Put me in coach
I'm ready to play

Also look at chewy forgetting @Ultima_Dragoon

Sorry I made the topic on my crappy phone so it was a pain in the ass to try to cross-reference the lists (and is a pain in the ass to copy-paste)

Hey I signed up for softball this year actually, it starts next week and it's still gonna be 40 out

has anyone here watched The Americans? I watched epi 1 last night and it was very good

I always get nervous when I see that (1) at the top of the site

I see how it is. You even remembered crin but not me!

That's perfect. It's hard to break a sweat when the weather is like that. Although I guess it's hard to break a sweat in softball, period.

I am an assistant coach for my kids' school softball team and first practice was this past week and it was 35 out when we held practice.

It's one of my favorite shows ever and it gets better every year (with the exception of season 5 which Aire last year but so far this final season has been fantastic)

Wow, the Nuggets crushed the Clippers to eliminate them from the playoffs. If I understand tiebreakers correctly, they could move from 9 to 7 by the end of the day with the Pelicans and Thunder facing very losable games tonight.

holy shit the Phillies are up 17-1 against the Marlins in the 4th inning

Gabe Kapler will still find a way to use more pitchers than the Marlins

The Gabe Kapler drama is so good.

I want to post one picture of Gabe Kapler:

...and ask one thing: the Philly Fanatic is his fetish, right?

That is a good pic, but it's not the Kapler pic I would have expected.

I'm watching the Blues big game and saying "wheel, snipe, celly" over and over again

The Avs done got a lead. Maybe I'll actually watch the rest of this

Dirty fuckin dangles boys

I think that was offside, but whatever, not complaining. If it was offside, it was by a couple millimeters for one frame's worth of video. Replay is stupid

At least it only took half our natural lives to get the replay done.

The blues wheeled, they sniped, and then they cellyd. Sadly, the refs have rigged this game for the dreaded Avalanches

Fuck, none of the teams right ahead of the Nuggets are going to lose, despite that they're all playing the top three teams in the West.

I think the Nuggets make the playoffs if they win out anyway, though, since their last game is against Minnesota. But some breathing room would be nice

But at least I have a MacKinnon wheel snipe celly

I'm playing some Mario Kart now. I feel like they give out more Bullet Bills than they used to.

I haven't played Mario Kart in like a year. After I completed all the cups up to 150CC I finally attempted online and I ragequit after one match

It's really hard. The main thing that annoys me is how many people play the same character and kart. I keep seeing Morton Koopa in that Wiggler bike.

The Rockies won on a walk-off walk.

Just over six minutes to go. Avs gotta hold it for two goals. *Anakin voice* This is tense!

Empty net with 4 and a half left

Here we go

What kind of sick fuck would play as a mii in Mario kart

We should shred some mad MK on switch tomorrow

My Avalanches did it. Sorry guys. I guess that's why they call it the Blues.

I've probably done it at least once, but I don't main it or anything

Hell yeah. I also just queued the download for a Kirby demo so that's pretty exciting.

Twins, Blue Jays, Rockies and Giants all have a winning record right now and Cardinals are at .500. This is the peak of the season for this topic.

That's what an early series against the White Sox will do for you.
---

The Cardinals came so close to getting over .500. The dream season for this topic is over.

It looks like the Brewers will be down to .500 after today. They're playing St. Louis next so they will continue to fall.
---

the twins game got snowed out so they will continue to be above .500

The Rangers didn't play Big Sexy this series, so the Jays will be above .500.

On another note, I'm going to make it a project to actually learn to throw correctly. I wonder if this is even possible at my age...

Whom would like to play Mario Kart with me.

I will, give me like 40 min.

Sports Topic Mario Kart festival at 5:00pm central

Ohtani is god.

Perfect through 5, 10 Ks on only 65 pitches, what the hell

Bust, he gave up a hit to a guy whose name is almost Semen

Lol I just got another money-begging call from my college. Who TF does that on a Sunday night

I think I've gotten them on Sundays before. It's probably because they make students make those calls so they just have them do it at all hours.

Also, I feel I must say that MNTwins and STLCards had a great time playing Mario Kart today and shame on everyone who didn't join us.

Who is the better MK player? Was there a conclusive victor or were you guys pretty evenly-matched?

I'm better but he's not half bad. He finished ahead of me a few times. We were playing in a group of randoms aside from each other.
