Unless you're actually interested in talking about the game. That's the last thing Game Threads are for.
-
How about anything by Elvis, guy was a walking cover song and pretty much relegated almost every original to also ran status.
-
Little known fact and although I far prefer the Springsteen version, The Manfred Mann version of Blinded by the Light is Springsteen's only Number 1 song as a songwriter.

I said 4, not 10, quit copping out.
-
Full recordings, I guess that's what you call them now. Back in the day you could just say "albums" or even "CD's", now the kids just look at you funny.
-
4 albums you'd want if you were stranded on a deserted island.........................go! Edit, I said it anyway Craig, Ha!
-
Ford was 46, not 54.

Nothing like a nice charcuterie plate with some fresh warm French bread and a tasty IPA, it warms the soul. Concur on the strawberries, I don't buy them here in winter, pick them fresh from farms in the summer.
-
Sigh, me as well but I'm guessing at least 85% of participants also do too.
-
Pretty mad tourney so far eh? Crazy, I love it!
-
Agreed, that's pretty basic physics if you ask me, and I'm no physics major. The pounding on the joints of a man the size of Sano running at full sprint numerous times a game is going to be significant. It's a pounding enough on a 200lb frame, let alone 60-75 lbs heavier.
-
I agree for the most part that athletes are bigger than 20 years ago, however proportionally things are still very much the same. Pointing out guys like Mauer, Trout and Hamilton have all been successful being much larger than the average player in their respective positions doesn't make it some kind of universal truth, they are still exceptions. Just because the average player is bigger these days hardly means we're going to eventually see 6'3, 230 lb short stops, 7 foot catchers or as in this case, 6'5 270 lb outfielders as the norm. I think that's just flat out wrong. Ultimately that's all just a bunch of noise anyway, this is really just about whether Sano can adequately play RF, which I have strong doubts he can. How much it's really going to matter is probably the bigger debate.
-
Well, about that Northern Iowa thing.........
-
I'm guessing there are pretty good reasons it's been 46 years since anyone decided to put a man the size of Sano in the outfield.

Potato Chips are my kryptonite, although I have cut back a little it's rare to not be eating potato chips when watching a sporting event, and I watch a lot of sporting events. My standard go to has always been the good old fashioned Old Dutch Rip-L chip, no dip thanks. Also a fan of Kettle Salt and Pepper Miss Vicki's Jalepeno Miss Vicki's Sea salt and Vinegar Old Dutch Creamy Dill Ruffles Sour Cream and Onion Kettle New York Cheddar Hickory Sticks Ruffles All Dressed Too big a list.

Well that's good, I just didn't want him to dig himself too deep a hole.
-
Careful now....

I try my best to live in the moment, so I'm my happiest pretty much all the time..............except when people piss me off on baseball forums by not following the rules.
