  1. Yeah, he needs his Kate Upton. Maybe he could hook up with Sydney Sweeney and she could start a new AE campaign about how she loves Brown shirts? /No cr lol
  2. ESPN updated their top 10 prospects for every team, something to peruse on off-day. No real surprises here, but other teams did get some prospects for selling at the deadline.
  3. It seems like it going to suck. The Office US version was a sort of reboot of the UK version with Ricky Gervais, but they did a great job of making it distinct from the original. I have watched both a few times, and each has their moments. One thing the US version did so much better than the UK was creating lovable characters and relationships that help propel the show forward. The long multi-season arcs of friendships, romances, and personal growth of the characters is something I think the UK series missed by focusing mostly on dry comedy. (Not a bad thing, just different) Recreating that is going to be a challenge for any show, and trying to trade off the past success of another show feels cheap and hollow. Aside from Oscar, is there anything tying this new show to the old one? Being a newspaper, they could have endless callbacks to the old show for single episode cameos for articles. Are we going to see Andy and Erin show up with a MENSA baby? Is Kevin's band Scrantonicity 2 going to get an album deal and an interview? Will Gabe finally be caught and arrested as the Scranton Strangler? Does Holly become their new HR person? Do we get to see Karen from behind? Will Creed's obituary be published by this paper after he fakes his own death? So many possibilities, and I don't really want any of it. Seasons 8 and 9 were bad enough.
  4. Is he in the top 3 right now? I figured Skubal, Fried, Eovaldi and Crochet are all up there with him too. It's gonna be real tough for an Astro to win it considering the voters. Would love to see it, but very doubtful he gets that kind of recognition.
  5. Nice series win. Got hunter another W too.
  6. This is a really cool breakdown of the Rockets salary cap changes through the offseason:
  7. Uh oh, Elon's gonna have to get into the code again and fix this issue with Grok! He's gonna be coding ALL NIGHT!
  8. This is more rage inducing that lol, but still kinda funny
  9. Yup, Dana has been excellent since he got to take decisions on personnel. He has found some good role players at the bottom of the barrel, and they have been a huge factor in this team being 15 games over .500. Those deadline trades have all been money, and will pay huge dividends come playoff time and next year. Sanchez has 2 years of arbitration left, and Urias has 1, so they aren't half season rentals and will give Dana a ton of flexibility in the offseason. If the team can get some more healthy pitchers back, the bullpen will improve greatly. Neris isn't good, but you need some guys to eat innings for now, and they still have another ~45 games to play. I don't think he will be here much longer, as other dudes get promoted, but he's fine for a stopgap. The playoff roster for this team should be stacked and worthy of winning it all.
  10. Oh wow, Chas must have ate his meatloaf tonight!
  11. Why would anyone need another Correa jersey???
  12. And you can see why Clase was always throwing his first pitch into the dirt, it's the only way to be certain.
  13. Or the Yankees' season thread, if that exists somewhere.
  14. And the Twins are paying us $33 million to keep him! Hahahhaha
  15. But I also enjoy seeing themm lose whenever the are not a threadt lollol
  16. Maldy did nothing wrong, dumbass Dusty just played him too much. Would love to see him back on the Astros.
  17. Fuck the Yankees!!!!
  18. I like this Devin Williams guy, hope the Yankees keep using him.
  19. 1993 is tough to beat, so many amazing films, and lots of average but entertaining stuff to follow up. Plenty of other movies are on the list, but I could get enjoy this lineup for a while. Jurassic Park Schindler's List Tombstone The Piano The Fugitive The Firm Cliffhanger Carlito's Way Hard Target Last Action Hero The Pelican Brief RoboCop 3 Dragon Ball Z: Broly Fun movies: Groundhog Day The Sandlot Dazed and Confused Mrs. Doubtfire The Nightmare Before Christmas Robin Hood: Men in Tights Hot Shots! Part Deux Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III So I Married an Axe Murderer Hocus Pocus Free Willy Homeward Bound The Super Mario Bros. Movie (lol) Grumpy Old Men Wayne's World 2 Loaded Weapon 1 Weekend at Bernie's II
  20. I googled it, and it said he was a lefty... But I think this may be a case of AI misinterpreting search results. I see the first several links for it being left handed highlights, and I think it's just summarizing the search results as a fact. But I see now he's listed as a righty on his draft profile. Anyways, if having a right handed Center to pair with Fox makes any conceivable difference, I'll be surprised. Never heard of a player mention that before.
  21. Yeah you're right, a few of O'Neil Cruz's homers were at 120+ EV. I think what they meant is that it was the fastest pitch hit for a homer.
  22. If that was all there was to it, that would be hilariously stupid. Plus Wemby is a lefty, which doesn't help your argument.
