i'm sure some people born in Pgh suburbs say they're from pgh I've heard Steigy say that Sam Lafferty was from outside of Pittsburgh. Google Maps shows Hollidaysburg as being 1h 59m from the arena, or only 15 minutes closer than what Cleveland is to Pittsburgh. I'm in hollidaysburg and on vacation ...

Haha. Lauer not Bauer

They've got 5 days for Bauer to decide if he's gonna stay. I hope they manage that asset well even if it's kinda small apples

You have to suspend disbelief to be a pirates fan. It's not important enough to my life to get angry about the owner. So i put my head in the sand and just play by his rules with my expectations. Everyone joked about them saying Skenes just needs to check some boxes. We all knew it was about super 2...

It's not even just being a pessimistic pirates fan. It's an MLB thing. Skenes isn't like a franchise qb coming in. 9 of the 10 hardest throwing starters are down with injury this year. And there's no chance of extending the guy. And bringing him up now rather than a few starts from now means he's go...

It's really something. It was years of waiting and anticipating a Cole Taillon Glasnow rotation. Watching that get bungled three different ways is probably what led me to skipping a year of watching the team. And now out of nowhere to have Skenes Jones and Keller is something to behold.

is this guy funny or something?

Writing off a new Greg Daniels show because it's a mockumentary is like writing off a new Dick Wolf show because it's about cops.

But...I do this.

yeah i thought the same thing lol

nothing wrong with brown rice. it's just like delicious white rice mixed with soggy gas station bathroom paper shredded in

I'm kinda stunned how good he's been in AAA so I'm glad for that. Not because I doubted his arm but because it's the pirates and I expected the process to be more grueling. So I'm with ulf - just apprehensive. I don't have any concern about him getting a win. Just want 4 good innings or whatever so ...

Ortiz is not built to be a fireman. Stratton should come in then and let Ortiz go 2 with clean bases

Bright spots: Jones Skenes Everyone else is either underperforming or performing well in a league below where you want them (AAA etc). Lamb Bae Peggy and Nick are pushing but we've seen them fail before. Priester could become a bright spot. Perez and Falter are doing the best I could have hoped for....

man. rock bottom. Davis hurts. but mostly because he reflects the trend of the system. take decent hitters and break them. why can't this guy hit fastballs down the middle anymore? Cutch couldn't hit fastballs to start the year. then he caught up to them but i think his age caught up to him. he's hi...

I'd get Thurman Thomas 100+ receptions every season in tecmo super bowl

If you listen to this song a bunch of times it will be stuck in your head and you'll keep wanting to listen to it. I guess the one guy is "the greatest Irish tenor of all time" according to comments. That's believable

I think her dissertation sounds awesome lol

I love it

Monk Gary Clark and Ricky Sanders were fun though. They always stuck in my head. Then and the Denver 3 amigos

Legit have never heard of Darrell Green. Really? If nothing else, he was a beast in Tecmo Super Bowl... I started really watching NFL football in '93 or so. It just seems like some guys don't have a lasting, broad legacy outside of their fan bases. Do people outside of Pittsburgh and maybe St. Loui...

Falter 7ip 3h 1er 2bb 8k

Cutch second straight game leadoff hr

Bednar settling down

Suwinski hitting the ball well. Cruz calming down.

Go Joe

It's striking how much better he is than Cole

12.2 5 0 4 27

an above .500 team? a team with outstanding starting pitching but a bad bullpen? jk i know what you mean. the offense and defense is about what we feared. i think they'll be a better team later in the year though so it was nice to get a jump on the league

I really liked Zone of Interest. Kinda one note but i think it was executed excellently and i thought it looked gorgeous

favorite things of the season so far:

Watching Chapman and Jones. Team pitching. Infield hits. 5-4-3 double plays


worst things to watch this year:

Bednar. The defense. Cutch.
