TransMonk Old-Timey Member Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and... Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten? Nigel Tufnel: Exactly. Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder? Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where? Marty DiBergi: I don't know. Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do? Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven. Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder. Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder? Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Sweet! I just noticed that the opener on 3/31 is a 4:10 PM first pitch. This means I won't have to take a 1/2 day off from work to catch the game. I can leave at 4 PM and listen to the first hour on XM on my drive home.

Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 ="Frayed Knot"]NINE!!Admit it. You started this thread with that post in mine.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted March 22, 2008 Author Posted March 22, 2008 ]Admit it. You started this thread with that post in mindY'know, as someone who has been a member of this board for a long time and has started a thread similar to this in years past, I strongly object to the implication that I would stoop so low as to begin a countdown for something as sacred as the opening of the baseball season simply to get a laugh at the expense of a fallen politician at a time when his family must be going through ...OK, yeah I did.
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted March 22, 2008 Posted March 22, 2008 your supreme court picture is outdated, Rehnquist and O'Connor are in it.and yeah Centerfield, as soon as i saw this thread yesterday i knew Client #9 would be in it today.
stevejrogers Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Oh I don't give a crap anymore, plus he did wear it at Shea and Val posted The Kid
DocTee Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 I'm shocked--shocked I tell you--that SteveJPinstripe would post such an image.
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 My eyes! My eyes! How could you post that hideous interlocking NY symbol here?
Guest themetfairy Guests Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Steve posted - then erased - homage to Yogi from Monument Park.
stevejrogers Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Then I couldn't Google a nice shot of Yogi wearing his Metly #8 uni, and I even tried a search for that SI shot of Clendennon slapping Berra's hand round first in the 1969 World Series and came up empty.
Guest themetfairy Guests Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Instead of Google, try Zuula or Dogpile. I love Google, but Zuula and Dogpile will give you more returns on your search (including Google results).
