  1. You mean 5 errors in 13 games is bad? I miss Javy.
  2. Would be hilarious if this crap team did it after the 2015-18 teams couldn’t.
  3. Fuck Chelsea. I hate them so much. Trash defending gifts Arsenal two goals plus they give away a dumb penalty.
  4. Nobody wants 4th place apparently. Spurs couldn’t even manage a shot on goal at home against Brighton today.
  5. In the 4th inning. LOL. I think we can officially say Maddon has lost his mind. Seaver’s career OPS against righties is only 87 points higher than against lefties so it’s not even like he’s got some absurd platoon split where he just annihilates righties, not that having one would justify this.
  6. And taken out of the game. He'd thrown 80 pitches. Baseball can be really horsefeathering stupid sometimes. Yeah, that’s lame. 80 pitches. He’s a vet. You’re up 6-0. Unless Kershaw himself said he wanted out of the game, there’s 0 reason to take him out.
  7. Kershaw perfect through 7.
  8. You were paying attention to the wrong Rickett's team. Ha! I actually forgot about those also until they were almost done.
  9. Had no idea this was a day game until a friend texted me that Suzuki donged again.
  10. stupid chelsea I don’t like Real but I’m pretty sure the only times I’ve ever rooted for Chelsea are when it benefits Spurs or some other outcome in the league/UCL that I’d prefer to happen. No number of Americans on their team will ever get me to root for them.
  11. Stupid Real Madrid.
  12. [tweet] [/tweet] Can’t say I’ve ever seen this before.
  13. He scored at a higher rate than Wilt did in his 100 point game. I know that the Bucks had their reserves in but that stat line would be nuts in an All Star game when they’re not even trying on defense.
  14. Yeah, feels like Man City missed a chance to all but bury Liverpool, especially since it was at home and Liverpool didn't play all that well. I think it was a pretty fair result but like you said, Man City will definitely feel worse about it. A win today and they could have blown one of their 7 remaining games and still won the title.
  15. We’ll that didn’t take long to blow the lead.
  16. I'm by no means a "throw at the other team on purpose" guy. However, that culture still exists in MLB. The Brewers hit three Cubs in the game so they had to figure something might be coming. I know Thompson missed on the first pitch and that could be viewed as missing his shot so he shouldn't take a second one. But he also plunked Cutch in the hip. Not up in the head/neck area or upper back where it's close to the head. McCutchen doesn't have to be happy about it but just take your base at that point. Benches clearing over that was dumb.
  17. As for top of the table, City-Liverpool was a fun game. Liverpool has the slightly tougher run in but I don't think anyone would be surprised if either team wins out.
  18. Great week for me in the race for 4th. Spurs win twice, Arsenal loses twice, ManU picks up 1 point from two games, including losing at Everton, and West Ham loses to Brentford. There are still 3 H2H games left between the four teams (Arsenal at Spurs, ManU at Arsenal, Arsenal at West Ham) plus each team still has at least one game against the top-3 (ManU and West Ham have 2). Should be a fun last few weeks.
  19. I had the opposite reaction. I thought Cain was going to turn around all of a sudden and catch the ball. He’s done that a few times over the years.
  20. So you don't think playing El Salvador and Grenada twice each will help us prepare for England, Iran and UEFA qualifier? All of the Nation's League tournaments are dumb, albeit for different reasons. For us specifically, as you said, it's a colossal waste of time and largely doesn't help us get better as a team.
  21. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/33666138/anthony-davis-ponders-been-injury-riddled-los-angeles-lakers-lose-sixth-straight Well there's one.
  22. I’ll be interested to see if he can drive the ball straight or if he tries to hit them with too much speed and they just go all over the course.
