Fuck the Rangers forever for this. I used to be ambivalent about them, but they can fuck right off.

They play it at MMP during home games after Take Me Out To The Ballgame so I imagine they were trying to help the Astros feel more at home.

But, you know, go ahead and act like an asshole over this.

Go directly to hell, you absolute nightmare of a person.

I am not from Texas. I am just from a place where I learned math, including concepts like “13 games is not a good sample size.” Playing at your opponent’s stadium is a disadvantage.

Also, at least in baseball, for regular season baseball, the home field advantage has as much to do with sleeping in your own bed, and not catching a 2 am flight as it does to any crowd benefit. It is utterly silly to claim playing in Tropicana is somehow better than playing in Arlington.

Studies show that home field advantage is real across all sports (so not just in baseball where the order of who gets to hit is a built-in advantage). Astros would be a competitive disadvantage if they had to play this series at Texas. Better to play at a neutral site than road site.

It kinda makes me wonder how they could afford to send a team.

“We’re all Latino, we’re brothers,” Dominican Republic manager Jose Cordero said of Venezuela’s sportsmanship.

Back in my day, players didn’t need coddling. Hell, that little league pitcher Danny Almonte wouldn’t even drive his children on the team for ice cream after losses.

I’m sure he does. It just makes his opening paragraph an obvious cheap way to knock a historically-sub-par program. I get the reason he did it and the point he was trying to make but it’s hard to justify that if you go back on the joke almost immediately.

Just an FYI, if you can name Jeff George then Butkus isn’t the only Illini player you can name.

Racism? At an Indians game?

Pacino: Say hello to my little friend.

When you become outraged at everything, you are outraged at nothing.

We’re all watching a predator at work.

Savage recently co-authored a book with writer Ray Glier that focuses on his past eight years working as a radio commentator for Alabama.

Based 100% on seeing their faces in motion on the TV at the gym with no sound, plus one of their subway ads, I feel like I’d like Golic better.

And Beverly has been playing great since that pick. Your point?
