  1. What’s your set up?
    Easiest is if you have MLB at bat app
    I do, I will try it out again tonight. I may have been drunk and clicked on the wrong button feed previously but I remember it being the national radio guys on the kbme stream

    Let's fuckin do this boys!

    They should, and he should sue the organization and the NYT. Let him have his day in court and they can explain how saying “I fucking love Osuna” = “I love domestic violence”

    Exhibit A...the purple braclet

     

    His wrongdoing was not about the domestic violence issue but workplace harassment. He was targeting Footer because she's been vocal about the DV issue on Twitter often when Osuna entered games and he broke his proverbial bat over his knee and grabbed his junk at her at a time when the team didn't need that stupid fucking distraction. He's an asshole, apparently. 

    How the fuck do you do that to Footer?

    Fair 'nuff, I'm focused. 

    I will admit though that I'm slightly triggered, but not because of the domestic violence angle; going back to the previous eras of Hunsicker/Wade/Purpura etc, the know-it-all fantasy nerds/sabermetrics guys always pissed me off because they constantly lampooned the Astros even when we were in the playoffs or at least competitive. Taubman strikes me as one of those arrogant young know-it-all pricks who thinks he's figured it all out and likes to proclaim himself the smartest guy in the internet chat room. I really hope Luhnow is more like AJ Hinch and less like Brandon Taubman. 

    My .02.

  4. The only appropriate action the Astros can take after the monumental arrogance, stupidity, and drunken belligerence Taubman put on display for a cadre of reporters covering the ALCS is to fire Taubman. There is no excuse for his behavior and the shittastic handling of it by everyone in the PR department and front office, including Jeff Luhnow, reflects poorly on the Astros as a professional organization. 

    I love the Houston Astros, they are my ride or die, but I'm ashamed of their handling of this easily-corrected situation.

    Baseball is fantastic on the radio...

    Yeah, I was a fucking nervous wreck at the top of the ninth with Osuna on the mound. My internet TV is behind everything so my buddies texts always let me know when shit happens before I see it. I was too goddamn knotted up to deal with those last three outs to close it out, so I sat in my car to listen to the call on the radio and am glad I did because that LeMahieu bomb was devastating. 

    I did watch the bottom half on TV and woke the neighborhood running down the street screaming into the night sky.
