elizium Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Yeah, I'd argue it's more of an "Americans really love not pissing off multi-million corporate sponsors" thing than anything else. Well, how did Bud become a multi-million corporate sponsor if it wasn't for people drinking their terrible beer? Coulda been worse, I guess, he could be spraying Coors Light all over the place. Anyway, I'll stop being a beer snob now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 So the million dollar question Rippa and I are now pondering - WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HIRE A 700 YEAR OLD WOMAN TO RUN ON AND OFF THE FIELD??? Well given that Clint Hurdle needs surgery after this season for a hip injury, I am sure people were wondering why a 700 year old man was managing Pirates and waddling all over the dugout 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Swiped this from Deadspin, look at the kid in the crowd. . . I know how basbeball celebrations evolved as series got added, but really have a full on bear bash after winning one freaking game? COme on now. . . The little kid who sits in front of us at the Spokane Indians games does that stuff all the time And I'm with you...really? Celebrating a one-game playoff win? Seriously. You just won the World Series a couple years ago - this should just be a stepping stone. And treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSJ Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 We really need Stone Brewing (makers of Arrogant Bastard) to sponsor a major sport... Well, they did sponsor my last dart team... Not really a drinker, but made an exception during the dart season (which we won, of course), that's some goodass strong beer... Fuck all of Washington State's 3.2 swill. You haven't had a really shitty beer until you've tried 3.2 Bud. Simply ghastly. It's funny, now that I'm in a State that has all manner of strong beers, I've had a total of one beer in the last six years. It was an expensive oatmeal stout, which seemed just the thing for Christmas eve. Now I can't remember what brand it was, I recall the $6.00 a bottle price tag only too well. Oh yeah, the kid in that clip has got some timing down. We might be looking at the next Miggy Cabrera. Remember you saw it here first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beech27 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I got 26 years (can't count the 3 I wasn't alive for) of no playoff baseball, and now extra innings in back to back games. Free baseball! It's like getting a free dessert because the server forgot to enter your order... for 2 hours. And holy shit, we won game one with Vargas matching up against Weaver. Ventura and Shields to follow. What is happening? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Lucia Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 This Tigers-O's series is going to be a good one. If Detroit can do some damage against Baltimore's rotation, they can coast to a win. But if it turns into a battle of the bullpens...the Tigers are boned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 It could only be better if once they're both exhausted, Seattle sneaks out from under the tarp and steals the win. You'd think a Cardinal fan would know better than to reference 1985 and tarps in a short span of time. #NeverForgetVinceColeman P.S. I just realized today that the Cardinals have become the John Cena of baseball. I'm still processing that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhammedboehm Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 So you know TBS/TNT gribbing about a player maybe possible trying to steal signs while on second would have more impact if you didn't have a camera up the catchers crotch between pitches while he's giving signs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
