  1. I thought Walker was doing fine and I definitely questioned pulling him. I called us pulling Saunier as soon as it happened. And then Hudson was nails. I don't get this commentary. From what I saw Jonah was a total star today and routinely displayed shit that you can't gameplan for. He's a complete menace on the base paths. I'm not sure if you start him going forward but you have to at least pinch-run or sub in this kid going forward. He's so. Fucking. Sick. Anyone with a brain can see how special this kid is.
  2. Most of the rest of Weezer I can do without.
  3. I'm going out on a limb and guessing that this is both @jimmyjazz's and mine's favorite Weezer track.
  4. Mr. Brightside is by far the biggest song by either band.
  5. Shout out to the dickheads I asked today that said we were paying at 2 pm.
  6. Wait so what time are we playing tomorrow?
  7. I don't think that's how that works. BUT - I'm not ruling it out. Someone blow on some dice and light an effigy.
  8. I did drive up to Dallas yesterday and watch the Stars get eliminated. Maybe that energy coupled with me starting these threads could reverse something?
  9. Holy shit who was batting for us tonight?
  10. I mean that was my thought. Schloss wanted to get everyone a little work. Jonah was so sick today. He should start in LF for us the rest of the way.
  11. Y'all are probably right I'm just saying it was immaterial today and it's a two-sport player that we're talking about. Who had already had a collision at 2B.
  12. I don't think Jonah got pulled because of his inability to cover left against some dogshit HCU team.
  13. Tennessee about to fuck on this team unfortunately.
  14. Watch what you're saying about my Rangers.
  15. Vols not exactly blowing Miami OH away to start things here.
  16. No I was just making fun of him for being gay. In seriousness I'm sorry for being a dick the other night. I think you're a good guy and you're certainly not a faggot. You might be a bit of an instigator but that's kosher here. I don't have an excuse to make - I have a lot going on right now and I'm very obviously a tremendously flawed person but that isn't an excuse. I'm aware of it and trying to work through it.
  17. No I think she's dumb as fuck but she has willingly sexualized herself and has an army of race-baiters around her and that together has effectively distracted from her lack of basketball skill. Which I guess sucks because it detracts from the popularity of legit badass players like A'Ja, Collier and Thomas.
  18. What's amazing is how she's been parlayed into being a star and media personality despite probably not being a top - idk - 40? 50? player in the league. I mean it's kind of impressive. I have to give some credit.
  19. We made one play in left-field all game (actually two because we had to cover for Borba fucking up that liner past 3rd). I figured it was Sark making the call after it was obvious that we weren't losing.
  20. This is obviously a pointless debate and I'm not convincing you. I'd take Jimmy 10 times out of 10 - and in pretty much any context. VC wasn't some bum but Butler's playoff resume speaks for itself. I don't think your take here is crazy I just disagree.
  21. Based on what? I get you're a Celtics fan but give me a break, dude. Butler was a fucking animal in '23. Carter never touched that level of winning-basketball. Butler was maybe better in '22 despite losing to Boston. He led the playoffs in Win Shares, WS/48, OBPM, BPM and VORP. And two of those are cumulative stats and he didn't even play in the damn Finals. Carter had one season KIND of like that and led the playoffs in BPM but they lost in 5 games to the Heat in 2006 in the conference semis.
  22. It's becoming an overused word but he absolutely has an aura.
  23. Is this a bit? I thought we were doing the best 5 guys at their peaks in a game against each other or series. Butler was the best player on 2 Finals teams. He has 5 All-NBA selections to VC's 2. He has 5 all-defense teams to VC's 0. Congrats to Vince for playing more games and putting up more counting stats in the regular season. In the playoffs - and at each guy's peak - I'm not sure how it's even a debate. Especially within the context of being surrounded by other superstars in this hypothetical.
  24. Not sure. He looked totally fine though. Spent a lot of the later innings messing around tossing balls back and forth with kids over by the dugout. By the end of the game there were like 25 kids over there trying to get a ball from him. Seems like a really cool dude.
