flashing the peace sign while going down a water slide with a 12 year old kid is just too funny…

Not everyone is happy

Most of the thread is group therapy.

OMG, another

I hate ryan braun cocky S.O.B. un tucks his uniform. I thought last year as always he has dis respected the game

This thread is ambiguous

I can only assume “First” refers to Robinson Cancel’s first start in the majors since September 1999. I too wish to celebrate former Brewers making a comeback.

Nice

Context, but I don’t know how that could possibly add to the quote.

i came here to say i'm guilty as charged

albert pujols just hit a huge home run in NY to give the cards the lead in extras and pretty much did the same thing as ryan braun did the other night. i am guilty for having a double-standard. i’m sorry for coming on here and raggin’ on braun for something pujols does.

that is all. have a good evening.

That's big of you to say...

eh

cubs fans just have their collective heads up their collective asses.

Well

according to 1 guy on bleedcubbieblue, we’re confusing them with bears fans. as if theres a difference

Was it a hit?
  • Yes. Hey you kids, get off my one-hitter!
  • No, and it should be changed. Even the Pirates fans, all twelve of them, thought so.
  • No, but it's too late to fix the glaring mistake now, unless...hey, we could pretend Sarah Palin gave up the hit!
