That is so great to see. Jose deserves that 100% for all the dirty stuff he does.

I think you need to watch the man play. I've seen more than a few games and he doesn't play dirty. That slide today was harder than it might have been if he wasn't just hit it the ribs with a 96 MPH 4-seamer but it wasn't dirty.

Go Rougned!! Made many of us down here in Texas smile today. Good job.

He connected allright! Jose commented on that in is post game interview! It was a sucker punch in my opinion.

I've got no problem with that slide either. Especially after Bautista got a high fastball into the ribs. Then the whining Rangers get all offended when a rotund Fielder takes a ball to his thigh. Gibbons diagnosed the situation perfectly. Gutless.

Dodger fan here. No dog in this fight. But I sure like the painting even more now.

I agree.

Chris and Graig,

Thank you for including us on the 'journey!' I love seeing Graig's work from beginning to finish.

Oh, since I did contribute $40 do you think one of the fans in the back could have a Red Sox hat on? :D

Andrew, I really appreciate the support Sir, but I don't think I can do it. Red Sox and Yankee hats make me queasy ;). Can't wait to finally get to Fenway though. Been on my bucket list for ever!

pretty much this. if you had this big a hard-on the whole offseason hit him the first chance you see him. don't wait until the last ab of the season and have a 30 yr alcoholic who wasn't even on the team last year do the dirty work for you.

Guys, let's return this thread to its original purpose as it has veered way off track. I have deleted my intended humorous post about the Rangers/Jays game yesterday and would request everyone else to do the same for theirs. After all, the painting and its development is a much more interesting topic than the merits of a baseball feud.

I agree Jim. However, in some ways, what happened yesterday does make the subject of the painting even that much more interesting. I mean, what happens if these two teams meet again in the post season?

Also, I wanted a reason to post this in all its gloriousness.

Now. Back to the painting.

For as hard as Odor hit him, to Bautista's credit, he didn't go down. And that punch landed as squarely as possible....
