I was blindsided by that punchline. I demand a different comic.
@ Mercurial Outfielder:
He needs to write one about the Dodgers
I’m still awaiting GBTS’ next masterpiece.
Mrs. Josh is funny.

Josh is on a roll.
Have you ever considered giving “Smart Guy” a fountain drink instead of a beer? He must be parched after all these musings without a beverage.
Also, Beer Guy should probably be dead or in need of a liver transplant.

It’s a very clear on the Island of Cubfandom.
@ SVB:
Night musings require some clarity, I suppose.
It’s kind of fun to imagine Mufasa coming out of the clouds over Josh’s picture, though.
cordero blows another save
@ SVB:
It’s ridiculous how long it took me to construct that little night scene. That’s why I keep recycling it.
@ Rice Cube:
I’m sure Josh is saving the cloudy or hazy night for a particularly funny comic.
@ Mercurial Outfielder:
Because of “copter” I had to look this up. Here’s the first Urban Dictionary definition, which made me laugh even more.

Fucking embed code. Damn piece of shit.
Well, in lieu of what I tried to post above, here’s something else for the science geeks here. I guess many of you will have heard the song already.
i posted this on twitter and trust me I thought long and hard before doing it- but I did hear tonight from a good source that LAD has informed Garrett Gould he will be part of a deal for Dempster. So when nothing of the sort happens remember I’m the asshole who said it would

Well I love you Dylan. So it’s OK.
@ dylanj:
Dammit dylan, now that we’ve heard about it, it can’t be true
and I swear that if it doesn’t happen I will gladly reveal the fucker who betrayed me!
honestly, I only got the word because Gould is from my area. It could be total nonsense.
@ dylanj:
that comports with what kinlaw has been saying; one prospect agreed upon, the other being haggled over.
@ dylanj:
if it falls through, gould will have been inordinately dicked around this summer, him being a random righty in hi-a ball.
isn’t this Kinlaw guy just Scott Swaim all over again?
reinsdorf is a fuckwad

@ dylanj:
he’s been a little too right on about some things, while other things are obviously false. at this point, i wouldn’t be surprised if he’s hacked into a bunch of other guys’ twitter accounts and is putting up rumors minutes before they can.
that’s exactly what that Swaim guy did. Their tweets are really similar in structure/tone. anyway enough rumor mongering for me im off the sleep
@ dylanj:
gotcha. then, yes. i think it’s probably the same guy.
@ GW:
He and Bud Selig have been at the center of every single labor problem MLB has had for the last 30 years.
THe really shitty thing about those statements from Reinsdorf is that they expose an important fact: he doesn’t want to invest the money in his own team to bring the org and farm into the 21st century, so he’s jsut going to use his influence with the Commish to handicap the aggressively progressive sides.

Commenting on the discussion yesterday about how there are no assholes here… I love this place. I think it has to do with the size of the community. If someone comes here asking a question about anything really, there are plenty of knowledgeable people to give an answer. And because of the size, there aren’t many people asking the questions. What I mean is if there were new people coming in every day asking the same questions, it would get frustrating to those who answer which would cause the mood to go down, especially since the team sucks.
I imagine mb, B, 424, and AC woudl like more visits but I like it here better than anywhere else. Other blogs that I visited when they got too big (Second City Hockey for instance) kind of lost something. I don’t know. Just my 2 cents.
@ WaLi:
That’s true. One reason it seems to stay civil is that people tend to return over and over. You get used to seeing the same user name and so you even start thinking about that little blue bear as a real person.
We like our community so much, we cut it short.
Are you guys having an online group hug? Cute.
Circle jerk would probably be more appropriate.
WaLi seems to be saying he loves this place because it’s a piece of shit. I can’t argue with him today.
@ Mish:
Mish pretends he doesn’t care, but we’ve all seen his puppy posts.
@ WaLi:
Fuck you, asshole.
@ Suburban kid:
That summed it up better than I could have (dying laughing)
@ Mish:
It is starting to sound like Thoyer’s introductory press conference in here
Anyway, nice to drop in and see that the 5-strong OV hivemind is still playing nicely together (dying laughing)
@ Mercurial Outfielder:
Reinsdorph said he’d contract two teams. Interesting. I can’t say I disagree with that too much. Certainly a team like Tampa that draws only 9,000 people to a game despite being a winning team has some fanbase issues. Pittsburgh, KC, Oakland could also go.
But to me the issue is that baseball doesn’t have teams in the right places. Tampa should be in Brooklyn. NYC really should have 3 teams. The market can easily handle it. Oakland should move too, and everyone knows it, but SF is standing in the way.
new shit up

fun thread to read through

Yeah, it was like jazz.
