  1. How's the book? I have it on my list but haven't read it yet.
  2. Post Oak

    8-1

    They don't ask how, they ask how many.
  3. Is that a Criquet polo? Like it? Is it lightweight enough to wear in 100 degrees.
  4. I like that Sark is aggressive. The last thing I want is another fucking turtle. But man, it sure does seem like it would make sense especially with a backup QB to take the points whenever you can.
  5. Levi's great. Ranger fans are lucky to have such a good group of guys covering this team. RIP Richard Durrett
  6. Chapman will be a FA. I wouldn't hate bringing him back on a 1 year deal if he's not an asshole in the clubhouse. He'll be useful during 162. I was listening to KLaws pod yesterday and he said he wouldn't be surprised if Langford is ready when they break camp however they'll probably make him wait unless there's an injury. Antoine Kelly is a RP in AAA that I was surprised they didn't call up in Sept. He throws hard and has a funky crossbody delivery. He should be an option this year in the pen .
  7. Adolis is baba yaga. The boogeyman? Not exactly. Adolis is who we sent to kill the boogeyman.
  8. Shoresy S2 is out and it's excellent. Letterkenny final season is thanksgiving
  9. My first game was in the old Arlington Stadium in like 91. I went with my little league team after our season. We saw them play the Tigers. Before the game we were in our seats watching warmups and Sparky Anderson is in the outfield talking to some players and coaches. He's got a bucket of balls. Before he heads to the dugout a group of us get his attention and he comes over to talk and sign a few autographs. He takes a handful of balls signs them and then tosses them up to all the people around us. There's a small girl in the group of fans and he tried to make sure she got a ball. First one he tosses up, she drops and it falls between the bleachers and the outfield wall. He's got one ball left and he tells everyone around to let her catch it everyone says ok. I'm standing next to her and I know that as soon as that ball is thrown I'm gonna make a play on it. I do and as I have it in my hands and older guy had the same idea as me and he knocks it out of my hand and it falls. Sparky Anderson loses his ever loving shit over this and proceeds to curse out a 12 year old me like I ran over his dog. Nobody has ever spoken to me like that before or really since. The MFd me up one side and down the other. I'm 12. I dont know how long it lasted but 30seconds or so. I looked over and my best friend looked like I was heading to the executioner. I sat there in a daze the rest of the game. Don't know who won. Go Rangers.
  10. He's just like us. A goddamn idiot
  11. Marcus wins Marvin Miller Man of the Year award.
  12. I was reading the CY article in The Athletic this morning and it was talking about they started hot but then struggled the next 40 or so games. He called a meeting of his personnel folks and went around the room to find out what everyone thought. Did they think it was smart to go all in or not. CY said ultimately that during the meeting he just kept thinking that he believed in the locker room and that these guys would keep fighting, he just needed to get them some help.
  13. Kurkjian just said we didn't make a single error in the playoffs.
  14. I grew up in Waco and we didn't have cable. We had an antenna on the roof and there was a TV on a dresser in my parents bedroom that also had a small antenna on it. So if the wind was just right I could get Rangers games on Channel 11 I think. That was one of the 5 channels we got. I remember sitting on the floor in that room watching Geno Petralli, Charlie Hough, Boo, Scott Fletcher, Pete Incaviglia, Ruben Sierra etc. Im thinking about those days tonight
  15. Tears . I never thought I'd see it. How can you not be romantic about baseball.
