BITCH IM BACK
AND HERE WE ARE
LFG
Wow, is it slow in the sports world. Maybe that’s why I’m lowkey going crazy and partying every weekend. Maybe that or it’s summer. As you can tell by my first two sentences I haven’t watched much sports lately because like I said it’s BEEN FUCKING SLOW IN THE SPORTS WORLD.
I know I was at a party last week and drank too much tequila (which I never do). I also woke up with a bit of some sort on my leg that has festered into funny looking scar on my calf. I think it’s a Yellow Sac spider bit, ya I looked that shit up. Don’t worry according to the internet I won’t die.
But anyways I did watch some baseball the other night. The Yankees-Rays and the Braves-Brewers. Both were great games with plenty of highlights from entertaining players. The Rays catcher Travis D’Arnaud (probably spelled that wrong YOLO) hit three homers including a go ahead bomb off the hardest throwing pitcher in the game Aroldis Chapman. The Braves beat the Brewers and the highlight for me was Freddie Freeman golfing a curveball out to dead center off the scoreboard. That was bad ass.
And I want to be frank here, I really don’t watch much baseball other than the Mariners and lately I’ve watched a lot less because of the Mariners failures.
But these were fun games. The players played with passion and you could tell that all of them wanted to win. There was constant chirping between players and umps, partly due to framing pitches so well that the umps were having a tough time figuring out the zone.
Not only players but managers from all teams had constant chatter with umps regarding calls all over the field. I DON”T SEE THAT IN MARINERS GAME EVER.
Which I sort of get, considering that these 4 teams are playing for the playoffs and the Mariners are playing for the first overall pick.
But fuck man, I’m so tired of this Mariners bullshits and I’m tired of getting told to be patient. FUCK THAT AND FUCK YOU.
And don’t fucking tell me I’m a terrible fan. No, I don’t live in a fucking wonderland where I believe the Mariners are going to magically turn it around with a bunch of teenagers and early 20 year olds in 5 years. FUCKING STOP. I will buy it when I see it.
Now that’s not to say that Mariners are making the wrong decision tearing this down and trying to start over with homegrown talent. THAT IS A GREAT IDEA IF PROPERLY EXECUTED.
Read that last sentence one more time.
IF PROPERLY EXECUTED MIGHT BE THE MOST IMPORTANT WORDS IN THIS ARTICLE. BECAUSE GUESS WHAT? THE MARINERS HAVEN”T DONE THAT SINCE THE MID 90’S.
So yes this is the obvious and only choice to rebuild a tepid franchise, but I will not get my hopes up until I actually see it.
Now back from Mariners rant and onto another one. Those two baseball games I watched WAS FUCKING AWESOME.
I know that baseball is struggling with viewers (even though there are still some out there will somehow skew the numbers some other way that doesn’t make any fucking sense) and popularity in general. And I get that if you’re a Mariners fan or some other shit franchise but man those two games I watched were awesome and I’d watch those teams plays each other over and over and so should other people.
BECAUSE THAT IS GOOD FUCKING BASEBALL.
Now that leads me into my other tangent about what can help baseball become more entertaining, because lets be honest it’s the entertainment value that gets the viewers. So here’s a little list for you-
- Fighting- When was the last time the Mariners had a brawl? Ok, you’re hella funny bro if you said the clubhouse fight last year. SUPER ORIGINAL DUDE! But seriously, after about 5 minutes of research the last time I think the Mariners had a brawl was… honestly literally can’t find anything after 1998 about a brawl. So lets just say the clubhouse brawl from last year. What a fucking joke.
- Taunting- We need more shit talk. We need more somewhat inappropriate hand gestures at opposing players, and we definitely just need more of do not give a fuck attitude from players. This will definitely lead to more fighting so please start this.
- Rivalries- Currently the Mariners rival is the San Diego Padres. It was cute and all but are you fucking serious? The problem is that the Mariners are not competitive so nobody gives a fuck about them therefore that leads to no rivalries.
Ok, so the first two are kind of a joke. I mean I’d love to see a brawl and some more taunting but this is not what the Mariners really need for more fan support. It’s easy, win. Scout, draft and develop talent at the minor leagues so that you have a constant flux of players ready to be a part of a winning team. Maybe not easy, but it should happen sooner or later after nearly 20 years of shit baseball.
MY THOUGHTS AND NOT YOURS
HORNS DOWN 4EVER
So college football isn’t set to start for another month or so, but we already have our stupid headline/story of the year.
This started last year when the Oklahoma Sooners were playing the Texas Longhorns in their annual Red River Shootout rivalry game (GET OUT OF HERE YOU LIBS WITH THAT RED RIVER SHOW DOWN BS) and some Sooners players started making the Texas Longhorns hand signal, but upside down.
Of course Texas players took offense and some players were shoved and separated. But now this is being talked about again this year at the Big 12 media days. FOR GODS SAKE THIS IS A HAND SIGNAL OF AN UPSIDE DOWN LONGHORNS SIGN. Everyone will be ok, I promise.
18 GAME SCHEDULE? ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID?
I don’t mean to be a dick (ok maybe I do) but anyone that has this fascination with this 18 game schedule bullshit needs help. In no way shape or form should any players be playing 18 games a season physically.
But dude, there’s going to be rule that players can only play 16 games!!!
Well fuck, thanks for letting me know that this idea is even more fucking stupid.
Sorry, I don’t want see anymore bad football than I have to. Yes, we see a lot of great football throughout the season but there’s also those duds of games that nobody should have witnessed. Can you imagine a couple of those games on prime time television (which happens every years) and then after one of those duds (which Patrick Mahomes played his worst game of the season) you get to watch his backup, the journeyman, a Michigan man, Chad Henne.
Congrats, enjoy that dud and then Henne. Hopefully there’s another alcoholic beverages or weed for the world to get through that week.
Also can you imagine coaches having to figure out when to bench players? Man, would they fucking hate that. I guess what it really boils down to for me is that why would a team not field the best team they have if no one is injured? What is the point? More money for the league or the players? More entertainment for the fans?
Because in my opinion in no way is this going to add more entertainment to the NFL. Hell it could make the NFL less entertaining. As for money is it really worth it for two more games? It just can’t be.
Stick to 16 games. It’s the best for everyone’s sake.
TOP 5
TOP THINGS TO BBQ
ITS THAT SZN LADIES AND GENTS. ITS GRILLIN SEASON LFG
5. Vegetables or fruit- I honestly have never grilled a fruit in my life and don’t plan on it. Onions are vegetables right?
4. Chicken- Give me all the grief in the world but chicken is better prepared other ways than grilled. Youre’ welcome for the advice.
3. Burgers- There has been quite the onslaught of hurtful comments lately about how burgers being grilled is the wrong way to do it. Imo it’s not wrong if properly executed, but that can be tough.
2. Hot dogs- A simple but classic delicacy of a wonderful array of flavored and smoked meats. There’s nothing better than getting that thing sweating on the grill.
1. Steaks- Hands down the best food to grill. In my opinion it’s hard to screw up a steak on the bbq as long as youre not a dumb ass and check it every 5 minutes or so. LEARN HOW TO GRILL A STEAK TO SAVE YOUR LIFE.
