  1. Analytics can tell you a lot, including shit that isn’t true. Not everything in life or baseball can be quantified.
  2. We still really haven’t cracked a game open in this series to our full offensive potential, yet.
  3. They’re in a heated situation with a lot of money and glory on the line. And the Rays are feeling historic pressure. With that said, yeah, it’s probably about Yandy being a pussy.
  4. Fuck yes. This is amazing. Why not? We’re talented as fuck.
  5. Bring on Embiid, please. We’ve been in serious need of an impact big since Harden got here. He’s never had big help. Capela I loved but he disappeared every playoff.
  6. I’m sorry but that’s extremely short sighted. It’s rare for an interim coach to do better than the person he replaced, history is firmly behind that. You’re already paying the guy, and whoever you hire to replace him is extremely unlikely (read, absolutely not going to) come in to coach for the Baylor game, so just get as much out of him as you can knowing it’s not going to be great, prepare your pitch and initiate conversations where possible with the replacement, and bite the bullet for the remainder of the year.
  7. It will be interesting to see how we find our other two or three losses this year. Will it be from the same old shit? Or will new cracks emerge as his control over the team erodes to none? Tune in each week to find out.
  8. Looked like a completely different team. Looked like they were having fun for the first time in a long time. Jags are not good, but progress is progress.
  9. At some point, your defense has to stop giving up 1.75 games worth of yards and points to unranked teams.
  10. Urban, as a part of your deal, you are free to come and burn Tom’s house to the ground with his furniture and personal effects still inside.
  11. Our DB makes a poor leg tackle 17 yards down the field and gets up and flexes. First down OU. Pretty much sums us up.
  12. Jose Urquidy has thrown 14.1 playoff innings, with a 1.26 ERA and 15/4 K-BB split. Lets fucking go.
  13. In the playoffs reliability is king. Attaboy Framber. Dude is on top of the world right now. Now let’s make it official on the stat sheet.
  14. Fortunately, with Deshawn, we don’t ever necessarily need to ‘rebuild’. We should be good with him and someone who actually knows how to use him, and improving as we go from a personnel look.
  15. I would join in on trade/draft pick talk but if we can hire a competent GM that should work itself out. We really haven’t had a top-level GM since the franchise coined, you figure at some point the math says it’ll probably happen.
