Who wants today's Game Day Thread (or another in the future)
« on: March 28, 2024, 09:34:51 am »
If you want to start today's GDT, maybe working up a nice one with pictures and wisdom, then you can claim it below. That'll minimize wasted effort.

If it is less than 15 minutes before first pitch, then I recommend just using the quick GDT format, which is found in the GDT subforum. 

Last year, we had some games that started before anyone set up a thread. In that case, just start the new topic with a post. No need for lineups.

For home games, the format for the subject is:
Nationals v. [Team we are hosting], Game [whichever game of the series]

For road games, the format is:
Nationals @ [Home Team], Game [whichever game of the series]

I forget how we deal with rain outs and suspended games.

I think it depended on how delayed the make-up/continuation was, so we played it by ear whether to revive the existing thread or create a new one.

I have a .txt file with a template into which I plug in the particulars of that day's game, so my GDTs are rather formulaic. I do try to add in some pictures and wisdom, such that it is, when I get a chance.

I'm not good with pix, so maybe Trey deserves a thread with his picture in it in honor of his debut.  Anyone want today?

Home Opener. Looks like for now the game will  take place in a dry window of weather. I am out most of the afternoon and will not start the GDT. Someone want to claim it?

I've got a draft set up, but I'm hoping for a N2P special . . . Help me, Obi Wan, your my only other hope.

Is there a Dead Head who would want to start the GDT for Wednesday night, 5/8? It's Grateful Dead night at Nats Park, so a Dead theme would be great.

We used to have a guy Stealyourbase who was in some Dead cover bands, but he hasn't checked in in a few years. I guess he pulled a Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo.



Anyone there for this? RFK 7/12/89

The SY FY channel will air a Twilight Zone Marathon on Saturday, with episodes of the original Twilight Zone TV show from 8 AM until 6 AM Sunday morning.

1:05 start today. I will not have access to a computer after 11 or so this AM, so it would be good for someone else to start the GDT.

1:40 Gametime today. I'd rather not start another thread, but I will move on it at 1:35 if no one else has started one.
