[funkster]

Bueller?

[AlexV]

Are those fastballs Lilly's throwing at 76 MPH?

[AlexV]

Nope, that was a fastball at 84...

[jstraw]

Lilly is scaring me.

[funkster]

87

[jstraw]

I think the thread title has thrown all the SOI's off the scent.

[funkster]

How so?

I don't give a rat's ass if the dumb son of a bitch does a jig as long as he catches the damn ball!

He caught it so he can hop. He flubs it. It's the hop's fault.

He's not going to break that habit and concentrating on not hopping is a worse idea than just concentrating on the ball.

BTW, Jazz Fest report out: Saw Papa Grows Funk, Davell Crawford with help from Jon Cleary and Dr. John, funky Meters, Simon & Garfunkel and My Morning Jacket.

Crawford on keyboard, Cleary on guitar and Dr John on piano was fun. Meters disappointed which is the norm for JazzFest. Simon & Garfunkel sounded old and worn so we left after the 4 tune to see the remainder of My Morning Jacket who were great.
