  1. That would make sense one of the very few characters universally liked. but if that’s the case, it’s not exactly like he’s getting any good intel from Navarro because they don’t have a clue what they’re doing
  2. Next year, after our 8th straight LCS, should be something like: ”Death, taxes,…”
  3. I think I like it… could backfire if guys like Framber and Javier don’t revert to 2022 form. “That starting rotation is relentless at giving up 6+ in 3 innings”
  4. Yes this will be more expensive than what folks are used to today. It was always going to end this way. all the other crap in cable packages subsidized the sports fan, so as the “unbundling” happens, the true cost of the sports networks gets exposed. and streaming has been a loss leader for all of these entities as they tried to acquire market share and they are just now trying to flip the switch on how to become profitable. (Higher subscription fees, ad-supported options, etc) Disney has said for a while they would be rolling out a streaming option for its espn networks. It is interesting they decided they were better off patterning with others rather than offering their assets by itself. I just don’t see how this doesn’t suppress the rights fees paid to the leagues. The NBA’s is currently in negotiations. Will be interesting to see how that deal ends up looking https://www.wsj.com/business/media/streaming-venture-from-espn-fox-and-warner-blindsides-sports-leagues-e6c1fbcc
  5. I’m fascinated at the thought of who the third is going to be to join Toby and Mojo. Everyone in Mungo Jerry doing well?
  6. Unfortunately, I can pretty much guarantee the word “boy” was used in conversations between Walker and Morgan.
  7. I’m holding out hope the last two episodes are going to be a furious mash of connecting a million dots… but then the preview for ep 5 shows mine protests and I fear we’re going to go down another rabbit hole of meandering storylines…
  8. Right. I said it above but I don’t get the matter-of-fact “Astro for life”. I’d love it but I don’t see him getting 953 hits in the next 6 years. So if 3,000 is a big deal to him, he’s going to need another deal. maybe the Astros figure no way he’d walk away from a reasonable offer at that point but stranger things have happened.
  9. I see we have good taste in nicknames for our significant other
  10. I’ve had Wright’s book sitting by the bedside collecting dust (ever since finishing Harrington’s A Big Wonderful Thing several months ago). Good push to pick it up and finally read it.
  11. On sale March 1 (for the first half) this year
  12. Those guys all look hurt… they go on a huge bender on behalf of Altuve last night after the announcement ?
  13. Don’t quite get the “will retire as an Astro”. If he cares about 3,000, will probably need another one or two year deal after this one is done. But will worry about that in ~2028.
  14. Seeing all those 32 yos on that list has me once again saying “fucking Covid”
  15. Not a fan of the all orange caps, but for those that are, you’re in luck (at least for spring training): Do want that rainbow BP hat posted above though
  16. My favorite part of this picture has always been that Nolan is 6’ 2”
  17. Thanks Dusty (but yeah, good for him)
  18. Good for him sucks for us at what point do we replace his name on the thread title and with whom? I vote Childers
  19. Speaking of fitting the thread, is Sturgill still alive? What’s he doing these days?
  20. Does Crane have a place near Brenham? Is this why Altuve was out there /posting from there the other day? or does Altuve ?
  21. I could use a refresher of all of the supernatural events. there’s the recurring “she’s awake” that we have to wait and see who/what that was…which I’m sure is the same thing that spooked the elk at the beginning there’s Rose’s husband’s ghost leading her out on the ice. don’t know about either of those. some of the Tsalal weirdness I think they tried to explain away with Danvers figuring out the power was cut. everything else I can remember seems easy to explain (Danver having a dream), and/or really centered on Navarro (Navarro’s sister having delusions/hallucinations caused by her schizophrenia and same for Navarro (orange rolling back to her, possessed dude in the hospital, ghosts popping up randomly) who is clearly having increasingly serious mental health problems and basically said as much at the end of ep. 4. Not saying it will be easy or completely believable, but I don’t think it’s as far-fetched as one might think. (but again, I could be forgetting a ton that throws cold water on all of this)
  22. But only current fuzzy orbit not astrodome nuclear waste neon green glow Orbit ….and this is where we all rise and salute General Admisson
