Milkman delivers

People probably remember my stance on Ozzie back in the day. Even I agree with this statement.

Also @Kyyle23 and @juddling were born, among some other greats.

Per Wikipedia: The "Olympic Rings" or platinum sombrero applies to a player striking out five times in a game.[4] A horn refers to a player striking out six times in a game; the term was coined by pitcher Mike Flanaganafter teammate Sam Horn of the Baltimore Oriolesaccomplished the feat in an extra-inning game in 1991.[5][6] Alternate names for this accomplishment are titanium sombrero or double platinum sombrero.[7]

Completely unrelated to the game, but I definitely walked past Justin Verlander on Michigan Ave. today.

And Superstar Billy Graham.

I meant more in terms that they’re winning when I’m not watching. But again, I think the nightmare scenario is the Sox winning the division with an approximately .500 record, getting trounced in the first round, but then using the division title to keep the same leadership in place for the next ten years.

If that’s coming back, then that’s great. Right now I have the Tulin power that only pushes you forward. It’s nice, but not what I prefer haha.

I know he’s not lighting up the world, but it seems like everyone dislikes Sheets. For being used pretty sporadically and in at different positions, he still seems to me like one of our better hitters.

I really really miss the updraft power from the last game. I used that all the time.

Yeah, I’m having a hell of a time figuring out when to use the new powers (especially the climb one). I’ll screw around trying to figure out how to get something done, then realize how simple it is. I’m just not used to the powers yet. Like I literally just forget that I have them.

I’ve started watching the last two games only to turn them off in favor of the new Zelda. Maybe I should keep doing that.

Either of you play it yet? I’m liking it, but not as much as I was hoping. It’s still too early in the game to say because I’m probably only around 1% through it, but I’m wondering if I built it up too much waiting all those years for it to come out.

My man, reading your posts makes me feel like I never left. You go off on some crazy ass tangents. Never change.

I find myself in a very odd place. I gave up watching baseball almost entirely for years (I’d watch the later postseason games occasionally). This season I’ve had more time schedule-wise to watch games and I’ve had the urge to watch games. I have absolutely no faith in the team to do well and I don’t really even care how they perform, but I’m just happy to watch baseball again. Well, kind of half-watch and play on my phone or do household chores. Honestly, they’ve been so bad as to be entertaining to me.

On closer inspection, these are loafers.

Am I misunderstanding this, or are you saying that there’s incentive to keep the attendance under 1.9 million?

I don’t think they have the talent in the minors to bring anyone in. And even if we traded some minor league talent and they turned into something, they wouldn’t have reached that potential in this organization anyway. It almost doesn’t matter either way, as long as the same people are running the show.

Exactly this. I know I’m not walking away from that money, especially when no one else is gonna hire me.

No doubter immediately. Wow.

I…did not know that haha. I’ve been a very casual fan for some time now.

Nobody is taking that pick from the A’s. Nobody.

Kinda seems like that’s already happened. I’ve been checking in sporadically over the last two seasons or so, and it seems like nobody posts very much. And this place used to be jumping.

I know that wasn’t the easiest play, but I’ve been very unimpressed with Benintendi’s defense. We all know about the lack of offense.

Hello, old friends and new. Kyyle, thanks again for getting my password cleared up.

You could choose not to give it any weight. It's free speech, guys. Whether you agree with what it stands for or not, it's anyone's right to fly a Confederate or nazi flag. And Balta, you never really answered the question of what you would do to prevent a shooting like this. You just made a smarmy remark.
