Two of them have won MVP in their careers e: Although, interestingly, at one point Yu Darvish insinuated someone was relaying signs to Christian Yelich from first base and since the league cracked down hard on sign stealing Yelich has been Real Bad but no one talks about it Intruder fucked around with this message at 05:26 on Apr 5, 2021 |

Started playing AC: Vikings again and I think my main complaint is that this should be very good but the game gets in its way constantly. Every few minutes I'm feeling like "oh I got your puzzle, game. Cool that was mindless fun, let me grab that reward." And then cursing at Eivor for refusing to move as they should or getting caught up on some piece of scenery. e: I want to track down whoever thought that little beepbeepbeep sound was a good idea and leave a bunch of legos on the floor by their bed while they're asleep.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Can someone who knows more about baseball please explain the miserable existence of the Florida Marlins franchise to me because I find it baffling. Is it some deep level conspiracy to act as a AAAA farm team for the bigger market teams in the league? Because every time they’re good for a year it’s treated as a freak accident and they destroy the team as fast as possible. They've won multiple world series this generation they can eat my whole rear end Shimrra Jamaane posted:I can understand that. I can’t understand having two singular playoff appearances which somehow ended in a championship and then immediately stripping the entire team over the following offseasons each time. Jeff Lorie is a humongous piece of poo poo

The Marlins are the perfect franchise from a fan perspective. On the rare occasion they’re actually good, they close the deal and win the drat thing. The rest of the time, they have the courtesy to let you know before the season’s even started not to worry about it.

BlindSite posted:Thats really cool. Good poo poo for getting into it. Thanks man. Kind of a weird hobby to just jump into I guess, but I'm enjoying it. And in stupid sentimental fashion, my dad did it back in the 70s for a bit and actually wore the belt and wallet he made back then right up til the day he died in 98. I actually found his scratch awl in a box of random poo poo so I've been using it. Like I said, I'm still poo poo but it's getting better each time. By end of year I'd like to make a bag and probably a clutch for my wife as well.

Yeah the Marlins have won more WS titles than the Braves in the last thirty years (or 26, in their case) in spite of an abysmal win percentage during that period. They have no interest, as an organization, in maintaining any long term success. They draft and develop and immediately ship their stars out of town. What a depressing franchise. Also, General Dog said it really well.

My gf told me a story about how her and a friend were traveling (NY I think) in college and took pictures next to a sleeping homeless guy (could have also been just a guy napping) on a bench in the park. They told another friend of hers about it and the friend got pissed about it, made a fake newspaper article about how the cops found a dead body in the park and were looking for suspects seen near the body before it was found, two girls etc etc. GF bit hard on it and spent like the next week worried she was going to jail before the friend told her what was up. To this day she feels horrible about it and is the person that keeps money/change in her car to give to homeless at stop lights - donates and works at food banks etc. When she told me the story I was dying laughing and her insistence on how it was NOT funny and that it's a serious thing only made me laugh harder. She's a great girl and I love that she donates her time and money to causes like that but the way she got there is just amazing. They were two dumb college kids. No idea why adult Tyrese would think this is okay. Bird in a Blender posted:I watched Kong vs. Godzilla and it was fine I guess. I think I've completely lost interest in CGI action fests like that. I tried watching it last night but fell asleep, woke up when Kong found the axe, fell back asleep then woke up when Kong and Godzilla were fighting the robot godzilla and I was a little confused. I'm probably not gonna try and watch it again. Joey Freshwater fucked around with this message at 13:59 on Apr 5, 2021 |

Maybe once a year or something for me if that and after my first shot on a friday, I had sore arm for a couple days and then felt mildly sick for 3-4 days after that. Kinda worried about how bad its going to be for my 2nd shot this friday but at least I got the weekend to lay up if it really is going to be bad.

This was also the night of the double doink playoff loss and he was in his dumb Bears vest he always wears. I said sorry for your loss and he got all mad lol. (A friend and I ran into him the previous night and we sheepishly introduced ourselves and asked for a picture and he’s a super nice dude!)

I felt like death warmed over two hours later and then was perfectly fine the next day, I know my mom didn't have any reaction at all. I called to check in on how it was going and had to remind her why I was calling when she wanted to talk about something else. So your odds are decent for tomorrow at least from my anecdotal experience.
