The Berzerker posted:going back a couple of pages but I think they got the idea from the Jays (or vice versa), at the Skydome they do the "Roof Report with Josh Donaldson" where it has this big announcement and then Donaldson says either "It's open" or "It's closed" all disinterested and then the big outro They got Adam Conley to do something similar a while ago. https://twitter.com/MarlinsPark/status/735099825973121024 A pompous intro & outro would have been nice, but alas.

I feel like the Barves have pulled some sort of pool shark-esque maneuver, where they feigned terribleness for the sole purpose of getting everyone to let their guard down. edit: Popete posted:Here is a hot take. Good bunts are good, really bad bunts are hilarious, Bundt cakes are gross, and "sac bunt" is fun to say. These are my buntpinions.

DeepDickPizza posted:Bundt simply refers to the shape of the pan. What is "gross" to you about a round cake with a hole in the middle? Nail Rat posted:More like butt cake. It's spelled almost like butt and it looks like a butt. Nah, but seriously, I think the only Bundt cakes I've ever had were just dry and nasty, with the exception of pineapple upside-down Bundt cake, which was WET (not moist) and nasty. quote:A bundt cake done properly can allow a very nice frosting to cake ratio that is quite delicious. No, sir, I'm afraid this is a terrible buntpinion. It's "ma'am", and I hate frosting.

Second of all, I'm tired of racists acting like the internet is somehow not real life.

Popete posted:"First and foremost I would like to apologize to the SAS posters, my family and the fans of our great forum for the distraction my posts on my personal account caused when they went public earlier today. I am sickened by the idea that anyone would think of me in racist terms. My posts were reactionary to the events I saw in the thread and were worded beyond poorly at best and I can see how and why someone could read into my posts far more deeply than how I actually feel.

Inspector_666 posted:Yeah, this is hitting me a lot harder than I would have expected. That video of him catching the Tulo liner and their reactions is one of those "peak baseball" things for me, it's such an amazing snag an their reactions are just too good. Same. The thing is, I have no actual reason to be a fan of the Marlins -- they're division rivals of the Mets (edit: also I've only been to Florida and I hated it) -- but I was charmed into liking them, by a few of the players but especially Fernandez. He was just super fun to watch, even when he was owning the poo poo out of the Mets, so lively and spirited, always with a huge smile, that baseball is just going to be all-around worse without him.

Carlosologist posted:Brian McCann was in tears when he heard the news, I don't think its even fair to be mad about that anymore And all things considered, I don't really think McCann got in his face to be a jerk. I think he was trying to uphold an old, fun-killing, traditional baseball standard unnecessarily, but it didn't come from a place of malevolence -- it came from a place of concern.

So like, I just have to keep living my life normally as if it's just totally fine and normal that Jose Fernandez is dead, is that right? Why can't there be a "guy who I watched throw a bunch of baseballs on TV" clause in my company's bereavement leave policy?

Retail Slave posted:Mental health days are important though. You're not wrong, but 1) I'd feel weird about doing that because I feel like I'm not supposed to care this much, and 2) maybe getting out of the apartment & doing some work will be a welcome distraction.

Retail Slave posted:So feel weird for a little bit, and then tell yourself that you work hard and it's ok to take a day now and then. I don't know what you do for a living, but I promise you that nobody will die or get hurt or the company will not go out of business because you won't be there tomorrow. Ugh, stop being right at me.  quote:Just be far enough away to where there's no risk of bumping into anyone from work. I live almost 20 miles away from my job, I should be fine as long as whatever I do is within walking distance. I'll figure something out. Thanks for the advice.
