  1. Cake Boss!
  2. I think Noah played at least 45; he and Butler were just gassed by the end. Definitely a game where Thibs needed to break from the usual routine and get guys like Boozer back in there.
  3. It's not that he's exempt from it so much as it actually kinda cheapens the horrible thing he did.
  4. Yeah, on the surface I'm all like, "oh, look at this douchey beard-wearing [expletive], he deserves all the [expletive] he gets," but what the [expletive] is the endgame? How many people are actually doing it for some kind of idea of combating against something like rape culture and how many are just shitty hecklers? The case is vile and he sounds awful (and the article's point about it's presented as something he's trying to "grow beyond" or "put behind him" like that's something motivating him as a player is just...ugh), but the attacks just seem like flailing.
  5. http://replygif.net/i/343.gif So we would have heard you weeping over the season if they had won one or both games so far, right? Because while the team has been fun, nobody has been expecting them to do more than have a bit of a run in the playoffs at the most.
  6. The Cubs aren't getting the #1 pick, you loon.
  7. Hopefully the Ricketts have eyes and actually care. April night game isn't even a quarter full - awful. it's cold. i for one would be there if the weather were better. and i'm not sure i'd be there tonight for the 08 team. http://www.welovetheiraqiinformationminister.com/images/07-minister.jpg
  8. It's not literally a breaking ball, I know, but it's a pitch being thrown in a slightly different way to add movement and has been associated with arm problems. http://replygif.net/i/957.gif
  9. September call up.
  10. Oh my God, these two are the besssssssst.
  11. For once I agree with neely; based on the talk before I watched it I thought Gomez was going to be Moonwalking down the line while pointing at Cole the whole time. All he did was strut a bit, and hell, he didn't even hop as much as Sammy.
  12. Good to see you're approaching this with an open mind.
  13. No, I demand easy conclusions.
  14. I mean, Cespedes isn't a good CFer...but it's not like that's anything similar to Abreu who is just a fat tub who is beyond awful at the easiest position. Well, yeah, it's a sliding scale, but generally it seems like a knock against them. I get why the hitting approaches would be different, but it would seem like fielding is fielding. Is the coaching generally just not as good or is there just not nearly as much emphasis placed on it?
  15. Why are the Cubans so bad in the field?
  16. He had a sub .300 OBP and his wOBA dropped 50 points. And still managed to be a 2.3 WAR player vs. a 2.9 player the first year. Pretty sure it's a stretch to say that the A's are regretting that contract unless we're just assuming that spending money at all hurts them.
  17. he didn't talk [expletive] until [expletive] was talked to him. his bat flip and posing counts as talking [expletive]. again, no problem with his posing and bat flipping. no problem with cole calling him on it. and if you think cole's comments to him were about baseball's unwritten rules and and NOT "hey nice bat flip on a triple, jackass," I don't know what to tell you. Disagree; if Cole is still pitching when Gomez comes up again and he gets him out and then eyeballs him or some [expletive], fine. I just don't look as stuff like that as mouthing off to someone same as actually saying [expletive] to them, though that's just a semantics thing.
  18. "Sparse" in what way? He wasn't that far off from the first year.
  19. Yeah, Gomez isn't blameless in this, but it's not all that "spazzy" when other guys are talking [expletive] and then getting in his face.
  20. Those filthy eye-ties ain't a race.
