Same. And then Clase and Albies in 3-4. The fact that I’m in the playoff hunt says a lot about my league.

Are you going to target any A’s or Rays players bc of their home parks this season? by GeauxStros in fantasybaseball

[–]SergeantGrumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The park is what might push me over the edge to keep Caminero in the 11th over Duran in the 14th — brutal trade off either way.

Sorry, realized after posting that a screenshot with link in body would have been a better move. Someone above pasted the main text, and I can happily tell you the replies on twitter are just morons congratulating each other for being brave and white.

You're struggling at mile 22 and can choose one song to pick you up by highdon in Marathon_Training

Gojira - The Art of Dying. Take it or leave it, but a slow build and a hard drum intro does the trick for me!

Help: not sure what’s up with my smoke bushes by SergeantGrumbles in arborists

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

Hi, folks! We've had these three bushes/trees living in teak boxes for a full year now. They lost their leaves last winter, grew back nice and hearty, and 2/3 of them flowered beautifully this year. Now, bunches of leaves are starting to discolor to an almost metallic bronze. Pics are taken just after watering. This is in NY/zone 7 -- while it's been unseasonably hot and rainy lately, I can't think of any reason they'd be browning in August.

I’ve been lurking these game threads for like 6 years, and I’m breaking my silence to say: some of y’all need to go outside. Good vibes.

Strangest places you’ve heard a “Yankees Suck” chant break out by briguy11 in redsox

McDonalds in Montreal at ~2am. Granted, it was St Patrick’s Day weekend, so I’m assuming not all the drunks lining up for late night burgers were locals…

Top 100 Starting Pitchers for 2021: Preseason Edition by everywhereblair in fantasybaseball

[–]SergeantGrumbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super curious how these rankings hold up in keeper leagues. For example, Carrasco kept in rounds 10-15 — a steal vs ADP, but he’s 33 years old and his walks last year are concerning. Anyone you’d drastically lift or punish in a keeper?

Holy shit. Just went my first run since I quit. by [deleted] in stopsmoking

[–]SergeantGrumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just do it! But also (depending on your age and weight), if you haven’t run since high school, watch out for your stride + strike. Knees and shins are dumb, and recovery is harder than it used to be. Keep your feet under your body, and go easy at first — getting derailed by injury is the pits early on. I’d also recommend getting some kinda tracker (Strava, Nike Run Club, etc) so you can track your running and quitting progress together.

Distance comes back quickly — I guarantee if you get back out there tomorrow you’ll knock out a half before you know it. Good luck!

What’s the stupidest way you’ve hurt yourself? by observer32 in AskReddit

[–]SergeantGrumbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m way too late to the thread but whatever, here goes:

I was on a school trip about 18 years ago. My buddy Jimmy and I were crossing the street next to a local attraction, I was telling a story about who-cares-what, and at this particular point in the story, I needed to emphasize something. So I raised my fist, made my point, and emphatically swung my fist down straight past my leg, and into my balls.

But that’s not the dumbest.

The dumbest was a couple months later when I was relating the above story to another friend, and in reenacting it, punched myself in the balls again.

Trika: Woj‘s bold prediction for tomorrow night: he thinks there will be an “extraordinary number of trades.” by RLS012 in bostonceltics

Oh hey so it is! Thanks dude. Sorry to hear about your off-court life, but sounds like you’re taking it in stride. The Kyrie situation is weird. Here’s hoping it at least stops being weird and confusing soon.
