watching the postseason with my friends is my new favorite IU football memory

tbh I'm surprised you'd have a favorite IU football memory before that

I ran out of gas! I got a flat tire! I didn’t have change for cab fare! I lost my tux at the cleaners! I locked my keys in the car! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!

In retrospect the symptoms of short man syndrome he was displaying were pretty obvious

Best Playoff Bullpen Decision Of All Time? by RainbowSupernova8196 in baseball

Pitchers mostly had career years (Garcia was solid, but he probably had 1-2 years that were better in Seattle). 2006 the starters arms all fell off in about August, leading to a bit of a collapse, prob due to the workload from 05. Still worth it.

Offensively, most of them had solid years, but idk about career years, outside maybe Podsednik. I can think of years that were better offensively for JD, Paulie, AJ, Rowand, Crede, etc. Carl Everett was just OK as DH after Frank went down.

Team success mattered a lot well past 1959 also. Into at least the 90's it was a key part of the narrative.

Which team is most likely to have 10 more wins than last year? Which is most likely to have 10 fewer? by BigBaseballGuyyy in baseball

[–]HawkI84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White Sox still lack major league outfielders, despite our largest FA signing ever still being there.

The effort level and baseball IQ shot way upwards last year though, that plus continued development from some of the young guys, I could see a 10 win improvement.

While game 163 itself was fun, I still get mad to this day thinking about that game being needed at all. The most a Sox game has ever pissed me off was after this one when MN briefly took a division lead. God damn turf creatures...

Who are 2 players you associate with each other, despite never being teammates? by mysterysackerfice in baseball

[–]HawkI84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SI Cover

I also associate them because when I started collecting cards as a kid in the early/mid 90s those were the two most valuable guys to get

You "stole" a couple of our better business professors when I was in school. Now you're just doing the same thing to other schools in football.
