  1. I have like $64 worth of MF points I want to burn before they yank them away.
  2. Yes, typically they put a lot of crap out there, then sneak in something good at some random hour.
  3. Predictably, musiciansfriend is having a Stupid Deal of the HOUR today. They don't show all the expired deals any more, so it requires regular checking if you're in a bargain buying mood.
  4. If it weren't for climate change none of us would be here in the first place. It's probably just time for us to be wiped out and replaced by higher forms that aren't such gaping pussies.
  5. Blinngineers?
  6. Rangers were doing a pretty good job building until they invested way too much crazy money on the olds and risky injury prone guys. You do that stuff on the cheap, not with the future of your franchise. They have done really well with some reclamation projects and rejects that produced better than expected. Then they piss it all away on a pipe dream and piss away younger prospects that become All Stars with other teams.
  7. I'm doing football tonight and can't watch the Rangers, so that should help add some potential good fortune to the good guys.
  8. But Rage totally fucking sucks other than a couple of songs I can rock to. And Morello is a massive douche and I don't like his guitar playing, and he can't sing a lick.
  9. I just like the music I like for the music. I couldn't give two shits for their political beliefs. If they express themselves in a musical way I can enjoy I can dig it. About 99% of great popular musicians aren't particularly good lyric writers anyway, and the ones that are often aren't particularly good musicians. The verbal part of the song is more like another musical instrument to me. If the lyrics are great, that's a bonus.

  11. Well, that seems like a shitass trade.
  12. Coulda took that one for the team.
  13. Same fuckin' double play. They've had this game won three times and still fucked it up.
  14. Did UH hire aggy engineers?
  15. I'm not a fan of Yorgo's style, but he got some shit done. Fuck the fudgepack deadass conference. I just wish he could have told Colorado to go pound sand.
  16. OK, you're right. Maybe they set it up that way to make room for makeup games. Who the hell knows. Baseball does weird shit.
  17. They don't want to compete with the first NFL game.
  18. Smaller bands?
  19. The Lions cut LS Jake McQuade yesterday, after signing him from the Cowboys last year. It's possible the Cowboys already have plans on getting him back.
  20. I'm guessing they think Iggy is a good fit for the hybrid thing they use in Quinn's defense. He was an LB to CB convert, they needed another body like that in the mix after losing Overshown.
  21. WOOHOOOO!!!
  22. That was a masterful strikeout. If only he could do that more consistently.
  23. Ump is trash. Nathanial is clutch!
  24. Got just enough to not have to water the plants this evening. About a tenth of an inch. Grass is still crunchy AF.
  25. Even if they squeak into the wild card round, they don't have the bullpen to get far, and not enough offensive depth. I was skeptical about them going all in with the trades, and this is why. They lost a few good pieces that could have served them better in the next couple of years, and now they look like another old team that won't have enough to get it done. At least Scherzer has another year, but I don't know if he'll be the same Max we hoped for. Montgomery was a really good pickup this year, but probably one and done. They're going to have to rebuild the bullpen yet again next year and get another starter or two, as they aren't likely to get help from the young phenoms in the system. They're basically back to where they started. Jung has been injury prone during his career, and if that remains a trend it's bad news. All that, and they're still paying DeGrom's hefty salary and getting zipola in return.
