  1. I remember reds back in the early mid 90s. I like the font on these and the slight acknowledgement of teal in the more recent ones. "We're red. We're blue. OK, yeah, we also had a teal phase that we'll admit to."
  2. And you that happened because why? I will say this. Kelser and Blaha were both out of character last night. It was strange to hear them like that.
  3. The TV crew got quite whiny as the game went on. They were extolling the virtues of Beasley's trash talking but discredited Haliburton for the same shenanigans. That seemed very unprofessional to me. The game was tough enough to watch to begin with, and then bad broadcasting to boot.
  4. Well, look at this way, he could be available and healthy next offseason.
  5. Wow. Shouldn’t they have spent that on a roof?
  6. I understand the deal for a better defender. But specific to Torres as the acquisition and the resulting moves that it causes……. Meh.
  7. His father. He was a fisherman and often wore his hat so that the bill blocked the sun from his eyes. I always hated the tilt until I heard the reason.
  8. The change up was my only pitch.
  9. Best Piston alternate jersey, without question.
  10. I never had a paper route. Thats all I got.
  11. Was it that he was a difficult teammate or that he just didn't like to be talked to on his game day? I remember hearing the latter, but not necessarily the former.
  12. I remember thinking the Pistons should trade down to where they could still get Mobley and gain other assets.
  13. Flaherty had a heck of a season and it’s nice to see guys resurrecting their career like that. And we got to see it first hand, so that added to it. Having said that, I can understand why ball clubs might have some reservations to handing him a long term. Those reservations would be on top of giving any pitcher in this day and age a long term deal. Just think about what a bargain his contract was last season. He signed for $14M. Cobb, Morton, and Verlander signed for $15M this offseason. Nobody expected what he did last season. Heck, there were probably plenty of folks that couldn’t understand the $14M he got, myself probably being one of them.
  14. Thanks for bringing up Santana. That was worth a trip to bbref. I had forgotten how young he was when he retired. Talk about a candle that burned brightly but flamed out quickly.
  15. Don Mattingly and Bernie Williams agree.
  16. Relax. Drunk Uncle Tommy probably doesn’t even realize how much this team has improved since last season.
  17. Politely decline.
  18. I don’t like ND, particularly after they swept the Declan Sullivan wrongful death directly attributable to Brian Kelly’s decision under the rug, Having said that, because this should be a burr in his ass, I don’t mind them being the runner up this season.
  19. They’re still a flawed team, so the loss isn’t a shock. But agree with you on not giving up on a comeback. They were down a good margin late but never packed it in.
  20. I know I’ve heard this story specifically about Curry before. Either you mentioned it before or this is a similar story which kind of confirms that it’s something he’s done before.
  21. In game gambling apps?
  22. Yeah, well, one is throwing cash around like an athlete does on hookers, blow, and protein infused champagne.
  23. Agreed on both. And we don’t know what they want personally either. Skubal is from the Paciifc time zone area, maybe he’d like to be out there. Isn’t there a team in Los Angeles that has beaucoup buckaroos? I want to see Greene get through a season healthy. And who knows, maybe he’s got designs on being elsewhere, too.
