  1. Though the thing is, it's not a lodge. Craft Stand for the creatives Frank's Fridge (*not selling big hurt brew) Buehrle's Brews AJs A Joyous Collection of Beer Microbrew Market
  2. This is a big thing for me not because I ordered from there (I'm a normie man excited about Miller lite for the aluminum bottles presumably now sold to me with walking vendors???) but because even though I understood that they were using the alliterative "K" for it's relationship to the strikeout symbol, it all felt a little too "Karz 4 Kidz" to me.
  3. Eh let's cut him some slack. Adolfo had a rough comeback after his TJS in 2019, then the pandemic happened with no minors so he started in Birmingham to start the year where he crushed 18 home runs, then went to charlotte where we thought he'd have a 50% k rate, and instead kept hitting dingers but actually cut down on his krate from birmingham (still at 32%). Problem is he isn't a versatile outfielder, but I'm sure sox would say now it's 3 deep at CF for Robert > Engel > Leury. But all 3 of them have injury issues.
  4. nobody has enough power and just because someone sucks at hitting for power doesn't make them some whizz at getting situational hits. I know we all loved mark kotsay hitting grounders to second base every time up, but at least he wasn't hitting doubles. That would have really set them back.
  5. It appears we DID get coke, and I am happy about that.
  6. You know who was better than Adam Haseley? Luis Gonzalez, our 6th outfielder last year who is know on the Giants and was actually able to play a good center field.
  7. He runs like he's in cement compared to 2019 and hits for toddler power. Our right handed hitters can slam grounders off right handed pitching just fine already.
  8. Excuse me sire the piping plovers are chicagos most cherished bird and famously nest on montrose beach. A real birder delight.
  9. Totally agree. not afraid to repost my own work I was very proud of (took >5 minutes) but posted to the outdated thread.
  10. Tampa never seems hurt by any one piece.
  11. It seems like Miller just wanted as much real estate as possible in the park, or as little distraction from their coor products. Which, cool, we get to see the white sox use this money now on Craig Kimbrel.
  12. Guys after organizing our fan power to try fire hahn, tlr, and southpaw, I think our next act should be to try and replace the goose with something we prefer. Miller and Coors never had leo burnett create a dumb animal spokesperson, so we have complete freedom here. The goose was beautiful, it was frightening, I both wanted it pristine but also desperately wanted to see it get what it deserved (hit with a baseball because it chased me on golf courses). This is the best replacement I could do, with the pristigious, punchable piping plovers
  13. Oh no the goose is gone? Our dream of sparks flying out of its eyes when it's hit by a baseball are crushed. They should just keep a goose, unaffiliated to any product. And just have it be one of those things fifty years from now where we are like "yeah that's the outfield goose. Just one of those things"
  14. One thing is man could we please get coke instead of pepsi? I don't understand why they hate their fans so much.
  15. Well those miller lite aluminum pints are the best stadium beers since they can't get kicked over and get real cold. A+ happy to have it be the thingy again.
  16. He's better than 2018 Adam Engel, worse than every iteration after.
  17. Has any player been successfully unwound from that "hit like you are in tball" style?
  18. one of the reasons they have no OF depth is because Haseley was part of their depth and he sucks. Anyway look forward to Phillies signing conforto in an hour.
  19. Madrigal has more power than haseley. I hope he ends up being one of these transformative players and my worst takes but anyway haseley sucks, I was glad we didn't get him in 17 or whatever, and Brian Goodwin is better thanks for my ted talk.
  20. I would assume given this insane amount of dollars in the bullpen the depth is going to come from bullpen days plus getting some innings from a lambert/mcclure/finnegan oh god sorry I started puking
  21. I feel like bears fan dialogue always settles into front office homers and antagonists, and I worry I'm just becoming a homer. It's not like I think what they've chosen was the only path and any player I liked they didn't sign is excused, but I just think this is what it looks like when you are being disciplined and following your own evals. I'm sure a lot of these names that I actually know have scouting reports indicating they are falling off a cliff. I guess this is about what I expected this year, but that was also contingent on liking the tackles. But I guess it's worse off if it's true they don't like Jenkins, Borom. We'll see though. Not a sign of success or failure yet, but this is more in line of what I expected a more disciplined front office to look like.
  22. mlb alert "Nick Ciuffo doubles in a run" My Brain : Ah, shoot, tie game "The white sox extend their lead" My Brain: MMM, yes, Nick Ciuffo. White sox.
  23. Oooh good call. I had not memory-holed this as a 2005 thing.
  24. this was good https://www.theguardian.com/film/2022/mar/28/dont-mention-that-slap-why-no-one-was-talking-about-will-smith-and-chris-rock-at-the-oscars-after-party
