    Whoa. Are you doing OK?

    Because manpower had nothing to do with the inability to keep the field dry. Didn't the field end up soaked because of the screw-ups and the tarps not being put out properly and in time? Doesn't seem a stretch to say that that occurred due to being shortstaffed. You also have businesses having less time to train new people properly because of situations like this.

    I'm not saying where the discussion should take place; if you want to move it to the politics thread, fine, nobody is going to complain. I agree, the timing of the article is a stretch since it's further blowing up something that could have happened even if they were still operating at previous levels, but ultimately it IS something that the owners of the team decided to do that will and has impacted the organization and the news of it was just brought to our attention.

    He's making the association that the reason for the mishap with the tarp on Monday is directly related to that hours thing, and outright implies it would have been avoided had those offseason changes not happened. That's extremely questionable at best and outright nonsense at worst. 'Witch hunt' implies a pattern, and while Wittenmyer loves trying to call out ownership I wouldn't use that term, but that article was pretty much garbage. I disagree; most people here are probably dealing with firsthand (or have at least witnessed) how cuts like that have impacted workforces. Yes, saying that Tarpgate happened specifically because of it is stretching, but most of the article is about the bigger issue of how the staff has been impacted all season long by these changes, and yes, it likely is impacted how the place is maintained.

    I saw it right in front of me. Touch my eyeballs and you can still feel the heat.

    Nobody called the Ricketts out for being conservative.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    What are you talking about?
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Does anyone actually like those lazy-eyed monsters?

    This has been a fun game to be at. Now that I have seen Javy homer in person I can die, but I hope I don't.

    This guy's gonna be a bum.

    Ricketts sucks, but it's not a witch hunt when it's just reporting on something that countless business are doing because they are run by scum bog bastards.

    It's difficult to watch and not be down on the kid. It was a lot easier staying level headed when you read about his bad starts in the minor league forum Weird. It's much easier to take for me when I'm seeing all the loud contact and massive HRs in between. I'm really not disappointed at all. Yup.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    Well, they weren't ours to begin with; it was super empty during the first game.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    PS: we got kicked out of our upper deck seats. I still want to find Brett. I'm tempted to introduce myself to everyone wearing pants.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    I've only had a couple beers; it's just a nice night out at the ballpark. I promise that the Cubs will win this game.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    It's the spirit of the game or something. I am downright jovial right now.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    It's difficult to watch and not be down on the kid. It was a lot easier staying level headed when you read about his bad starts in the minor league forum I am totally cool with it. You guys need get on the whole eternal optimism thing; it's pretty great.

    Let us know if he's a shorts or pants guy and what type (cargo, jean, slacks, etc.) Ha I was just gonna make some sort of pants joke because he just tweeted a pic of him and a bunch of dudes abd he's the only one not wearing shorts. OMG, I GOTTA NEW BFF.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Where is he? I'll go introduce myself and we'll have a real meeting of the minds.
  20. Sammy Sofa
    I bellowed "free the Bum" three times, but sadly he did not (nor Roast) magically appear.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    I'M GONNA GO MAKE A SCENE. I'm right under Len and JD. Avenge my death.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    A dump like this and jeans are just fine, but yes, if my shins were exposed surely this devil humidity would go away.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Who knew that WSR would be the LCCF of baseball finances?
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Oh God, it's so sweaty out here. So very sweaty.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Ugh. I'm across the street from Wrigley and it is nasty as hell right now.
