You're right. Just came on. Guess they just never updated the guide.

And please never compare me to great big asstroll. 😎

 

[joeywa]

You're all good Bear.  It wasn't a comparison at all. 

 

[streettopeschel]

It's on both right now. We ARE the Joneses.

this is how you're supposed to play baseball.  a little luck plus some good strategy.

augie getting schooled right now.

DBU getting ready to serve up the post two Q to the horns.   

4 zip.   sheesh.  gonna have to be an epic comeback.

 

[armadillo slim]

Mayes & Duke are up in the pen.

good exercise for them but that's all it is. exercise.    it's too f'cking late for this game.

not sure it was all culbreath's doing.  that first hit was a fluke double into the mud, but the second (a little lucky) and third were the result of a coach not succumbing to a "book" small ball strategy and the result was a big ol' crooked run inning.

that's how its done, augie.

screw bunt'em up, bunt'em over.  time to swing away.

oh, and not take perfect called third strikes.  geezus.

sorry for the negativity, but unfortunately that's all i can see right now.
