  1. Won big in Saturday’s first game, had a great comeback to tie our second game and stay in the top third of the bracket for Sunday, won big Sunday morning (much thanks to my wife, no pics, for jumping on the 8am first pitch grenade), rolled in our quarterfinal game. All in all a good performance for such a stacked tournament. The Texas 12 from Katy won it, and how they aren’t in Majors is a mystery (it’s not a mystery, you get 12 guesses why). They are insane: Again, good showing and an overall good weekend. Pitchers were throwing strikes our last game and the kids were just smoking good pitchers. Over the fence grand slam didn’t help!
  2. Sounds like from the radio guys that his changeup is looking pretty filthy. That’s great news.
  3. Jon Doubleton not ready to give up his spot, apparently
  4. Gonna take down HG no problem. LFG!!!!
  5. Stewed Buttwads and Jobu’s Refill
  6. I take Viking Quest, no idea the handle
  7. Man, looking at this years player rankings make me sick I didn’t win it last year. 10 wins more than anyone else in the reg season and choked in the playoffs. Oh wells thems the breaks. I also think this is the second straight year Derka has had 3rd pick and I’ve had 4th pick. Or maybe it was 4th and 5th last year. Anyhow, y’all are fucked, I gotta get back into Gandorf and Derka territory and get my third ring. This is that year.
  8. I hope we get a video of Derkamama. Good way to kick off the season!
  9. Do we really want spring training bitchassdness in the season thread? There’s a natural day off between the last exhibition game and the reg season opener against the Yankees. I just looked back at my texts and that year it was March 30.
  10. I never really considered the irony of his last name til now. He surely Paxverylittle.
  11. Speaking of, can we please get a consensus on the date the regular season thread should start? I don’t want @henrygandorf and @Hank Kingsley to have to issue an amber alert again if I’m tied up and not watching this thread on D-Day. Wednesday, March 27?
  12. Ah, too bad. I was in the middle of replying and came back to it after the last two posts. Our Super NIT games are at Pecan Park in La Porte/Texas City/Pasagetdowndena.
  13. So, Surly tailgate in La Porte this weekend @Jshep34 and @closetojumping? Mine is 9U AAA. Good luck this weekend! Only bummer is having to miss the ballgames at Minute Maid.
  14. It could be worse - you could have girls in softball. Softball dad coaches are sooooo much worse than baseball in my experience.
  15. Yeah, complaining in February is really knitpicky.
  16. Finally weighing in here. I’m so fucking worked up. My wife and I have twins via IVF. The whole process was so emotionally taxing and filled with unknowns, worst fears, etc., but we are extremely lucky and it all worked out. We also have a frozen embryo. Trying to figure out WTF to do now. I recall like it was yesterday the appointment where we had to agree what we would want to do with it, including hypotheticals of divorce, death of one of us, simultaneous death of both of us, etc. To think that we may not have that right going forward, and that it’s up to the fucking Texas GOP, is unfathomable. On the other hand, I suppose we could just keep the status quo of keeping it frozen, and threaten my children’s inheritance by telling them we will leave everything to their fucking Zygotesibling if they fuck up. I mean, that’s the logical conclusion, right?
  17. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 324 9/9: Rarity: 28 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 And since I’m a day late, not in spoilers:
  18. I don’t understand all of these stories of your dogs getting all of this shit that isn’t dog food. How does it not result in complete blowouts the following day? This feels like a story that should be in this thread, but it was a buddy of mine. He gives his dog a fucking Slim Jim on a long roadtrip from Houston to the east coast while the rest of his family flies. Unsurprisingly, the dog blows out in the car in east Louisiana (his wife’s, to boot 😂) and he has to go into some gas station dressed down to his skivvies since the dog shat all over him. This is basically what my various dogs over the year do when they get “people food.” Maybe (obviously) this is a post for “my dog is awesome” thread, but what gives?
  19. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 320 9/9: Rarity: 90 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 That bottom right % might be the lowest I’ve ever seen
  20. Most especially any manager that pinch hits him with the bases loaded in a fucking playoff game instead of Chad McCormick. Thanks for bringing back that memory I had suppressed.
  21. Seriously. Any GM that would give Dana value for JS should be fired immediately.
