  1. Not bad. Besides when I was actually watching the game, I don't think I could have told you the sequence of events that led to Michale McDonald or whatever his name is in the last AB. I think the whole Javy bunt strikeout rage probably blocked it from my memory, but good for JHey to contribute to the actual game, not just the locker room. I remember being livid with Maddon during the game, but I had forgotten the deets. Holy horsefeathers.
  2. I'm also a landlord, but my wife is handier than me so she does all that blue collar stuff. (Except for plumbing stuff and electrical stuff, she hates that.) Pretty sweet deal for me! The trick is to get tenants who don't suck, and then when you don't screw them over and respond to their issues, everyone is happy. I don't get why everyone doesn't do it this way. My first tenants were awesome and I was great to them. My house was built in the 1870's and flooded during Katrina (which made it pretty cheap, obviously), so the maintenance is a little trickier than the average place. It's been a crapshoot since that couple, though. Sometimes the good ones turn to horsefeathers over time. I've had good luck with yuppie stoners. Find them and make them stay.
  3. Well, yeah. It's not as if landlords are all rolling around in piles of money. I busted ass doing work on a rental property mostly from info on YouTube videos because I couldn't afford to pay workers to hang sheetrock. I've been burned by tenants who didn't pay rent, money that I depended on to make the house payments. Tenants have secretly sublet my place out for Mardi Gras to frat boys who trashed the place and pissed off the neighbors. It's a vital part of my income, not some scheme to screw over people and get rich. That house is nearly as much a full time job as my real full time job. I'm also a landlord, but my wife is handier than me so she does all that blue collar stuff. (Except for plumbing stuff and electrical stuff, she hates that.) Pretty sweet deal for me! The trick is to get tenants who don't suck, and then when you don't screw them over and respond to their issues, everyone is happy. I don't get why everyone doesn't do it this way.
  4. the pièce de résistance is that the first penalty wiped out a 4th down and directly led to a TD, and Flowers spent a lot of time spiritedly conveying to the field judge or whoever what a clown call it was and why, only to have him again blow it even worse a few minutes later Yes, that is what occurred.
  5. I lived in Arizona for a few years. In Gilbert, specifically, back when it was just an orange grove next to the desert. I routinely woke up with gigantic wolf spiders crawling on me. It was awesome. Oh, and yes, they really do like to crawl into your mouth.

  7. Sure, that game was bonkers, but the idea that the Packers get often get FAVORABLE calls to win NFL football games is a new concept to me.
  8. This is a joke, right? RIGHT? His ability to state "a slider low and away probably gets him here" on every two strike count was unparalleled and beloved by all.
  9. No train outta Junction lessen yer a hog or a cattle. People train run outta Stubbville.
  10. Your honor, my client was busy murdering childen in Iowa, and couldn't possibly have done what you accuse him of.
  11. Update: https://twitter.com/nelsonagholor/status/1176288623550853120
  12. SAVAGE HERO!!!!
  13. I'm just here to see if Gase has savaged anything thus far.
  14. ...is that a pick up game of his first family against his second family?
  15. They did score 55 in the previous 4 games.. http://0.media.dorkly.cvcdn.com/89/50/2166d0ef0c8839c75e67c63220ae0acf.gif
  16. Losing a year of development to injury time is not a point in a player's favor. Yeah, duh But acting like those numbers mean jack in a handful of games is silly. He will be up here by 23. Pretty standard age to come to MLB. Not concerned. We already know you aren't concerned about concerning things.
