  1. it's just kind of odd timing given he's been blazing hot for several games now
  2. [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  3. I can't even think of a national commercial Wade is in and Rodgers has had one of the most famous athlete ad campaign in recent existence.
  4. throw some horsefeathering strikes you jackass
  5. all you gotta do to get javy out is have him face a guy who is wild as horsefeathers and won't even accidentally throw a strike
  6. i remember being so excited for the first cubs/sox interleague game in 97 (i'm pretty sure foster pitched and they were wearing these crazy all dark blue throwbacks) that i stayed up all night/couldn't sleep...then come maybe 10 am i passed the hell out and slept through 90% of the game. lmao.
  7. Well, he said it was immoral. It's definitely not stupid to let the cities pay the bill. I read it like he meant "why are these stupid cities paying for stadiums the teams can absolutely afford," not "why is it wrong that cities are paying for it?" i did too. i was just trying to clarify that hating owners (especially extra shitty ones) doesn't necessarily conflict with what he posted about it being immoral but not stupid (of the owners).
  8. It opened 5 years after the Rogers Centre. Retratcable roofs were absolutely a thing I honestly had no idea. I remember it being a huge deal that Chase had one and I thought that was the first one. Was Chase just the first one to do it with real grass?
  9. With the Rangers, I at least understand that they built it before the retractable roofs were a thing and it's blazing hot there. The Braves and Diamondbacks ones are way more egregious to me.
  10. If Jeff Loria is ever murdered, you'd be my first suspect, so this is surprising coming from you Well, he said it was immoral. It's definitely not stupid to let the cities pay the bill.
  11. I don't think so...I think the vast majority here were against the trade that Mets fans and the media seemed to think was inevitable because TOO MANY SHORTSTOPS.
  12. this is horsefeathering stupid [tweet] [/tweet]

  14. This is a fun read [tweet] [/tweet]

  16. The stupid thing about this superstardom Twitter debate is that it's conflating two entirely different things. Superstardom as a player, which Bryant clearly and unequivocally is, and superstardom as a celebrity/famous person (which I couldn't give two shits about). It's entirely arguable that no baseball player is capable of that level of celebrity at this point in time. Baseball is still popular, but in a really regional way. Mike Trout isn't even a household name. He's well known among baseball fans, but outside that realm, ehhh. And I don't really care. That's a commentary on the state of baseball in terms of mainstream popularity and the way the country consumes it at this point. It's got just about nothing to do with Bryant or Trout or Harper.

  18. This is a perfect example of Dave Attel's "drinking = time travel" bit. lmao nah i was overhearing it at a restaurant as recently as 2 days ago.
  19. so i kept hearing all this talk about the cubs regretting not re-signing arrieta and how he's doing great in philly and i looked at his numbers and...uh...no? i mean i guess he hasn't given up many runs outside of getting shelled by the marlins, but he's not striking anyone out and he's still walking a lot of guys
