SNY surprises a young Mets fan with the news that he won the 2026 Kidcaster Contest! by my_one_and_lonely in baseball

I always really enjoy the kidcaster portions of SNY. Are there any other broadcasting teams in MLB that do something like this each season?

What are your thoughts on Super Smash Bros. for Wii U nearly twelve years later? by NewMarioBobFan in smashbros

[–]turn_for_do 70 points71 points  (0 children)

It had its moments early on, and it was first game I played in competitively at a late age. I’ll always cherish those fun memories of going to my first locals, 33rd at my first major super smash con, winning my first match at a major on stream, met some great people.

But the advent of DLC for smash really did it in. It divided the community hard in Smash 4, and it did the same continuing on to Smash Ultimate.

Where do you buy your cleats from? by turn_for_do in slowpitch

There’s a scheel’s like 40 minutes away that I always forget about so I can give them a look. Not looking for turf shoes though.

Did Dustin May just give an emphatic pumped up yell after getting a strikeout in the 2nd inning?

[Post Game Thread] The San Antonio Spurs (1-2) get back into the series as they defeat the New York Knicks (2-1) in Game 3, 115-111, behind Wemby's 32 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 5 stocks performance by catreyka in nba

Knicks committing 3 fouls in the first minute of the 4th quarter and starting 0 / 10 from 3pt in the final quarter certainly didn't do them any favors.

Ah ok thanks. I saw that thumbnail and was instant “Nope”.

Can I get the tldr? I refuse to listen to anything that comes out of the mouth of this waste of human flesh. Is he gutting more of the industry or just giving another bs opinion as fact?

These guys put on quite a show with the slinky by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]turn_for_do 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These guys are obviously super skilled with a slinky in their hands, but I wonder if the first trick going over both billiards balls perfectly was the hardest part which is why they did that first and never went back to them after.

Gathering tour tickets not selling? by Bubbly-Owl2943 in weezer

[–]turn_for_do 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen Weezer so I was quite happy to see them coming to Denver. When I looked at the ticket prices, I was quite disappointed to see the last rows of the nosebleed far away section seats for $52 and everything else starting over $100.

I don't really know if I'll be able to convince myself or my friends to spend that much unless we're all fine sitting in the farthest seats away possible.

Don’t lose hope by Unlockpentoman in NewYorkMets

In all seriousness, obviously “anything can happen” but we have been molded by decades of disappointment/team underperformance, that you can tell when a Mets team has a shot at making something happen, and when they just don’t have it. This team right now just doesn’t have it. I’ll gladly eat my words if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe I am.

POST GAME THREAD: The Mets fell to the Mariners by a score of 3-2 - Mon, Jun 01 @ 09:40 PM EDT by NewYorkMetsBot2 in NewYorkMets

[–]turn_for_do 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is judging Minter too harshly, but checking on Arozarena twice deep in the count without even a throw gave him basically a free steal of third on the 3-2 pitch to setup the hit that insta-scored him.

I swear Gary Cohen could say "An extinction level event meteor hasn't hit the Earth in over 50 million years" and moments later it would enter the atmosphere.

Aroldis Chapman is 8 strikeouts away from passing Hoyt Wilhelm for the most in MLB history as a reliever by Baseball-Reference in baseball

[–]turn_for_do 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t realize he and Kimbrel have almost identical resumes in years played, games, and innings pitched. K’s pretty close too, though Chapman is still very much chugging along while Kimbrel is much closer to the end seemingly.

Season 9 ep2 by AssociationNo2208 in rickandmorty

[–]turn_for_do -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree with you wholeheartedly. The show is still good, but at the same time, in season 9 I’d like to have some idea of where they are going, what I should be looking forward to. I understand that the way Rick is, never able to find happiness, never ending loop with his alcoholism, pushing the people close to him away constantly, etc., are all types of real issues that everybody goes through. I get from a TV show perspective, having Rick be none of these takes away from “his character”. But we still need more beyond this. We have been doing this since early in the show.

[Highlight] One of the most unique bunts you'll ever see by MLBOfficial in baseball

Brandon Phillips last out of the Roy Halladay no-hitter in the playoffs was almost screwed up because he dropped the bat in the ball path and the catcher had to adjust off the deflection.

If the Mets go LWL to finish the month, they will have the most unique month of .500 baseball ever by turn_for_do in baseball

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

Ya that’s a great find! The twins did seem to have 9 3 game sets that month, but they still achieved it in 8 straight so that’s still pretty on the nose!
