I thought the thread had a reasonably balanced response to the OP. Didn't see that on the Chiefs site after we beat them.

For you, baby, I would swim the sea Nothing I'd do for you that's too tough for me I'd put out a burning building with a shovel and dirt And not even worry about getting hurt Ain't that tough enough

Heard from a friend that the Braves PA played 'It's a Small World After All' when Altuve came to the plate.

How about the right to complain? You're 'advertising pays the rent' point was in response to: "The people that fund every reason the NFL exists, have every right to complain about player and team performances."

The advertising dollars don't materialize without the fans.

Speculation is that the NL will be adopting the DH. These may be the last three games with a pitcher in the staring lineup in MLB.

#MeToo It was a bad sign when the guy who brought a WS to two big markets that hadn't won in ages wasn't 'a good fit' for the Mets.

Absolutely remember Brent Mayne. Prototypical backup catcher - which is not a negative statement. It's amazing to me how many players I remember from years past. Not so much lately. Now I'm watching my boys who know the players while they ridicule me - circle of life. Good times. When my boys were young I took them to a Mets/Braves game, warned them that Chipper was a Met-killer and then watched him get a big hit. My Chipper is their Freddie Freeman. But yeah, I'll take the Braves over the Astros this year - never thought I'd see the day I rooted for the Braves.

@Gugny @Another Fan Once in awhile I come across something that I have to share with my TBD Mets brethren. I haven't watched much post season baseball but turned it on tonight and saw Astros pitching coach Brent Strom come out for a mound visit. Holy $%&% - I haven't heard that name since my childhood. Looked it up and he pitched in 11 games for the Mets in 1972! I remember him from either a baseball card, a 1972 Mets yearbook or maybe a scorecard from that year - not sure at all.

Jack Eichel's mom?

No temper tantrum after the loss? That's a good thing, but not typically what I see around here after a loss.

It was real life for the woman who was shot dead.

Why can't you just get it through your head It's over, it's over now Yes, you heard me clearly now I said It's over, it's over now

I'm sure it's not him but the first thing I saw is Willem Dafoe

I live with my justice I live with my greedy need I live with no mercy I live with my frenzied feeding I live with my hatred I live with my jealousy I live with the notion That I don't need anyone but me Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water

Do you have a rights and permissions for re-use policy that I can review?

Completely disagree with the bolded. Getting the 1 seed and bye helps to mitigate against upsets.

Pretty sure the D didn't make a stop after the Poyer INT in the first quarter - unless you include the Titans 1 play drive at the end of the first half. Every other conversation about why we lost is window dressing IMO.

There was one guy who I think was pranked that thought he interacted with Laundrie by the AT.

Couldn't agree more, especially the bolded. Penalties and instant replay have involuntarily changed the way I watch the game. After every play, instead of enjoying or agonizing over the outcome I'm looking for the yellow indicator that there was a flag or wondering if the play will go to review to find out whether I should be happy or sad. The inconsistency of the the refs and booth officials just adds to the problem.

It reminds me of when Vrabel exploited the rulebook loophole that Belichik originally came up with against Belichik. Watching Belichik lose his mind was priceless. Vrabel definitely has an edge to his play calling https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/mike-vrabel-uses-bill-belichicks-own-nfl-rulebook-loophole-against-him-in-titans-win-over-patriots/

I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of 300 yard passing game guy. He enjoyed yesterdays game far more than some of our wins over the past few years.
