MLB 2018 regular season thread

Thirty years plus ago, I saw Rodney Dangerfield live. His timing was so good. He could tell the hoariest old stinker of a joke and still pull a laugh out of you simply on his timing and delivery. I still remember half a dozen jokes he told that night.

The one that is applicable here was "Yeah, you seen my Lite Beer commercials?" (crowd applauds) "Yeah, since I started drinking Lite Beer, my wife says I'm less filling but I taste better." (loud laughter)


The funniest moment of the night came after his set was over. He had the house lights brought up and took questions. Some were serious inquiries, some were softball setups for a joke, and a few were people trying to heckle Rodney, who no doubt had heard them all before.

Anyhow.

"Any other questions?"

"Yeah. What do you do for a living?" (Crowd goes "OOooooh! and a few laugh)

"I find men for your mother." (Crowd howls with laughter)

RIP Rodney.

I always loved the commercial where the group is in a haunted house and they accuse Rodney of stealing the beer. Then Rodney pulls off the mask to reveal Uecker
