  1. your wish is their command. so be careful what you wish for...
  2. That throw was very un-Bruce like. His arm is his one skill on defense.
  3. This sucks. He was doing something historic, and now people who said he couldn't be both a hitter AND a pitcher will say "told you so." Which also sucks.
  4. ...Particularly the offense and defense. Agreed. But what about the rest of the team?
  5. If it's King Kong Bundy, it might at least be entertaining.
  6. I recommend he stop having plantar fasciitis. It hurts like a motherfucker.
  7. what CF said... ditto. I moaned when we acquired Ramos, and not in a good way. that he wore the badge of closer did not fill me with confidence. That he continued to walk too many damn hitters to be an effective pitcher was a major concern, regardless of save totals. I would rather have spent the Ramos money elsewhere, like on a better starter than Vargas and/or a catcher.
  8. scrrrrrtch... scrrrrrrtch... scrrrrrrtch... (the sound of a barrel bottom being scraped)
  9. if they take a lead into the 7th, i turn the game off. If they win, its a relief (no pun intended) when i check the scores the next day. If they blow it again, at least i didn't have to sit thru it. one has to develop defense mechanisms to numb the pain, because it never really goes away; it just rests for short periods.
  10. watching SNY talking heads last night, and they're all quite sure that Nimmo is a nice 4th OFer to have, but not really a starter. Um, fuck youse guys. Anybody with a career .400+ OB% who can play a decent OF (including adequate CF), run and throw well, with some occasional pop, can start for me any day. I'd play him over Bruce in a heartbeat.
  11. it should count. it indicates you didn't give up on the play and hustled your ass down the line. there should be a statistical reward for that.
  12. i'm sorry, but did you just throw shade at Val Pascucci?? The Big Cootch? How dare you, sir!
  13. a marker for the passage of time... my son took his (gulp) girlfriend opening night instead of going with me. Don't get me wrong... it was the right move. I totally respect the chasing of tail. but now i have to wait for him to go with me on Thursday. And he's got one foot closer to the door. “The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.”
  14. given the results of our last presidential election, i can definitely understand your confusion about the borderline of sentience.
  15. its the chronology of the interior world of the MCU, showing which events preceded which others on their timeline.

Or do you mean the actual Captain Marvel, the Kree warrior, Mar-Vell, to be played by Jude Law in the upcoming MS. MARVEL movie? Or do you mean the original Captain Marvel, now owned by DC and known as Shazam?
  17. Benjamin Grimm wrote: Captain Marvel will eventually move into the 2 slot, from what I hear. well, the story will start early in the MCU chronology, but it'll go right up and into Avengers 4, so it'll need to basically be a flashback that will then serve as the lead-in to the conclusion of the series.
  18. I'm telling you, Hulk, while being a (mostly) stinky movie, is canonical. The Incredible Hulk is generally classified as a reboot, but is more of a sequel, even if it's a sequel that allows you to ignore it's predecessor if you choose. Also, there are the several canonical TV shows. WHAT ORDER SHOULD I WATCH ALL THOSE EPISODES RELATIVE TO THE MOVIES, MAN?! here's a viewing order that includes the TV shows: https://www.cnet.com/how-to/marvel-cinematic-universe-timeline-avengers/
  19. Marvel Cinematic Universe - recommended viewing order: Phase 1 1 Captain America: First Avenger (July 2011) 2 Iron Man (may 2008) 3 Incredible Hulk (June 2008) [optional] 4 Iron Man 2 (may 2010) 5 Thor (may 2011) 6 Marvel's The Avengers (may 2012) phase 2: 7 Iron Man 3 (may 2013) 8 Thor: The Dark World (November 2013) 9 Captain America: The Winter Soldier (april 2014) 10 Guardians of the Galaxy (August 2014) 11 Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 (may 2017) 12 Avengers: Age of Ultron (May 2014) 13 Ant-Man (july 2015) phase 3: 14 Captain America: Civil War (may 2016) 15 Spider-Man: Homecoming (July 2017) 16 Black Panther (february 2018) 17 Doctor Strange (november 2016) 18 Thor: Ragnorak (november 2017) 19 Ant-Man & Wasp (July 2018) 20 Avengers: Infinity War (april 2018) 21 Captain Marvel (march 2019) 22 Avengers : The Conclusion (may 2019)
  20. Does Mickey have the stones to play him every day at 3b, including some starts at SS and 2b when Frazier gets back, and will he put his solid OB% at the top of the order? This team needs an injection.
  21. my problem with the Mets blowing out a team is i always feel like they're using up runs they'll need for other games. Now i know, rationally, that it doesn't work that way. I know that. But there is some primeval reptilian part of my cerebellum that clings to such thoughts. Perhaps i just look for reasons to be worried and unhappy.
  22. not all doctors are trustworthy:
  23. No Seawolves got drafted by the NFL this year (keeping our record of futility intact), but 5 have been signed as UDFAs so far: Chris Cooper, DB (Colts) Tyrice Beverette, DB (Jets) Ray Bolden, WR (Eagles) Stacey Bedell, RB (49ers) Timon Parris, OT (Reds***s) I was really hoping the Jets would pick up Parris. Not only do they need an OT, he's got a great classical name.

This is: a) a slump? a reflection of a small sample size? c) the reality of hitting the field without much of a spring training? d) the reality of who he is after the shoulder dislocation? e) something else? f) some combination of the above? yes.
