  1. Oh wait. That's right. I didn't get season tix 2 years ago bc no one would split them with me. Never mind. Watching from Seattle. [tinyviolin]
  2. Must have passed a million believen posters between At&t and my hotel in SF. Lol
  3. Exactly. Mean Girls is a "stop and watch" movie for me. I'd say guilty pleasure but I'm too old for guilt eta - just realized this was 2 months old. lol. glad we cleared that up.
  4. Roberts was impressive
  5. Read this or not, your call, but Brisbee is probably the best of the folks that currently write about baseball. He goes through all of the villains, minor and major, before laying blame for '03 Game 6. Since he gives it away from the beginning, I'll tell you, he does not blame Bartman. Instead of the Bartman Game, he proposes renaming it thusly: GLTHOWAYDAhhhhhhh http://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2016/10/21/13352894/cubs-nlcs-2003-game-6-steve-bartman-sorry For example:
  6. i could see arrieta batting for heyward in this game
  7. when i'm 82 i'm eating ice cream 81 times a [expletive] week I'm gonna wake up and eat ice cream before i even waddle over to the horsefeathering toilet bc you just never know
  8. when i'm 82 i'm eating ice cream 81 times a horsefeathering week
  9. i always get worked up about that too, but next inning is the bottom of the order so he'll have easier at bats. true except the leadoff hitter has a .286 OPS and the redheaded stepchild hits lefties like heyward hits anything not sitting on a tee.
  10. fouling off pitches over the plate only to strike out doesn't seem like a victory in any sense of the word Working up pitch counts is always a good way to make an out. no one is arguing that you'd rather see more pitches than fewer
  11. 18 pitch first isn't ideal. let's go lester
  12. Plus were past the point where we can feel good about Good ABs with bad results I'll feel good about any AB with a lot of pitches fouling off pitches over the plate only to strike out doesn't seem like a victory in any sense of the word
  13. that's just stupid. umps make mistakes, so never swing at 2-0 pitches? No. Don't swing at horsefeathers pitches up 2-0 knowing umps make mistakes. ok well this horsefeathers is stupid so whatever
  14. the guy has a .286 OPS Jon, come the horsefeathers on
  15. swinging at a 2-0 count doesn't justify a BS strike 3 call. Swinging at balls up 2-0 puts you in a spot to be horsefeathers by umpires who are inherently awful that's just stupid. umps make mistakes, so never swing at 2-0 pitches?
  16. saw a lot of pitches but not sure i'd call it a good ab just b/c he fouled them off.
  17. swinging at a 2-0 count doesn't justify a BS strike 3 call.
  18. still getting fucked by the umps i see
