  1. Isn't it the exact opposite of that? When he's good, they tend to be good. You can see and track the results, individual and team-wise.
  2. this isn't a thing teamwide offensive momentum isn't a thing this is baseball and streaks happen from time, both good and bad, for no reason in particular I think the RISP struggles are worth a concern. What does this even mean? Unless you think the Cubs are allergic to hitting with RISP, or simply forgot how to do it, what are you realistically thinking the problem is?
  3. I TOOK THIS LACKEY BULLET FOR YOU, TREE.
  4. Time for something heroic.
  5. Carl is a cool guy with a tiny head.
  6. http://i.giphy.com/YPgEMyIKuSlpK.gif
  7. Oh, no, I work with a different government agency. Dude, just let it go. My board status-thingie here was "Racey McRacist" for years and somehow I survived. I feel like having a conversation immediately makes it seem like I'm over the top angry or out of my mind or on a crusade. There is nothing to let go. I'm fine. I just happened to have an opinion and was expressing it during our convo. The CIA? Sometimes.
  8. Maybe? What does the FBI have to do with anything? [expletive]. I thought you once worked for the FBI or was associated with them. Oh, no, I work with a different government agency. Dude, just let it go. My board status-thingie here was "Racey McRacist" for years and somehow I survived.
  9. I think people are able to run on Hendricks and Jake, too. Not sure what those numbers look like for Hammel and Lackey.
  10. OH MAN, THIS IS SO UNFAIR. I was wrong. It actually feels pretty good. Also aren't most people associated with the FBI sort of racist? Maybe? What does the FBI have to do with anything?
  11. Wait, my feed is seriously just at the start of the bottom of the 5th and the inning is actually already over? Good lord.
  12. Or just strike out, do that.
  13. I'm assuming Matt Vasgersian is actually the Grand Cyclops of the Klan RIGHT NOW. Quiet down, you racist. OH MAN, THIS IS SO UNFAIR.
  14. Time to smack a dong, you monster-faced horsefeathers heel.
  15. Yeah, I'll get right on worrying about that. Not asking you to worry about it. Doesn't make my statement at all wrong. I'm assuming Matt Vasgersian is actually the Grand Cyclops of the Klan RIGHT NOW.
  16. Yes, which we also make fun of in addition to making fun of Lackey. You're ALMOST there.
  17. Uh, non-white players getting more [expletive] for doing the sort of thing Lackey does isn't some made up thing; it's basically a cliche: http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/08/how-mlb-announcers-favor-american-players-over-foreign-ones/261265/ It's a pretty safe bet that if Lackey was Latino we'd hear a LOT more criticism for his [expletive] attitude, or at the very least plenty of dog-whistles like how "fiery" and "hot-tempered" he is. That is all fine and good. I have a problem with specifically assuming the two men in the booth today are racist based on assumptions. It is incredibly unfair to them. Yeah, I'll get right on worrying about that.
  18. News to me. Seems more like he's a non-entity they're just filling time over with the usual baseball platitudes because he's such a zilch. Lackey is an infamous douche.
  19. I have no idea why you're so defensive of this dumb dildo. He's just profoundly unlikable. I'm not defending lackey. I'm disputing a stupid suggestion. It's not like this is the only game where you've been weirdly protective of him. Who gives a horsefeathers if nobody likes him?
  20. I have no idea why you're so defensive of this dumb dildo. He's just profoundly unlikable.
  21. Hey, Smoltz just called a trio of honkies "fiery." What a time to be alive.
  22. I'm just going off of 40+ years of watching baseball. Just seems incredibly irresponsible and unfair to accuse people of being racist without having any evidence. Uh, non-white players getting more horsefeathers for doing the sort of thing Lackey does isn't some made up thing; it's basically a cliche: http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/08/how-mlb-announcers-favor-american-players-over-foreign-ones/261265/ It's a pretty safe bet that if Lackey was Latino we'd hear a LOT more criticism for his shitty attitude, or at the very least plenty of dog-whistles like how "fiery" and "hot-tempered" he is.
  23. "Soler can run?" Nice smack, Montero.
