A Caller From Somewhere In Time | Sports Talk with Cal McCallister Ep. 3

I'm up earlier than normal on a day off, it's Friday, Joe's on the golf course somewhere today, and I have a trip to the airport to take later this morning. Let's get this edition of Screencaps going.

First item on the agenda is I time traveled yesterday morning. Nobody called me on it, which makes me think maybe we all did some time traveling. But hand up, I referenced the wrong Thursday Night Football game yesterday.

You could say I got it wrong, or as I prefer to say, I was early. I mentioned the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Dallas Cowboys game. That's next Thursday's short week, sloppy game. Last night was actually the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns.

I'm not sure how that happened, but I'm not a robot. I can time travel by accident sometimes.

The flag-filled game in Cleveland ended up being close at the end and that's all you can ask for on Thursday night, with the Browns in their disgusting uniforms and flags hitting the grass every other play.

As far as the other game I mentioned, I nailed that. No time traveling there. The Phillies were sent home by the Braves in a game that was never in doubt. An early postseason exit is tough.

You know what isn’t tough? Having absolutely no chance of playing past the 162 and getting to plan your offseason appropriately. I say it every year and I stand by it.

If you're not going to make a deep playoff run, it's not the end of the world to miss out entirely. Just ask Paul Skenes, who I might add looks like he slimmed down.

He's in the Bahamas, he's with girlfriend Livvy Dunne, things could be a lot worse for him. The Pirates lost 80 games this season and while they avoided the NL Central cellar, they didn’t have to worry about the postseason.

Instead, they got their offseason started earlier than all the teams who ended up getting bounced in the Wild Card round. That meant an early start on resting up for next season.

In Skenes' case, that also meant getting to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday with her somewhere warm. Again, things could be a lot worse for the star right-hander.

I say enjoy it while you can, because one day this is likely going to change for him. He's going to eventually get out of Pittsburgh and onto a team that has deep postseason potential.

Happy birthday, Livvy. And happy offseason, Paul.

more meat

The Swinewinder..... Italian sausage inside of a boneless pork loin, wrapped in bacon, then wrapped in ground Italian sausage, then again in bacon, stitched together using slices of Canadian bacon, topped with pineapple slices, and a sweet heat bbq sauce.

Incredible job, Johnny. I can see you're a guy who takes his meat seriously. I respect that and I want to see more. There's a lot going on in the Swinewinder and I imagine it's awesome. Keep sending me your meat.

This and That

Hey SeanJo,

Congrats on your daughter getting married! Really happy for your family.

Last weekend, I raced and finished my 4th half IRONMAN race (70.3 miles of swim/bike/run) in Augusta, Georgia. Very beautiful course with a hilly ride (I live in super flat South Florida, so bridge repeats can only go so far) and a scenic run through South Carolina, just over the Savannah River, which gave me a fast swim via the current. The cold front helped, because the temps started at 56 and ended at 82. Normally it’s hot with a heat index of 100, from what we were told. I wasn’t in town long enough to truly enjoy it, but everyone was truly nice! I added a pic of the great medal. Any other Screencapers do this race this year or in the past? In Augusta-based SCers that were out cheering us on? As far as another 70.3, I am going to give it 2 years. It’s a lot of training, and my one full IRONMAN I did years ago is all I need (140.6 miles).

Also wanted to share a photo from last night. Mrs. Gen X Warren M needed to go to our local mall to pick up an order. We passed Altar’d State, a clothing store (which she sometimes shops at), and they already had their Christmas decorations up in the main window! October 1st! Are we now bypassing Halloween and Thanksgiving?? I attached a photo.

Anyway, take care! No grilling as we have had nonstop rain (except when a cool front came in while I was in Augusta). Possibly this weekend.

Thanks for the mention of my daughter's wedding. It was a good time and everything went well. Most importantly, the bride and her mother didn't kill each other putting it all together.

When it comes to the Ironman races that's some serious work. How long do you train for one of those? Not that I'm planning to ever give it a try.

The early fall followed by the early Christmas being pushed on everyone is the fault of those who fall for it. If you don’t buy it early, and shame those around you who do, they'll stop putting them out so early. It's gross.

Solid Bullpen Playoff W

Hey SeanJo,

Solid first call to the bullpen for the Wild Card Playoffs W! You trusted your stuff that put you in this position and it clearly showed...solid content, great IGs, spot on sports nuggets, outstanding pics of our meat, and even a nod to recognize that Sophomoric humor will never die in Screencaps Nation!

I am one of those "year round maniacs that fire up the grill even when there is snow on the ground" that you referred to in your reply to my email yesterday. Proud of it and it separates the "pretenders from the contenders." One exception...Feb 1 of this year, Sunset Beach NC had a historic snowfall of 15"...AT THE BEACH!! Even I could not muster the gonads to go out in that and grill or fire up the Blackstone! I did manage to go out at 7:45 AM and take pics of this historic event.

Hope you finish this second Playoff call to the Bullpen strong and don't have to rely on a crucial deciding weekend call. I have a feeling that you will nail it. The pics just remind us what is looming...enjoy Fall, y'all!

SeanJo

Thanks for the support. I will always trust my stuff, even when it falls short. Let me be clear about those who hit the grill all year. Maniacs is meant as a compliment. Some of my favorite people hit the grill year round and I don’t blame you for taking a few days off due to historic snowfall.

That's all for Friday. Have a great day. I have to run shortly, and I'll see everyone on Sunday. It's a big weekend for me as far as sports are concerned, unless I'm time traveling again, which I don't think I am.

The Yankees take on the Rays in the ALDS. Can they keep their bats going in Tampa? We shall see. And the Panthers are the Sunday Night Football game.

They'll be hosting the Lions and a win would be nice. The bottom line is that both teams have to go get and not get got.
