    Do you think he will always be able to get by on piss and vinegar? Going for 2nd in this situation is NEVER +ev if he gets thrown out one time in his career. There is simply no benefit. Trust me, I get what you are saying about him being a stud, but think how special he could be if he was also smart? The attempt at the throw from the warning track to get the tagging runner in his first game or two is a prime example. Even with an otherworldly throw he wasn't getting the guy. That throw needs to go to 2nd to hold the runner at first instead.
    Holy fuck. Am I really going to agree with koko the retarded monkey? This is the first post of his that's ever made sense to me so I will agree with it.

    You might be on to something. Post something that's not idiotic & other's might actually listen to you.

    There may be hope for you yet.

    Actually the best bet in all of sports, happens to be in baseball. Out of the major sports in America, only one doesn't have a time limit. The over in baseball is the best bet in sports. Yes their are innings and you can call that the time limit, but still the game is played till someone wins.
    Thanks amigo, I was looking for a basic tip/clue on how to proceed. With your experience in the bigs and the grassroots of Meh he co, I will fuck their world with awesome bets.

    For the people who have netflix theres a REALLY long doc about the entire history of baseball. I mean it's EPIC long, I'm talking about the kind of shit that might take you 3-6 months to view.

    Went through some of my baseball stuff this morning and found some older gems. Found a couple old Dodger and Giant programs from the 30's and 40's. And also this older Yankees minor league program, that I thought was pretty cool.

    I guess for 3 years the Yankees had a minor league team in Columbus Georgia actually called, The Columbus "Confederate" Yankees. Note the rebel flag on the cover. I got a shitload of stuff here that I probably should go through.

    Templar, I loved "when it was a game", some beautiful footage of the old stadiums and players and great stories from those guys, awesome link cheers dude.

    I'm now watching the Mets/Phillies game, is this an old rivalry? Much back history?

    Not much history as in terms of rivalries between the two teams prior to 2005/2006. The two teams seldomly have been good at the same time previously to the years I posted above. Since then they have been battling for playoff contention, and division titles. With the Phillies of course leading the battle, and it's not even close

    Just had the pleasure of watching Josh hamilton do his best Superman impression with 4 homers tonight, 3 to deep center.

    This Texas offense is fucking ridiculous.

    You ain't kidding bro. And to think, they wrote off Hamilton years ago.
