At least you are self-aware enough to realize that complaining about things you "don't need to see" is really soft and fragile. Soft & fragile? Lol, OK. I don't sit around and complain about it while watching games. It annoys me at times but I'm not yelling about the good old days when players didn't do that.

Tyler Chatwood is awesome and we were wrong to ever doubt him*

I'm an old fart who grew up learning the unwritten rules of baseball from my old man. While I do think some celebrations are unnecessary I absolutely love watching guys like Javy play at 100mph with emotion and flair, if you will. That is so much fun to watch. I think he's able to do it without a "look at me" vibe which can be distasteful to me. I don't see a huge problem with bat flips but the batters then need to be OK with pitchers showing emotion when they get a big K too. I think most of my "old man yells at cloud" moments come while watching the NFL.You don't need to pimp every 6 yard catch that results in a garden variety first down. Make a highlight reel catch or score a TD, then by all means do some celebrating. But I don't need to see Zeke Elliott "eating" after a 2-yard dive up the middle.

4/21: D-backs (Ray) @ Cubs (Chatwood) 1:20 on CSC

Thankfully I’ll be at my sister’s for Easter and she does not get the MLB Extra Innings package. -
Darvish blows

Just missed a chance at our 3rd straight shutout win for the first time since 1997 I believe.
-
Damn. Heyward CRUSHED that ball.
-
LMAO @ Marte
-
:yahoo:
-
Am I wrong in being upset that Heyward didn’t make it to 3rd on the Bote single?
-
Javy would’ve scored on that.
-
This is one of those “run out every pop fly” kinda days.
-
You spelled Harper wrong.
-
I hate non noon kickoffs too and that's more than half the schedule this season.
-
The damage Chili Davis wrought upon KB’s swing may be irreversible.
-
Almora has earned the Human Rally Killer title vacated by Heyward.
-
That wasn’t even close.
-
Well that just made it a bit less stupid.
-
This inning is stupid.
-
Watching on my phone at work with no sound. What was that 45 Len was just showing to the camera?

2018/19 Blackhawks march to the lottery
Old Style replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
Hawks move from 12 to 3! -
Well the silver lining to not signing Harper is that he's really stumbled out of the gate in Philly. I mean a 1.284 OPS is bad, right?
-
What did I miss? Why is Lester out?
-
Oh wait. These are all unearned, right? Lol.
-
So he’s OK, now wreck his ERA!
