Just noticed that of the 3 perfect games, they were thrown against:

-The Mariners, who are notorious for their anemic offense
-The Astros, who are the Astros
-The Rays, whom I'm convinced Joe Maddon has ordered to have at least one hitless game every year.

Not to take anything away from them, of course.


So true on the Rays. Seems like every time I see a no-hitter it's against the Rays.

Not to take anything away from your research, but that's kinda how its always went. You're never gonna see a perfect game against the Yanks or Sox because their offense is too good and can beat you so many different ways. Most teams who get no-hit are the ones with one-dimensional offenses who lack firepower

Well technically, but I was kinda generalizing

Yessir. Take the cake. :D

Not much action in the MLB today... oh wait. :razz:

Some guy on the Red Sox had a no-no in the 6th, 'til ma boy J.J. Hardy singled. :D

It's more of an observation. I'm well aware of how it goes, though I'd like to point out that the 2004 Braves were a very good offensive team despite Randy Johnson having thrown a perfecto against them.

But Randy Johnson already killed you when he looked at you, and admit it... A big bird of a man who throws 100 and has a slider than can break your ankle can do that :D

R.A. Dickey was ordered to remove his wristband for some reason.

It depends on the pitcher as well, and injuries.

And motivation, if Pujols, Trumbo, and Trout all have purple motivation, a pitcher like King Felix or Verlander could easily no-hit them.

No-hitters and perfect games are almost all luck and it really doesn't matter who it is against.

I have to go to bed at 10:00, fall asleep around 11:00, and am usually up at 8:00.

THE OTHER DAY AT FOOTBALL PRACTICE:
Friend 1: Man, these hip pads are really uncomfortable.
Me: Yeah, mine won't stay in place.
Friend 2: I don't even wear 'em, they don't do anything anyway.
Me: You know you can get kicked out of the game if you don't, right?
Friend 2: So? Who cares?
Me: Raises hands like so, and says;

I was just thinking of that Meme a little earlier today. When I was playing Metal Gear Solid, pressed myself up against a wall that said "No Smoking", and started smoking.

This is what my all-foreigner team, the Nagoya Aliens, is looking like:

Something seems off about them, but I can't figure what it is. I changed the color of the lettering on the away uni's, fwiw.

I think it looks great! Why do the Japanese games make me so jealous?? :(

Hey, I just read that Anchorman 2 is coming out in 2013. :D

I hope Liam doesn't get upset by this, but I'm going to probably be deleting the Perfection topic.

Sorry I wasn't on the past couple hours, I was watching a movie with the family.
