For the next six days I'm going to be out of town on a little trip, so main page posting will be minimal, if not entirely non-existent. Fortunately there are few better times for a baseball blogger to neglect his website than the middle of February (unless you're a Giants blogger, in which case October's as good a time to go away as any), so you won't be missing much.
Have fun, but don't go too crazy. You never know when you're being watched. Or, for that matter, who's doing the watching. Hmmm...

We are so going to have a party.

As long as you drink quality beer
Jeff Sullivan - February 20, 2008
My twenty first is this weekend
Choose my alcohol for me.Robert - February 20, 2008
Try one of everything here
except for the stuff Corco posted.http://lookoutlanding.com/story/2007/2/26/19527/0075
Jeff Sullivan - February 20, 2008
Don't listen to Jeff
Just drink whatever your friends buy you because free alcohol is the best alcohol (within reason). If you do it right, you shouldn't want to drink for about a week. Then let the delicious beer flow.Edgar for Pres - February 20, 2008
If I were being serious, that would be my advice
21st birthdays don't earn style points. Drink anything and everything. Then refer to your awful hangover in the future when people ask why you've turned into a total beer snob.Jeff Sullivan - February 21, 2008
Word.
By an Irish Car Bomb, because your 21st birthday is the only time it is ever acceptable.Aaron Campeau - February 21, 2008
Or buy an Irish Car Bomb,, even.
Aaron Campeau - February 21, 2008
Correct
21st birthdays are about quantity, not quality. If you remember any part of the evening, you've done something wrong. If you didn't do something embarrassing, you've done something wrong.pdb - February 21, 2008
ugh this was terrible advice
Robert - February 23, 2008
That means it was excellent advice!
Matthew - February 23, 2008
I'm not sure Brett
was a big fan of the night night text messages.Robert - February 23, 2008
Interestingly enough
I had something like 16 drinks on my 21er, and wasn't even hung over the next day.Now, almost 5 years later, I have two beers and I feel it the next day. Ah, my poor, wretched liver.
Phil Hatzenbuehler - February 21, 2008
I know who's in charge.
So I'm safe unless he abuses his power. Which actually wouldn't be surprising. But I'm not worried.The rest of you should probably watch out. Especially the really dumb ones.
BrettJMiller - February 21, 2008
Welllllll that gave it away
Jeff Sullivan - February 21, 2008
I'm not sure.
Lots of people make fun of dumb people around here, I can think of a good four or five that I'm tight enough with to not worry about if it's one of them in control.But feel free to delete my comment if you think it hurts. I just don't think it reveals much more than your original post.
But I've got no ego about my comments, so get rid of it if you'd like, it's probably more fun if people have no clue.
BrettJMiller - February 21, 2008
I'm just joking around, I don't really care
I trust you guys enough not to go batshit crazy anyway.Jeff Sullivan - February 21, 2008

I was thinking about nuking all AK1984 comments and leaving up only the interpretation.Would make sense.
Devin - February 21, 2008
As I have just found out
Deleting comments makes any replies go in strange places. You guys need the edit button.Graham MacAree - February 21, 2008
Dude!
My first deleted post! I'm as proud as a brand new papa.Just for the record... I posted a long series of ['s with the word "new" and followed by ]'s. Just to mess with the new comment search that many people use.
johnbai - February 21, 2008
greatly appreciated
and now it looks like I'm pissed off at Jeff for going on vacation, which is a nice bonus.pdb - February 21, 2008
Hmmm. Lessee...

"Justin Timberlake will portray...
fictional Hooks player Carlton Garrett in the upcoming movie "The Open Road." The 27-year-old pop star tried to meet with players of the Houston Astros' Double-A team in Austin recently, but schedules didn't align."
This is what baseball movies have come to? I never thought I'd miss Kevin Costner's acting ability.
OldFan - February 21, 2008
Um, wow
"Justin wants to portray what it's like playing for the Hooks, playing for an Astros minor league team and playing at Whataburger Field," Hooks President J.J. Gottsch said.Yeah, I can just bet that, once Justin got to be a big megastar, he thought to himself "Man, now's the time for that vanity project about Double A Ball in Texas I've been wanting to do since I was a kid!"

From ESPN about the O's
This early in spring training, even minor discomforts will get a player a few days of extra rest. That's especially true if you are George Sherrill, the expected closer for the Orioles who came to Baltimore in the recent Erik Bedard trade.Sherrill's hamstring tightened up on him during fielding drills and Orioles manager Dave Trembley told reporters the strain is mild. Sherrill is listed as day-to-day.
Sherrill still expects to make his Orioles debut in Thursday's exhibition game against the Florida Marlins.
"Thursday is the most important," Sherrill told The Baltimore Sun. "I'm really not too worried about the next few days. Just make sure that I get it completely healthy and don't do anything stupid trying to come back too quick and hurt it worse."
