  1. Ha, all Yankee fans remember his 2009 start. He ended up giving up 7 homers the entire season, 5 of which came in April and May. People were talking about how he was done and they should replace him with Joba or Robertson. Once he got back in his zone that summer he was his usual self the rest of the way.
  2. SA Jay vs Weslaco should be a good one. Might be the first time Weslaco is out-barrio’d by an SA school they’re playing. I’ve literally had 20 or so relatives graduate from Weslaco high, and about 10 more that went but didn’t wanna play school. My dad played as a DB for them in the 80s. But damn if I don’t have a soft spot for Jay here.They've been the story of the year in SA. A win for the mustangs will put them in the third round of the playoffs for the first time ever in the almost 60 year history of the school.
  3. It’s just a nonsensical take. Mariano Rivera had zero idea what he was doing by pounding lefties inside with his cutter over and over? All that weak contact and broken bats he generated were pure luck? It’s just luck that a pitcher getting it low in the zone produces a lot of grounders?
  4. I just did it because the narrative from a certain prominent fanbase on here was that he wasn’t worth the money and that without sticky stuff he sucked. They sure look stupid now.
  5. The way we portray violence in movies I think desensitized a lot of people here to it. Watch someone get shot in a Marvel or x-men movie. They immediately just fall down, no blood whatsoever. I was watching beheading and real death vids online by the time I was 12 or 13, so I knew how fake and misleading the movie stuff was. A kid that didn’t do that wouldn’t know, however. If it was presented more realistically I think it would change the way a lot of people feel about violence.
  6. I never said you were mentally weak, just the idea that pics like that need to be censored for those that are. If you grew up around the internet you’ve seen way worse stuff than that. It’s a part of everyday reality in America and elsewhere.
  7. It amazes me how sensitive and mentally weak some people are. There’s no gore or up close pics of dead bodies in any of those.
  8. Former Asian gang member, divorce lawyer, and fentanyl survivor Jake have been my favorites so far.
  9. But then he knows exactly what it would take to convince each person on earth of his existence, or to convince them to follow a righteous path. Why make that barrier so low for some and high for others?
  10. Wins the cy young and then proceeds to take a huge dump on analytics. What a fucking alpha the whole “pitchers have zero control over the kind of contact made” argument posited by analytics never made any sense at all. Glad to see the most successful pitchers don’t buy into that.
  11. It’s a state directly north of colorado, famous as a home to Yellowstone National Park.
  12. I was actually most fond of Tebow on those teams. He reminded me of Vince the way he just knew how to win. Percy Harvin, Hernandez, Spikes, they had some cold teams back then. Discussion for a different thread I guess.
  13. I started liking them as a kid because alligators are my favorite animal. Which typed out doesn’t sound as great as in my head. Whatever. It’s a free country last time I checked.
  14. Oregon State will beat one of Wash or Oregon, allowing us to leap frog them. Im putting my faith in Damien Martinez.
  15. Florida is my 2nd favorite team after Texas. Sucks to see their recruiting class get raped and pillaged like this. Napier was a total disaster, but maybe we can at least get Filisame out of it.
  16. Meh. Enough dollar signs will smooth over any hurt feelings. I don’t think any free agents will give a shit about what cashman said.
  17. If there was a “Bama” of El Paso football it’d be Canutillo. They had a memorable run all the way to the state semifinals in 2014. They haven’t replicated that since but they’re routinely solid and are the only team from out there that usually avoids embarrassment in the playoffs.
  18. Lulz at Simms or the vast majority of highly rated recruits being ok with riding the bench for 4 years
  19. Please god let them hire Lanning. He’d have Oregon at 5-5 right now without bo nix. Definition of a fraud.
  20. Yeah but LT has 3 wins vs winning teams and Johnson has 5. Not an end all be all but just watch.
