  1. At times he has the sinker from hell. Ceiling is Jon Garland
  2. Look at our flag next to theirs. Such disrespect
  3. Conferences still have power to govern that. So its not that much different.
  4. At Eckert park, there was one season where there was 2-3 real brawls on the field and I just stood in LF watching. That was my last 12in season.
  5. I had it once where the other team (in coed) showed up with 3 girls from the pro softball team in town. They played 3B, SS and 2B and slaughtered us.
  6. Exactly why I stopped playing mens 12in league. Too many "former' baseball players trying to beat each other up.
  7. China literally released information from the Trump/Kim meeting before the US did. They are directly in control of this situation.
  8. They've signed this before. They will walk it all back. We legitimized kim and gave up our standing on the world stage. Fantastic work.
  9. Im of the opinion that Rodon may come around and we need him as a top of the rotation guy. Of course since he's made of glass, if they can get a kings ransom after a few good starts you have to flip him.
  10. Soria Has turned himself into an interesting trade piece. Rondon and Garcia could be pieces for a contending team. I dont think they are going to flip any of the core guys like Abreu, Yolmer, Jones. The pitching staff could come around and we could start competing next year.
  11. Lebron isnt going anywhere, but I do believe players are going to join him.
  12. Just like with AA and other recovery organizations, I am a big fan of peer counseling. Sometimes only people who have fallen in the hole know how to help you crawl out. Too many times for me back in the day, people just dismissed it as sadness. Too many times people are told to "suck it up" or are blown sunshine over and over. Really what you need is someone who understands and knows the dark days or moments you are facing. And even then, sometimes thats not enough. Anxiety has become more mainstream, where people are ok with wearing that badge. Depression and other illnesses arent there yet. Thats super unfortunate, and its one of the main reasons suicide is on the rise. Giving up seems way easier. i think more and more people just need to make themselves available. Text, email, message board, whatever. Just be available.
  13. I wouldnt count on Crawford coming back. We need several pieces to be a real contender, hopefully they can make those moves.
  14. I’ve both researched and battled depression myself. The key piece of healthy living is having someone to support and talk to you. Far too often people feel like they are left on an island with no way off. I could go on and on about the subject for hours but at the end of the day, I am personally available for anyone who needs it. I don’t give a fuck if I know you or not. You are not alone. I’ll gladly share my direct contact info with anyone who thinks they need it. There is nothing wrong with asking for help, in fact as someone who has been there, you should.
  15. He is a moron and everyone in the world knows it. Defending him is equally moronic. Conservative viewpoints and leadership are a fine thing to present. But this guy isn’t that. He’s making a mockery of that side of the aisle and nobody seems to have the balls to stand up.
  16. Palka is no worse than Schwarber in the field. Maybe if he hits like him we can find a spot. But DH is his likely destination.

    2018 catch-all

    Depends on your neighbors. If one of them reports it, then you will be dinged. If nobody does, I bet its fine.
  18. That one hurts. I love watching his shows.
  19. Iron sharpens iron for sure, and their defensive skills improved with each other. But he's still an all timer.
  20. The media is so mean to my wife that I repeatedly cheat on with hookers and porn stars -DJT
  21. 3,250 lies directly to the American people. Not even halfway through his presidency. Amazing statistic
  22. She only does that for all of the advantages in the world.
