You’re a monster.

Kittiot on the field.

I’m going to go with no. When the baseball team started calling themselves The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, everyone in both LA and OC thought it was a joke. Honda Center and Staples are about 35 miles apart, whereas MetLife Stadium is only 7 miles from midtown Manhattan. Then again, Bay Area folks cheer for the San

If Malcolm Knox would like to emigrate to America, he has a bright future covering either MLB or the N(o) F(un) L(eague). I hope he’s practicing his hot takes on bat flips and playing the right way.

Through the first four games of 2017, Puig has five hits and four walks in 16 plate appearances—and three of those hits were big ol’ dongs. 

Yes.

The final round didn’t have to be in Los Angeles, but the WBC has historically been held in Southern California in all four iterations. SF, LA, and SD have all hosted finals, presumably because that particular stretch of America is home to the greatest population of Latin American and East Asian baseball fans, the two

What about the next day when Troy Percival, pitching with a 2-run lead, tried to challenge Bonds high and inside and Bonds parked a no-doubter that promoted Tim Salmon to mouth on camera, “That is the hardest hit ball I’ve ever fucking seen.”

What about these? Maybe these weren’t dongs. All I know is baseball is only fun when Giancarlo is murdering baseballs.

Since I don’t have a PS4, MLB 2K12 is the only video game baseball I’ve played for the past 6 years and I never field a team without rookie Manny Machado on it.

Howe was like Ruth. Sure, he had a handful of peers, but he was just playing a different game than most of his contemporaries.

I still think Lemieux’s 88-89 campaign when he went 85/114/199 is the greatest single season in NHL history. True, Gretzky reached 200 points four times, but by the end of the 80s, the NHL scoring average had just started its decline but Lemieux never noticed. How he finished 2nd in the Hart Trophy voting that season

He’s like Bizarro Monfils. All the devil may care, none of the unbridled joy.

I say this at least once a day.

Also, concerts and movie theaters and sports venues charge so much!!! How do they get away with this shit??? Oh yeah, because you’re trapped.

In this 2012 Game Informer interview, Miyamoto shoots down the Mario Mario thing so I imagine this “Link Link” joke is really just poking fun at the idea that the Mario Mario theory is still around. Either that or he just lies all the time.

Are you sure you’re remembering that right? In a 2012 Game Informer interview, Miyamoto said the opposite, that it is only the movies that put forth that idea and in fact Mario and Luigi have no last names.

Oh come on, it wasn’t boring.

But...it’s a disease. And it was used incorrectly. That sentence doesn’t make any sense. Are you just applauding that the word was used at all?

Last night I called my little brother for his birthday. He lives in a different state than I do, so we don’t talk as often as we’d like. When last we spoke, the Vikings were 5-0 and the Indians (our favorite baseball team) had just steamrolled the Boston Red Sox. Last night’s conversation was...different. At least I
