  1. Eddie Robinson getting faked out by Chad Pennington is worth an honorable mention. I had a bird's eye view of this one as well as OP's' Losman fumble.
  2. Change, nothin' stays the same Unchained, and ya hit the ground runnin'
  3. Jeez the injuries keep coming. Last night we were watching a Mets 2019 season recap and as they were showing Thor the announcers were saying that he was trade bait. Who knew at the time that cutting ties with Thor and going all in on Wheeler would be the smart play.
  4. Maybe it's just jealousy Mixed up with a violent mind A circumstance that doesn't make much sense Or maybe I'm just dumb
  5. Tell Sanchito that if he knows what is good for him he best go run and hide, Daddy's got a new .45, And I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down sancho's throat, Believe me when I say that I got somethin' for his punk @ss.
  6. Did you ever hear the story That happened not long ago 'Bout the man with a tan: El diablo de Mexico?
  7. Well i want my chrissy, 'n i want my beer So you just barf it back up now, devil, Do you hear?
  8. Apologies for dropping in to the Sabres thread with a non-Sabres question. I'm an Islanders fan. My teenage son asked me who the Bruins would rather face next: us or the Pens. How would you answer that?
  9. For how long?
  10. Agreed. Fairburn took the lazy way out of an interesting question. The Mahomes/Allen debate is fun, but unless you think Allen maxed out this year it's a poor choice for a positional swap out IMO.
  11. I didn't see any of the game yesterday but that sounds dumb. Maybe it was just the 'third time through the lineup' mentality - which I suppose the numbers back up but is too cut and dried for my taste. I was watching a game recently and Gary made the point that these days a good manager is all about communication - communicating with the players, press and upper management. His point was that management/analytics is dictating lineups, defensive positioning and bullpen management and all that has been taken out of the managers hands. That was an eye opener for me.
  12. Last night DeGrom had a rehab start against the Single-A Cardinals. The leadoff hitter got to first on an infield error and then DeGrom struck out 8 of the next 9. The Cards social media team had some fun with it. Full article: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/news/jacob-degrom-rehab-start/5n55xvu76aah1q703ii7es385
  13. I enjoy walking, it's as good as a hit. Well not really, but that's the BS they peddled to me in Little League.
  14. Pittsburgh Pirate second baseman best known for the day he went 7-7 in a 9 inning game at Wrigley Field. Baseball has lost a number of legends this past year (Seaver, Gibson, Morgan, Brock,..) and while Rennie Stennett doesn't measure up as a legend I remember him as a guy I'd want on my team. Sad to hear of his passing. RIP.
  15. Right there with you on Midnight Run. RIP.
  16. Hats off to the NFL that fans care so much about the schedule.
  17. If you didn't catch it, Mets fans gave Matt Harvey a nice reception today. Nice to see. https://nypost.com/2021/05/12/mets-fans-salute-to-matt-harvey-deserves-round-of-applause/
  18. TV dinners, I'm feelin' kinda rough TV dinners, this one's kinda tough I like the enchiladas and the teriyaki too I even like the chicken if the sauce is not too blue
  19. I hear "we need significant infrastructure upgrades" and my mind goes to aging roads/pipes/bridges. Cyber-security is a different animal IMO. You can fortify a road or bridge and expect it to last some number of years. You can address a cyber-security hole with little expectation that another one won't be exposed in the short term. It's an on-going battle. For the record, if it comes out that the company operating the Colonial pipeline was lax wrt cyber-security I'll agree with you - my hope/expectation is that wasn't the case.
  20. Wait, what? Are you no longer in LA? More pipelines or better cyber-security?
  21. The bullpen has been surprisingly good. I don't know if I'll ever completely trust Diaz but he's been dominant more often than not. Even Familia has looked serviceable. I wonder if Gsellman will get a shot at a spot start. He seems like the forgotten guy.
  22. I missed the Carrasco news, I was under the impression he was closer than Thor.
  23. Just came here to post the same. This is about as good news as could have been expected. When is Carrasco coming back? Stroman and Walker have been really good but Peterson, Lucchesi and openers don't inspire confidence.
