  1. Based on the last couple of winters, I would just not even spend the money. If we do get a couple of big snows - pay a kid to do it - you'll slave money. I haven't even attempted to start mine in over 2 years.
  2. Hello...............911? yes, I'm having severe chest pains............
  3. What is it with closers and this franchise in the playoffs, man !
  4. Its what happens when you have no real friends that can level with you (or level you when you deserve it). A whole life time of kiss-asses looking for money (that he probably never had anyway) Nobody to tell him "Dude, you're being an ass" and having that stick. Dude has never had a true friend his whole life. That's why he act like this.
  5. We do have some cool stuff on the walls in here
  6. I'll save my respects for Dikembe Mutombo, who worked with charities and helped others instead of the guy who threw away his own legacy on bets. That's the thing with guys like Pete - they can't stop "chasing it". They'll sink everyone around them to feed that desire, too. Great ballplayer? Yep. Horrible human? Yep. I know sometimes you have to separate the human from the work, it happens in art all the time. I like some Lou Reed music, but Lou Reed was a horrible person. Same thing for Jack Kerouac - I liked a couple of his books, but a pretty awful guy. I can't separate it with Pete Rose because the bad things he did were within his work. He never stopped with the gambling. When he finally admitted it, he signed his book the next day at a casino. That whole thing with having him place the first legal sports bet in Ohio just infuriated me and cemented my opinion of him. Tone deaf til the end. He just didn't get it. He did it to himself. One day it will come out that Ohtani was the one gambling (it was still illegal in California). Baseball is praying it happens after his playing career. If evidence comes out during his career, it's going to be earth-shattering for baseball. I am convinced they know it was him and are covering it up. Just like Ryan Braun blaming the courier. It's going to come out one day.
  7. I have a feeling that in our lifetime we're going to see quite a few managers that never even played the game - the way it's becoming so data-driven. I can only think of Tony LaRussa right now, but a player-manager? Too much information to deal with for one person to do both now. There is no "feel" anymore. .
  8. Could have driven a Cybertruck through that hole
  9. She pepper-sprayed him..............LOL. You know what you get? YOU GET WHAT YOU ****ING DESERVE !
  10. Well NOBODY knows more about Hurricanes than he does. NOBODY. Not the people that study weather for a living. He knows more than they do too.
  11. Coach Hot Seat Rankings. (I can do this today since none of the four coaches from tonight are in jeopardy -- yet. 1. DOUG PEDERSON - JACKSONVILLE - 0-4 start is brutal and people are starting to call Trevor Lawrence a bust. He was supposed to help develop Trev and he's not improving. SOJ Same Old Jags 2. KEVIN STEFANSKI - CLEVELAND - 1-3 when they should be 3-1. I feel like the team's not buying in. I think it's more Watson's fault, but they can't fire Watson. 3. ROBERT SALEH - NY JETS - I moved him up because apparently there is a big of a fight over cadence now between Aaron Rodgers and Saleh. My thought has always been that Aaron will get him fired. Aaron thinks he's the Head Coach. 4. MIKE McCARTHY - DALLAS - The win got a little of the weight off his shoulders, but a five-point win against a terrible Giants team is not that impressive. 5. NICK SIRIANI - PHILLY - Because I needed five. Don't listen to the Philly fans. You go 16-1 and they bitch about the 1. But - this team is supposed to be thinking Super Bowl. Injuries are to blame more than the coach.
  12. So, Skubal gets the Triple Crown? Some still think he's second in Cy Young. Clase had a great season, but I don't think it should even be close. If the A's in Vegas doesn't work out...........Where then? Portland? Salt Lake City? San Jose? Riverside? Back to Oakland? Traveling Team?
  13. I don't like how this ended with our skip getting tossed.
  14. Wow. Horrible non-call. MLB really wants Hinch going back to Houston.
  15. Nice catch Fletch !
  16. White Sox haven't scored 9 runs in a week this season. It wasn't partying - it was not having that same fire the last two days because how could they? That would be way too much to ask. Could you imagine if this was happening and they hadn't clinched yet? We'd be freaking out so much.
  17. Get this garbage all out of your system today, boys. To think they'd have anything close to the intensity they had the last 2 weeks would be naive.
  18. Javy won't be on this team next January. Kenta will get another shot, but he has no business being on the playoff roster - unless you want a guy to eat up inning in a blow out.
  19. Got a question Do you ever feel totally worthless? Like nothing you do matters to anyone ever? That your very existence is pointless? Asking for a friend.............
