STRAIGHT ACROSS. http://scottsutton.net/wp-content/uploads/sunny05.gif

Limit it to one per inning and get a pitch clock and, man, you got a stew goin'.
-
Eh; none of that seems too egregious.
-
As god as my witness, Brian McCann needs to get run over by a horsefeathering tractor before getting to win a WS.

Starting weekend games no earlier than 7 PM EST is dumb as horsefeathers.
-
The games have started at 5 PM Los Angeles time, what the hell do you want from them? An hour earlier. And weekend games should be WAY earlier.
-
They literally have since 1992.
-
They can' really start it any earlier than 5 Pacific. The problem is the games are going north of 4 hours. Why can't they start it earlier than 5 PT? 76% of the US population lives in the eastern or central time zone. Start the game at 4 PT IMO Yeah, a long WS/playoff game isn't an unusual thing, so starting them any later than 7 PM EST is just dumb.

Owner of the Cubs, yet he can't go full bar? #PTR lives...

Unless "in lieu of" doesn't mean what I think it does.
-
Uh, there's lots of candy in there, too.
-
With Darvish going I am all in on the Dodgers; go screw, Astros.
-
2 years in a row now where you could not ask for a better WS, and it seems like such a missed opportunity that they're on so, so [expletive] late.
-
Plus I still want to know if that's him or not.

Turtlevinceandee?

DAMMIT. Well, no shame in admitting I was beaten to the punch with such sweet Tubastinky wordplay.

ANSWER MY QUESTION. ACKNOWLEDGE MY PUN.
-
Is Tobleroneski the inexplicable Semi-Pro superfan?
-
Because Zobrist isn't dead yet and hopefully is healthier next year.
-
Worrrrrrrrd.
-
Oh yeah; we have a Simpsons thread.
-
I mean, this whole tangent started because of the baseball episode, so I both kinda agree and disagree with this. Something like "Krusty Gets Kancelled" lives and dies with celebrity cameos, and it's one of the all-time greats. Plus that Baldwin one was pretty weird in how the celebrity guests were in, like, the entire episode as themselves. I can think of the Mel Gibson one like that, too, but most of the later season episodes I've seen that have celebrity voices still tend to use them for just cameos; there's just no joke beyond, like you said, "it's this famous person!" Later writers just didn't have as good a handle on the whole "celebrities playing themselves" thing. Like, the celebrity shows up, and then a character on the show has to comment on who they are; that's usually a sign it's a bad era.
-
Guest stars as themselves(Michael Jackson excepted) holy horsefeathers yes They were doing that all along, but something definitely changed once they hit the double digit seasons when it seemed more like they were trying to bend over backwards more and more to awkwardly fit big names on the show instead of either giving them a character to play or doing something weird playing themselves. But a quick scan of this shows it does not work as a flat rule: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Simpsons_guest_stars

And yeah, not liking "Homerpalooza" is flat out insane.
