  1. She looks like she needs to speak to a manager.
  2. My two: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/rush/1987/rpi-fieldhouse-troy-ny-53d18b71.html https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/rush/2015/centre-bell-montreal-qc-canada-5bc90750.html The 1987 show was good, not great. Hold Your Fire is arguably their worst album, ever. And they didn't open with Spirit of Radio. Talk about a collective WTF moment! Admittedly, "Signals," was probably the last of their albums that I really liked; much bigger fan of their early work. The 2015 show was RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME. Incredible set list and a huge treat in Jacob's Ladder, which was not a common live tune for them.
  3. You drew first blood. You drew first blood.
  4. I agree with all of this and as much as I want to love Beane and McDermott, I have my concerns. To be clear (in general/to anyone reading) … I am NOT calling for anyone's head. However, we are three years into this regime and they have yet to handle/prepare the offense properly. That is no Bueno.
  5. True … we'll never know the real reasons. But let's say there was a pitch count and/or a lingering injury … then, at best, it's horrible roster management. If they knew Singletary had to be limited AND chose to only suit up Singletary and Gore - while leaving Yeldon inactive every week - then it's still a very, very big problem. The fact that they had Duke Williams inactive for the majority of the regular season only to activate him and make him THE focal point of the passing game in the playoffs worries me. This, coupled with the mismanagement of the running game (I think it's clear that it was mismanaged, regardless of whichever reason is the real one), should be a major concern. I think about the mismanagement of the roster throughout this season, which then reminds me of when we went INTO the season with Nathan Peterman and rookie Josh Allen. These are huge blunders.
  6. I agree a power run guy (perhaps one in his 20s) would be nice to complement Singletary. But the lack of carries he had all year (let alone the playoff debacle) is pathetic. It clearly shows how Daboll sees what's working, then abandons it.
  7. Not to mention, he's not choking up on the bat. 99.9% of the time a 5'1" batter would be choking up on a guy who throws gas.
  8. I agree with 99% of this. My only question is what is wrong with Devin Singletary? He had LITERALLY 50% of the carries that Derrick Henry had (DH - 303; DS - 151). Henry and Singletary tied for 4th in the NFL with 5.1 YPA. That's not a running back problem; it's a coaching problem.
  9. When Hinch was fired, my initial reaction was that it was harsh. But I've had some time to give it thought and digest it. This is WAY worse than what Pete Rose did. Nothing Rose did affected the outcome of games, let alone World Series games. This is on the level of the Black Sox. Anyone and everyone associated should be banned for life. I applaud MLB for handling it the way they are. The message needs to be loud and clear. This isn't a spitball. This isn't too much pine tar on a bat. This isn't a baserunner stealing signs and tipping off a batter. The technology aspect of it puts it an on entirely different level.
  10. This World Series Championship should be vacated. No winner. And every single player who is proven to have cheated using technology should be banned for life. To me, it's that simple. They're all ***** scumbags who have no respect for the game.
  11. Yet many will use to support their narrative.
  12. They really just need to call it a ***** entertainment museum. That's what it is. This Rock and Roll Hall of Fame bull#### has been a sham since day one.
  13. He would have been fired had he not "stepped down." This is terrible for baseball. Cora, Hinch and every player who used technology to cheat should be banned for life. There should be no World Series champion for 2017.
  14. I suppose if I'm just hanging around, I could watch this.
  15. Nothing but a punk, diva who's never had anything but potential. I was very happy the day he left.
  16. My mama said That your life is a gift And my mama said There's much weight you will lift And my mama said Leave those bad boys alone And my mama said Be home before the dawn And my mama said You can be rich or poor But my mama said You can be big or small But I'm always on the run (always on the run) But I'm always on the run
  17. And if you say to me tomorrow Oh what fun it all would be Then what's to stop us, pretty baby But what is and what should never be

  19. I, for one, think he sucks. And if we're "set at TE," then Beane isn't doing his job. UNLESS, McDermott can eat some humble pie and put Sweeney on the field. From what I saw last year, he had the most upside of all 50 of our tight ends. And don't forget Jason Pegula. Anyway .. Kroft was swing and a whiff. I think he's worthless.
  20. I agree, to an extent. I saw Rush for the first time on their Hold Your Fire tour. Horrible album. Terrible. And the concert was really good, but nothing spectacular. They opened up with Big Money when everyone in the crowd was expecting Spirit of Radio. That kind of set the tone with them playing too much new crap. However, their R:40 tour was phenomenal. They started with their most recent stuff and played songs from every studio album (minus Hold your Fire, LOL) working their way to their humble beginnings. As the eras changed, so did their gear. By the end of the night, they were playing their earliest stuff with Neil Peart playing on a 5-piece set and Geddy/Alex playing through small rigs. One of the biggest treats was them playing, "Jacob's Ladder," which hadn't been on a setlist in years. Such a great show. But to your original point, I'm not sure a Rush-exclusive channel would be sustainable.
