Robbie Grossman too long?

I would have listed Seager twice.

Im not usually a big fan of shirts with a bunch of shit on the front but the back of that shirt is badass enough to make me not care…

Yeah I think it's pretty cool. I don't love the graphic on the front but I wouldn't be against owning one.

    Man, how I wish my dad could have been here to see this. Biggest Rangers fan ever. I was on the phone with him in 2011 when we needed one more strike. I’ve never heard such a crushed, disappointed rea

Agreed. I am more for the classic design where there isn't a ton going on but this one is pretty cool. Might get one for me and some of the family. It will end up in the attic one day with all my other Mavs and Rangers shirts that pertained to their deep playoff runs.

We need our boy @Constant to send that pic to his middle man, maybe Kenny can solve the riddle for us. 

Haha his dad was the middle man. And I think I may have burned that bridge when i sent Bernie a drunken, ‘LETS GO RANGERS’ text 10pm on Monday. He’s ghosting my excitement. 
 

That was his haircut in ‘92, though.

Way too busy for my tastes. I ordered one of the dark gray shirts the guys were wearing post-game.

I guess it's no mistake that nobody from the bullpen made the shirt. But Duran made it. Should have gone with Montgomery over Scherzer, as well, but probably harder to fit on the shirt.


Anyway, pretty ugly front design, though I like the darker blue. Maybe the world championship shirts will look better...hopefully not only worn by starving kids in Ethiopia.

Think that’s probably Manny Lee; he played 72 at SS in 1993 and wore #2….

Very possible. Looks a bit too dark for Benji...no racist.

A little extra and they’ll send it to you preconditioned with sweat and Budweiser.

That is an ugly ass shirt.

Also a bootleg, trademark, copyright rip off, etc. Possibly a Geneva Convention violation as well.

0.0% chance the Rangers organization had anything to do with it. Duran? Lol.

Texas rookie Evan Carter has been an absolute sensation on both sides of the ball in his first postseason – remember, again, that he only made his Major League debut on Sept. 8 – and even though the team usually platoons him with righty Robbie Grossman against lefties, the D-backs don’t have any lefty starters. (They did use lefty Joe Mantiply as an opener once in the NLCS, which they might do again.) 

That should please the thread.

Jordan needs to be on the shirt

Well no shit it isn't an official Rangers shirt.

Yeah, thanks.

I thought it was a joke picture until people started wondering why certain players were excluded, as if it wasn't created by a 13-year-old sweatshop worker in Indonesia firing up his pirated copy of Photoshop while on Wikipedia to get the Rangers' roster.

For anyone in the Austin area looking for WS or ALCS Champs gear, They have some at Dick's Sporting Goods. 

Anyway, back to the actual World Series.

Looking at going Saturday and price gouging is definitely on at nearest hotels.

Anyone going in from out of town and where y'all staying or recommend?

I haven't been to Globe Life yet but for Game 6 had a great hotel recommendation that was two blocks away. Walking to MMP and back was fantastic. Especially back, lol.

From initial looks I'm guessing there's no "walking distance" places available unless I'm willing to go $800 a night?

Loews looked like one but appears to be fully booked already.

There is that Marriott that is between I30 and where The Ballpark in Arlington was (Now Choctaw Stadium).  No idea what they are asking for the nights of the games though.

The Cowboys play at home Sunday at noon, so you're going to run into that as well

Well one is in Arlington and one is in downtown Houston. I would assume it makes the most sense to just stay in Dallas or somewhere around DFW. 

Can’t say I’ve ever stayed here but it’s right next door to Papasitos. It should be a quick Uber to the stadium or Texas live. 495a5a71587c6596e7721ee569677c47.png

Stayed at the Loews for game 5 of ALCS.  It was expensive, but worth every penny for me and two of my boys.  So convenient and the energy all around was great.

I can only imagine what they are asking for the World Series.  (Looked at its $1700+.  Dayum, that over 3 times what we paid for Game 5)

Got this drifit shirt too. Not sure it was worth $45 but I was an easy mark.

Theres an old saying in Arizona, I know it is in Texas. Probably in Arizona too. Throw a first pitch for a ball, shame on.... you. Throw a first pitch in the..... I won't be pitching again

Live by Loews and if I was desperate maybe Sheraton is the only hotel in Arlington I would stay at.

The new Loews across the street from the current one won't be open until February and the Drury down the street will be open in '24 as well. The Sheraton will be open thru the World Cup in '26 and the 30+ floor hotel, Loews 3rd in the area, will be going in next door.


I would recommend trying to find something in Grapevine or downtown FW and using Uber or Lyft.

Don't try and church it up, you look like one of those "urban campers" off of Cesar Chavez don't you?

Awesome. Beltre one of my favorite Rangers of all time, which is saying something for how seemingly short his stint here was.

8 seasons. Most of any team he played for.

Interesting, it just felt like he was with Boston forever for some reason.

Regardless when he broke 3000 hits I almost wept for the guy and it is an enshrined sports memory for me. Like when Emmitt Smith broke the all time rushing record.

All of one season in Boston. 
 

7 in LA, 5 in Seattle before you demonstrate your memory again.

Dude do you know who Adrian Beltre was? 

Your quip about him barely spending time here made me question my own memory. 

I remember listening to that 3000th hit on the radio. That was very cool. He was a bright spot between pennants. 

The Rangers have one-upped the Cowboys. Windows '95 was the hottest operating system when the Cowboys last had a deep playoff run.

Yep I was at that 3000th hit game. Awesome experience in person. That was the beginning of our decline after having good teams for the first half of the decade. Until now.

Dubya is piping that hoe and we're gonna sweep these losers. 

Todays the day. Let’s fucking do this.

Got my gear and I'm ready to watch the Rangers fuck up some "Diamondbacks."

That shitstain franchise over there thinks they can steal the Texas diamondback name and get away with it??? AND win it all in their 3rd fucking year of existence using it?? AW HELL NO. Time to curb stomp those bitches.

...okay, I may be struggling to get the "hate" factor up for them. After the Astros series it feels too damn complimentary and nice and "we both sucked a lot recently" around this one.

... Ah, but a Gurriel plays for them, yeah? Ah-ha!

FUCK that related-to-a-former-Astros-player piece of shit.

Ok, locked in now.

 

And to be fully transparent, I've already posted it but I plan to use this gif after every great Rangers play this series. I may also comment like "That was a Van Damme good play" Or "Van Damme great game."

Today, we are all Van Damme.

Knock Out Work GIF

 

Can a gif-master at least put a Rangers logo on his face?

Read the thread, Vic, shit.
You didn’t have to the last 7 months. 
Yes sir, thread police, sir.

Is a kid going to dress up as bochy for Halloween?

I don't know, but if that goddamn banana is back bouncing around, somebody needs to break in there and start throwing hands.
