It was a gag from the show that was a meta joke (shocking, I know) to the prospects of their own show being cancelled. It was supposed to be delusional and not at all realistic. The fact that it even got close was more due to a very passionate fan base and Yahoo being kind of stupid and trying to start their own TV…

I could probably still pitch for the Mets right now if I wanted

counterpoint: fuck Mizzou

They win the title last year if EDD has two healthy legs in the playoffs

Lots of laughs in comments of an article where someone accuses an ex, and father of their child, of threatening to have them murdered and that they choked them before in disputes. Choking is one of the biggest risk factors in domestic violence for future homicide of domestic partners.

Can’t wait for the episode when Gronk thinks Luck gets turned into a dog, named Lucky, and at end of episode Gronk and Lucky, now a fully certified K-9 unit, scare away a horse that was trapping a man in the bathroom.

see my other comment on acceptable hating of Royals, that fits and is acceptable if you were cheering against the late 70s/early 80s Royals.

Look, I’m a Royals fan since birth. My first clear memory is Bo Jackson snapping a bat over his thigh when I was at a game. It was so awesome it snapped me into full consciousness.
