  1. Almost everyone on the Giants looks like they fell out of a dumpster.
  2. So you honestly believe that there's zero chance at this point that Kris Bryant, now a professional baseball player, will not work with anyone other than his father when it comes to his approach at the plate? Yes go google it. Listen to me very carefully; I'm not disputing he's said he's always worked with his dad. We've all heard it. I'm saying that there's basically no chance a team leaves the fate of one of their top prospects completely in the hands of his father, nor would he and his father likely shun the team's involvement when we're talking about him making a LOT more money if he's able to improve and stay good.

  4. Honestly I think Bryant gets way too much hype. I fell for it too. I bought a Jersey right away. Even JD said on the broadcast that Bryant has some flaws with his mechanics and the league is exposing him. I don't think experience will help there. He actually needs a new batting stance. Yup, that's completely impossible to do. He's just a sham. It's not like that's something the guy playing across from him did or anything. Im not saying it's impossible EVER but I highly doubt it will happen this season. It's been said several times that he only listens to his dad about his swing. You really think he's going to only talk/work with his dad on his approach? That [expletive] is cute and corny when you're a college player and prospect; he's in the majors now and he's ultimately playing for huge money. He's not going to go, "durrrrrrrrrr, I'm only gonna work with mah paw."
  5. Go wipe your butts or something; Cubs aren't losing this.

  7. He's Adam Dunn right now Why do people keep saying this like it's a bad thing. It would be a HUGE improvement if he was Adam Dunn right now. Unless you're saying he's Adam Dunn at the disgusting end of his career. I didn't assign value to his being Adam Dunn. Just saying he's a 3 true outcome hitter right now Strike out, ground out and fly out?

  9. Randy Wells seems relatively appropriate to bring up.
  10. Plus it's got to be extremely hard to prove in the first place. Right; and it's often something that needs to be reported and investigated in a more timely manner than many other crimes, yet it just seems like there's a lot of dancing around a general sense of, "welllllll, they should only report it if they're 100% sure it can be proven."
  11. There's instances of false accusation with all crimes; there's this nonsense train of thought that always seems to be implying that sexual crimes should be held to a higher standard of proof than other crimes because the accused could "have their life ruined."
  12. I'm also not sure where these insanely strict gun laws are. Seems to me it's easier than ever to be a complete [expletive] white person and walk around town with assault weapons with no repercussions. Uh, where have you been? Obummer's been taking all of the guns and giving them to secret Muslim Mexican terrorists.
  13. Yeah, there's this huge pushback that's seemingly centered around paranoia over false rape claims, and you end up with people clamoring like it's a huge or even realistic problem on any kind of significant scale. It's not. You hear MRA-types and the like act like they're terrified to even talk to a woman because they're convinced they're going to get tagged with a false rape charge if anything goes sour in the encounter/relationship. It's insane.
  14. Most rapes and sexual assaults are never reported, so the idea that it's become "too easy" for people to be hit by false rape accusations rings more than a tad hollow. Personally, I think things like changing attitudes towards guns and sexual assault aren't things being "ruined" so much as more and more people finally coming to their senses.
  15. I feel funny watching that.

  17. Someone should Shop the orgy scene from Eyes Wide Shut so everyone is wearing goalie masks.
  18. But I thought they passed on the other awesome Cubans who were awesome right away and stayed awesome to get the most awesomest Cuban.
  19. Yup. So many posts suck and their suckiness should be noted, but an actual response just isn't worth it.
