I worked with a guy who went to A&M. He joined this fraternity where freshman weren’t allowed to drink, but when you become an upperclassman you could drink, just not with any of your brothers. So let’s say you were at a bar having a drink and one of your brothers came in. You either had to leave, he had to leave, or you had to throw your beer away. Just totally normal stuff. He said it was one of the biggest and most prestigious frats on campus. He also never had a girlfriend despite his best efforts.

👽 did he explain the reasoning of that? How dumb. Who let them into the SEC? Sounds more like Big 10 material.

The teams with 4 of the 5 best records in MLB are out of the playoffs, and the last one is currently in a 2-1 hole.

When I made the statement a while back that the best teams don’t often make the World Series, there was legitimately ONE poster who disagreed. Guess who?

Oh thee of little knowledge or recall....

Here is what I posted after your illogical rant....

The best team won it all last year. Although, that is not "typical", the best teams usually contend, which is what you want to do, and then let the arms carry you in the post season. The Reds screwed up big time by not going after a top arm.

"A lot" of young players is not going to win you anything.

Clutch hits and luck....well, duh. This can be said for every single team, even the Braves.

You countered with:
And the NL pennant was won by the Phillies, who won 87 games. The 2021 pennant (and World Series) was won by the 88 win Atlanta Braves.

To Wayne’s point….

- 2 hot starters
- a great bullpen

So yes you are correct.


And then I trumped you again...

...who went 44-28 in the second half to WIN THEIR DIVISION, and ended up with a +134 run diff, which was 3rd in the NL. They were one of the best teams in MLB and were legit contenders, which is what was stated.


Thanks for playing.

Out running errands this morning getting ready for a big race of ours tomorrow. Stopped in my favorite divey donut shop. No frills, warm glazed donuts. Pour over coffee from a Bunn machine. 400 pound dude owns the place. Fold out card tables. A newspaper laying around. Grainy tv in the corner showing Fox News. You know the deal.

I’ve been looking forward to this all week. Sometimes the simple things in life truly are the best.
