  1. I was on Matagorda Island last summer with my family, including several kids. I know what is out there because I have seen it personally many times. I keep my head on a swivel. I thought I saw a flash of grey once about five feet away from me. Then I saw the entire body silhouetted in a wave. It was probably 5-6' long. Not sure of type. Immediately called for everyone to get out of the water. Had I not seen it and we'd stayed in I am sure one of us would have been bitten eventually.
  2. Well I haven't. Not only would it risk my wife possibly biting off my dick, but she would be extremely pissed off and might actually divorce me over it. She has no sense of humor, especially about shit like that.
  3. Well I guess I misread the room on this one. I thought we were all assholes here. I thought we were in the trust tree. My bad.
  4. I'm super fucking busy right now. Wife knows this. I'm just rushing from one important thing to the next all day, every day. I have zero time for any bullshit whatsoever. Yesterday we were at my kid's psych appointment and I'm frantically typing work-related emails on my phone while we waited for the doctor. She looks over and tells me, "I need to tell you about a few things this week." I stop typing and look at her and tell her okay. She then proceeds to start telling me about a bunch of events, in great detail, like the end of school parties at my kids' schools, that I'm not going to, have no responsibility for and give no fucks about. Once I realized that every single thing she was telling me was utterly irrelevant to my life I could not help myself and made the "just get on with it" hand gesture. Rookie move. Frown. Tone. FML.
  5. That our team is so good it is impervious to shitty managing?
  6. Can Dubon play left? If Brantley ain't coming back and we want Yordan to DH primarily, then that seems like a good way to keep him in the lineup.
  7. I worked at the Furrow Building Materials store on N. Lamar in the late 90's. A guy just grabbed something off the shelf and walked out the front of the store to a waiting car. Like a dumbshit idealist, I ran out and got between him and the car door and told him, "You can leave, but you are not leaving with that." He handed it back to me, got in the car and drove away. I would not do that same thing today.
  8. Some people are assholes. News at 11.
  9. I don't believe this.
  10. That didn't help. I still don't get it. Old black men eat shit that's weird to other people? Why does Russell Westbrook sneaking a bite of something show that? I've also never heard of black walnut ice cream.
  11. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That was someone else. Unfortunately.
  12. Would still be a trap.
  13. Well, not to be telling tales out of school, but unless she has mastered faking involuntary contractions of her butthole, back-arching and shaking along with the post-O "don't touch me anywhere" reaction, then she ain't faking.
  14. She did recently tell me that she would be okay if I sought sexual gratification elsewhere. Me:
  15. My wife doesn't enjoy sex (she says). She has orgasms, but says they don't feel good. She has major body image issues that go way back. She doesn't like the things that I like, sexually. So I said to her last night, "You should do X with me so at least one of us can be happy. You are going to be unhappy either way." She said, "That's the same thing as a husband telling his wife they cannot afford a LV purse and the wife goes and buys it anyway and tells him that at least one of them is happy." Not. The. Same. Thing.
  16. Someone help me out. Why don't black chicks have any real hair? They all wear wigs, apparently.
  17. Got a call this morning after my wife left the house to take two of the kids to school. She "clipped a curb" and tore a hole in one of her tires. Called AAA, but they were going to take an hour to get there and asked if I could come change the tire. I got there about the same time AAA did, 40 minutes later. I didn't say anything to her, but I did mutter "fucking idiot" when I got off the phone with her. Good times.
  18. Don't forget Pena. He needs to stop sucking too.
  19. Excuse me, I'm old. Who TF is that?
  20. *raises hand* I feel like I need to wear one of those bear bell things hikers use.
  21. I don't know why but these people annoy the fuck out of me. Wouldn't we all like for the rules to not apply to us? You think you have found some secret key to just opt out of everything you don't like? Ignorant and selfish. Two qualities I hate. Fuck these mf'ers.
  22. I think it boiled down to two choices: 1) Spend all of the money available during the offseason to get the LF, C and maybe additional SP you think you need, or 2) Sign the biggest need of them all - 1B - re-sign your best reliever, re-sign Brantley and take the risk that he's the same guy he was in 2022 before injury, save the money you have to spend for the deadline, when you might be able to get someone with some team control at one of these positions of need. We probably have a playoff team as-is, so it's not like you have to spend everything you have just to get to the playoffs. Waiting until the deadline lets you know where you really need to commit your resources to make a WS run after all the variables play out - Brantley, injuries, Brown, all of our new dudes.
  23. Brantley's stat line in 64 games last season: .288 .370 .416 .786 He also had 5 home runs. Projected out for an entire season, he hits 12. Power is nice, but hitting for average and getting on base is good too. I don't know. Just because we didn't have someone with the GM title doesn't mean there was no plan. I think they did exactly what they wanted to do. They signed a first baseman, re-signed one of our best relievers and held tight on pretty much everything else. They passed on some opportunities, but I think those decisions were deliberate, not because there was no one doing the job.
