What the hell are you talking about? I'd say he was mixing him up with another Samardzija, but the name is horsefeathering Samardzija. -
Fun discovery: this euphemism for penis is inexplicably censored here:
-
It's agonizing how close this feels like being a great joke about how much he looks like a walking dick.
-
Often times if you just change the end to .gif it will work. At least that's I can do with stuff from Reddit or Deadspin that's coded as video.

I will fully cop to being a total meatball about Darvish. If the Cubs make the playoffs and he's starting at Wrigley? I'm expecting a complete disaster.

[narrator]He didn't.[/narrator]

Did you say "over" ?!?!?
-
Yes, and then Darvish made an error, completely changing the complexion of an inning for the millionth time in the last week. It's almost like Not Good Teams struggle in the face of adversity.
-
Look upon it, Epstein. Look upon your works and despair.
-
Glanville basically saying as diplomatically as possible that Darvish was obviously tipping his pitches yet again.
-
Should have figured finally watching these clods again would result in nothing but high blood pressure and sadness.
-
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

Jacked up the strikeouts...still same ol' dongable Darvish.
-
Darvish is somehow both really good and still terrible.

I guess for someone who’s been as good as him. Using garbage after literally one inning is excessive and over the top. Even for you. “Struggled” might be more accurate. 1 inning seems like too short a period to bust out “garbage” but whatever. He’s been good for a significant period of time now, I agree. But we also saw a long stretch of time where he’s gotten into dong trouble, which is always a concern to resurface.

I guess the Giants are looking at sexy pirates as starting pitchers as the new market inefficiency.

Yeah call me crazy for not wanting to kick him to the curb after an injury riddled 95 win season. I trust his track record and his general intelligence. He has built at 3 to 4 phenomenal cores in 17 years. Even if this one tanks I would give the dude another shot to build another core. Well I think the bigger picture that was touched on briefly is that people around here have grown a lot less fond of the guy who has brought in Chapman, Murphy, and kept Russell around. Beyond that, you can't really point to a lot that he's done in the last couple years that have added to the short term or long term success of this club. The Darvish signing remains a miss, as was the Chatwood signing, as was the Morrow signing. Going into this season with that bullpen, with that bench, was a miss. He came through and got Castellanos, which is looking like a big pickup, but we're going to have to keep the pedal down through the end of September just to make the playoffs. Hell, even something like trading for Castellanos should have been something they looked to do before this season. IMO, going into the season with this OF is almost as bad as going into it with the bullpen and bench. Trading for him and signing Kimbrel should be the type of moves we expect them to do earlier, and not scrambling to just stay alive.

The dongs are appreciated, but spoiler those bad boys so this thread can be SFW.

Yes, again, I'm saying Epstein is in a position where he can't effectively just ride out his success to the end of his tenure with the Cubs. Sure that isnt how you phrased it.
