  1. All of my hitters are on the block if they fit a role on your team. I am moving to a set my team Monday and forgetting about it mode starting today.
  2. He is playing so badly right now. Needs to go to Memphis and work on some stuff.
  3. 1 for 20? We got one god-damn hit tonight. Great work boys.
  4. I didn't get a harrumph outta this guy.
  5. Are we sure that there is not something to this? Not saying to be famous, but a sense of not belonging leads to depression. Our “like” culture leads to wanting to be known. To be talked about. I do not think famous is the right word, but it seems horribly irresponsible to rule this out.
  6. I almost hate asking, but I am not ignorant to most gun talk! What is an LTC?
  7. Not trying to flame anything, but how many times have heard this recently? We did with Parkland if I am not mistaken.
  8. I do not have kids, but my siblings are 10-15 years younger than I am. I just noticed how much the “like” culture impacted them day-to-day. Thankfully, I did not grow up with social media. It is upping the maturation issues of kids. We all know that girls tend to develops faster than boys at younger ages. I truly think that most kids are not able to full reconcile the impacts that a seemingly harmless post can cause. I hate harping on social media, but there was a great discussion on the FB thread about letting your kids play football. I think the same should be asked of social media. Obviously, different reasons for saying no, or yes. This issue has so many levels, and no, not all/half of it is social media. Something needs to be done even if it only solves 10% of the issue. We are all too caught up in absolutes. Never will there be a 100% resolution, but the things that can prevent small pieces are the critical steps in 2018.
  9. I think you might be right with Va Tech. It would be interesting to see a stat overlay with each type of social media launch.
  10. When did the uptick really start? I would say that Columbine was the first OMG moment, but I would argue that Social Media was in full effect when the real swing started.
  11. I would say that it is the group that is being the most left behind.
  12. Unfortunately, the National Media is stupid as well.
  13. Even though my team is shit, I would like to thank Robbie Cano for the PED suspension. I wondered when I was going to lose Dee Gordon’s 2B eligibility, but I do not have to worry any longer!
  14. Anyone else playing Donkey Kong? I forgot how much I loved 2D side scrollers, but my damn ADD will not let me move past a level until I truly 100% it.
  15. I forgot all about this thread! My team has looked like crap so far, but some of that has been non-stop injuries.
  16. Isn’t the money much better for a driver in F1 over Indy? I just figured that the payday was not even close.
  17. I still hold out hope that Rossi somehow ends up at Haas.
  18. Waino has to move to the pen. Flaherty is as ready as he will be, and I have feeling that Reyes will be good to start full time by July 1. Of course, if Waino’s elbow is injured, he might be out for the year which is the end.
  19. Hey hey, I got a fucking win.
