I know people don't really care about WAR for pitchers (or they didn't? maybe it's changed since then), but here is the Rockies' very sad career list. Jason Jennings is actually at 6. Look at how much Jon Gray is moving up! Crazy to think that with just two more seasons averaging 3.5 he'd already be at the top of that list (assuming he finishes this year at least at 11.2).

I see Gray also leads starters in FIP and xFIP

I thought this was going to be about buying tickets for the Golden State Warriors lol

Jorge de la Rosa is unironically a Rockies great though... sadly.

I hope Jon Gray or Kyle Freeland (maybe even German Marquez?) turn out so we can stop having people laugh when we say our best pitcher in history is... Aaron Cook? Ubaldo? Jorge? Staff "ace" of the magical 2007 team, Jeff Francis?

I looked at the box score for that game.

1. Wow, Cole Hamels has been really good for the Cubs.
2. When the hell did Jorge de Rosa end up on the Cubs?

Yeah after posting I read up on it more. I had seen the movie a long time ago but I forgot that he was eating 5,000 calories a day, that part is pretty bullshit... unless you're training like a pro athlete of course that will make you fat.

I think the alcohol thing probably wasn't meant to be taken literally though. I mean yeah that probably is a big factor in the liver damage but I could believe he didn't have alcohol during the 30 days.

I do think it was a huge influence in changing fast food menu options but I'd also say something else probably would have come along to do the same.

Uh is it possible the girl looked at you "like some kind of sexual predator" because you kept looking at her? I mean, how would you know what kind of looks she was giving you unless you were giving looks too? Regardless it's not really the type of thing you should worry yourself over so much, nor when people make fun of the situation.

What sane person would even think something like this?

It's a joke, dude. I was making fun of all the "OMG a girl said something nice to me what do I do"-type topics that appear here.

the "documentary" super size me has been debunked like 9 times now

What was "debunked" about it? Obviously it isn't a real good representation of how anybody actually lives, but it was all real, right? Or am I mistaken?

Not that I'm saying even six months of eating McDonald's would be nearly as bad as just his one month. You could just get the healthier stuff off the menu and actually exercise.

For me I think it's less that I started out with Coors (actually Keystone, but that's also a Coors product) and more that I used to be near the Coors brewery

Its a good session beer when youre at a place that doesnt have anything craft. I prefer Lime but regular is alright too.

Isn't that Bud Light? I've never heard of a Coors Light Lime

I drank a lot of it in college

Hes posted some stuff in the past about how it fills him with rage if women look at him in public because he thinks they are judging him so he will just glare at them angrily until they get uncomfortable and leave

That's crazy everyone knows that if a woman so much as makes an accidental passing glance it means she wants you

I'm sure we have a state fair but I don't know where or when it is and I probably wouldn't like it

Man I'm a half foot taller than him but I weigh 15 lbs less than that. How do I muscle

Microsoft is a pretty easy choice for me. Though I've never owned any Sony consoles, and have owned both an OG Xbox and 360, they're basically just third-party machines. I can replace that with PlayStations plus there are exclusives I can see myself interested in. The only MS exclusive I ever cared about was Halo but that's past its prime at this point.

I think we had our NES since before I could even remember. When I was really young I also remember an even older console, something like an Atari or ColecoVision. Then apparently one day my parents sold it or got rid of it and I don't even know when or get any say in it.

It's too bad you didn't hold on to those. Nowadays the consoles are cheap and easily replaceable. The games themselves cost more than the actual console like half the time

Today's poll is a pretty good one. I'm like 99% certain I was playing stuff by age 5 but I don't know about before then. How would anyone even know if they played before age 3? I could ask my parents but I doubt they'd know the exact age.

I'm not even sure if it really counts as "playing" at that age anyway, more like just randomly pressing buttons with no idea what the hell is going on

Really? He's a bit strange but I don't see him as violent

He'd probably speak the verbal equivalent of five unbroken paragraphs to me just to ask how he should decide what to eat for lunch

Either that or I'd imagine almost total silence

That's funny that it was also a doubleheader involving the Mets but please get a new username

The Phillies gave up 11 unearned runs today. I feel like that's gotta be close to a record

Wow so Jen thinks a guy who does bodybuilding competitions could beat a guy who's unloaded a shipping dock

Can we just have Trout break it so that everyone is happy and there is an indisputable GOAT

jen wins cause shes a real person

Careful saying stuff like this, Sunny might actually believe it. He'll probably say that he's actually an elevated spiritual being who had to occupy mortal reality because the world couldn't otherwise handle his power

Yeah what if the person doesn't actually know you're coming

That'll be quite a surprise

Do you think Miguel Cabrera will get to 500 home runs? He's 35 away as of now but obviously his best days are behind him and who knows how he'll come back from his injury. I remember when he seemed like a lock for 500 and a decent possibility for 600, but now I'm not sure he'll even get to 500.

He's signed til 2023 amazingly but I doubt he'll last that long. The Yankees even managed to force A-Rod into retiring just 4 homers away from 700.

I don't like Sunny but I'm pretty sure he'd win. Not to be sexist or anything but just being a guy gives him a huge advantage.

I'll vote for Jen in the actual poll though because lolz

Don't you guys know that Sunny is jacked from his "workout" of moving boxes of fries?

Did you post about how you saw Mike Matheny in a grocery store

There's a gift baskets joke here but that feels too easy

They are totally a loser organization, but that comment only made me remember they have two World Series. I die a little bit inside every time I'm hit with that realization

Above all else it really annoys me that some videos will be there for months on end. Like even if the content itself wasn't shitty, that's objectively poor algorithm design for something that's supposed to be "trending". Maybe that's also a problem with "trending" videos creating a sort of self-fulfilling prophecy that feeds back into more views and thus making it trend.

I've applied to almost 900 and still no offers

Even if you look at it incognito with nothing watched the recommendations are crap. It's always:

- Someone in India or wherever making a "pool" that's basically just a dirt hole with water
- Clickbait "science" videos that are several months old at this point
- Late-night TV shows
- Top Vines to ____ (show grandma, cure cancer, etc.)
- Family Guy

Obviously Kurt. Based on Delta's descriptions of his lifestyle I'm not sure he's exercised a single time in his adult life, I'd pick almost anyone here to beat him in a fight

Pssh. If you don't like games then YOU are the loser. Most of the people around here played at least a little.

Then as I usually say, what the hell do I care what people think? Oh I can't play games but you think it's appropriate to drink, party, and date? Get the hell outta here.

Are you a joke account

Video games were for "losers" until about 2007, when it suddenly became profitable.

Video games were profitable well before 2007, they started having sustained success like 20 years prior to that

The Dodgers have lost five in a row. Nice job Giants!

That seems bad but IIRC around this time last year they were losing 17 of 18 or something ridiculous. Of course they also did that with like a 10 game lead because they were basically this year's Red Sox up until that point

Zeus posted...

Yes. And kinda. One thing I hate is when you have the option of completing the game but it's treated as a separate mission you can't return from, instead of just allowing at least some changes into the game.

Uh, what do you mean by this? Not sure I follow. Are you talking about games where you get to a certain point late in the game and you're no longer able to go back and explore the rest of the game, or games where you beat it but if you reload your save afterwards it treats it like you haven't beaten it yet?

Not necessarily plot points, but basically anything that you thought might have a possibility of happening by the time you beat the game, but it kind of never came up. I mean, within reason of course, and not stuff where the developer was clearly keeping it vague on purpose.

For example: In Ocarina of Time I was always disappointed that Zora's Domain doesn't ever unfreeze when you're adult Link. And in Majora's Mask I was hoping we'd see what Kafei is supposed to look like normally, but that didn't happen.

I probably have more but can't think of them right now

I hope this year will finally be the year we get a crazy three-way tie for the wild card spot or something

But, uh, not if the Rockies are involved, they can win the division please

The Mariners got James Paxton back and he got hit by a line drive in the first inning. Being a Mariners fan must really suck

Is SBAllen making you a super mod

I think it's generally considered acceptable to play video games nowadays but if you list it as a main hobby and especially if you call yourself a "gamer" people are going to judge you.

I thought all your fake stories involved a woman getting drunk and stripping naked and then cops showing up. Well, I guess this has the cops part.

No I don't really feel like playing therapist

Man, there must be a lot of teams in MLB that hate the AL Central. You could take up to the third place team in every other division (and fourth place for some of them) and they'd be leading that division. At least the Indians are good though and it's not like they're going to take the division with 80 wins or something

I really don't see the Mariners being able to keep the Yankees or Astros out of the playoffs. I think recent Mariners are a more accurate representation of who they really are than early-season Mariners. But it's possible they can have more ups; the Rockies seem to be able to keep rebounding, even though they aren't that good.

I didn't vote in the primaries cause there were barely even any contested races and I don't know anything about them and chances are I'll just be voting for whoever wins the primary anyway

Are you meeting a celebrity or something

Or seeing some kind of live performance

I don't know if the Cardinals got any good prospects in their trades but I assume it's nice to see them sell at the deadline two straight years while managing to stay in the playoff hunt
