It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
This is the c-spam thread for baseball chat based on the success of euphronius' nba thread.

Pull up a chair, let us know your team and talk about some dudes slinging balls at each other.

I like the dodgers. My grandpa took me to a dodgers game when i was like 5 and its one of my formative memories, so I don't care that liking the dodgers is akin to liking the evil empire

the dodgers have people like blake treinen, who is an absolutely terrible human being.

Posey just hit a three run dinger off of Treinen and that's the game.

The dodgers have lost, but Blake Treinen has been humiliated, so not all is lost.

MiLB is a better product, tbh. The majors game right now is so 3 outcome and there's still lots of small ball and errors and whatnot in the minors.

Baseball is good as hell, I used to work for a stats analytics company (AMA!) but I have almost completely checked out due to a combination of the powers that be trying to wreck the game with dumb poo poo like free baserunners in extra innings, messing with the ball to the point where there's a no-hitter every week now, loving around with COVID last season, and the Tigers being absolutely godawful again

if they're going to do something stupid like free baserunners after the 9th inning why not at least make it fun like if it's tied after 9 innings the game is decided by a home run contest
