  1. was it really wrong? It was closer than I thought on replay. The complicating thing is that he was so far up the baseline, which is mostly in his control because he was already camped there and not ranging to get a bad throw. That also means that even standing on the line pretty much leaves you no clear lane to the plate because you have to loop around the guy just to get to the circle. But the runner was coming from way outside the basepath anyway as he rounded third. He had a clear lane but chose to stay out to avoid the tag. I don't understand the rule entirely but on the surface it didn't seem to be some egregious mistake.
  2. Pirates? I honestly have nothing against them at all. Pirates fans are Steelers fans so F them.
  3. I assume the rule allows for standing flush with the baseline, since beyond the baseline is a clear path to the plate.
  4. Baseball players can't fight. (also Rizzo's face is too tiny for even a boxer to connect with)
  5. Mets fan should be more aware of Generation K scenario. Talented pitching prospects are nice and all, but a farm system based on pitching prospects is destined to disappoint.
  6. How so? Niese is two years younger and their numbers are not that far off. 2014: Shark: 2.3 bWAR, 3.02 FIP, 141 ERA+ Niese: 1.7 bWAR, 3.62 FIP, 118 ERA+ See, you just compared them, they are comparable.
  7. Samardzija is more of a longterm lease than a rental.
  8. You don't think the Mets have good young pitching? Even if you want to foolishly disregard Harvey and Syndergaard, they have 4 other guys who have already had success in the majors and are under control until 2020. Wheeler Niese Gee Degrom Plus 2 more top 100 pitching prospects in Rafael Montero and Steven Matz. So all in all you're looking at: Harvey Wheeler Syndergaard Niese Degrom Gee Montero Matz Why wouldn't we be excited? :S http://cdn.newsday.com/polopoly_fs/1.2688890.1297803756!/httpImage/image.JPG_gen/derivatives/display_600/image.JPG

  10. You get a walk and you get a walk and you get a walk
  11. Bailey is getting pissed at the #VoteRizzo movement and pegs him in the elbow.

  13. In my mind that was a great movie, am I wrong?
  14. women with bodies that aren't mirror images of Justin Bieber?
  15. If any of these prospects turn out good they also will be bound to be expensive.
  16. Well, I had "waiter" in the uniform category too. So, chef would be in that category. Honestly, didn't know we had any actual chefs on here. Cooks, i could see, but not trained chefs. Congrats. Pretty cool job, IMO, that I always wished I had the ability to do. There are perks, but you had better REALLY enjoy cooking or you will be miserable. It is a serious commitment while making [expletive] money for the first several years. I don't love cooking now. But I think it's because I'm not very good at it. I do love the grill, and I'm working on getting better at that. But I love the thought of being responsible for some amazing food at my own restaurant. Bobby Flay may be my hero. I've been cooking professionally for 20 years and in New Orleans for 15. My 2 heroes are Rick Bayless and a much lesser known guy in Bill Smith. OMC may have heard of him since he has MS roots. He brings rural Southern cooking to restaurants with fine dining skill. It's very approachable, unpretentious yet awesome food, done REALLY well. http://www.crookscorner.com/smith.htm Where are you chefing at these days?
  17. No Smoking hot as in she looks like somebody who was hot but smoked too much and ruined themselves.
  18. Do you think Rizzo has his phone on the field retweeting all these #voterizzo tweets?
  19. Rumor has it he's about to sign for more than $6.5M. Between that, Kolek's $6M bonus, and Aiken's whole situation I'm pretty happy with Schwarber (currently sporting a .432/.510/.864 line across two levels) for $3.125M. I'm more than pretty happy, I love it.
