1. #3 is from Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke,

7 is Seinfeld
9 is In Living Color

[rzemanfl]

2. I think you missed mine, #101 in Part 23. No one answered. n/t

[red dog 1]

3. That's why I always post a link to the previous thread.

Because when I update one of these "without using Google" threads, I simply cannot list ALL of the ones that were unanswered.

As far as the one you cite, my first thought about "Oscar" was that it might be from "The Odd Couple", but I rarely ever watched the TV show, "The Odd Couple"

[rzemanfl]

6. I didn't know that. Thanks. Would Howard Duff and Ida Lupino be enough of a hint?

Or are you too young for black and white TV?

[red dog 1]

7. A TV show?

Not a movie?

13. I remember before TV

We lived in South San Francisco, and the dentist down the street had the only TV on the block.
He also had about 6 kids.
All of us kids would bring our little chairs down to his house to watch Howdy Doody
There had to be at least 12-15 kids there every weeknight.

(God I feel Old)

I don't remember our 1st TV being delivered.
I think it was a year or 2 later, after we moved to Palo Ato.
My 1st memory of watching TV at our house was when I was with my older sister & we watched "Outer Limits" I think.

because I wasn't in school yet. About 1951.

71. welcome to DU

[Brother Buzz]

61. #12 is Seinfeld, of course, but there's a cool Hunter Pence story associated with it

The Hunter Pence sign phenomenon

Hunter Pence, who won his second World Series in three years with the Giants, is one of the quirkiest and most charismatic All-Stars in baseball, playing with an unself-conscious blend of bug-eyed intensity and unrestrained desire. This year the public persona of the 31-year-old right fielder grew exponentially with his play on the field, his motivational speeches and the appearance -- in ballparks from coast to coast -- of an inexplicable phenomenon: Hunter Pence signs.

The Mag: Did the whole sign thing blow you away when it took off?

Pence: It was extremely funny. My girlfriend, Alexis [Cozombolidis], was the one who got it started. I'm a big "Seinfeld" fan, and it started with a picture we posted of me in a New York diner holding a cup of coffee -- it wasn't the actual "Seinfeld" diner, but it reminded me of it -- with the famous quote, "These pretzels are making me thirsty." That night in Queens, some fans made some signs: "Hunter Pence Puts Ketchup on His Hot Dog" and "Hunter Pence Eats Pizza With a Fork." Those are two things New Yorkers should never do, according to "Seinfeld." I thought it would last one or two days, maybe through the Mets series, and we couldn't believe what it turned into.

When did you realize it had taken on a life of its own?

The Mets series was cool, but I thought, "OK, that was just New York." But when we went to Milwaukee and all of the right-field bleachers in Milwaukee had a ton of signs, I couldn't believe it. OK, they caught on. The next stop was Kansas City and I thought, "There's no way Kansas City has signs," and they had even more. And some really funny ones.

Do you have any favorites?

I have a ton of favorites. "Hunter Pence Picks the Hamburger in the Hot Dog Race." If you're a "Seinfeld" fan -- and I don't know if this is appropriate -- a lady held one that said "Hunter Pence is Spongeworthy." Another one was "Hunter Pence Thinks Kansas City's in Kansas."

Here's a link to a reasonably decent collection of Hunter Pence signs that have popped up over the years:

https://baseballstatsfanatic.wordpress.com/2014/10/28/hunter-pence-signs/

[red dog 1]

62. Awesome!

Thanks for those links.

The Giants made a HUGE mistake trading him away.
He was a big part of the 2012 & 2014 World Series Championships.

WTF were they thinking?

[Brother Buzz]

63. He wasn't traded, he was a free agent and the Rangers offered him more than the Giants could afford

He's 35, and has been plagued by injuries the last few years, but the Texas Rangers are getting their money's worth; he's on fire batting .378.

I watched him bat twice in Spring training, and both times were sweet home runs (one against the Giants and the Giants fans gave him a standing ovation)! I miss him horribly, but I wish him luck all the future; he is arguably one of the most entertaining MLB player to watch.

Here's an entertaining early scouting report on Hunter Pence:



Say his name five times quickly and you'll learn how he got his nickname, and why we love him:

[red dog 1]

66. So then, they should have signed him to a one-year contract.

He was injury-plagued, but when he was well, he was a good, patient hitter (lots of walks) and, though slower because of age, he was also a pretty good outfielder.

Also, he was well-liked by his teammates, and a positive force in the clubhouse. (cracking jokes etc.)

[Brother Buzz]

68. They should have put him on staff....

Dugout Psychiatrist, Assistant to the Manager. Posey may be the brains, but Pence was the heart and soul of the team.

Interestingly enough, Pablo Sandoval appears to be stepping up into Hunter Pence's roll.

[red dog 1]

69. Yeah, they could have done that.

If they wanted to, they could hire Barry Bonds as hitting coach.
(God knows they can't hit worth shit..they swing at everything.. they get very few walks....very impatient at the plate..all of 'em)
But they won't hire Barry Bonds, and they won't be any better than last year.
