  2. honestly worried karius will be a danger to himself tonight
  3. what did i just see
  4. shoutout to sergio ramos goonery for depriving us of 90 minutes of salah in the final, hopefully he’s okay for the world cup

  7. Counterpoint: I have Morrow so this is delightful
  8. Gorkys don't you do that to Carl, he's a small target but I'll still hunt you down if you hurt him
  9. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ME ADD ADDENDUMS LIKE 'ALSO DON'T BUNT WITH RUSSELL W/ 2 ON AND NO OUT IN A 2-0 COUNT AGAINST A LHP WITH LASTELLA ON DECK' cripes
  10. Yeah overall don’t mind the gamble in general. Seemed overly risky from the radio and bord tho and also he’s gotta be aware how slow Almora is. It wasn't even much about Almora, Williamson caught the ball on a hop like 20 feet from the infield, the only way a runner faster than Almora scores is if the throw forced Posey to field the ball on a hop two steps wide of the base.
  11. Butterfield has been fine, that was a bad send. In general I'd rather get thrown out a bit more than leave runs/bases on the table, but that was just too shallow for being thrown out to be anything but an extremely likely outcome.
  12. In many cases the player can update them yearly or with some regularity.
  13. From watching part of a Mizzou game last week, they appear to have index cards with signs on them.
  14. I had the benefit of another tweet explaining it, but what makes it so much worse is that there are 2 outs and there is no force at home.
  15. I have a theory that writers inflate trade costs because they don't want to deal with angry responses from fans of the trading team and they don't want to hear breathless hypotheticals from people who think trading 3 average players for Mike Trout adds up. Also, the more blockbustery the trade the better from a media perspective.
  16. Yeah Marlon, we all kinda figured when you posted 4 of the 5 best ISOs of your career starting at age 36.
  17. I mean, this literally just happened last year, almost to the letter. Last year the Cubs were 5.5 games out of first and 2 games under .500 at the all star break. They won the division by 6 games and the last week of the season was functionally meaningless. Be as mad or disappointed as you want, but it's real hard to feel like they're remotely in uncharted waters. And then they were tired in the NLCS. And Maddon, Theo, Jed etc went on the radio this Spring Training and said the goal was to get off to a better start this year to avoid that. I don't care about the lies you tell yourself to remain upset.
  18. last season taught me not to expect it to be easy, but i didn't think it would be like this. it could/should change in an instant, but i'm past the point of expecting it to. it's just not worth it to be invested in the team right now. every day should be the day the brewers fall off and the cubs take off, and it just won't happen. it's still early, but its not THAT early.
