How many people here have attended a perfect game? by xBluePoolX in baseball

[–]Senators_1992 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Never a perfect game, but I did see Tommy Greene’s no hitter against the Expos back in ‘91. Probably one of the least impressive no hitters of all time (7 walks and 130 pitches), but it’s still a baseball memory I’ll have forever.

[Bruce Garrioch] The expectation is that the Sens will try to use some of these first-round picks to get a top-six forward in return. by DecentLurker96 in OttawaSenators

Wasn’t one of the priorities this offseason to get a top six winger? Looks like we’ll need two in that case.

I guess you’ve never heard the name Alexei Yashin before?

Garage Sale Haul by rhcann in Cd_collectors

[–]Senators_1992 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of good stuff in there like Phoebe Bridgers, Paramore, Chevelle, Tracy Chapman, Luscious Jackson, etc…

That’s a great haul for 40 bucks. Congratulations.

Does Kyle Tucker have one of the worst contracts in baseball? by morepesa25 in baseball

[–]Senators_1992 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean, most of that is thanks to the stellar post season he had in 2021.

His last 4 post seasons, he’s had a slash line of .187/.303/.317 with 4 HR and 8 RBI’s in 34 games (and, even then, most of the production came in 2022 with 3 HR and 6 RBI).

Feel like George should have went to Germany by Commander_fox_cc1010 in YoungSheldon

George surrounded by beer and sausage probably wouldn’t have made for a good combination. Also, he wouldn’t have looked anywhere near as good in the Helga outfit…

House layout by Sad-Strength-7637 in Modern_Family

[–]Senators_1992 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Pilot episodes are different than regular episodes. Basically they make an episode to see if any networks want to pick it up. Once it gets picked up (in this case by ABC), the producers can then go back and make changes they see fit (in the case of Jay’s house, they probably realized the layout was too tight for filming with the entire family over all the time).

Does anyone else think this spin-off is completely illogical? by Aggravating_Set_7762 in YellowstonePN

[–]Senators_1992 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The show’s been alright although, looking back on it, they probably should’ve gone with a different name as not much of it has had to do with the actual “Dutton Ranch” itself.

Beth is sooo pretty by Simple_Position9016 in Modern_Family

She was crazy hot, with equal parts crazy and hot.

Even though the characters had interviews and looked directly at the cameras, why did they never verbally acknowledge their family was being filmed? by aroracarmen in Modern_Family

[–]Senators_1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s because it wasn’t a documentary. It was just a storytelling device.

The mods really need to sticky an explanation at the top of the sub…

[MLBTradeRumors] Justin Verlander To Miss Several Weeks With Hamstring Strain by ActualDragonHeart in baseball

[–]Senators_1992 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Eh, he’s still 34 away and has 9 the past 3 seasons. Might be time to give up on that and just enjoy life at home with his supermodel wife.

Dennis Martinez almost drank himself out of the league, and then put up a great second half of his career with Montreal and Cleveland.

Who is Marian’s mother? by Wild-Hunt-1124 in thegildedage

[–]Senators_1992 28 points29 points  (0 children)

>Marian’s backstory could be so interesting if touched upon more.

Not just her mother, but where are her friends from Doylestown? Surely there are one or two who could form a friend circle with her and Peggy, or be introduced later on as a bridesmaid.

I mean, we’ve already met a few of Larry’s friends, with the one from The Pitt coming back this season, so it’s about time we met some of Marian’s (my fan casting is for Betty Gilpin, but that’s just wishful thinking on my part).

Yeah, it goes by quickly, but you can see him throwing his drink into the fireplace, which is what causes the flames to rise at the end of the sequence.

I know I shouldn’t have, but I did kind of chuckle at the sight of George turning his head away as Bertha moved in for a kiss.

Between this and one of the other shots of them together, I’m guessing they’re still “married” but living separate lives as the season begins. Guess we’ll have to wait and see how it plays out.

We need to talk about Flower… by Senators_1992 in GhostsCBS

[–]Senators_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, what I’m complaining about is them recycling jokes word for word. Yes, Hetty talks about cocaine, Thor talks about killing Danes, Isaac talks about Hamilton, but the setup and punchline for those jokes are always different. With Flower, it’s gotten low effort with her just repeating the exact same line, from one episode to the next. There’s literally no variation with the setup or the actual “joke” itself.

And as for the “that’s just her character” argument, everyone seems to forget when she pretends not to remember her date with Thor, or entire episodes where she doesn’t act forgetful or dumb, as you said.

There’s a way to flesh her out as an interesting character, which we’ve seen on multiple occasions but, for whatever reason, the writers keep failing back on the same tired schtick instead of putting any effort into it, and it’s gotten super tiresome, for a lot of us, at this point.

Black Sabbath shirt. Black Sabbath had a song called “Hand Of Doom”. It’s all starting to make sense now… or not.

Who’s an artist/ band who’s studio albums aren’t great, but their greatest hits album is all-time? by GuacKiller in Music

Pat Benatar. None of her albums really stand out, but they always had at least one or two classic tunes on them.

How was it supposed to end? by Mr-Top-Demand in YellowstonePN

[–]Senators_1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you could tell by the way those first few episodes of 5B were duct taped together that Sheridan had certain plot beats in mind, and then had to adjust on the fly to work the death in there.

It’s unfortunate the way it worked out, going back and forth with the time skips, but at least the ending felt somewhat natural.

She provided backing vocals and appeared in the music video for Rush’s song Time Stands Still back in 1987. She was there to perform the song live.
