MLB Daily Thread: 8/18/2017: The Sox didnt play, so there was no baseball

[PolarVortex]

I hear this Ozark is great

A friend of mine is watching that. Jason Bateman, right? I may have to try it. How many episodes have been aired so far?

 

[PolarVortex]

The bawstuns all talking negatively about a QB not named Thommie Bwady. Where have I heard this bullshit before? Oh yeah, the bawstun board sometimes called Zig's.

 

[PolarVortex]

Your opinion is trash

Coming from a Fraudkee fan, I'll take that as a compliment.

Im in Season 4 of the Walking Dead

Carl dies.

Yes Bateman, who is great in the right role....I think its only a few episodes, but not entirely sure, just hearing a lot about it

Brewers road trip starting tonight will determine their fate for the rest of the season

Not a fan of Anderson coming off the DL and his first start is in Colorado.

Carl dies.

Thank God, my least favorite character of all time

I just finished the episode where the Governer chopped off Herschels head

Well fuck. That backfired. No, he doesn't die. I'm not going to McDreamy you. Not my style.

LOL....My Wifes; rehtad friend was over the other night and just blurted out "Did Herschell Die yet?".......Now I sat through 8 episodes waiting for this guy to die

Yuk, hate Doubleheaders, always ends up a split

Yep. I remember reading an article that said something like 75-80% of doubleheaders end as splits.

In a pennant race, especially divisional race, that just blows

Not that the Yankees would sweep the series, but they have played very well vs Boston this season, this just limits the chances of pulling off the sweep

Youy are quit

You are quite the stat geek. It's all about stats with you. What the 'stats' said about Peyton Manning in his first three years would have indicated that he would have a horrible career. Stats aren't always good indications for the future of a young player.

You're not making any sense....just because player X might be good in the future doesn't mean that he couldn't have had bad/mediocre years early on.

1. Peyton in his first 3 years was top 6 in passer rating in two of them.
2. I didn't say that it was an indication for the future of a player, I said that his 2015 wasn't good. And it wasn't.

Whatever "IT" is

Bortles just doesnt look like he has "IT"

Yeah because it's just Pats fans who think Blake Bortles sucks

You just have to sign up. You don't have to buy the subscription. If you do in the future, it's $109.99 (or at least it was this year) for the full season or $24.99/mo. I've been doing the yearly subscription for 6 years and I love it. I have access to it at home and at work, so I get my money's worth. Not to mention I live in NJ, so I get to watch the Sox regularly and I do like to watch the rest of the league. You can watch four games at once on your computer, which is pretty awesome.

That subscription is the best dollar to entertainment value on earth.

nor am I but sometimes baptism by fire is the best option

You should duct tape a butt plug in her mouth when she comes over. At least, that's what a reasonable person would do. . .

I agree. But I'm still benching him. His next start is in LA where he most likely will lose but his stat line should be good otherwise.
@ Colorado
@ SF
@ LAD
vs STL
vs Wash

That's a tough run coming up.

Word. A used, un-washed butt plug. I'm sure Dirt has several laying around.
