Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner

How did the police report know that he wanted to take a shower? All they found in the back seat was Head and Shoulders.

Did they lock him up to a long term contract? EDIT: to his credit it looks like he hasn't aged all that much since 1970

Somewhere in the distance I hear the bells ring Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing And the lady 'cross the street she shuts out the night There's a cast of thousands waiting As she turns out the light But it's too late, too late, too late (Too late) too late for love

I can't get past the age of the kids. Not that I'd excuse the parents if the kids were older, but the age of the kids makes it even more unfathomable to me.

Add this to the list. Parents of 7 year old's brawling on the baseball field. https://denver.cbslocal.com/2019/06/18/video-brawl-little-league-game-lakewood-colorado/

Folks say Papa never was much on thinking Spent most of his time chasing women and drinking Momma I'm depending on you to tell me the truth Momma looked up with a tear in her eye and said, son Papa was a rolling stone (well, well, well, well) Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died, all he left us was alone

Hello said my shaky voice, well, how you doing I start to stutter Ah, can't you tell I'm doing fine There was my baby talking she's way down across the border She says I'm going to hurry to you I've been a fool And I'm tired of crying

No we really haven't. We've 'only' blown 16 of 33 So basically 50% save percentage. League average is 66%. If we were just average we'd have 6 more wins and be right in the thick of things. If we were better than average (that's what Diaz was supposed to bring) we'd be feeling pretty good about ourselves. EDIT: looked a little closer at the stats. Mets are 6-7 in games where they have one or more blown saves.

The intentional balk. Up 5-3 with two outs in the top of the 9th and Jason Heyward on second base Kenley Jansen announced to the second base ump that he was going to balk and then did just that. Dodgers didn't want Heyward stealing signs or location from second base. https://www.latimes.com/sports/dodgers/la-sp-dodgers-kenley-jansen-20190615-story.html Ironically, Heyward was at the plate last year when Mets SS Amed Rosario went out of his way to block the runners view of the Mets catcher as he was putting the signs down. https://elitesportsny.com/2018/06/01/new-york-mets-news-jason-heyward-yells-at-amed-rosario-for-sign-block/

If you'll excuse me I'm gonna head over to the TIL thread.

LOL, my bad, sarcasm is a good thing. Perhaps all this losing is making me a bit sensitive. Now can we please get to F**king .500!!!!!!

So now you're saying the Big Bang Theory is a military prank? Fascinating, but do you mean the TV show or the theory of evolution?

Do you seriously think the Mets traded for Pounders because the Yankees traded for Encarnacion? That ranks amongst the stupidest things I have ever heard. Ever. I'm not saying he'll be a saviour - and the stats you posted don''t inspire any confidence - but in spite of your cute little gif he threw a scoreless inning in his Mets debut.

That's awesome! Greatest Met of all time and nobody is even close!

Were you military? I'm not, but decades ago I heard that the toilet swirl was a military prank.

In what world is bibbs spelt wif three Bee's? What if you're in the southern hemisphere?

...and second place isn't even close.

Had a dad Big and strong Turned around Found my daddy gone He was the one Made me what I am today It's up to me now My daddy has gone away...

What makes you think that was zee? Internet posters.../smh

Unless you hate the lyrics to YYZ!

Twenty-four hours a day Hey, why don't you go down to the supermarket? Get something to eat, steal something off the shelves Pass by the liquor store, be back about quarter to twelve Don't wanna be your slave

Toronto is awful? What city isn't? Ol Dirty B is myopic. Either that or he/she enjoys the view up his Ol Dirty B way too much We need a "City You Hate" thread. Or maybe a "City You Hate The Most" thread. Maybe a poll - won't work, too many cities. Maybe a thread to determine which cities are worthy of a "City You Hate Most" poll. Yeah, that's it. Maybe we could do an NCAA style "City You Hate" bracket. In the mean time, congrats on the NBA championship "Toronto is awful" folks! I've only been through the airport, but YYZ rocks!
