Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Were you at Donner Lake today? I saw one just like yours when I was biking around the lake today.

 

Last weekend, the creek that was feeding the lake was running pretty hard.

 

no, but I wish it would have been me lol

 

7 runs* on 2 hits in the 13th? Giants making magic happen yet again.

*Better call it 6, actually, because the whole "automatic runner on 2nd in extras" thing is stupid.

 

Last Saturday I drove to Livermore. Arrive at my destination and heard the engine knock. Thought that was weird and thought nothing of it. Went to investigate this morning before taking the truck to work, and saw the knocking sound was coming from of the spark plug. So this was the cause. I’m not able to reseat it. Anyone experience this? I plan on getting some new wires tomorrow to see if it will fix it.

 

Damn. Izzy would love that

Kid did phenomenal today at his 1 on 1 practice. I hope he keeps at it. I keep yelling "you're Jose canseco"! Lol. Great pitching and batting.

This game went 13 innings on a 1 all tie. Right up to the 13th when the flood gates opened!

Oh yeah. Anyone see Romo drop his drawers for the sticky stuff search? That was hilarious!

 

that was hilarious!

 

Holy shit I saw that. Way to make fun! I miss Romo. He was good Giant

Unbelievable game. I've never seen anything like it. Hearing Snow talk about how the Angels might have to forfeit. I kind of wanted that to happen and then the 13th happened. Great job Tauchman! HR clutch when you need it. Dubon was shite but he hit that HR yesterday. I forgive him. Tomorrow the Giants finish them! FATALITY!!!

 

My old boss once told his kid he had to stick with baseball for three years because it took that long to learn to play the game. So he couldn’t quit until he’d learned to play because only then would he know if he liked it or not. Much crying but he stuck with it.

 

It was just a 2-gamer, they come home to start the BB series Friday. I saw the final score and watched a YouTube that ended right after the 12th inning safe call. WTF? I thought the Giants won? Then found another video showing replay result and the 13th. I like seeing a higher percentage of calls end up correct in spite of the delay but was it obviously an out when viewed on a big high def screen? Hate losing Belt yet again, that dudes career has been snake bit by injury.

 

Haha. That's pretty clever !

 

He and a couple of others in the office played softball in one of the more competitive leagues. The kind with one home run rules. All played high level baseball (one's kid is at university on a baseball scholarship. D1 baseball).

I think he was gonna be pissed if the tradition of baseball in all his boys.

 

Did you fix it? Possible maybe it just got old enough or was knocked off by a bump or something. When my spark plug blew and became loose last year, it was a bad knocking sound as the spark plug was literally just seated in the slot and free-bouncing around.

 

Bro you are right. That’s exactly what happened. It came loose and was bouncing around. I tightened it this morning and all is good now. Appreciate the knowledge bro!

 

is yours a 4 or 6 cylinder? My old 4 banger blew a spark plug out and dented the underside of the hood. Had to have it heliocoiled.

 

3.4 6 Cylinder, I was surprised it made it 150 miles round trip in 105 degree heat that day. I got lucky.

 

Awesome! Glad you found the source and fixed it! That rattle sound is awful… sounds like the engine is about to go. Lol

 

Anyone headed to this?
