[395] That's not surprising. Nebraska is home, with people who actually love him. He's young, so it makes a difference. New York: It Does Things To You!

[391] Dude, go read some of the FJM archives. You’ll feel better.

I just listened to the Joba post-game interview, courtesy of Pete Abe. Interesting. His four days in Nebraska were vital, and vitalizing.

[373] Sorry about the delay, about to cook dinner. It depends on what kind of production you’re working on. Big budget films are usually union, so I wouldn’t be able to work on those as an AC (I could only be in the production department as an assistant, or an intern/trainee in others.) Same goes with most commercials and industrials; if there are any union people involved besides SAG, then it’s all union (PAs don’t have a union in NYC, but in LA they do; go figure)

However, if the project is an indie, then I ostensibly can be an AC; the thing is, you have to be hired by the cameraman/woman or DP, (if you have one). If I can get attention from a few of them, I can get experience and, yes, gigs!

It’s hard here in NYC though, because there are a lot of “politics” involved. From what I hear, it’s not like that in LA (or other places) because they just don’t have time for that. The catch is that there are less productions in LA right now because of the recession, and other states and regions are offering competitive discounts and incentives to film in their locations. NYC has been encouraging film production with tax breaks and promotion deals, but it’s really competitive. I’ve made a name for myself as a PA, but who wants to be a PA for the rest of their lives? Just have to work really hard to make it happen.

and why can't he EVER answer a goddamn direct question. he skirts everything. simple questions that can be answered definitively or where he can at least give his opinion. but he dismissing everything with utter bullshit. it's infuriating.

at least everyone makes fun of phillips. nobody challenges morgan, even when he's so blatantly outta order. everyone walks on eggshells around him. fact is, he's a fucking moron!

[388] They’re both tools, but Morgan has the advantage of having been really, really good at the actual baseball thing he did. Phillips, not so much.

[387] Agreed..though a genius compared to Steve Phillips!

[383] Yeah, for any day games I usually check the box scores first thing..if it’s a day off (like today) I may watch it blind but inadvertently saw a “joba’s back!” headline so…

[380] you usually allow yourself to be spoiled? I was wondering how you handled that.

Joba looked great today, particularly the last 3 innings or so. He went after hitters. He threw strikes. And he had a confidence about him I haven’t seen about him in a bit. He always has cockiness, but I think today he had confidence to boot. If he can follow that with another top performance next time out he might just get on a roll. Which really eases the pressure on the rotation pending the Wang outcome.

Oh, sorry, Rios was the one who stole the base. Overbay is on third. Whatever.

Okay, now that’s something I have never seen before. Sixth inning, Lester still pitching, Jays have runners in the corners with nobody out. Overbay steals second, but the umpire sends him back. When Tek was throwing, his elbow hit the ump in the face mask! I guess that makes the play dead or something.
