You know it's a good comment when you, @Riverbrian and @wsnydes all comment on it.

And yes ... not that I want to be thrown around by a grizzly, but I think freezing to death in the north Atlantic and then having your frozen, dead body sink to the depths is a worse way to go

Polar Bear would be really frightening.

Yup.  He has had it with Rocco's style.

Oh, come on ... he was NOT pitching well. I give him props for wanting to keep going, but pulling him in this case was the right call

Rona Barrett would take this story and run with it!

I'll give you frightening ... just not more morbid

[Riverbrian]

BTW if anybody is interested in my Palmist. She is good… I highly recommend her. 

Hard to find though. I was found her by accident. she is located on Emerson Lake. 

What a lucky man I was.

And I can't even tell what's happening in this one ... my glasses just don't show me enough clarity

It’s not your eyes. This was just a fuzzy scene and poor camera work. If you don’t recognize the scene immediately then you need to add Monty Python and the Holy Grail to your watch list. Sooner the better.

I have never seen any pitcher not want to stay in a game no matter how bad they perform. If there ever was a starter who says otherwise,  I wouldn't want him on the team

Getting mauled by a giant grizzly doesn't exactly sound like paradise either!

On a scale of 1 to 100 I give this comment a 92.1ROCK

I'm betting her last name was Palmer.

I’ve seen that one, sort of. I fell asleep watching it

A palmist named Palmer? 

No

She is just a regular ole Emerson Lake Palmist

Her last name was Carl... If I remember right.

That's going to confuse the people in New Jersey who use one of those middle fingers to say hello. 

New Jersey is very friendly that way.  

That’s because you can’t understand a word they say!

It has become absolutely impossible to follow TD, not to speak of a GT on my iPad. Kicks me out, ads over flash during typing, sometimes it simply kicks me to the message, "something g went wrong"!  Yesterday I had a paragraph typed, and it disappeared, this missive has been interrupted twice. It’s simply unusable.  Ps: iPad shows me current on updates.

@Brock Beauchamp, do you have any suggestions?

Didnt say it was right or wrong to pull him.  Just pointing out that it is obvious he does not like Rocco's style.  He hasnt going back to last year.

I don’t really think that’s the issue, tbh. It’s not about Rocco’s style. Rocco has been letting pitchers go deeper. But Graybdidnt have it and was pulled. The man is a competitor. He wants to pitch. He wasn’t pitching well. It’s what it is

It’s doubtful that my technical knowledge would surpass that of anyone that works for TD, ergo my input would have any effect. I noticed a comment from someone else on here of the same iPad issue? Maybe it’s just iPads?

I tagged Brock in my message so that he'd see the issue and perhaps have some suggestions for you or knew how to fix it.  Or do some legwork behind the scenes.  

You could always PM him directly too.  He might be able to help.
