Counterpoint: fat ball players are a feature, not a bug

Holy hell. Look at this guy’s career stats. He NEVER walks or strikes out. 638 games in the minors, 2,461 plate appearances, 85 walks, 81 strikeouts (and 40 stolen bases). And in his 45 plate appearances for the Twins thus far, 0 walks, 2 strikeouts.

it’s the point right after he passes third and heads for home and his crazy eyes appear, that as the catcher I would just start walking towards the pitcher mound. Even if you caught the ball and tried a swiping tag with your glove, his wake would easily knock the ball out of your glove.

That isn’t just a catcher. That is a C/2B/3B/LF/CF/P who has more home runs than he has strikeouts and walks combined. Willians Astudillo is and has always been your favourite player even if you’ve never heard of him before now. 

This is why I love baseball. That is fucking amazing footage.

My God, I haven’t seen a man move like that since Prince Fielder heard there was pizza to celebrate clinching the division. Absolute Unit. 

That being said Crown Vics are awesome. 

Minneapolis resident here. No don’t move here, we definitely don’t have the most amazing lakes, perfect summers, and nicest/most beautiful people in the world. Definitely not. Not even a bit.

Most likely a targeted attack on immigrants and poor families that do, in fact, live in single-family homes with other families.

That was beautiful.

With the granny gear, it would just very slowly and methodically end up pushing a long column of Mustangs across the lot, grocery store cart clerk style, and deposit them in a big mangled heap - in the process saving lots of lives and proving that just because they’re no longer on active duty, real heroes never really…

He should ditch the Army Green and paint it a happy color. Instead of attracting military enthusiasts he’d get hipsters who’ll pay more money.

In my dreams I drive to work every day in a Mazda Luce, the Japanese-spec 929 four-door hardtop. Mine would be equipped with the optional 13B rotary engine, of course. Nothing else will do!

the tennest ten.

Wooooooaaaaahhh.

It’s about cat badges on cars. Isn’t that enough? For now?

3 bottle openers with belt clips?

Okay, confession time: I owned a 2005 Ford Five Hundred Limited for 11 years. Was it the most exciting car I’ve ever driven? No, that honor would go to an Offy Midget or maybe the Lotus Elan 2+2 that caught fire.

Don’t forget the tap water museum!

But they did offer it with AWD which was something special for that era.
