  1. Or so they tell you. It's an impressive work if that's the case, since they haven't changed any of the other ones in years to fool me. There are 30ish members with "custom" monikers, though half of them are along the lines of "my old username was XXX" Apparently Roast's is "Maximo Ali"
  2. That's just your steroids talking well I guess we’ll see when we never ever ever ever hear if the kid is ok. Never change. See you in 3 months with your next horsefeathers post
  3. I am horsefeathering convinced you are a performance artist that is trying to be wrong about every single thing on the internet as some type of thought experiment. horsefeathering crap dude. That's just your steroids talking
  4. No way. That was a really emotional scene and Albert's reaction both when it happened and an inning later makes it very newsworthy. Well if the parents choose not to share the kid's status, there is no story, so we'll see.
  5. Really, really hope this is the case. Almora breaking down in tears out of relief instead of bad news is the best news we can hope for
  6. Unfortunately, the only way anyone hears an update about the kid is if something tragic happens. Unless the Houston newspaper prints a blurb about how the kid is doing okay, we're unlikely to hear anything
  7. Yes. This shouldn't be left up to the owners. And it shouldn't take someone dying to make it happen (I'm looking at you, NHL) People always argue it away with some variation of, "well, you should be paying attention to the game/stay off your phones/don't bring kids to those seats." Outside of the obvious reasons why the latter is beyond dumb for a sport that desperately needs kids to be into it, the whole "pay attention" way of blaming the victim is nonsense when the entire experience is designed by the teams to distract you. What, all the vendors and foods and drinks and scoreboard stuff aren't also competing for attention during the game? Come on. Tangentially, people who say "real men don't bring baseball gloves to games" can pound sand. Having a glove on can save someone from serious injury.
  8. What’s this say? [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  9. I"m hping that the fact that the fans seem to be watching the game and aren't monitoring where that Almora foul hit means that things aren't dire
  10. They all should have a while ago. Yes. This shouldn't be left up to the owners. And it shouldn't take someone dying to make it happen (I'm looking at you, NHL)
  11. Homers are great. Maybe we should try hitting some with men on base some time
  12. Not if Almora's arm stinks* * I don't actually know if his arm stinks
  13. Bucknor's strike zone better be this wide for Kyle
  14. I'll take any cheap homer this dumb ballpark wants to give us. Also, Bryant struck out on 5 balls
  15. Why not both? The having sex part, im guessing Well I HAVE been married for over 20 years, so you're not wrong
  16. Talking more about the way that a story was posted than the actual story is the most NSBB thing ever. Never change
  17. No, I just didn't find a corroborating article from a beat writer at the time I posted it, so I was acknowledging that this was a second hand news story, that's all
  18. [tweet] [/tweet] It's BN, so take that for what its worth
  19. Yes, because this horsefeathers roster is somehow Maddon’s fault. Granted, he's just a relatively small part of the problem, but seeing him get bounced would bring me such glee. Do you want Girardi or Sandberg as your manager? Because that's how you get Girardi or Sandberg as your manager
  20. Out outfield positioning has been horrible this game
  21. I think the Descalso experiment has enough data
