    Let's hope so... Rosario could play CF in a pinch, but I'd prefer seeing Granite there instead of Rosario moving over and Grossman playing in a corner spot.

    Happy Tuesday! We've got some goodies to talk about today.... Today is National Fettuccine Alfredo Day! This dish was invented by Alfredo di Lelio in 1908, because his wife did not have an appetite after giving birth to their first son! I love alfredo sauce.... And vodka sauce is even better IMO.... Today is also National Send a Card to a Friend Day! So YOU get a card! YOU get a card! YOU ALL get a card!!! Today is also National Red Day... According to studies and science, today is the most likely day that couples will break up.... 1 week before Valentine's Day. On this day in 1935, Parkers Brothers begins selling a board game that became wildly popular! In fact, it is the best selling game of all time! That game is Monopoly! I love this game, but don't love the fact that a game can take HOURS to complete. Also, on this day in 1964, the biggest rock band in the world made their US debut! https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=30&v=IZeETf2pYUo

    As I said in the other thread, this is the type of waiver wire move to make in order to end the D Santana era. There's probably a 10% chance Light gets claimed, so he'll end up in AAA. I'll like this move a lot more if Adrianza is also DFA'd so we can clean up this mess on the 40 man roster.

    100% chance our phones will auto-correct Adrianza to Adrian or Ariana.

    My favorite line: "Adrianza looked lost at times last year, like someone who learned how to play baseball from a book he found on the airplane seat next to him."
  6. Vanimal46
    He has to be somewhat of a slick fielder in order to stick on a 40 man roster hitting at a .605 OPS clip. Depth is nice.... And removing Light from the 40 man isn't a big loss. I don't know... Just trying to say something positive.

    This should have been the type of waiver wire claim to end the D Santana era....

    I also did not know Hawley was attached to Legion. That alone will draw me to tune in, even though X-Men isn't really my thing. Hawley is approaching Coen Brothers territory, where if their name is attached to it, I'm giving it a chance.
  9. Vanimal46
    Agreed. Whether it's injury or ineffectiveness, this group of names will sort itself out soon enough.

    Another mind.boggling. thing about Atlanta's offense in the 4th quarter: They were snapping the ball with 15-20 seconds left on the play clock. Overall they were playing like THEY were trailing in the 4th quarter, not the other way around.

    I need to jump back on Vikings.... Binged the first season or 2 on Amazon Prime, then forgot about it after that.
  12. Vanimal46
    It does in all of us.... I'm over the 1999 championship game.... The Falcons have been just as mediocre as the Vikings since that time. I'm very tired of the Cheatriots story. And this win will make their fan base as insufferable as ever.

    I enjoyed Gaga's halftime show... It was pretty smooth transitioning from one song to the next, and she was able to get the crowd choreographed with her dancing on stage which was cool to see. Apparently they had drones above them doing a light show, but we couldn't see it on the broadcast. The commercials were very meh this year. None stand out in my mind... We were doing prop bets at the party I attended such as first animal featured on a commercial, first car brand commercial, first pizza commercial, first fast food commercial, etc. I was getting crushed....
  14. Vanimal46
    Agreed... What was Shanahan thinking by abandoning the run? That Julio Jones amazing sideline catch should have been the final nail in the coffin... Run 3 times, burn a minute or so off the clock, kick a FG to go up 11 with 3-ish minutes left.

    My pen: Hughes (long reliever) Kintzler Pressly Rogers Belisle Chargois Open competition between Boshers / Hildenberger / Melotakis / other AAA reliever With the addition of Belisle, I'm not sure Haley sticks as a Rule 5 pick.... Tonkin experiment is over.

    Halloween is a long time away.... I don't really want to get excited about this yet, cause that means baseball is nearing the end.
  17. Vanimal46
    Concur. It is a problem giving one of, if not the worst MLB player playing time 36% of the time.

    My buddy is currently smoking brisket as well.... WAY more excited for the grub tonight than the game. Menu tonight: Brisket BBQ chicken sliders Queso Pizza dip Spinach dip Chili Cookies and other assorted desserts

    The Wire is my latest binge show! It wasn't on my radar while it was on live TV... Loving it so far through S1:E8!

    Kudos to you for still playing pickup basketball! We used to have a company basketball team that I attempted to play in... Until one of my mid-30's co-workers tore his achillies making a move towards the basket. Our team dispersed after that.

    My favorite local coffee shop is Summer Moon ... It's wood fired coffee, and when they put their "moon milk" in there, holy buckets it is delicious. I also refuse to give my business to Fourbucks.

    Concur with rearranging the order in the Sports Bar... But so far, the revamp looks great!

    That's the weird thing about Minnesota.... If we don't have (insert major chain restaurant here) then we beg for them to come to MN. For example, Dunkin' Donuts was the latest craze the last time I was up there. Then that major chain shows up, we realize it's not that great, and they close down within a couple of months. There's so many local places to give business to, we should continue doing that, no matter where we live.
