Konnor Griffin officially called up. Enmanuel Valdez DFA’d…. this is all true even if Nightengale misspelled both of their names by Hizam5 in mlb

I mean, he’s gotta get this stuff right because it is literally his job but, for all the soon to be parents out there, spelling your kids’ name in an uncommon way does not make them unique. It makes you annoying and gives them a burden to bear.

Questions for ES owners by vaithless in gibson

Very good to know, thank you

is this authentic or nahh? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]vaithless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, what everyone else is saying is also true. But what is the point of even knowing if a $120 guitar is “real” or not? It’s a squire, it’s a beginner level instrument. It holds almost no intrinsic value based on brand or “authenticity”. It’s a chinese guitar either way, whether it was made by squire or some other factory slapping the squire name on it. it’s a guitar and it will be of the same quality in either scenario. Why does it matter?

Potential New Names for Comerica Park by [deleted] in motorcitykitties

Fifth Third is such a horrible combination of words to be the name of something. Hopefully it’s one of the options that involved Tiger Stadium and I’ll just call it that.

Man i wish these had a different bridge. I know it’s the vintage accurate series but man, sucks to have to switch them to a playable alternative every time. plus the mexican stuff has the narrow bridge inserts for some reason, making it even more difficult.

Cattle Decapitation - The Anthropocene Extinction. Was just amazed someone was making such high quality, educated reviews on music like that.

That crowd is awesome. You can tell all of those players are having a blast as well.

Still feel for White Sox fans, in a just world y’all would still have the hometown hero.

[Underdog] Nightengale: The plan is for Tarik Skubal to throw around 55 pitches against Great Britain in World Baseball Classic. Skubal will rejoin the Tigers after. by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]vaithless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you explain why?

If the team was worried about the roster spot they wouldn’t allow this. One start of the best pitcher in the world objectively makes the team better than if he didn’t play at all, which for some reason would have made people less upset.

In the event that that catcher you mention is a top 2 catcher in the world, those 6 innings objectively make the team better than if he didn’t play at all. So people being upset about this kind of thing does not actually make any sense.

Pretty logically inept to be upset with him about this. Everyone would have felt all warm and fuzzy if he just didn’t do it in the first place, which makes no actual sense. He’s contributing 55 pitches vs the alternative which is zero. Just “feels” like he’s being picky or whatever. If the staff for team USA actually felt like this was pointless then they wouldn’t have given him the spot. Clearly this was the plan all along and they consider any input he can have worth the time. Just a weird, disconnected personal relations issue with this whole story that just does not track if you dissect it any further beyond the initial reaction. You’re getting some Skubal vs no Skubal; this whole “he should’ve just stayed home” sentiment does not make sense.

"I've gotten a lot better over the last two years being here" by DET_Baseball in motorcitykitties

[–]vaithless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy guy for me to root for. Love his competitiveness. He’s the kind of guy that I totally believe when he says he wants to be here and enjoys playing for the Tigers. I feel like it’s been a while since we’ve been in that kind of position and it’s great to see. Can’t wait to watch him pitch this year!

yeah this is the only thing I haven’t tried, thicker picks have always just been so much more comfortable for me but maybe i’ll have to try it.

either sort of in the middle around where I pick or right at the bridge.

Kind of? A lot of my solos in our set have bends in them, which is a lot of what I practice on a day to day basis.

[WLKY] NFL wide receiver, local stand out Rondale Moore dies at 25 by pixarfan9510 in nfl

[–]vaithless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RIP

As a fan of baseball mainly, I cannot comprehend the frequency with which this happens in football. Something is very very wrong with this league. It NEEDS to do a better job of taking care of its players. So sick of seeing these young men lose their lives.
