Rosscup is garbage

 

That is all.

[Guest]

i think i'm going to watch smokey and the bandit now for some nostalgic fun with burt reynolds and jackie gleason

[Ski]

Meanwhile a top five prospect in baseball can't even get a hit with the bases loaded and a pretty good closer can't not throw the baseball right down the middle to a stud first basemen.

 

Baseball is stupid.

[Sammy Sofa]

This Nick Ahmed guy seems like quite a fellow.

[Guest]

Nick Ahmed went 3 for 5 with a HR

 

Even after that, Nick Ahmed has an OPS south of .550

 

Gonna need to sleep those facts off

[halplm]

Ahmed is my new least favorite player.

[Ski]

Sooooooo many bad things tonight.

[Sammy Sofa]

oh look, it's the muslim david eckstein

 

Uhhhhhhhhhh...

This one was the real dick kicker tonight, but speaking of our "pretty good closer"...

You win 2 hours ago if you don't pitch to the only D'Backs hitter worth a damn. Bad loss and probably Maddon's worst game.

[Ski]

We're seven games over on the karma scale.

Holy hyperbole.

lollll

[Sammy Sofa]

I thought the loss two nights ago was supposed to be the one that sent them into a crippling shame spiral from which they will never recover. What will this one do?

acting like not only should they have put the tying run on base (with a pretty good hitter with power coming up next, mind you), but acting like it was such a no brainer that doing otherwise is a travesty lmfao

Probably spiral us into a 3 game winning streak of games we eke out 1 run victories

Just the usual game thread hysteria about how THIS LOSS IS SO DEVASTATING AND COULD BE THE END.

[Guest]

i'm just frustrated that we were 99% of the way to being 2.5 out

 

assigning any meaning to this beyond that is something only insane people do
