SportsFilter: The Saturday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
I expect having a hockey rink in Qatar to produce more technological innovations than the American space program.

So . . . any good games happening today?

The cardinals were beating up on the orioles pretty badly in the park that I was at earlier today.

When Adrian Beltre says "I've got it.", you best be getting out of his way.

I'm trying to decide which glare is scarier -- Beltre's or the one that rcade posted in yesterday's Huddle.

Beltre begins his glare the second the ball hits his glove. That's not easy to time.
He looks like somebody just touched his head.

The grin on the other guy's face makes it look like some kind of practical joke, like someone else on the team put him up to it. "Hey, go piss Adrian off by getting in his way while he fields a fly ball, five bucks says he gives you major league stink eye!"

As long as he doesn't give you a rack of broken ribs and put you out for most of the season *cough* Ellsbury *cough*
