  1. Do we really want spring training bitchassdness in the season thread? There’s a natural day off between the last exhibition game and the reg season opener against the Yankees.

    I just looked back at my texts and that year it was March 30.

    This.........is my life for the next 12 years minimum. I love baseball and I love youth baseball, but man it feels like I'm really getting myself into something. I've got three boys. Oldest is in first grade. Im coaching my 5 year olds team and the parents are already completely nuts. Im pretty disgusted with the way some of them act, so I told myself I can be a whiny pussy about it or coach myself and try to give the kids a somewhat sane experience. 

    It could be worse - you could have girls in softball. Softball dad coaches are sooooo much worse than baseball in my experience.

    Finally weighing in here. I’m so fucking worked up. 

    My wife and I have twins via IVF. The whole process was so emotionally taxing and filled with unknowns, worst fears, etc., but we are extremely lucky and it all worked out. 

    We also have a frozen embryo. Trying to figure out WTF to do now. I recall like it was yesterday the appointment where we had to agree what we would want to do with it, including hypotheticals of divorce, death of one of us, simultaneous death of both of us, etc. To think that we may not have that right going forward, and that it’s up to the fucking Texas GOP, is unfathomable.

    On the other hand, I suppose we could just keep the status quo of keeping it frozen, and threaten my children’s inheritance by telling them we will leave everything to their fucking Zygotesibling if they fuck up. I mean, that’s the logical conclusion, right?

  4. I don’t understand all of these stories of your dogs getting all of this shit that isn’t dog food. How does it not result in complete blowouts the following day? 

    This feels like a story that should be in this thread, but it was a buddy of mine. He gives his dog a fucking Slim Jim on a long roadtrip from Houston to the east coast while the rest of his family flies.  Unsurprisingly, the dog blows out in the car in east Louisiana (his wife’s, to boot 😂) and he has to go into some gas station dressed down to his skivvies since the dog shat all over him. 

    This is basically what my various dogs over the year do when they get “people food.” Maybe (obviously) this is a post for “my dog is awesome” thread, but what gives?

    7 rangers
    3 Yankees

    3 blue jays

    3 Braves 

    it’s not like we play anyone good the first 3 weeks of the season where we’ll need them.

     

    Cant wait to see Beilak against the Rangers and/or Braves multiple times!

    /E/ But don’t you know that wins in September and October JUST MEAN MORE?? /SPN/

    And, of course, a quick look at this Einstein’s profile confirms where we all assume he went to school. It’s just too perfect.

    Ambiguous stories about people out to get you leads to people forking over shitloads of money to help you out.
