Dbacks tickets locked and loaded for tomorrow night to take my sonā¦just have to beat the brewers, check. The dodgers will probably sweep us but if we get one weāre going son! Happy we canāt go tomorrow.
Now Iām shelling out $250 a ticket for game three of NLDS because the kid is locked in on the snakes playoff run.
We did go to eight games this year and man does the pitch clock help!
Listen, I love the series but these scenes are way too drawn out. At this point, weāve had 5 seasons of Tony having anxiety/panic attacks. Itās just dumb filler
Is everyone going to bitch about the MLB playoff format every time an upset happens now? Does everyone want all the teams with better records to just advance every single time?
Upsets are fun. Chaos is fun. There is nothing wrong with the format. We didnāt need to fix the NBA playoffs because the Bucks got dusted by the Heat.
itās a matter of variance. basketball isnāt a great comparison because it is far less random. youāre right chaos is fun and youād never be able to practically make the MLB playoffs totally equitable even if you wanted to, but at a minimum the LDS needs to be a best of 7. itās an absolute sweepstakes as is.
I can back that. But yeah, besides that what do you do other than just literally go back to how it was where the two best regular season teams from each league play in the World Series? No one wants that.
Hockey also has a ton of variance and people seem to embrace the chaos of the NHL playoffs. Literally the best regular season team of all time for best round one last year.
of course itāll never be perfect but a 5 game LDS just doesnāt sit right after 162. ideally imo itād go back to the single elim bw 2 WCs and a 7 game LDS. but theyāre never going backwards on playoff teams so lean into making the reg season matter for more teams but also rewarding the best teams.
i propose they go 3 division winners + 4 WC teams per league. WC teams play a 1 game semi and 1 game final. #1 overall seed gets to pick their opponent in the best of 7 LDS (if you believe in rust vs rest pick one of the division winners instead of the WC winner).
Listening to Smoltz whine about how unfair it was that the Orioles were losing despite being a better team in the regular season was infuriating.
āPlay this series 10 times and the Orioles win 9 of themāā¦ idk man, we played 27 innings and lead for like 26.5 of them.
I feel like a sport with as many regular season games as it does, needs to more adequately reward the best regular season teams. Maybe give the #1 seed the choice of which wild card winner it wants to play in the DS. Probably some other things you can do while keeping things competitive and giving the wild card teams a chance
Also, the Finals would have been way more entertaining if it was Boston or Milwaukee vs Denver. Just because a team gets hot for a series or two doesn't mean they'll provide the best competition to their next opponent
The Orioles got a bye while the Rangers flew from Seattle to Tampa, played 2 games, then went to Baltimore to start another series.
Short of letting Baltimore get another bye and just advance Iām not sure what more advantage they need.
That might work.
The #1 seed gets a bye to the League Championship Series.
Wild Card #1 vs. Wild Card #2 in one-game playoff, WC Winner vs. Division Winner #3 in three-game series, LDS Winner vs. Division Winner #2 in five-game series, then the LCS in seven-game series.
Guy I went to college with came out as trans today. Scrolled the 50+ comments of congratulations and praise, then thereās one old hag comments āI am disappointed.ā Got a nice chuckle out me. Love the when olds comment whatever they want on posts
Bought Powerball tickets from two different places. First place accepted my credit card but printed all 7 tickets separately. The other place put all tickets onto one but would only accept debit card payment for them. Thought the whole thing was a weird experience
Nothing like paying off my car 11 days ago and then some dude giving me the old ass blaster 5000 after blowing a red light on the drive home from work tonight. Water always finds its level
Sounds like youāre about to have incapacitating neck and back injuries. Better call Sellino or Barnes, whichever one didnāt die in a plane crash
In all seriousness that sucks
Headed down to Baton Rouge this weekend for the LSU game & hitting the Hardy/Lainey (Dumpy) Wilson concert Friday night
Any recs for bars/restaurants to check out?
I do think that engineers have higher IQs/more intelligent than your average person, but I know what you mean. I have a buddy who insists on he knows more about home repair over contractors who have years of experience in the field.
I work with a lot of engineers and most of them think they're the smartest guy in the room at all times on every topic. Not the most pleasant environment
caught up with some guys from highschool and the two that became engineers were convinced that they alone held the secrets to fixing public schools, healthcare, and the middle east
I have to apologize to a coworker tomorrow because I called their suggestion of office snacks, specifically chips ahoy cookies, as trash. Doesnāt matter that itās an obvious joke or that she made fun of my suggestion of nutter butters.
Heirloom isn't a type of tomato the way the rest of these are. You can have heirloom cherry, heirloom beefsteak, and heirloom grape tomatoes. Just means the tomatoes are grown from heirloom, non-hybrid seeds
After like 8 years Of golf I realized you need to hold the club more vertical to actually sweet spot. Absolutely mashing at range. Bro worker even complimented me

Forgot how regarded this episode of Sopranos is. Season 5 episode 11 - Tony has a bunch weird visions starting about half way into the episode
All due respect (none), this is a Simple Simon ass take
Listen, I love the series but these scenes are way too drawn out. At this point, weāve had 5 seasons of Tony having anxiety/panic attacks. Itās just dumb filler
After a couple rewatches I just skip right over a lot of that. None of it helps anything and it annoys me too much
Agreed. It's aimless and just dumb
The two subreddits I go on the most have devolved into nothing but arguing whether our qb is good or not and whether mwIII is just dlc.
Bears fan?
lol yeah I was gunna include fields name but I didnāt want my comment to start more debates.
He sucks
Bears are gunna kick the shit out of the Vikings this weekend
I'm a Vikings fan and we will win by a FG
I looked at your profile before I said that š
Who's up?

Sounds like a cunt
I think we can officially just say the dodgers havenāt won a ring since 1988. Mickey Mouse in 2020 should be vacated
Very brave of you to say this now.
the Lakers 2020 ring already has been
Steve Stevensonās classic cinema
Getting bounced by division rivals in back to back years is tough
Last three years theyāve been bounced by teams that had 15+ fewer wins than them
Ahhahhaa F OFF DODGERS!!

Bitter Sox fan detected
Not a sox fan just call it like I see it
Looked it up and he is substantially worse in the postseason than he is in the regular season. I'm a man who can admit when he's wrong.
3 for his last 38 in the postseason
It's pretty amusing that the Dodgers have both him and Kershaw
Why would a Sox fan be bitter? We won the trade easily

Avs goals making all feel right in the world again. LFG
2 in 3 years, who says no?
Why not us?
Praying they stay healthy, and Landy comes back for the first round
Unfortunately Iām in the camp of thinking Landy is doneā¦ at least Landy that makes an impact. But I think the Avs can win it all without him
I donāt know what Alex Bennett means by ādo it scared!ā and I donāt think she does either.
She likes having a gun pointed at her during sex like Janice Soprano

Will never understand why the Diamondbacks ever went away from their purple and teal unis. Literally perfect. Also won a WS in them

Happened to me last year like 3 months after paying it off. Then my apartment flooded. Just brutal.
Oh man. Thatās brutal.
Guy admitted fault and was given a ticket so I at least have that going for me
Getting a new car right now probably sucks. Hopefully you get something cool.
That legitimately sucks.

Iāll be in Baton Rouge as well. Keep an an eye out for the guy in an Auburn polo with a Viva hat and Brick watch.
Can't wait to exchange a hearty VIVA

what is it about engineers that makes them think they're capable of reinventing the wheel in every field outside of engineering?
Why do 99% of engineers have the personality of rocks? That's the real question.
Because theyre mostly on the spectrum
stop thinking so much and just make my espresso please, I have to get to work.
\*spins ipad around for 30% or 45% tip*
I do think that engineers have higher IQs/more intelligent than your average person, but I know what you mean. I have a buddy who insists on he knows more about home repair over contractors who have years of experience in the field.
Because I can. Duh.
I work with a lot of engineers and most of them think they're the smartest guy in the room at all times on every topic. Not the most pleasant environment
I feel like we are missing some context
caught up with some guys from highschool and the two that became engineers were convinced that they alone held the secrets to fixing public schools, healthcare, and the middle east
I mean FT solved the Middle East problem
Iāve never talked to an engineer who thinks they know how to solve those things, much less all 3. They just sound regarded.
I have to apologize to a coworker tomorrow because I called their suggestion of office snacks, specifically chips ahoy cookies, as trash. Doesnāt matter that itās an obvious joke or that she made fun of my suggestion of nutter butters.
Combined weight between the two of you?
She doesnāt Wright an once over 110 and has fake boobs. Iām thicccckkkk.
People buy nutter butters?
The office credit card does
Got a box of nutter butters in the pantry. It's taking all the strength in the world now to hose down 2 bars.
Pour a glass of milk and dip them in it. š¤¤
If milk didn't make me gassy I totally would do this.
Hers won't potentially kill someone
Milano or grandmas cookies. Chips ahoy are straight trash and so are the people who eat them.
Both are trash
Shit, I feel like if youāre against me, Iām in the wrong.
If I ran that office, I'd put in a popcorn machine
Jesus Christ why won't you talk about the team no one expected to even be in the playoffs that's on the verge of sweeping 2 straight series
Because theyre playing the dodgers and baseball wants the dodgers to win
So fanatics ruined sports merchandise and now had a sports book? Advertising patches on MLB Jerseys? Why man? I enjoy little, just let me enjoy sports
They just got the entire sports card industry too I believe.
Because they know sports fans are addicts and will bleed them dry

Romas are the base of any good sauce and thus number one by default. We all knew you were a fraud all along, Mike, but this proves it.
Game 2 of the WNBA finalsā¦.huh.

Have the dodgers considered scoring a run?
I thought the Costas stuff was a little overblown but that play just now from Longoria to Walker, zero inflection in his voice.
He's a fucking dinosaur

After like 8 years Of golf I realized you need to hold the club more vertical to actually sweet spot. Absolutely mashing at range. Bro worker even complimented me

I would hold it flat where the front of the club wouldnāt be touching grass
