[MLB] 2023 Major League Baseball Season (MLB Thread)
- Thread starter jwhouk
- Start date
I've been expecting one for a while. I love the Giants, and have loved them since I was a kid, but I'll be damned if they aren't a giant fucking mess right now.Another present from Urinating Tree.
The Brewers one is coming. You just know it has to be.
On a side note, I got tickets behind home plate today! If anyone is watching the Giants game, you can see my ugly mug every time a batter is at the plate.
Assuming the camera lens doesn't shatter?
I'd expect more of a "legacy of failure" style video. Starting with how Selig yoinked the Pilots from Seattle, to the so-close-and-yet-so-far Wallbangers era, to switching leagues for who knows why, to the "untuckem" bullshit (it's a uniform, not a TARP, Prince,) to now.
Prince still looked like ass in that poncho he called a uniform. Even 1940s baggy didn't look that bad.
The 70s unis were practically skintight. So nope.

The Pirates went to pinstripes because of him.
Glass houses, kid.

Glass houses with World Series trophies in it.
...hmm? Did someone just call our name?
Doesn't count when you just buy them. I know this sounds strange, but other teams actually earn them. Weird, I know....hmm? Did someone just call our name?

C'mon. They earned that one in 1969.
If we could "buy them", we should of had a lot more from the 2000's. We wasted a lot of money for nothing. (Yes, I'm looking at you, A-Rod.)
Suckers!
My condolences. A-Rod truly is a piece of shit who ruins everything. I don't think I've ever despised a baseball player more.
I always thought it was funny having Jeter and A-Rod on the same team. It was like having an angel and a devil on the same side, in terms of their personality.
I question a few of the "investments" the Yanks made in the 2000's , but I was against A-Rod from the start. I remember the bidding war and Mr. Z saying his stats were worth it, but there was something about him that I'm like "This guy seems scummy. I think it's a bad idea.". Then as soon as he gets to NY, he proves me right.
One, in 2009, and I would hardly give him the credit for it. For all the bull just to get him on the team, there should have been at least 2 more.
IIRC he was by far the best player during that run.
Also, Yankees fans are so obnoxiously spoiled/entitled. Thanks for reminding me.
My cousin played for the Yankees. And the Yankees retired three of his numbers.[DOUBLEPOST=1500574198,1500573910][/DOUBLEPOST]Sorry, it was 2 Yankees jerseys and one Detroit Tigers jersey.
I have to go back and look, but I don't remember him running away with that series. He spent most Yankee tenure, on and off the field, acting like he was the second coming of Jesus, and frankly, he never had enough of an impact to support his ego.
You're welcome!
That's really cool! When did he play?
Now I know how @blotsfan feels when I mock the Bills' futility.
(But at least the Jays actually won the championships they reached!)
between Ruth and Mantle. He was wearing Ruth's Jersey when it was retired. Then he played a season with Mantle and was cut to make room for Mantle's pay. Then Mantle took his jersey.
That "Like" was for your cousin making it into the major league, and at what a time! Not for the cutting, which is unfortunate.

Supposedly DiMaggio did not like him. Cliff won a playoff game batting for DiMaggio.
