  1. In other league news, I love this damn logo. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/logopedia/images/f/fd/X5qgaefxmvbsmrkzw3k8qggwr.gif/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/340?cb=20110724020241>
  2. Christ. Worth waiting five days for, right?
  3. Every guy making his MLB debut against the Mets looks like Clayton Fucking Kershaw. Shit drives me bats. Shouldn't one of these guys go 1.2 innings and give up ten runs?
  4. I turned it off actually. Blame me if you like. But I'm back for game 2
  5. Let's go to New York's favorite corrugated plastic cutout, Steve Gelbs, for the intro.

  7. If we're looking at butt shots maybe it's Heath Bell. I seem to recall some hiney talk about him.
  8. Even more damning than the content of his words was the tone of them. He did not use that word in a joking way or with any degree of levity. It sounded like it came from a position of hate, or disgust. He's not coming back from that.
  9. Traditional MFYLBS Paul Simon's week or two on the MLBS bandwagon: IN OCTOBER, MORE THAN TWO MONTHS BEFORE Howard, Simon takes a break from promoting Graceland and flies to London to produce an album by Ladysmith Black Mambazo. He then goes to New York to sing the national anthem at game six of the World Series, an invitation he accepted in part because it offended him to watch George Bush throw out the first ball at the Astrodome during the play-offs (“Bush—he's not from Texas, he's from Connecticut. He's from CIA. And excuse me, but he throws like a girl”). After this performance—“if you could call that singing”—he flies to Los Angeles for a two-day errand, a long-standing date at the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood. Today and tomorrow the First Presbyterian Church is in show business—the rehearsal and taping of a gospel special for Cinemax. The singers' stage will be an expanded chancel, and audience members will be invited to the filmed show. The Mighty Clouds of Joy, the Edwin Hawkins Singers, Andrae Crouch, and other black gospel stars have agreed to sing; Luther Vandross and Jennifer Holliday will also appear, as will the Oak Ridge Boys, a white group. Paul Simon is hosting the program, and three of his songs—“Gone at Last,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” and “Slip Slidin' Away”—will be sung on the show. This morning, before rehearsals begin, he stands inside the church with Ian Hoblyn, the handsome, efficient Englishman who is his manager, talking very quietly and watching two men polish the piano. Simon wears round, thin-rimmed glasses, a blue T-shirt, sport coat, jeans. On his head is a Mets cap and in his lapel, a Mets pin. https://classic.esquire.com/article/1987/6/1/the-apostle-of-angsthttps://classic.esquire.com/article/1987/6/1/the-apostle-of-angst He's from Flushing, from the same neighborhood where my dad grew up. My dad was a few years younger, and actually played on a little league team with Paul's younger brother, and my uncle played on a team with Art Garfunkel's younger brother.
  10. Super lame
  11. =batmagadanleadoff post_id=44120 time=1597789794 user_id=68] The Dark Knight returns to the majors. The Royals activate Matt Harvey for tomorrow's game.
  12. Referred to Kansas City as "one of the fag capitals of the world." Which I had not known. Always learning new things from my hateful friends at Fox!
  13. And now Diaz is dealing. One batter too late but I will take it.
  14. That sucked a soda can full of micropenises.
  15. Dom Smith hits the ball with his big middle of the order dong and brings in a run. My hero!
  16. Nice clutch 1B there by Rosie to open things up a smidge.
  17. Surprisingly strong innings from Oswalt whom I mostly remember as a "porn puss pounded" kind of guy.
  18. I'll be one and done in this format, it just doesn't work for me. The free agent process is too clunky and the web interface to the league is not intuitive to me at all. I don't follow the stats and don't particularly care.
  19. Hey, great, we're 1/3 of the way through this game, at just 95 minutes in. WOOOOOOO
  20. Yep, sleazy, agreed. Might as well dredge up the rotting corpse of Jimmy the Greek.

  22. What a miserable butt fuck of a weekend series that was.
  23. Yeah, I'm all done with Matz. He sucks a garbage bag full of dicks.
