    Definitely have no issues using them nor am I grossed out by them in any way. My body just gets all jacked up when I'm out of town and I'm basically constipated for 24-48 hrs. Not a conscious decision in any way. From what I understand, this happens to lots of people. I wonder if it's some sort of animal/territory instinct related thing This is only quasi-related but I read recently that when you sleep in a new place for the first time, your the left side of your brain remains partially alert to remain guarded. That's why a lot of people don't get quality sleep in a hotel, or at least the first night.

    You guys are weird about public toilets. Or maybe I'm just used to having no choice as I have a sensitive stomach and find myself in dire need of a bathroom more often than most.

    Based on the fact that this guy live in Arkansas, I'm guessing he's a Cardinals fan discussing why Yadi should be on the AS team [tweet]https://twitter.com/PhilRyanLaRue/status/750483812010692609[/tweet]

    Duncan was drafted after the lockout, Jordan never was a Bull against him. He played in 97-98, Jordan's last year as a Bull
  5. UMFan83
    I only know because I read it somewhere yesterday when googling whether this person made the ASG (he didn't)
  6. UMFan83
    Duncan officially retired today. Dammit, no Kobe or Duncan in the NBA anymore? I believe that makes Kevin Garnett the last active NBA player to play the Jordan/dynasty Bulls.

    IIRC, it is often given to the the top prospect that has a good game instead of the guy with the best game. I was reading on twitter that Eloy didn't win it because they wanted to avoid giving the award to a Cubs prospect in consecutive years (Schwarbs won it last year). Not sure if that is fact or random twitter speculation

    So the Marlins All-Stars are taking a bus from Miami? Hope they make it to SD on time.

    We traded for Brian Roberts. This dude?
  10. UMFan83
    I guess he was worth a half a win yesterday. On the topic of WAR, why does Rizzo always grade out so poorly at 1B? He seems like a pretty competent defender overall. Also thought he was a decent baserunner and he has negative marks there too.
  11. UMFan83
    Whose WAR are you using? Edit: I guess it's conceivable Crawford jumped the other 2 yesterday
  12. UMFan83
    And I believe he is considerably ahead of Seager for 1st in NL

    He's gotta be the MVP of this game

    Omg he just made a fantastic catch leaping acrobatically over the railing and hung on. Hard to describe but it was a fantastic catch
  17. UMFan83
    RBI double down the line and scored on a single
  18. UMFan83
    I tried to reach out to him just now. Has anyone else that has talked to Fred off this board tried to reach out since he us been missing from the board?

    Pretty good finish to regular time with France getting a flury of opportunities including one off the post in the 90th minute.
  20. UMFan83
    I think it's also key that we won a close one. For a couple of weeks now it seemed like whenever we had a small lead something would happen to ruin it. This time we had that moment with the Baez brain fart and sac fly but we managed to overcome it.
  21. UMFan83
    The difference between 7.5 game lead and 5.5 feels huge to me. 7 unless Rosenthal blows another save
  22. UMFan83
    If we get on a roll again I think I will actually appreciate it even more how good we are
  23. UMFan83
    Please just finish this one off Rondon. I will feel so much better going into the next 4 days
  24. UMFan83
    Seriously. Passed ball on K, then a double play grounder hit just a little bit too slow
  25. UMFan83
    Of course. Bad luck continues
