  1. Threw my back out at the gym. Was there to lift weights, did about 1/2 a workout but got hurt just bending over to pick up a 45lb plate, could not stand back up. I was 17, in the best shape of my life, absolutely jacked, and threw my back out leading stretches on the first day of two-a days. Taught me to never stay in shape.
  2. Olin Kreutz and the Meatballs have been having an, actually the science says football is good for you, kind of day. [tweet] [/tweet]
  3. Here is my lame slippery slope argument: How long would it take after the DH is instituted league-wide until people are clamoring for shortstops to have their ABs covered by guys with Dadbods who can't field? I think it would take an incredibly long time. Probably at least until I'm too old to give a horsefeathers.
  4. The big benefit from the 8 team divisions in the proposed schedule is that it takes a big bite out of travel costs. You could do eight 4 team divisions and weight the schedule with games from your division and a sister division for the same result, and the main benefit is about a playoff structure that is less desired(8 teams) or can also be replicated with 4 divisions. Unless we're switching to buses I think everybody touting He travel cost thing is making stuff up. You are still getting in a plane every 3-9 days. You are still staying in expensive hotels.
  5. Wow. Would like that. Mine was my best case scenario based on my own opinions. But you wouldn’t hear me complain about this at all. If I had to tweak one thing it would be only 6 or 7 wild cards so you can reward second place teams that are likely 95-win teams many years. You reward them by letting them make the playoffs while not winning their division. The point is to make the regular season meaningful, despite opening up to more teams. They'd also get home game for their one game playoff.
  6. Doubleheader playoff games is a terribly stupid idea
  7. Never a doubt in my mind he'd be back!

  9. Yu is throwing a sim game
  10. The man has a forum named after him and the horsefeathers, but this is a bridge too far.
  11. If I'm the Dodgers I'm pushing for a forfeit win. They're here, they're ready to play and the Cubs can't get the lights turned on. What?
  12. He asked that question because he disgraced the game. I'm trying to think of a baseball parallel, and the best I can come up with is a pitcher starting his delivery to the plate without having his foot on the rubber, and then pretending like he just felt like dancing to try and avoid a balk...but its worse than that because golf likes to pretend its a gentleman's game. Phil pretended that he did this ON PURPOSE to take a 2 shot penalty. He's lying about that, but that is actually worse than just completely losing his cool and keeping his ball from rolling off the green. This is Happy Gilmore level of non sense. He really should have withdrawn from the tourney. Yeah it's tough to compare it to another sports situation because it's 1) deliberately taking advantage of a rules loophole and 2) Golf specifically is self policing so nobody really looks for these kinds of loopholes, or at the very least, doesn't deliberately exploit them. What sport does not have people deliberately take advantage of rules loopholes?
  13. Boog Sciambi did a terrible job on the radio last night. I was driving and he'd tune out the game action repeatedly.

  15. How's everything going Yadi? And you Jon? http://images.amcnetworks.com/ifc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/tumblr_m62z16FD8T1qbhetko1_500.gif Two wins so far against the Cardinals and all I ask for today..., is a little something for daddy.
  16. It's been It's been awhile It's been quite a bit of time since the Cubs made a guy go around the bases and touch all four of them before three players were considered to be out. All joking a salad, it would be real neato if the Cubs won a galdurn baseball game again this month..., baby! I don't want to have to repeatedly jump out of this first floor window.
