  1. Can't wait to trade Kimbrel for two 17 year olds (one of which is named Brett Bretterson) and I'm told it's good or whatever.
  2. I remember thinking that team was way cool and amazing, and then I see Howry and Fontenot and Pie in the scrum, and I wonder if I was just wrong.
  3. I got FOUR pars the last time I played 18. FOUR! (I also hit a drive 370 yards, but that's because it was WAY downhill at 10,000 ft elevation) to be fair, you have to get it in the air for the elevation to help so you did that! I once hit a drive like that at that course near the AFA. Was it Eisenhower? I prob know the hole you're talking about.
  4. Figured I would give an update on this since it's been 5 months. I passed my written test 2 months ago and then my playing qualifying test 3 weeks ago. The target score that I had to beat that day was 159 (36 holes) on a course I've never played on (The Player's Club at Wooland Trails- which is where Ball State plays at). Ended up shooting 150 (77-73). Now all I have to do is start looking for jobs, apply, etc. Haven't decided where I want to move to yet. How is everyone's game coming along? I got FOUR pars the last time I played 18. FOUR! (I also hit a drive 370 yards, but that's because it was WAY downhill at 10,000 ft elevation)

  6. Spaeder is a horsefeathering clown. Yeah most of these seem pretty flimsy. Single season home and away splits? Like come on. From a lot of reporting from a lot of legit people it seems very likely the Yankees did something real bad in 2017, but the rest of these.... Yeah, apart from stuff like not having to travel and the crowd being on your side (which is an advantage in other sports), batting last is a pretty significant strategic advantage. Home teams winning in baseball is a significant thing.
  7. What they left out of that article was that Rahm was informed that one of his close contacts tested positive and THEN got vaccinated. It wasn't until he realized that he could actually miss tournaments (or get tested a lot) because he wasn't vaccinated that he got around to it. He does say that he "honestly wasn't thinking about it" which was clearly true. Whatever, his punishment more than fit the crime, I suppose.
  8. Your logic doesn't add up. Heyward being cautious about not getting it and refusing the vaccine are not related. Who is bashing anyone for getting the vaccine? His point is a strawman/whataboutism argument that is not legitimate unless he's going into the stands to sign autographs. Logic?! I can't even follow what the horsefeathers he's talking about. What is Heyward supposed to get credit for? Being old? I really have no clue what he's arguing.
  9. horsefeathers that. Hard pass.
  10. If Rizzo's doctors told him he can skip the vaccine, he needs better doctors.
  11. horsefeathers is going to be WILD around Mile High tonight. I'm honestly glad I'm not there.
  12. ...he got hit by a paper cup of diet pepsi
  13. Dang, the replay from behind the goal sure looks ...OH YEAH!
  14. So Jon Rahm was well on his way to winning the Memorial, with a record setting lead after 3 days, and then tested positive for Covid twice and had to withdraw after his round today. As an aside, this also topedoed my draftkings lineup that was in the top 100. Sad panda.
  15. Durag is not a derogatory term. But when you comment that past white players would never have worn one, what is it you are trying to say? Didn't he say it was the same one that Seaver did wear? The guy in the Survivor video got upset over the use of "durag" though. Again I don't live in the US and there doesn't seem to be the same connotation here in Canada so I wasn't understanding the reaction.
  16. I wish I had checked this thread out before commenting in the General Baseball Chit-Chat. I basically just did an amalogmated impression of everyone here.
  17. Long story short: Brenly was using “durag” as a derogatory comment since wearing a durag is conceived by unintelligent racist white people as something a poor black person wears. Jamal from Survivor breaks it down better than I could. Watch the video I posted. Gotcha'. Was completely unaware that there was a negative connotation with "durag". I live in Canada and have heard people - white, black, asian, indian - use "durag" pretty frequently - guys wear them for weekend softball, football etc. - not most, but it's certainly not uncommon. I shall make note for when the border re-opens. Durag is not a derogatory term. But when you comment that past white players would never have worn one, what is it you are trying to say? What's the point? If you've been obviously and weirdly critical of Hispanic players for your entire announcing (and prob coaching) career, the implication is pretty obvious: it was better when we didn't have ethnic players around with their flamboyant eye sore clothing and accessories. I'm stumped why we shouldn't be "sensitive" to horseshit like that. It isn't even subtile enough to be a dog whistle, ffs.
  18. If we were talking about Len or someone making this statement (who would never in a thousand years say that) this thread would be worth discussing. But we are talking about Bob horsefeathering Brenley, which is precisely Aramis's point. He's been doing this for decades, and it's ridiculous it's taken this long for any repercussions. Just IMAGINE taking Brenley's side over Aramis for anything, let alone this. Wtf is going on!?
  19. Thanks for the heads up. Not much I can do about it unless I turn off google ads, though. Hahaha!! Just a heads up, the ads are catered to your browsing history and the interests Google has deemed you have etc. Most of my ads are for cheap hipster golf balls, televisions and, this is weird, penis reduction surgery.
  20. "Salty" would be more accurate than "Brooksy"
  21. As a pink faced guy that is incapable of growing a full beard, I'll offer that he might not have a choice but to look like an Anthrax cosplayer.
