooh, makes sense now.

Sounds like the making of a good match-up, I'll have to watch on MLB.com gameday... That is until the Padres game comes on at 7:05 pst.

End of the 2nd and SP Scott Olsen has thrown about 50 pitches. NOT GOOD.

3-0 Pirates

BTW After three full games, the Marlins batting average is .211 YIPPIE!
