  1. I can't believe Seattle won. That's huge for them.
  2. You were not in the room or on the phone calls or privy to any of the negotiations. You fail to grasp that moves in baseball require the consent of two parties to agree. This isn’t a video game. “He didn’t do what I imagined in my head he could do” is not a valid criticism
  3. W
  4. MAGA is illiterate.
  5. You literally made all of that up. Not a single thing has any foundation behind it. It’s all conjecture.
  6. I truly don’t understand where this narrative came from about Scott Harris being “afraid”. Especially when you consider he’s been in charge for only 3 seasons and they made the playoffs in 2 of them. It’s an urban legend with no basis in reality.
  7. You don’t think other smart GM’s would be able to see thru that scheme?
  8. I read something that confirmed that. It was quick and unexpected and she didn’t want anyone to know.
  9. JV was sentimental. He was open to staying here as long as the money was fine. Max was about the money. That’s not a criticism. It’s business. He was traded here so there isn’t an attachment. That weird press release didn’t sit right with me. That was their way of covering their butt. Tarik will not sign before FA. I believe that as much as I believe anything sports related.
  10. What’s hilarious about that scene is she’s at school with the students. They are walking. Then he shows up. She just stops and starts walking with him then leaves with him. What happens to the kids? She just leaves work?
  11. It was more like a shadow.
  12. Part of the problem is Fox’s box is not accurate. A few times I saw a “garbage” pitch then I would check game day and it was either ok or close enough. I quit checking because the TV was a pitch behind. I saw a scorecard that gave him high marks. I stand corrected. Especially over a 15 inning game.
  13. He graduated to pulling legs off frogs and kicking puppies and kittens.
  14. She was also his wife. One of the top 3 shots of the whole trilogy is the door being closed on her at the end.
  15. As the parent of a special needs guy that’s true. He has many autistic like symptoms but not autism. Sometimes we say that because it’s easier and quicker to express. The genetic disorder he does have is an acronym covering many things but not everyone will have them all and it’s of varying degrees.
  16. Is he going to get autism now?
  17. If one of several players had just gotten one hit at various points in this game then Seattle fans are bitching about their team like tiger fans are. That’s baseball and that’s playoff baseball. I reject the sports talk show takes. The other team wants to win too. They have good pitchers. We have good pitchers. This wasn’t some blowout. We held their guys. They held ours. We made defensive plays. They made defensive plays. At some point there’s a break. This game and series was a coin flip. You don’t need to make any grand conclusions because of it. You don’t alter a blackjack strategy because of a few hands.
  18. I’m glad it wasn’t a walk.
  19. As a Tiger fan it will hurt. As a baseball fan it was amazing.
  20. Just give them the storybook ending.
  21. It was always going to be Kahnle.
  22. This ought to do it.
  23. Can’t wait to see this ump scorecard.
