Hello Again

[Gantry]

I'm confused by your face

[BeefMaster]

I think that Gantry may have told me about Danny Cox playing RBI with someone.  If I remember right, he said that either Cox pitched using himself or had to face himself.  Either way, I just remember thinking that I was surprised that it did not cause some sort of Back to the Future paradox where the space-time continuum imploded.  That is some cool stuff.  How did this opportunity present itself anyway?

A Dee-Nee Fest was held in St. Louis, and the fest attendees attended a Gateway Grizzlies game.  rdub, the Fest organizer, notified the Grizzlies' office of the group visit, and it turns out that the staff were fans of both RBI and Dee-Nee, and they had an NES with RBI in the office.  Cox was the manager of the team, and the Fest attendees got a chance to meet with him, at which time Briznock went up against him in RBI (just for one batter, I think), with Cox using himself as pitcher.

Well...with a little google news search I have confirmed that Les Lye has gone teats up and that his character name was Barth.  I feel as though I have learned, yet lost, so much today

[edfan]

Wait...so you guys had a Dee-Nee Fest with an RBI'er in attendance?  That is fantastic!  Gantry may have told me all of those details, but that must have escaped me.  I am seriously impressed.

Short version is that we went to a Independent League game and by sheer luck the people who do bookings are dee-nee fans.  They totally hooked us up and let us in the office to play Danny Cox (who was at the game, but I believe was an ex coach) for one batter. 

None of the above was planned, we just wanted to go to a baseball game as a group.

I didn't realize all of that, either.  Are they lurkers or do any of the staff actually post?

[Shooty]

Welcome back edfan.

Still believe in Jesus and all that stuff?

[nomaaa]

Les Lye?  As in Barf and the guy who owned Blip's Arcade?  I did not know that 

It's information like the passing of Barf that keeps people coming back to dee-nee.  You just can't get this stuff anywhere

i don't ever look at news sites. anything worth knowing is found (and linked) on dee-nee.

Your best post ever.

Welcome back edfan.

Hey Shooty, I do still believe in Jesus....as far as "all that stuff," it is a broad range, so I will say probably. 

...and I agree with Attez, that is the best post by Dark Side that I recall (not meant as a shot at you, but that is a quality post)

Wowza, I go to colorado for 4 days and this happens!

Welcome back and thanks for not hiring Nate Nate Nate for a teaching position out there.  That woulda put some severe clamps on our Tecmo playing.

Wowza, I go to colorado for 4 days and this happens!

[TbT]

But it makes up for Darkie not getting enough credit for his condensed screenplay of Titanic.
