  1. Heyward stands so far off the plate that he and Rizzo could bat at the same time
  2. Did Darling just invoke the Gambler's Fallacy when describing Zimmerman vs. Hendricks?
  3. Ron Darling's awfulness is compounded by the fact that Ernie Johnson never talks. Darling fills the dead air with word salad
  4. There's probably three uglier dudes in his own bullpen. All relief pitchers are monsters (except Carl Jr....dreamy)
  5. Why are there only like 15 people in this thread right now?
  6. Man, what a terrible broadcast team. The defending champs deserve better than Ron horsefeathering Darling
  7. I'll take this version of Kluber in the WS please
  8. That's clearly not true. It's discussed all the time. And it's not "weirdo" to be annoyed that your team earned a better draw in the first round than they got
  9. I'm not super scared of any of the NL matchups, but Houston and Cleveland will make me lose sleep
  10. What gooney said. While the Western Conference was pretty "normal" in terms of seeding, the Eastern Conference was a mess. Because of the mandatory divisional series, you had a first round of 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 3, 4 vs. 5, and 6 vs. 7. Well, the schedule is unbalanced. This happened in the Western Conference in 2014 when the #2 seed Blues played the #3 Blackhawks. Its not really a big deal other than losing in the first round instead of the second. You have to beat four teams to win the Cup, blaming the format is silly. Besides the reason for this is because the West is split among 3 time zones while the East just one. Columbus and Detroit are now in the East where travel is easy, complaining is rather funny. How is it funny? Columbus had the 3rd best record in the East and their reward was to play the eventual Cup champs instead of a team like Ottawa. It's nonsense.
  11. I don't think baseball playoffs need to change, but please explain this. What exactly was dumb about that? What gooney said. While the Western Conference was pretty "normal" in terms of seeding, the Eastern Conference was a mess. Because of the mandatory divisional series, you had a first round of 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 3, 4 vs. 5, and 6 vs. 7.
  12. Shame on anyone who wants to emulate the NHL playoffs. The divisional rounds are dumb and bad in hockey. Columbus playing Pittsburgh in the first round was beyond dumb. Boo that idea
  13. Some funny stuff, but the write up for Columbus was lame
  14. Yeah. No need to overuse him and have him worn out by Game 7. Game 7? Why so pessimistic?
  15. Any chance TT tips this server?
  16. Holy horsefeathers, how is this even a choice for you? Your reading comprehension is poor Did I miscount the number of "y"s or something? "Why does this have to be MNF and up against a cub playoff game?" Doesn't have a lot of interpretations
