    OK, then shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down after a strikeout, right?

    Didn't say that, but you don't see anyone throwing their mitts or high-fiving anyone after a K.

    Since apparently you or Foster have never covered baseball before, let's try this.
    You're an NBA player. 1st quarter. You come up the floor, and hit 4 17-foot jump shots in a row. After each jump shot you make, every player on your team, you make it a point to high-five them, point to the scoreboard and to the guy guarding you.
    What's going to happen to you on trip number 5 up the floor?
    I know the answer to this. Shot number 5 doesn't exist because you'll be on the ground underneath the backboard.

    Did 93Devil hijack your account?

    Of all the dumbass analogies I've seen in my days, yours is definitely one of them.

    So your last two "points" have been "The fuck does that even mean?" and "Did 93Devil hijack your account?"

    Which means you have nothing.

    Have a nice evening.

    Any NBA player who shoots 4 17-footers in a row will get bitched out by their coach for shooting long 2's instead of kicking out for 3's.

    Man, I love that commercial.

    Does it make me weird that I also love bat flips AND the ensuing pitch in the seat of the pants? I love good brawls. I love when guys are jacked up with emotion, whether they're celebrating, laughing or pissing vinegar because some rookie admired his shot a little too long.

    Put your head down and run the bases, don't shout after a big K ... where's the fun in all that?

    Looks like the Rangers are going to do their job this year... getting us to Cowboys camp. They hit the ball well, and their assemblage of Tommy John recovery projects is at least getting games to the bullpen and not taxing them.

    You must never have watched high school softball.

    Haven't watched that much, but usually the worst is the corny sing-song chants from the
    benches.
