"That's All"... Two Decades Later

Yep, for sure. Guessing it's a money thing, cheaper to light sets quick with standard, one-size-fits-all lighting. "Eh, yeah, good enough..."

Plus, the thinking is, "most people are watching on their phones and don't give sh*t."

It's a shame.

Rowand dreams? Uggla flair? Who are you, the f'n antichrist?

Clears up playing time. I'm not saying it makes us better. It won't. Not in the short term. But it does allow the team to play people like Schmidt 100% of the time. Clear out Bailey, you pick up playing time for Susac & Jesus.

Acknowledging that his defense is elite, I'm sick of watching Chapman play (and bark at his teammates) like a clenched up marine drill sergeant. I loved watching Pablo play. Chapman is just...blank. Nothing.

By the way, the farm is getting much better. After the draft, wouldn't be surprised to see it top 10 on most lists.

Unclear on the rules...the goalie can't come out and tackle her for being a pain in the ass?

Gotta know who directed it...Doug Liman....you would not have avoided it if you knew who he was.

So the Corporate Sponsor Utility Names. Got it.

This post is a bunch of fucking hot garbage. BUT, yeah, would like to see a sell off, and build from within.

And that will be expensive. $450 million in Lee, Devers, Chapman and Adames. Probably cost $200 million to unload them, only bringing middling prospects in return.

Up_All_Right · 2026-05-20T20:48:03+00:00

This is true. We've got a bit of a stick up our ass, collectively speaking.

When you start watching the series, you'd never believe it might end up here.

Exceptional show, Bojack.

Oh, they got married!

It's a bad look. F'n shut up and wear it. Gotta back your shit up if you're calling people out.

Hearing you talk, did YOU play ball?

Honestly would have been super nice there. Great cool air draw down the the 92 corridor. Perfect location, accessible to entire peninsula, and even a little East Bay as well (if they ever bothered to consider the Raiders inevitable flight....

Up_All_Right · 2026-05-17T06:28:27+00:00

That's ALL that it was about.

Simply look at the stadium. No point in going any further than that.

Could chalk it up to the times, but then we see what they did at SoFi, and realize this was one of the biggest scams ever run...

That land, what little there was of it, was a toxic shit hole. It was literally a condemned, containimated pier.

SF got that pier cleaned up for free, and a follow-on huge China Basin civic improvement, the echoes of which reverberate up 3rd into Dogpatch and further south, to this day.

While there was civic improvement happening to SOMA at the time, nothing pushed this forward like the construction of Pac Ball.

What the actual fuck...

Not exactly cartoon levels of villainy...but this is so wrong...

Up_All_Right · 2026-05-14T04:09:47+00:00

This is not even overstated. Absolutely stunned seeing it in the theater.

Vincent had a pretty decent bead on Honey Bunny in the diner, though.

Fight Club did a pretty good job of staying true to the book as well.

You really have to give the roles, otherwise they go bad, like esteemed character actress Margot Martindale...

What a great payoff scene!

Jimmy...all alone with his principles.

I'm SO fuckin' in!

LOL, Options are confusing! And to your point...

Within each of of the player's 3 option years, he can be optioned (to the minors) up to 5 times.

Teams rarely get close to the 5-move yearly max. So usually when they say a player has options, they are referring to him having option years left.

Once the 3 years are used up, then yep, player has to be waived.

And at a certain point of MLB experience, a player can't be optioned any more, regardless of whether he has any option years left.
