That winning streak was awesome. Let's do that again.

1 - Greatly expand international scouting and academies. The current trend is scouting Latin America. Could Europe, Asia, or Africa yield quality players? 2 - Poach quality scouts from other clubs.

I'm watching all of the episodes for the second time. I'm currently on season 2 and the Kim storyline (nanny and abusive husband) might be the least compelling thing I've ever watched.

This is the Pirates. The Brewers will win. That is all.

Can Jean Segura pitch?

I just read on rotoworld that the Brewers made Segura a long term offer. Any details available?

What was the white stuff blowing around in the beginning of the game? It looked like some type of plant.

Jean Segura is good at playing baseball. I really wish the Brewers had some pitching. This team is going to put up some crazy offensive numbers once Hart gets back.

Larry Sanders was snubbed, correct?

Would these be tickets from the Polish gnome giveaway? Just curious.

I'm considering dropping Jason Hammel from my team. Would you drop him for Scott Kazmir or Heath Bell?

Yikes. When is this train wreck happening?

Uecker just dropped a Rubén Quevedo bobblehead promo. Pretty funny stuff.

Does anyone outside of BF call him the YuniBomber?

What if the windows were open? The neighbor might still smell it. Thanks though.

Did we really need another "Manager X is Terrible Thread?"

On the bright side... I really dig the unis.

Aoki! Hell of a throw.

How does Miller look tonight? I keep waiting for him to get shelled (I have him on my fantasy team) because he pounds the zone and only throws two pitches.

Wouldn't it make sense to bat Weeks 8th at this point?

Welcome back, A-Ram. You've been missed.

Ok. I'm glad it's not just my friends and I who think this is a ludicrous request.

This is two separate houses. Folks will typically smoke on my front porch. There is about 25 that separate the two properties. It appears that they have a problem with anyone smoking on any part of the property.

A few days ago my roommate received a call from our landlord because he got a complaint from our neighbor about cigarette smoke. According to the neighbor the smoke blows into their house (I don't know how this is really possible given where our houses are located and where people smoke). I think the complaint is more about how they can smell smoke. A few of our house guests smoke and I will smoke occasionally too. My roommate (an attorney) who lives for arguments confronted the neighbors and it got a bit heated. To make a long story short, the neighbors want anyone who smokes to walk around the block to do it. This seems completely unreasonable to me, but I want to be a good neighbor. Any suggestions on how to handle this? My thoughts as of now... - We live in a city and therefore live in close proximity to people. Not everyone has the same habits, lifestyles, etc. - The neighbor used to smoke. Seems hypocritical. - The neighbor called our landlord instead of talking to us. I don't call the bank when I have a problem with a homeowner. - I've walked down the block to have a smoke since the incident, but its not relaxing or enjoyable. I also feel a bit creepy walking to the end of the block and back at night. The solution I was going to propose to the neighbor is: - I'll walk to the end of the block under normal circumstances. - I will not make guests leave my house. - I will not leave the house when I have guests. - I will not leave when its raining. I feel like compromising is giving in to some very unrealistic expectations for city living though.
