  1. We switched sides and finally went from the 3B side to 1B. Still just two seats for now, but closer to the entrance we always come in and on the aisle, plus a better view of that sexy new video screen vs. where we were before.
  2. Hey, score one for Derwood. So not only is Gordon watching the ball between 2B and 3B, he didn't haul ass on a single as the tying run in the WS. So, yes, given that it makes sense not to send him, but they should have been able to send him had he not been running poorly.
  3. You round first hard regardless of whether that is a single or not. I haven't seen a replay focused on Gordon the whole way around, I'm just spitballing You're spitballing that he jogged around 1B on a well-struck single as the final out in the WS?
  4. Why would you possibly think that.
  5. I hate you hacks so very much.
  6. You're basically praying for Bumgarner to throw a wild pitch if you don't send him if he's bookin'. I demand to be entertained. So again I say "meh" and make rude gestures at your emotionless robot face.
  7. Meh. The Royals had no chance against Bumgarner. It was practically a miracle Gordon got the single in the first place, much less ending up on 3B. Yeah, he had basically no shot and rightly wasn't sent based on how shittily he ran, but if he had been hauling ass and looking to the coach he should have been well around 3B as opposed to where he is vs. the ball in that photo.
  8. Ugh, seriously, Gordon should feel like a jackass: http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/_HxUNLbTjDa5Iukt_q6Piw--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7cT04NQ--/http://globalfinance.zenfs.com/en_us/Finance/US_AFTP_SILICONALLEY_H_LIVE/The_Royals_Explain_Why_They-5f91125541a79f8f375853df78bd2d8f
  9. And to clarify: there's nothing in that we don't know already. Cutler turns it over more than is ideal. That is, however, hardly unique to him. You can still be a good QB and turn the ball over more than you want. It's just pointless to seemingly try and pin it as the reason why the Bears are struggling, when it's just a reason out of many as to why the team has imploded. Yeah, when your two main WR have been playing hurt and the OL has regressed/been injured and they essentially have to score on nearly every possession just to even stay in the game, he's going to press and give up critical turnovers. I have no idea why pointing out the obvious should be a "gut punch."
  10. this. my jaw hit the floor when he's rounding second and kept glancing at what was going on in the outfield. Yup. Just bad baserunning on Gordon's part. I don't necessarily agree that he should have gone/been sent with how badly he actually ran the bases, but if he had run like he should have even being just past 3B would have made it real interesting.

  12. Instead we live in a world where Sabean has three titles. Go ahead and crack a bottle and tell us why this is so outrageous. Pizza is on its way Papa John's Frito Massacre Pizza.
  13. He's got that bad period of 4-5 years in the middle of his tenure, but that's bookended by equal or greater periods of success. People knock the first few years because he had Bonds and they didn't actually win a WS, but [expletive] them. The guy's a solid GM.
  14. Probably not. This window is gonna close real fast.
  15. Instead we live in a world where Sabean has three titles. Go ahead and crack a bottle and tell us why this is so outrageous.
  16. That's an odd reaction. Its kind of fitting because a guy named Madison Bumgarner went 7 picks after we drafted Josh number 3 overall. If we're going to bemoan missed drafting opportunities for the Cubs we'll be doing it for years.
  17. That's an odd reaction.
  18. That seems kinda cruel.
  19. I thought so but he would've been hosed. He was somehow only just getting into third when the ball got to the cutoff man. Yeah, that was a huge letdown; I didn't expect him to be that [expletive] far back.
  20. Hunter Pence is going to tear someone in half and bathe in their blood.
  21. Thankfully, no part of the Cajun Connection is present this time.
  22. Gordon, you slow turd.
  23. Holy [expletive].
  24. This is pretty [expletive] cool.
