  1. LMAO....what a long inning. I don't remember ever seeing a run walked in, fielder's choice, and wild pitch all in the same half inning
  2. Don't really like Barney climbing the fence and falling down, when the ball is over by 25 feet.
  3. and a one-sided ladies fight to end a dull card.
  4. why not, this whole card is a gimmick now anyways....might as well have a ladder match.
  5. Card is a disaster. They should just make the main event a 3-way.
  6. Oh oh, Dickie will be giving Saunders the business between innings.
  7. I think the Jays fans are extra bad for this too. I think many are new fans from the last year or so, when the team started being good. Lots of fans that rarely see a live game. The key is to look at the outfielder. It's like when their is bad turbulence on a plane, people are freaking out, but the stewardess is pouring a coffee looking bored.
  8. Math doesn't really work like that. Hansen will offset some of that not playing with the Sedins.
  9. After that long a delay, Happ is the one you want tonight. What a storm
  10. and the more ironic part is, there are a few times a year where a player is trying to injury the SS/2B for whatever reason. One sided game.....player hit by pitch...team histories......whatever. This rule won't deter that. Player knows he will be kicked out of the game....he isn't concerned about an out.
  11. This new rule will lead to more injuries. The whole rule comes from a play where it was an obvious intentional dirty slide. Now the SS and 2B know they don't even have to try to avoid a slide, in fact they will try to get hit. This will lead to more injuries than before. It's a rule to fix a nonexistent problem.
  12. What a game tonight. I have never seen a player throw the ball over the fence like that. But I guess the score saves his ass. The Philly pitchers were looking dejected all night.
  13. Anyone find any place to bet on the Lesnar fight? Hunt is easy money in this one. Lesnar can't take a punch. RIP Kimbo......crazy life.
  14. It's not even that he has to get into super shape by August. Any improvement would be a good sign. I am more worried he comes to camp in worse shape
  15. We all remember Big Country and his love of food. Was it second or third year camp, he came 30 pounds heavy.
  16. Agreed. But at least we find out right away in training camp. If he doesn't get into shape for this preseason, it will be a problem his whole career. Other than that, appears so far he can play at the NHL level. But 82 games will be tough.
  17. This Texas reliever Barnette pitches like he is Japanese.
  18. The retirement appears real. He is definitely out for UFC 200. LMAO....Nate Diaz gets to headline against some random guy now, in a non title fight. I am guessing 200 won't be the biggest UFC ever. Only chance to save this card is to bring GSP to fight him. Otherwise 200 goes from the biggest card in UFC history, to a fight night card.
  19. What if he has some old hag English teacher. "No you can't miss any more class Thatcher, you already missed a lot with that hockey stuff and that tournament last week"
  20. What teams would really have him as their NHL starter or even backup next year? The Canucks are a pretty good team if he wants to play at the NHL level sooner rather than later. Miller's contract is almost up, then he will be gone. Markstrom has played 40 games for us over the last 3 years. It's possible Demko could play for the big team 2017/2018. If he doesn't want to play here, it is not because he feels he won't have a good opportunity to play in the NHL. There are so many teams with superstar goalies with years to go on contracts. Their backup knows he won't get to start for years or get traded. Their AHL goalies just hope to start a couple NHL games in their lives.
  21. You can tell skydome is full of first timers. They go wild anytime a Jay hits a fly ball.
  22. even if it did change the direction of the throw, he was going to be late getting it to first. I thought the replay might send Donaldson back to third.
  23. Because he has performed BETTER this year, than what was expected, by a good deal too. He improved......If every GM had a crystal ball showing him with 24 goals in 33 games, he would be gone long before 23.
