  1. Do not, even indirectly, criticize the greatness that is HEB's Mexican Hot Chocolate ice cream.
  2. Driving metal fence posts is a party compared to digging post holes.
  3. The Home Run Derby is meaningless if Yordan Alvarez isn't invited.
  4. 15 yards max in college, 30 yards max in the pros. Spot of the foul plus first down if under the max.
  5. He played himself in the movie "A Face in the Crowd" back in 1957, so he was a significant figure back in the 1950's. He was doing gameshows and interview shows for radio and TV in the 50's.
  6. I'm not interpreting that the same way. Sometimes people give a smile or laugh out of sheer frustration: "I don't know what else I could possibly do." Like Jim Mora's playoffs rant. I think Mack actually thought he had done everything he could possibly do.....which makes him even more pathetic.
  7. Not as good as SOA, but we'll see if the second season finds its groove.
  8. I wonder if John Ford makes an appearance.
  9. Remember how there was some concern during the offseason about how Whitley's innings would be handled so he could still contribute in the playoffs?
  10. Season 2 of The Mayans MC will start September 3 on FX.
  11. A Face in the Crowd is starting right now. Andy Griffith, Patricia Neal, Walter Mathau, Lee Rimmick.
  12. Season 4 of Fargo goes into production this fall and will air "early 2020." Chris Rock is going to be a crime boss in 1950's Kansas City.
  13. May be a cool streak, maybe teams are pitching around him and he's pressing without Alvarez in the lineup.
  14. Edwina’s insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase.
  15. Don't print that son. His mama reads that, she's just going to lose all hope.
  16. Reddick's career year was 2017. He had an OPS of .847 while his OPS this year is .786 Marisnek has an OPS of .782 this year. Altuve is at .784 Miles Straw is at .836
  17. Kinda ironic after last night's game that I'm arguing for less playing time for Reddick and Guriel next year, maybe even this year once we get everyone healthy.
  18. Which is why my first options would be to train Alvarez, Tucker, or Brantley at first base. I don't know if two of those three can play in the outfield at the same time. If Brantley and/or Tucker can play CF or RF effectively, that would be great. Even then, they may be looking to reduce Reddick's role next year. His contract is going to keep him on the team, but his power numbers are low for a corner outfielder. After DH and 1B, the next spot in the lineup that needs an offensive upgrade is RF.
  19. Why not? He's played there 3 times this year, even if only for a total of 3.2 innings
  20. Gurriel and Diaz as utility players. I want Alvarez and Tucker (if he can hit MLB pitching) to play as much as possible. Maybe Tucker can play right, but it seems both of them may be best in left field. Brantley needs to stay in the lineup, so we have 3 guys for LF and DH. One of the three can go to first, or maybe go to right and have Reddick play first.
  21. In the offseason, I would like to see if someone gets moved to first. Tucker, Alvarez, Brantley, or Reddick should be playing first next year.
  22. I noticed Dennis Quaid's name in the trailer.
