Man it's really hard for me to give a gently caress about the NFL right now. i just want to get to the 2018 season right now.

Is this what being a big baseball fan is like?

Cubs fans...is it normal to re-watch every single highlight, post game interview for hours on end???

Yes to both of these

I like watching Javy more. Almost entirely defensively. Offensively, he still can't process that slider low and away should mean don't swing.

Russell is definitely worth more. More consistent, so he's much more predictable.

I know he played for a lot of teams, but I always think of Beltran as an Astro.

He's gone straight from 80/20 to like 95/5.

Only nine position players have signed contracts and there are 136 free agents still available with pitchers and catchers reporting in 40 days; if you don't think the luxury tax is acting as a soft cap I don't know what to tell you.

He's just saying if the owners wanted to, they could exceed the cap. As it is, they want the money, so they let the tax dictate their actions a la proper salary cap.

I've only been to Wrigley once but I remember there basically only being Bud Light, Budweiser or Goose Island as the only beer options, and they weren't cheap. There were lots of bars within walking distance that'd offer a larger selection but I wasn't impressed. It was super nice to take the train and having it walkable.

Angels stadium has the cheapest beer and a large selection but 99% of people drive there so they aren't nearly as likely to get hosed up. They also don't allow tailgating except in one small area under the A so there isn't a huge party scene hours before a game like some other stadiums.

I think there might still be a stand where you can get Old Style. :v:

When you start talking about cultural appropriation and historical injustice to explain why Viking warrior pride is OK but Indian warrior pride is not, most people's eyes roll so fast they painfully stick for a few seconds.
