    NFL Offseason

    it's preseason NFL and all, but i think it's funny the kicker the bucs traded up to take in the 2nd round has missed two FG already
  3. seeing stuff on twitter and really sad i'm not going to PJ anymore :(
  4. pretty glad we didn't trade javy or georgie for mcgee
  5. Miggy will be a solid backup next year.
  6. when he says hitters "crunched" balls, it makes me irrationally angry

    NFL Offseason

    if anyone else is an nfl films junkie, the all or nothing show about the 2015 az cardinals is good. probably better than this year's hard knocks.
  8. i mean, i'm sure DeRo would say all kinds of meatbally stuff but that's ok because he's such a cool guy, that dero. i'd go rock climbing with him.
  9. the play by play is really bad, but it has nothing to do with my distaste for his bumbling goofy country bumpkin sounding ass. he's not good at speaking. he isn't funny or anything (as far as a redeeming quality) and i really have no idea what the basis is for saying he's solid..his analysis is generally as meatbally and conventional old school wisdom as anyone (not that most of his peers in his profession are generally much better - so maybe that's where you're coming from?) i don't like a single thing about him. the pbp is just icing on the cake. The distaste for his voice is largely a person by person opinion, but the other important thing to remember is that the bar isn't high here. Color guys who are truly good aren't going to be doing radio, so we shouldn't be hoping for much more than a good rapport with their partner(Ron has this, Moreland painfully did not), and an ability to add descriptions to plays to round out the listening experience(Ron is okay at this). There are no radio versions of JD. i mean, i agree as far as the rapport with pat. that's about the only thing i find OK about him.
  10. i mean...at least he's not joe carter?

  12. There's no logical explanation other than they wanted to keep it "Pat and Ron" after Santo died, because reasons that's funny but they already had moreland in between lol
  13. i wish dero had been interested in our radio job but instead we have horsefeathering ron coomer seriously, think about it...how the hell did we end up with ron horsefeathering coomer as our radio color guy?!
  14. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=np&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&type=13&season=2016&month=0&season1=2016&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=10,d lmao yeah i was gonna say you have to be pretty stupid to think this offense sucks against anything, but this is an even better response
  15. what was it?
  16. i'm just annoyed that this is a saturday night game give me all the night games during the week but saturdays are for day games (unless i'm going to it and then it's sort of fun)
  17. lmao jurassic park i didn't hear the exchange but it feels like that's just a joke JD would make
  18. He closed both ends of a doubleheader Tuesday, had a day off, closed yesterday, and threw a bunch in the pen tonight. He's human. Garbage human My point was I was against the trade at the time because even he isn't good enough to be enough of an upgrade over what we had to make a tangible impact worth giving up what we gave up (especially for a couple months). Even with the bad luck of suddenly having our other two best relievers hurt, it's actually playing out even worse than that.
  19. I seriously thought if I had to root for this garbage person at least he'd actually be good enough to be worth feeling like an horsefeathers
  20. Why did we trade gleyber for this piece of horsefeathers again
  21. Uhh is he just throwing changeups tonight
  22. Uhh is he just throwing changeups tonight
  23. Not sure but I'm expecting 104 mph works just as well at Coors
