Of course it is...

if you're gonna baby jones and skenes do it in the MLB and have them throw the same day, 4 innings apiece. Genius! And we're through 8 innings here are PNC Park. Skenes and Jones have been lights out in one of the more dominant shared starts in MLB history. They combined to give up 1 hit and no fre...

@genoscoif Oh they know they’re supposed to fight me. Maybe they’re hyped at first. That’s why you have to do the brutal display right off the bat. This isn’t some Roblox game come to life, this isn’t play wrestling with your dad. They need to learn that quick, and as I said they’re soft and their ...

That's a profound lack of understanding of fighting children haha Get out of here with that. I’ve been around enough kids and am raising two. Kindergartners are soft. there could be a critical mass that if they all were around you at the same time, youd have no chance. i think that number is 50 sim...

I'm still trying to figure out why Shelton pulled Jones yesterday. Did he mention anything in the postgame? I mean, even if pitch count is a thing, 59 is hardly taxed...and he was cruising. Not any hard innings, heat not a factor, cold not a factor. 5 near perfect innings and you're in a 1 run game....

Cruz looks like he's guessing the pitches, and guessing wrong a lot. He's not really identifying anything, or even looking like he is trying...which is the most concerning IMO. He's got immense talent and potential but if you're going to swing at everything like its a 4-seam fastball you aren't goin...

We have a puppy so we are extremely leery about putting those traps out, and I think for carpenters you need to use the liquid traps. Honestly, if they're in the wall, I want to hire someone to take care of it. There's likely already damage that we'll have to deal with. Home ownership + adulting suc...

We used Terminix in Allison Park. Easy to work with, they'd come and go without bothering me. We were working to get carpenter ants out of a retaining wall. Thank you...I think we might have carpenter ants......that just showed up in our kitchen. We've seen them here and there over the years, but n...

Anyone have a recommendation for a pest control service that services the North Hills that they've used/liked?

Respectable split vs the Phils and took a series against the oriels. Cocaine Mitch got 7 innings. I’ll most definitely take it. Why do you call him that? I get that MM from KY was called that. He deserves better. Especially considering he's one of the more calm and soft spoken players on the entire...

Gotta wonder if they did rehearsals in less-than-complete wardrobe or makeup, cos the instant Gardner saw them it was lost. haha :lol: 100% this. You can see Gosling and Day laughing at her reaction almost like a 'i know, right?' at how awesome they look. I also love the fact that Gosling just seem...

That's probably true...Magic Mike XXL with Joe Manganiello didn't release until Jul 1st in 2015.

You took your dog to the upside down to tinkle.

That is a perfect comparison.
Although because I was standing in what amounted to a puddle of a front yard, there's no way i could've thrashed Master of Puppets without getting electrocuted.

You know, for a professional curmudgeon.... Very sorry, dodint. :cry: I am always so grateful that there are people that have the strength to take in elderly adoptees like you and yours. We considered it and both agreed that we just couldn't handle it. You gave and continue to give her everything sh...

Had to take the puppy out at about 4:30am. I was like something out of an apocalypse movie. Wind was blowing hard with a kind of misty rain, everything was dark and quiet, except for the neighbors freaking creepy windchimes. Standing in mud and muck. Lucy was on extreme high alert scanning everythin...

Loved the first one. Don't mind musicals. Not completely sold on this one, but at least willing to wait and see. I guess I can kinda see how they could make it work, but if it ends up being the equivalent of 15 dream sequences with a story woven around it I think that might be lame. I dunno.

Grr. That was frustrating. Gem from your SP just gets nuked.

Let's not forget that Bednar was hurt in the spring, so not sure why they keep running him out there. It's pretty obvious that somethin' ain't right.

Chapman has been exactly what everyone hoped we were getting when he signed, but weren't really sure still existed. He didn't just close the door yesterday, he broke the glass insert after slamming it in DET face. If he continues to be lights out, it might be interesting to see how him and Bednar ar...

Yeah, I love me some Dawn Staley. Iowa needed CC to go superhuman for the entire game to have a shot, and she went cold for a few stretches that just killed them. SC never seemed all that threatened once they took over in the second half.

Great team. Even better coach.

I think it can be a combination of both, OP. Analytics drives pitchers toward higher spin rates and higher velocity. But there's a reason for that...high velocity with high spin rate is really, really hard to hit. So I think it's more pitchers are willing to push their arms to the limit to achieve b...

I like this team.

Ump really effed Bart on that 2-0

Is the bloom off Bednars rose?

No, but Chapman is a generational closer who seemed to still have it. Without looking, Bednar seems to make 1 run saves interesting...a lot.

Bednar is a turd. Give the 9th to Chapman.

I read that he wasn't happy with the pitch count limit and went and threw 40 more pitches in the bullpen https://media.tenor.com/6AP9vvlkLnAAAAAM/my-man-my-man-hd.gif I get the innings count to a degree, but it's not like he's a 19 yr old prospect. He threw 122 innings for LSU 2 years ago with 2 co...
