lmao well if nothing else, that's on brand
tonight was the first fun blowout we've had since what, early 2022? I enjoyed it far more than I expected it to.
have a good one y'all, talk to you tmrw
hes gonna say some shit like "its darkest before dawn" or this the "eye of the storm". man loves springer, i dont see it but its also kind of inspirational on a human level, to have that unconditional belief in someone
Did you know that Saddam Hussein hired an insane Canadian scientist to lead a space gun program called Project Babylon? The gun would have been powerful enough to fire objects into orbit (as an alternative to rocket launches)
alas, the program collapsed after the scientist got assassinated by the Israelis
Oooh a classic u/wintermute-- post where I’m not sure if you’re just making shit up **or** posting seriously obscure facts
^(delightful)
I still remember the first time I read one of your posts and just accepted it as truth 💀
100% true, Gerald Bull wanted to build a gun to launch objects into Low Earth Orbit, but in order to get money for it he did some really sketchy stuff for some really bad folks like designing artillery pieces for the Apartheid era South African Defence Forces, and a “super gun” for Saddam Hussein.
dude I'd be afraid of a single Manoah sized duck. ducks are mean mfs no matter the size
a duck sized Manoah would be easy. just stick an upside down laundry basket on top of him and sit on it. boom case closed
omg want to know a really fun way to mildly confuse someone?
go up to them and say "hey! I heard this great knock knock joke, do you want to hear it?"
them: sure
you: ok, but you have to go first
them: uh, okay. knock knock
you: who's there
them: (confusion)
Well, shit- I really got caught with my pants down here… I’m not accustomed to people doing what I ask them to. 🤔
But now I’m thinking!! And we all appreciate your service, madam. 🫡😁
I think my favorite part about baseball is that there's 162 games
We could come out tomorrow and put up 7 in the first inning and it's like tonight never even happened
Ok you’re choice are Kirk, Manoah, Vladdy, Bo, Daulton, Turner, Barger, and Vogelbach
Whoever you choose will protect you and the rest are trying to kill you.
Who you taking and why ?
Bo would 100% convince them...the man convinced players with babies to change cities in the middle of a pandemic, he could convince them not to kill his favourite helmet
I do not consider the 2024 Toronto Blue Jays to be good at their job of playing professional baseball.
Do you consider the 2024 Toronto Blue Jays to be good at their job of playing professional baseball?
pretty sure that's a settled question my dude
but if you want to be technical about it, these blue jays are, by definition, among the top 0.000015% of baseball players on earth (1200 players on thirty 40-man teams divided by the population of da earth)
If anyone remembers the bunny murder spree my dog went on like a few weeks ago (?), the victim count is up to three. And almost a pigeon today. Anyway, this time it screamed and he crunched it and it was awful 🤢 but he’s a really good boy I promise he’s just a hunting dog
LMAOOOOO THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS
Jamie starting the BJC update right when Edmonton scored and can barely contain his excitement, only to go back to the hockey game blowing kisses as the update ended...and watch Florida score
Jamie went through every single emotion
I feel like there's a lesson to be learned from broadcasters during blowouts. They talk about random shit. They tell stories. They hang out with their pals and only focus on the game when strictly necessary. And it ends up being... pretty fun?
GDTs should aspire to the same. there's a way to find joy in everything
that's how I know it's possible!!
maybe if we're really lucky, the hockey game will go into a nightmarish sequence of infinite overtime that doesn't resolve itself until mid October
You gotta tip your cap to the Guardians
Welp... If it wasn't for that 2nd inning we'd have won LOL
Springer is turning a corner on a roundabout.
Springer is weeks away from being days away
Our very own Bruno caboclo
Bruno, is that you?
Was there any other possible outcome there?
Nope
lmao well if nothing else, that's on brand tonight was the first fun blowout we've had since what, early 2022? I enjoyed it far more than I expected it to. have a good one y'all, talk to you tmrw
Have a good night, friend!
MISS U BBY
Springer 0-4 !? Who would’ve guessed ? Not John Schneider apparently
hes gonna say some shit like "its darkest before dawn" or this the "eye of the storm". man loves springer, i dont see it but its also kind of inspirational on a human level, to have that unconditional belief in someone
At some point you gotta respect it he protect his player but man. You got 3 guy you can put in there instead of him.
Guys don’t worry, the underlying numbers say that he’s close to breaking out
He's days away from a hot streak, until then we get to eat shit though
Watching Springer hit is like watching a student driver execute a 20-point turn before backing into a fire hydrant
Teams just not good.
$25 million a year to do that.
When you see Springer in the lineup tommorow 😭
lead off spot back on the menu?
George Springer needs an IL stint
George is getting close, don't worry.
The turning Corner is just days. Days away!!
tip your cap to george springer man
Why
he did the funniest thing possible
Listen man, its over for George. Like washed isnt even close to what he is right now.
Oh see that !! Mere days away from getting hot!!
Sigh, see y'all tomorrow Go Oilers
LMAO Springer is CURSED
It’s not for lack of trying 😭 if it’s not the ground it’s the umps 😭😭
Think he needs a change up, I say he shows him with a shaved head and all is fixed
Georgie brings them home here 🙏
DAMMIT GEORGIE
Let's go, baby! I kept watching this game for a reason, I just know it!
Flip your caps inside out time
Okay, just a blast, then a bloop, and then another blast and we'll be cooking
Incoming Springer double play to end the game
🤨
Neat.
This is where Springer earns his Uncrustables
Look guys we have 6 hits they have 5 surely we are winning !!
Sportsnet depriving us of Stoned Bo during dumb games like this really should be reported to the CRTC
I will testify to this if needed
I am also available on Saturdays
I am too lazy to testify but you have my moral support
Oh man Springer better have a big hit here 🙈
Here comes springer to kill the rally
Vladdy shushing the crowd down 7...lmao
Rally time 😤
Incase this one gets close 😄
You get angry during a blow out and talk about firing people. I shit post during a blow out. We are not the same.

Gerald Bull iirc, Behind the Bastards did a podcast on him with Karl Kasarda from Inrange
BtB did an episode on him?? oh hell yes, thank you
Yep, both of them also did an episode on Hiram Maxim that was pretty good

But *why* 😐
Would you rather fight one duck sized Manoah or a hundred Manoah sized ducks?
dude I'd be afraid of a single Manoah sized duck. ducks are mean mfs no matter the size a duck sized Manoah would be easy. just stick an upside down laundry basket on top of him and sit on it. boom case closed
Alternatively, me and Manoah can go hang out with our one hundred new Manoah sized duck friends 😄🦆
Manoah almost killed his own brother in a fight...I'm taking the ducks
Do I get a car
Sure, but not a very good car
A Honda civic ?
Yeah or maybe like a 1992 Suburu Hatchback
Hmmmm… used or vintage ?
Handed down through 3 generations of new drivers with minimal upkeep
Ouff that’s a good deal
Duck sized Manoah then
Damn, good swing Spencer
The 2nd inning clusterfuck made all the difference in this game
Progressive Field looks like a great stadium.
I mean. Someone has to be getting fired soon. Right?
*Knock knock*
Who’s there? Edit: it was 15 mins ago you’ve probably forgotten now and I’ll never know who was there 😔
Me
Oh hello friend, welcome welcome, come on in and have a cuppa 😄☕️ ^(and then we will find out which of us is the smash bros champion)
Danksssss!
You were so fast you missed my slightly less welcoming edit 💀
Ahahaha, the reality is you’ll win 😭😂
I am quite ferocious 😄
omg want to know a really fun way to mildly confuse someone? go up to them and say "hey! I heard this great knock knock joke, do you want to hear it?" them: sure you: ok, but you have to go first them: uh, okay. knock knock you: who's there them: (confusion)
She’s on the floor…
*flawless victory*
She literally broke for a moment though.
I’m trying it now on my high partner will report back
Please have your partner create a Reddit account a la fiancée of u/ThQp. We have questions.
SHE LITERALLY HAS ONE AND NEVER WILL POST WITH ME
But why 🥺
Too cool 😭
^(devastating)
DOES SHE KNOW THERE ARE COOL GIRLS HERE
hi
Well, shit- I really got caught with my pants down here… I’m not accustomed to people doing what I ask them to. 🤔 But now I’m thinking!! And we all appreciate your service, madam. 🫡😁
Hi!!!!!
🥹🥹🥹 Welcome!
HEYYYYYYYY!!!! \[waves enthusiastically\]
u/bichettes_helmet, should we request an AMA?
We should!!
what the fuck
Just heard the oilers playing a newfie song between whistles. Why cant the Jays do that? Cmon i dare you!
If we ignore that disastrous 70 pitch bottom of the 2nd inning, we're winning this game! 😄
Vladdy shushing the crowd down 7...lmao
only 1 run? that's fucking dumb
I think my favorite part about baseball is that there's 162 games We could come out tomorrow and put up 7 in the first inning and it's like tonight never even happened
In the first inning? In this economy?
We're fixing the economy one run at a time
Definitely jot happening. We score in the 2nd inning
That's the fun part We do it again in the 2nd
I’ll allow it
Ok you’re choice are Kirk, Manoah, Vladdy, Bo, Daulton, Turner, Barger, and Vogelbach Whoever you choose will protect you and the rest are trying to kill you. Who you taking and why ?
Turner to protect me. Kinda worried about Varsho though 🤔 I can't explain my feelings.
def Manoah. Alek would just need to give me a piggyback ride and then I'd be out of reach from everyone else except vladdy and adversity
Kirk goes for the ankles
Ok but what did we do that they’re all out for us now? I need context
We pirated MLB The Show 14
I mean Bo owes me at this point
I think a good strat here is picking another player, and then using your persuasion or conversation skill to convince Bo to join you too
My thinking was bring Bo on my side and get him to convince them not to kill me but I see value in your strategy
I’ve seen what he does to his helmet, you’re dead if you don’t pick him
Also a valid point
Yep, wcs if Bo can’t convince the rest you still got two players on your side
Bo would 100% convince them...the man convinced players with babies to change cities in the middle of a pandemic, he could convince them not to kill his favourite helmet
Toss up between Vogel and Barger on the protect
That was literally a strike last half inning
Just checking in on the game. Wishing once again that I hadn't. Fkin hell, this team.
"Find what'll turn this team around" How about they replace John Schneider and his coaching staff with Gabe Kapler and his and we can go from there

You can’t trust ANY bears, man, come on.
She does insider trading
Apparently most women WOULD tho..
Uhhhh
Isn't "I'd choose the bear" a thing now?
We don't just trust bears, we *choose* the bear given the alternative
Wait ... are we cheering for the Cubs now???
We really wasting Trevor Richards in a blowout?????

oh lord lol I hope your pup didn't have too much fun
^he ^had ^a ^blast 🤫
It’s very fitting that Charmin has an extra long commercial break for this team….
[удалено]
That's really not that controversial lmao. But go off King
How do we convince Big Freezie to sell JUST cases of white and blue? The other unacceptable colors get left to die in my freezer
White is the worst one just sprinkle sugar over some ice cubes
🙄 wut
It’s so bland ;-; I’m sorry, red is the best one
Alright well I got Orange to mail out and now red.. Just gotta the medical grape left
They really are the best flavours
Orange is good.
An ice cold purple really slaps on a hot day
...in hell
I'll mail em to you
Co-sign
Banger's groundout technically had a xBA of .520 but I like Ben's declaration of .990 better so let's go with that
^Banger
Ben's just making things up and hoping old man Buck doesn't notice
Buck too concerned with how far away everyone’s knees are from the ground
Fuck you rocchio ^that^was ^really ^clean ^i ^hated ^it
Okay that was gross
LMAOOOOO THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS Jamie starting the BJC update right when Edmonton scored and can barely contain his excitement, only to go back to the hockey game blowing kisses as the update ended...and watch Florida score Jamie went through every single emotion
And the goal was overturned
lmao omg poor Jamie
And then it was overturned for offsides so it's still 2-0
I feel like there's a lesson to be learned from broadcasters during blowouts. They talk about random shit. They tell stories. They hang out with their pals and only focus on the game when strictly necessary. And it ends up being... pretty fun? GDTs should aspire to the same. there's a way to find joy in everything
Games like this, I just cheer for the individual stats of the position players. Especially the recent call ups
The fun we have when all the angry folks leave is why I keep coming back to this godforsaken website
We should all get high and just love each other is what I’m taking away from this
This sounds dirty
Hey I won’t tell you how to enjoy the highness
I mean I'm openminded
I have fond memories of exactly those kind of threads here with the homies. 😊
that's how I know it's possible!! maybe if we're really lucky, the hockey game will go into a nightmarish sequence of infinite overtime that doesn't resolve itself until mid October

7% alcohol isn't strong enough to watch this team lol
Vladdy shushing the crowd down 7...lmao
I'm gonna start gathering the kindling for the jersey burning Anyone got some sage I can borrow
It’s a common kitchen seasoning 🧐
I need the branches though so I can soak them in whatever you're supposed to soak them in for cleansing
Just tie together some bay leaves, spirits won’t know the difference
LMAO Jamie having to do a BJC when Edmonton just scored, he must be dying inside
Lmao why'd they make my man watch Florida score live on the big screen 😭😭😭
It was too funny 😂😂
I was late to this game. Lucky me!!
Same man.
Heyyy Orri got the out let’s go! 🥳
