That’s nothing. There was a restaurant where I used to live (rich yuppie town. They served a mousse in a mini plant pot with a “tree” of sage rising out of it. Actually pretty good) where a waiter would accost you with “hey, haven’t I seen you here before?” when you walked in.

The Mets have handled injuries better this year than they have in a long time. Michael Conforto got a concussion and they didn’t immediately shove him on a plane. Most of the time, they’ve ILed guys quickly (Jeff McNeil, Robinson Cano the first time) for smaller injuries rather than going shorthanded for a week and…

I still very much liked ME2, but you’re right that it’s a different and more on-rails experience that takes away much of what made ME1 click for me.

I came here to point out ME:Andromeda. I didn’t get very far in it. I just got bored. Unlike previous games in the series, I didn’t want to talk to any characters or interact with anything. I quit when I realized I couldn’t stop pulling my phone out while playing.

As long as we’re whining about sluggers not getting attention, how about Pete Alonso? Numbers are a little behind Bell’s, but he’s got 12 homers, many of which similarly impressive shots. Nothing 470+, but 445 on a line drive to right center is pretty great. And he’s a rookie.

I regret all the times I almost added Aubrey Huff to my fantasy team and then went with someone else.

It’s encouraging that Boston’s intolerance is at least directed at a white guy for once.

The idea of a city of 187,000 people being “small town” because it’s in Tennessee is absurd. Of course 187,000 people in a city that isn’t full of skyscrapers will “sprawl.”

Portly Fit is also known these days as Executive Fit. This is the most Trump thing.

Aren’t they not toasted?

I don’t know if a punter is worth taking in the 4th round.

Yup. I’m still not 100% convinced that Rhame was throwing at Hoskins. Because if Rhame were trying to throw at Hoskins, he probably would’ve put it over the plate.

Agreed. I’m skeptical that Rhame could throw at a guy’s head if he tried, but it looks like he succeeded.

Rhame generally has no idea where the ball is going, but it’s hard to believe that he missed at Hoskins’ head twice. I’m with you.

Apparently the Mets Phillies dust-up over the last couple days started because the Phillies were mad that a Mets baserunner went first to third while they were already up 8-0. Then, the Phillies threw at a Met (Michael Conforto), so the Mets threw at a Phillie (Rhys Hoskins). The next day, Hoskins homered off the same…

Siggi’s Vanilla is amazing.

Fried cheese curds, aka cheese balls.

The whole “you can’t argue balls and strikes” thing is absurd. If MLB were to just say “you can’t argue without getting tossed,” that’s one thing. But choosing one part of the game that you can’t argue and then falling back on “you can’t argue it because you can’t argue it” when players and coaches have mostly valid…

That’s amazing.

Baseball needs personalities.
