nice job by the yanks in general this season and i can't wait for some playoff baseball, but did anyone read the a-rod story in sports illustrated? intriguing giambi facts that make me love him even more:

Torre's trademark placidity ended, though, when Giambi asked to talk to Torre in Seattle. "Skip," Giambi told Torre, "it's time to stop coddling him."

For all the scorn heaped upon Giambi for his ties to the BALCO steroid scandal, he is a strong clubhouse voice because he plays with a passion that stirs teammates and even opponents. This season, for instance, he reprimanded his former Oakland A's teammate, Orioles shortstop Miguel Tejada, for occasionally showing up late to games out of frustration over another losing Baltimore season. "You're better than that," he told Tejada. So Giambi's gripe about Rodriguez sounded an alarm with Torre.

Before Giambi went to Torre, he had scolded Rodriguez after a 13-5 win in Boston on Aug. 19. Irked that Rodriguez left four runners on base in the first three innings against a shaky Josh Beckett, Giambi thought A-Rod needed to be challenged. "We're all rooting for you and we're behind you 100 percent," Giambi recalls telling Rodriguez, "but you've got to get the big hit."

"What do you mean?" was Rodriguez's response, according to Giambi. "I've had five hits in Boston."

"You f------ call those hits?" Giambi said. "You had two f------ dinkers to rightfield and a ball that bounced over the third baseman! Look at how many pitches you missed!"

barry beck's ryder cup preview...

2006-09-21T13:45:00.000-04:00

The US Ryder Cup team has not won a match since 1999 when Justin Leonard's 45 foot putt on the 17th green in Brookline caped an improbable comeback and sent Andre the Giant and Barry Beck into jubilant celebration. Andre and Barry stormed the the 18th green with the over served crowd on a beautiful day in Beantown after Payne Stewart, as the true sportsman he was, conceded his insignificant match to Monty (or as the Brookline Crowd referred to him as Tuna for his close appearance to Bill Parcels). When Andre and Barry got to the green they were showered with champagne sprayed by some of the US players, caddies and Captain Crenshaw. Big Ben Crenshaw left the grounds of The Country Club the previous night saying, "I'm a big believer in Fate and I have a feeling that we will win this thing." Sure enough the US team orchestrated quite possibly the best comeback in sports history. Perhaps it was the overzealous celebration that afternoon in Brookline that has motivated Team Euro to improbable wins at the Belfry in 2002 and Oakland Hills at the last matches in 2004. Both times David slayed Goliath as a bunch of Euros beat teams led by Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson and celebrated with the same enthusiasm that came over the Andre the Giant, Barry Beck, and the rest of the US team in 1999.

The US arrived in Ireland this week with a renewed perspective on the competition having learned from a litany of their mistakes in the previous two matches. With four Ryder Cup rookies and a core of experienced veterans including Tiger Woods who appears more comfortable as a team leader for these matches the US team is considered the underdog. The K-Club golf venue they are playing should favor the Americans as it is an Arnoald Palmer designed track in the mold of a traditional North Amercian woodland course. This should help the Yanks who will not be forced to play the traditional Irish links course on European soil.

If the Americans did not have enough motivation at the K-Club from all the naysayers and their recent poor performances in the matches they need not look further than the Irish tabloids this week. The Dubliner Magazine this week went on to post a story about the American WABs (Wives and Brides) in saying, "Most American golfers are married to women who cannot keep their clothes on in public," the story stated. "Is it too much to ask that they leave them at home for the Ryder Cup?" They posted a topless picture they claimed to be the beautiful Elin Nordegren, Tiger's wife next to the story. Further, the story described Amy Lepard, wife of U.S. Ryder Cup player Chad Campbell, as a "large-chested singer." It said David Toms' wife, Sonya, wears a bikini around the house because it's "liberating." And it said Jim Furyk's wife, Tabitha, wasn't interested in him until he became a multimillionaire. These comments clearly incited the underdogs and should help motivate the US Squad.

Unfortunately, Andre and Barry will not be at the K-Club the help support the underdog Americans in this year's Ryder Cup. Nonetheless, they will follow the telecast of the broadcast and should the US win, jubilation rivaling 1999 in Brookline will follow.

sorry for the absence, but i've been on a drinking binge these last few weeks. first things first, lots of love goes out to loyal reader and player/coach reg dunlop who has officially moved back to norcal. reg dunlop (formerly reggie roby) was one of the most devoted readers of fredeeky and was everybody's favorite drinking companion and funny maker. we're already missing him here in new york, but also know that he will be dropping some s.f.c. reports on us from time to time. now he is closer to his beloved barry bonds and is at the epicenter of the grateful dead cover band scene. so expect to find him noodling to dire wolf in the forrest if you ever come to the bay area. that alone sounds like a pretty good reason to hit san fran if you ask me.

ball tampering? tea interval?

2006-08-21T19:28:00.000-04:00

On Sunday, an umpire presiding at a high-profile game between England and Pakistan, ruled that, in his belief, Pakistani players had been tampering with the ball and he told Pakistani players of his suspicion, awarding England five bonus runs, or points.

By way of protest, the Pakistanis refused to leave their dressing room after a scheduled break for tea. The Australian umpire, Darrell Hair, a person known for contentious rulings against some Asian teams, then removed the “bails” — those little wooden bits that fit horizontally across the top of the larger wooden stakes called stumps — denoting that Pakistan had forfeited the game.

The Pakistan team, nonetheless, walked back onto the field of play. But by this time the umpires had walked off, having ruled that Pakistan’s no-show constituted a terminal offense. Game to England — the first time in 129 years of so-called Test matches between national teams that a game had been forfeited in this way.

Although Mr. Harley fully acknowledged that “everybody thought I was crazy” when he turned to bagpipes in the early 1960’s, he became a frequent sideman on records and in concerts with saxophonists like Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Dexter Gordon and Sonny Stitt, with the trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie and with the flutist Herbie Mann.

ON THE MORNING OF AUGUST 1, 1966, not long before summer classes at the University of Texas at Austin were about to let out for lunch, an architectural engineering major named Charles Whitman arrived at the Tower dressed as a maintenance man. He would be described the following day in the Austin American as “a good son, a top Boy Scout, an excellent Marine, an honor student, a hard worker, a loving husband, a fine scout master, a handsome man, a wonderful friend to all who knew him—and an expert sniper.” The footlocker he wheeled behind him contained three rifles, two pistols, and a sawed-off shotgun, as well as a cache of supplies that suggested he planned to stay awhile. After a receptionist switched on an elevator that Whitman had been trying in vain to operate, he smiled and said, “Thank you, ma’am. You don’t know how happy that makes me.”

LAGUNA BEACH, Calif. — For his nightly role in the sprawling Pageant of the Masters, Michael Ziegler disrobes and stands patiently for 45 minutes while a makeup artist paints his body silver from head to toe.

Yet after all that preparation, Mr. Ziegler, a 53-year-old airline customer service representative, goes onstage and does nothing. For 90 seconds, he stands utterly still — with one leg and arm outstretched, like the confederate across from him — in a re-creation of “The Dancers,” a bronze sculpture by a largely forgotten artist.

Is the tableau vivant passé? Not for the 155,000 fans who flock to this beachside town each summer for the pageant. For them, the two-month extravaganza — a $4.1 million production that includes sets and lighting for nearly 40 art pieces on eight staging areas with live narration and orchestra — weaves a magic that is a welcome palliative to the freneticism of modern-day entertainment.

5. Sripraphai
Sripraphai has come a long way since its early days as the no-frills holy grail of New York Thai food. Expansions and renovations have brought a beautiful patio out back, replete with burbling fountain and leafy apple tree, and actual (if not Wallpaper-worthy) décor. The takeout menu gives a phonetic spelling (see-pra-pie), and servers ask, unprompted, if you’d like “Thai spicy.” Happily, these new and somewhat self-conscious developments have had no deleterious effects on the food, which is, indeed, Thai spicy, but also multilayered and nearly impossible to stop eating.

"the sicker of the young women also had been chewing half a mothball a day for two months"...

2006-08-01T14:03:00.000-04:00

BOSTON, Massachusetts (Reuters) -- The 18-year-old French woman was hospitalized with scaly skin on her legs and hands, appearing unsteady and mentally sluggish, doctors said.

They found the condition puzzling, especially since the woman's twin sister displayed similar, but less severe, symptoms and there was no family history of the problem, the doctors reported in this week's New England Journal of Medicine that

Several days later, doctors discovered the cause: a bag of mothballs stashed in her hospital room.

The teenagers had been using the mothballs to get high, inhaling air from the bag for about 10 minutes a day because classmates had recommended it. The sicker of the young women also had been chewing half a mothball a day for two months.

no one is more hard core than barry beck. it's not even august and he is already all over the rangers' preseason rosters. no one loves hockey more than barry, so we should all observe and respect his knowledge. thanks for sharing barry, the rest of the report will be found in the comments section since it is so huge.

Hockey is the last thing on the minds of the media this time of year. However, before you know it the Rangers will be up in Burlington, VT for their annual camp and in less than 2 months pre-season hockey will be back at MSG (Sept. 20th is the first preseason game in MSG). The front office has made a few interesting changes to the roster that should help this team develop after the surprising 2005 - 2006 campaign. However, sadly the longtime color voice of the Rangers and all of the NHL for that matter, John Davidson has moved on to take a position as General Manager and President of the St. Louis Blues. Dave Checketts group who recently purchased the franchise wisely hired JD to take over the struggling franchise. JD was an icon in the garden broadcast booth and will be sorely missed among the media, players, MSG staff and long time fans. We wish JD all the luck and hope that someday JD will be back in the 7th Ave. side broadcast booth.

Canada reports losses of $7.5 billion each year, with $1.4 billion lost because of decreased occupational productivity caused by hangover-like symptoms, while Australian workers ring up $3.8 billion yearly and New Zealanders $331 million.

A 2000 study performed at the University of California, San Francisco medical center reviewed more than 30 years of medical reports on alcohol and found that American hangovers add up to a whopping $148 billion in lost wages, a $2,000 average per working adult in the country.

i am sending ed orgeron all my jewelry...

2006-07-12T10:32:00.001-04:00

This is an account of Ed Orgeron's first team meeting at Ole Miss, as related by one of the players to another student: (Orgeron was USC's Asst Head Coach and DL Coach)

"Apparently, Coach Orgeron called his first team meeting the other day. I was told that in about a 15 minute period, he cussed and yelled more than most men do in their entire lives."

"He came in to the locker room to his new team and stood there staring at his team. He started to talk in his strong Cajun accent and immediately began yelling at his new team that this 4-7 s**t isn't going to cut it. He talked about how the last game he coached was the national championship and screamed that it was a g*d d**n embarassment to win anything less than 10 games. He went on yelling about how he recruited Leinart and Bush and that that he didn't cometo Ole Miss to have a g*d d**n losing seasons or even to go to this bull s**t Cotton Bowl and get g*d d**n thirteenth place. Thirteenth place is bull s**t and he came here to win."

"He said that his team was going to play defense and hit hard. G*d d****t his team was going to play with g*d d***n passion and they were going to whip some a***s. He then passed a box around the room and said he wanted every g*d d**n earring in the room in the box. He isn't going to have any f*****g p***y girls on his team and wanted every piece of bull s**t earring in that box right now.""With the team stunned faced with about as opposite a person as one could have to Cutcliffe, Coach O started to walk towards the door. He looked back at the team as they passed around the box and said, "I'm going to walk out of here right now, and when I come back in here, I'm going to have my shirt off, and I want everyone of you motherf*****s to have your shirts off too."

"He walked out and everyone, confused, started taking their shirts off. Sure enough, O walked back in, bigger than alot of the guys on the team, without his shirt on. He started yelling and telling the team that they needed to get loud. He said, "When I point to this side of the room, I want you to say 'Ole Miss.' When I point to this side, I want you to say, 'Wild Boys.'" Standing there with no shirt on with every guy in the room shirtless, started pointing to each side of the room. Half the team would yell, "Ole Miss" while the other would yell "Wild Boys." Apparently it got pretty crazy and guys started flipping chairs, yelling, and throwing cooler acrossthe room while chanting Ole Miss... Wild Boys. "

"He then stopped and said, "One more thing. If any of you motherf*****s thinks you can take me, you come up here and get a piece of me right now." He gave everyone an opportunity to come up and fight him and said, "That's what I thought," and walked out of the room."

Lessons learned

1. Fabric paint is a pain in the ass to deal with, and must be applied with a heavy hand if sharp edges on lines are desired. It would have probably helped if I had not worn and washed the unitard before painting, as that caused the fabric to pill somewhat, making it much harder to get the paint down into the fabric.
2. If you superglue something to a painted surface, you're not gluing to the item itself, but to the paint. I should have waited the specified 7 days for maximum chip resistance (which means maximum hardness and curing) before trying to glue the el-wire to it.
3. No matter how hard you try, the colors will never match exactly. Don't obsess about it; do the very best you can and quit worrying.
4. I got some slack cut because this was my first masquerade. It'll be tougher to win something next year...and it was suggested that, while I could re-enter this costume, doing so very many times would not be wise. Now, all I have to do is come up with another idea...

Few teams relied on one player more than the Rangers did with Jaromir Jagr last season. So yesterday, the Rangers signed the veteran forward Brendan Shanahan to help shoulder the burden.

With Shanahan, who has 598 career goals, and Jagr, who has 591, the Rangers have the two leading career goal scorers among active players.

In many societies, the term "child bride" calls to mind impetuous sweethearts, a ladder cautiously positioned beneath a bedroom window, a silent kiss in the moonlight and a young couple making an anxious getaway to a justice of the peace. But this is not a ready image the world over. In Afghanistan, a child bride is very often just that: a child, even a preteen, her innocence betrothed to someone older, even much, much older.

hit the delmarva peninsula hard over the weekend. lounged on the beach, ate some seafood, snorted fat lines of old bay seasoning, bbq'd some johnsonville brats and got a lot of resting/reading in. all in all a perfect way to celebrate the fourth. also checked out the fireworks from the roof last night in the city, which was another highlight. observe and respect the fourth of july...no exceptions.

In their most lopsided defeat in almost two years, the Yankees were humiliated Tuesday night by the Cleveland Indians at Jacobs Field, 19-1. They have 81 more games to vault into a playoff spot, which looks more and more difficult to reach.

Former Judge Donald D. Thompson, a veteran of 23 years on the bench, is on trial on charges he used a penis pump on himself in the courtroom while sitting in judgment of others.

Over the past few days, the jurors have watched a defense attorney and a prosecutor pantomime masturbation. A doctor has lectured on the lengths the defendant was willing to go to enhance his sexual performance.

The white-handled sexual device sits before the jury box for hours at a time. Occasionally an attorney picks it up and squeezes the handle, demonstrating the "sh-sh" sound of air rushing through the contraption's plastic tubing.
