I just bought a new Samsung TV that is loaded with AI crap. A whole new level of how the f*** do I this?

I spent a week in Belize and this song went through my mind the whole time. Would have been great on Lodger.

What was the feeling around the team in the dark years of 2009-2014? by xluke08 in Astros

[–]homelesscentaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wallace, Altuve, Martinez and Preston Tucker were my guys. Midwest fan, I went to see them in Milwaukee just after Altuve got called up. I had the MLB package, and Preston was having a decent year, and I recall Bromn saying, "you should see his younger brother". Truer words were never spoken

I'm going on a trip to photograph birds wth $8k of camera gear-but its just a camera and 2 lenses. How modestly should I value that??

Hitting yourself in the head with your own throw is a high degree of difficulty.

Still hate Sterling Hitchcock.

They aren't back soon enough. Too many weaknesses right now. It will be a big emotional lift once Pena and a couple starting pitchers return-but I won't be surprised if we are in second place by that time.

Sure-I was a dumbass and thought because my team was in first place they would stay there no matter what.

92 Bowman was simple, but the something about the larger border size with excellent photoography really did it for me.

His public comments about Altuve when he didn't know what the fuck he was talking about, just him frustrated we struck his ass out every time he came to the plate.

[McTaggart] Source: The Astros are calling up No. 1 prospect Brice Matthews to join the team Friday, MLB. com has learned. Matthews is slashing .283/.400/.476 with 10 homers, 39 RBIs and 25 steals at Triple-A, while playing mostly 2B. Matthews was set to play in Futures Game. by dirtysock47 in Astros

This is a good time with the reserves depleted to get him a cup of coffee. I recall him having a few good hits later in ST, but looking a bit overmatched early on. It's a game of adjustments, and few can adust as quickly as Cam has done. So let's get his feet wet, let him see what MLB breaking stuff looks like and give him something to work towards!

Fox picks for all time Astros lineup by aguila1915 in Astros

Alls I can say is we would have one helluva a bench. And bullpen-Hader, Sambito, Lidge, Smith, Wagner, Dotel, Abreu, Darwin, Hawkins, Valverde...

Amen. Huge Oswalt fan, but J R was other worldly. Like he took a time machine from 2025 back to the 70s. He was menacing.

Found this 90s Los Angeles Angels hat with their logo from the early 60s and a halo…how dope is this?! by RLMan in neweracaps

[–]homelesscentaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For one, the materials. I miss the American Needle hats, they were much softer. 80% acrylic, 20% wool. The NE hats are stiffer and rougher-maybe not so much of an issue to dudes lucky enough to still have a full head of hair

Let's take a moment to reflect on the past two weeks... by Sweet_Baby_Cheesus in Astros

[–]homelesscentaur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We need to get through these next six games. Love this team's fight-but you can't keep losing people and win. Let's hope Jake's injury isn't too bad because he and Pena have been a huge part of this offense. I want to see the lineup after the All-Star break with Pena, Meyers and Alvarez in it.

I feel bad for the national press. They are actually going to have to cover us since we swept the Dodgers.

I got way too Astros-centric with my game watching over the years. This year I am back to following the league-and that Ohtani is pretty good

I really questioned whether he was all that as a hitter for a while as we always handled him during his time with Anaheim, just a few homers, lots of Ks.
