Here is a video of Stinking Despicable Sea Pricks in action.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

So far every DirecTV extra innings live look-in at the Astros game has been Felix striking someone out.

Castro with a long fly to center field badly played by Almonte, who gets an error, scores Altuve and leaves Fowler on second with Castro on first.

Peacock can turn on a dime, multiple times throughout a game. 10 great pitches, 8 terrible ones, 10 great ones, etc.  Must drive the coaches nuts.

Hernandez out. Wilhelmsen in for Seattle.

Nice play at the wall for out one on Pressley
Groundout to third for second for Domingo
Villar singles and aggressively gets to second on what is ruled an error
Villar steals third without a throw
Altuve walks
Altuve steals second uncontested
Fowler Ks to strand the runners

4-3 Seattle

Hopefully the good guys will come back as they are swinging it better tonight, but the Rockets start soon

Springer gets off of the schneid and avoids the platinum sombrero by hitting a walk off single to win it in 11, 5-4.

There's not much finer than waking up to good coffee, a fine breakfast, and a recap of a game with Seattle by NeilT.
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.

As to the first question, I took seven pictures with seven cameras in seven locations.  Then I erased them seven times.  I was going to video the fish toss, but no one was there with me, so they just tossed the fish.  As to the second question, here you go:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjFU98mEem4&feature=kp
