  1. Fuck the Dodgers. Go Jays!
  2. Yep. 3 years ago he previsioned it.
  3. And his boss.
  4. Anyway, go George. Go Jays. And as Updawg said, fuck the Dodgers.
  5. Yeah, reading is hard.
  6. Yep. Imagine if they had banned all the players from all the teams that were doing that shit.
  7. He did in this series too, and got the last laugh. Don't make a shit though. Helobious has already pitched his tent with the Dodgers (because of course he has).
  8. Wow. It's like those French people have a different word for everything.
  9. Man, my favorite thing about baseball is the way it makes grown men act like little boys when they get the big hit, make the big play, or get the big strikeout. No matter the age, they all go back to being those little boys again.
  10. George ... doing George things. Fuck yeah. Let's fucking go.
  11. I mean, a gondola to the pits? Why not a monorail? Unless they've acquired some of the neighboring property, that building would have to have a seriously narrow footprint, given how little room there is behind that runoff.
  12. PFP pays off.
  13. Wait ... are you saying there's somewhere I can get a hat and a blowjob for $120? Hook a brother up, yo!
  14. They shouild list the commentators in the order of the number of words they speak. If they did, it would be something like ... Smoltz Davis Rosenthal Verducci
  15. Probably, yeah. And sure, it was worth a try. I'm a little surprised it took them so long to call it though. That seemed like a pretty easy call.
  16. Yeah bro, you can't do that.
  17. Blonde in the brown top, after that strikeout. Rude. Team Blue Jays.
  18. Hey, just curious. Do yo know how much Epstein was charging for coaster rides? Also, the tower cost $35 last time I went up, but that was at least 3 or 4 years ago. Surely he's raised that price.
  19. Yep. Thanks, Tavo!!!
  20. My buddy just texted me this ...
  21. Exactly. If the car is too complex for the driver to manage on their own as it used to be, then deal with it. Make it more manageable for them. Or don't, and suffer. The driver needs to be a bigger part of the equation again.
  22. Yeah, only a few years ago, F1 was much more affordable. Now it's insanely expensive, esp in the US. The Australian GP is the other end of the spectrum compared to COTA in terms of bang for your buck. This year iirc COTA 3-day GA tickets were $429 + taxes & fees. That's with one support series & 2 support races. At this year's Australian GP, you could sit in the most expensive grandstand for less than what that Austin GA pass costs. And that's for 4 days, with F1, F2, F3, V8 Supercars, & Porsche Carrera Cup. 5 support series for a total of 11 support races. Plus music, daily air shows, and more, and they have 3 or 4 support races just on Sunday alone. Most GP weekends fall somewhere between Oz & COTA. Honestly, predictability is a problem most years in F1, but in the past, there was less reliability, more variability, and the cars, the engines, etc were so entertaining in and of themselves, that the predictabilty was something most people could overlook. The drivers were loud and brash, and the cars were louder and brasher. The whole F1 circus was louder & brasher, & not so polished. The drivers poured themselves out of the cars at the ends of races, looking like they'd just finished an Ironman Triathlon. The extreme nature of the racing, with far more pushing than they do now, the cars being twitchier and physically harder to handle, etc pushed the drivers extremely hard.
  23. ... and further down, the battle between RB & AM for P6 is very close, with AM trailing RB by just 3 points. Sauber is only 10 behind AM. Not prestigious positions, but very important in terms of money.
