    I'm actually waiting for a defensive player to just say, "Screw it" and just level a quarterback who is clearly now a RUNNER. Especially when many quarterbacks now do a semi-fake dive and run past the defender who pulled up and gains an extra 5-10 yards (or way more, in some cases).

    It’s been in the teens here iN NW Arizona the last few mornings. Everybody else is saying how freezing it is. It’s been chilly. But that’s about it. Winter coat? Yep. Zipped up? Nah. i do understand, though. You spend enough time in a climate and your body adapts. So people here think 40° is cold. I think it’s great. I guess I have too many memories of being in that -40° wind chill crap that these Arizona “winters” still are mild as heck. (similarly, summers are blisteringly hot, but it’s so dry that it’s really not all that bad to me. The humidity kills me so I’m glad we only get that during monsoon season.) EDIT: Have to share . . . we are under a winter weather advisory for Sunday/Monday. The school district is already mulling over cancelling school. Seriously. We'll probably get an inch if we're lucky. It definitely will not be another Snowmageddon (we got 13" in one 12-hour period back in 2019! It was amazing!)

    There was this tiny part of me that thought, "well, maybe Ueck didn't tell him about the cancer! And now Robin is upset that he wasn't in the inner circle for that information." And then I said, "yeah, right . . . "

    I also find it strange that I haven't seen any comment from Robin Yount on Uecker's passing. Did I just miss it?

    I gotta be honest. This season has been great! I say this because I have hardly watched any of the games. Those few times I did tune in, they lost. Badly. So now the wife and I decided no more watching the games and they’ve done really well! Coincidence? Yeah, probably. But less stress and more “free time” for us not watching the games! I suppose when it comes to tournament time, I’ll tune in just on principle.

    Ha! That didn't take long! Didn't they just make those "Aaron Judge-proof" moves of the wall just a couple of years ago? Too funny!

    Redraft leagues can be awesome if you have the same type of guys you describe. I’m the commissioner of a league that’s been going for almost 30 years with many of the current members being there from the start. Great camaraderie and friendships!!! It CAN happen in redraft leagues too. The dynasty league I’m in (ironically, it’s the one started up on the LambeauLeap site years ago) just doesn’t have the same camaraderie to me, mostly because everyone in the league is basically just an anonymous name on the internet, we never really just talk about anything, rule changes/improvements are only made with some ridiculous tooth-pulling, and sometimes it’s just not fun. But I still enjoy the building of my franchise and retooling when necessary. Fantasy football is just awesome, though.

    Based on the book? I read that in grade school!
  9. pitchleague
    Yup, but I still find it amusing that they took the maximum number of games to get that streak snapped.
  10. pitchleague
    He did but decided he missed it and wanted one more playoff run. I guess he will be done done after the post-season.
  11. pitchleague
    That is your opinion, of course, but to me, it's not close to a true statement. Brian has gone nuts plenty of times for Brewers home runs. These dingers by the Yankees are just that much more astounding due to playoffs, 8th inning, come-from-behind, against an absolute beast of a dominant closer. I can think of several Ryan Braun bombs that BA sounded like he was ready to jump out of the press box to join the team on the field. Regardless, if you feel that this was more nuts than normal . . . well, you might be right, but don't say that he was never nuts for the Brewers.
  12. pitchleague
    Keep in mind that Costas is a Yankee fan but trying to keep it as neutral as he can. Which he didn't do very well on that triple compared to the Stanton HR, for example.

    I seriously believe that in the next decade or so MLB will copy the NBA and have a mid-season tournament just for kicks. It would be best-of-one all the way til the end. And it would be a cash cow. Especially if they play the whole tournament over one week, in various locations like the WBC. Heck, they could rotate the “title game” so every MLB city gets to host it once every 30 years. Okay, maybe this wouldn’t happen. But I wouldn’t be shocked at all. What does this have to do with this thread? Well, maybe this would be our best chance to “win it all.” LOL
  14. pitchleague
    Huh, I literally though that I was that guy. It happened at least five times in my younger/collegiate years.
  15. pitchleague
    Not necessarily. Last season, I still had not received my refund “automatically” until I called my ticket rep. In January.
  16. pitchleague
    Well, I figure I had better made a final comment. im glad that the Crew came back to win. I really am. This whole post season is, to me, gravy and I really need to just enjoy the ride. have fun watching tomorrow, everyone. I’ll be taxiing to the runway about first pitch time tomorrow. I hope the pilot will give me updates since Allegiant doesn’t have WiFi.
  17. pitchleague
    *sigh* I got nothin’ (I’m so out of this game.)
  18. pitchleague
    Shocker: MLB app has Mets radio audio but Brewers radio audio is dead air. living out of market sometimes sucks oh, and yay double play to limit the damage. Still already has an 8-1 Brewer loss “feel” to this game
  19. pitchleague
    I was so optimistic yesterday but still tempered my expectations and excitement. Today, I am extremely pessimistic and have been dreading even watching the game. All these years of watching have, sadly, conditioned me. [insert sad face here]

    Skubal’s dad is the principal at my school. We’ve had plenty of interesting conversations about baseball and players from Tarik has told him. Tarik is a pretty nice guy, too.
  21. pitchleague
    The Brewers had better sweep the series. If there is a game three, they'll be throwing the first pitch just about the time our flight to Appleton takes off from Vegas. And I'm pretty sure Allegiant doesn't offer in-flight wi-fi.
  22. pitchleague
    I might have my set (421, row 2) available for game one. Gotta find out if my in-laws are gonna use 'em.
  23. pitchleague
    Heh, he makes a couple of appearances in season two, I believe. That was a really good show!
  24. pitchleague
    Kinda sad we didn’t go to the last two games, but both of them woulda frustrated me in the stands so I’m glad I saved my money and watched on tv. hoping for the sweep today, but it’s hard to do.
  25. pitchleague
    Unfortunately, I have to hope for one of two things: a) That they release the movie onto a streaming service (besides Bally's) b) That it's still playing somewhere in the Fox Cities area when I'm visiting Wisconsin in the first week of October.
