  1. Fuck the Adams family. That was awesome. My 9 year-old son obviously has no emotional connection, but I explained how disrespectful and trolling it was, and we were jumping around like idiots when Fairbairn’s kick went through. Great win.
  2. I saw this guy in downtown Houston today. I was pretty confused when I saw the jersey before seeing the back. Now I want to find him and shake his hand. Edit - just went back a page, is this you @Francisco 2.0 ? 🤔😂
  3. I’m listening to an interview between Kalas and Dana - I presume it was today but not sure. He is gushing about Caratini and is shitting on Maldonado by everything he’s saying. Im sure it’s confirmation bias but he seems to imply Maldy was not good at the things he’s raving about Caratini - especially framing and, ya know, being an MLB caliber catcher.
  4. The only reason Ohtani could propose something like this is because he makes $50mm + in annual revenue from endorsements. Obviously Bregman and Altuve can’t afford to do something so crazy.
  5. I was joking. Sorta. Of course they wanted FSU, who wouldn’t? They got turbo fucked, I’d be most pissed if I was on that defense. Who’s to say they couldn’t shut down Michigan’s offense, give their offense some short fields and win a game 16-13? I think it was a terribad decision. Especially with the escape job Bama had against Auburn, you can’t say they are some juggernaut team right now.
  6. Maybe they were just catching their breaths after being terrified of Texas pulling the 4 seed and getting the good news just before.
  7. And this is why using Vegas odds to determine the “best” teams is completely flawed.
  8. Off topic (sorta) but I still can’t believe that kick wasn’t blocked. Went right through his arms.
  9. Crown his ass!
  10. Astros need to do aggressive alcohol sales and free handouts of Yankee, Dodger and Rangers gear at every game next year. It’s the only way.
  11. Glad that I was wrong about Espada not looking like the guy. Turns out they didn’t even interview anyone else. I still don’t get the delay in announcing the decision, but I fully support it as the right move. He was the obvious choice from a continuity and respect of the clubhouse perspective (Omar Lopez getting a look would have been fine too - maybe that was part of the consideration/delay). Anyhow, go Stros. A lot of that window is still open.
  12. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 223 9/9: Rarity: 50 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 Play at: https://immaculategrid.com @immaculategrid x @baseball_ref
  13. How it started (late July): How it’s going: She looks like ole Shaggy Bevo. Says hook ‘em against the Frogs 🤘🤘🤘
  14. I mean seriously what the fuck are we doing here. Doesn’t sound to me that Espada is the guy when (1) he wasn’t hired immediately and (2) our GM didn’t even know his fucking contract had expired. I was relieved to hear the dumbass Angels hired Ron. I can’t believe he was an actual candidate but I was also sure we would end up with him somehow. And Maldy of course.
  15. Brooks’s passing is atrocious. And he was bound to come down to earth on his 3pt%. But check this out. Like him or not, he is an elite defender even on a bad offensive night
  16. Cubs hiring Counsell (presumably at a big number given he wanted to “reset the market” for manager comp) and haven’t said anything about David Ross…
  17. Oh cut the shit. A WS title is a WS title. You sound like a bitter ex.
  18. Yup, anyone that listens to and quotes Clay Travis should be fucking laughed at. Lulz indeed.
  19. Well you have @Helobious and everything he touches turns to shit, so good fucking luck with that.
  20. I know this is supposed to be the lulz thread. But you’re saying that because younger men can beat professional women in basketball, women’s sports shouldn’t exist? You can go fuck yourself. I assume you’ve never been in a relationship with a woman and certainly don’t have a daughter. Let’s go ahead and keep it that way.
