As a White Sox fan who just happened to be in a sports bar full of Cubs fans last night when this happened, it was a bit cathartic.

Ya know, after spending way too much time on this,
I said ‘Fuck it-no one will look at it anyway.’

I was going to post this separately, but I suppose if I am going to make myself miserable than I might as well have company.

This is the most hyperbolic “record” going. Just 2 years ago, Rhys Hoskins “set records” for being the fastest to 9 HR through 17 HR in terms of games played. So, good on ya, Aristides. Dude looks like a beast who can rake but can’t we just enjoy a guy mashing taters without having to give it artificial context?

Clay Bellinger has more World Series rings than Vlad Sr., Fernando Tatis Sr., Craig Biggio, and Dante Bichette combined!

Well, you know how the White Sox treat clubhouse leaders so maybe- MAYBE- they didn’t get the better end of this one.

I know it’s good fun to rag on Manchester United, but I think they have a legitimate shot at avoiding relegation this season. 

Right, Leicester is perfectly willing to play chicken with the big clubs over their guys. I kind of respect it.

He’s with us, Leather.

Oh sure it looks bad, but that's only because you put exactly what they said into print with the appropriate amount of context around it to get across exactly what they were trying to say!

“Hi, I’d like to report a murder.

In all fairness to Stroman, a trade to the Mets does feel like a punishment.

There’s four words in this review that still inspires me to watch this show: Karl, Urban, Elizabeth, and Shue.

Was there really  that much debate over whether Archer was projecting his inner psyche? Danger Island was when all of the characters were most  out of character and when Archer was likely most close to death. Both Dreamland and Danger Island were continuous stories where Archer never slept implying that sleep in his…

They can find his dad?

If this had happen during the Montreal portion of the Rays season, it would have been even more confusing because it would have all been in metric.
