Picture thread: Better closers than Tosh & Sark

[DerekJohnson]

I don't know if money is fully the issue or not, but I do know what you mean. It seemed like the whole world was riding on that '86 series. One didn't dare miss any of it. These days, I don't think I've watched a World Series in 3-4 years. I know the steroid era really stuck in my craw, because I was a numbers junkie and baseball stats were very important. But when lead off hitters were suddenly hitting 50 home runs, the authenticity of the game vanished for me. The owners wanted to make the game more exciting so they looked the other way. Then when called on it, they feigned ignorance. Kind of like Dawgman.com. So fuck it.

Disagree, all forms of soccer are ranked below bass fishing, skeet shooting, womens volleyball and drinking.

You don't think Brady Anderson could have hit 50 bombs without juice?

You are bitter.

Best leadoff guy of all time? Pre-Mariner Rickey Henderson. Guy was hands down the best in his prime....he unnerved even the best of the best starters and single handedly won the 89 series for Oakland over my beloved Giants.

If this is going to turn into a baseball thread then I'm quitting on the spot. Much like when Race quit writing for DM.com and Derek quit writing for the pigskin post.

why do you hate the national pastime?

why do you hate the national pastime?

Because the local team sucks at it. I'd rather be at Cheers West getting drunk and wishing for waitress pussy.

Brady was just average or below his whole career then suddenly shows up one spring totally ripped and cranks out 50 HR. Seems totally legit

Edgar Martinez thinks Brady's sudden improvement was legitimate.

You just don't understand the intricacies of the game like Sandmeyer....

Now you just sound bitter

Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire agree.
