oblong Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I found a setting in my MLB app that has 30 second delay for scoring change or end of game alerts. Last year I'd my watch buzzes with 2 strikes and 2 outs in the ninth. 1 1 Quote

Normally the game would be on in the afternoon, I would watch it, and then go bowling at night. But since it's Cy Young Skubal vs Ohtani and the world champs, the game got bumped back to a 6:10pm CT start for a national cablecast on, ironically, the football/basketball sports leader. At that exact time I will be on Western Avenue driving to the alley, with our league night starting at 6:45pm, and going through to about 9:30pm, well after the game will be over. And no way any of the TVs at the alley could be tuned to the game because, thanks to the genius of Rob Manfred, Opening Day is the same day the NCAA Sweet 16 starts, and everyone at the bowling alley has a bracket to follow. You look like ****. Call in the substitute bowler. 1 Quote

It would be wise to have Jobe and Mize start against the weak-hitting Mariners. How is there no game on Sunday? What a clusterfoible. This happens at the beginning of every season. Some series goes Thursday through Saturday with no off days, some series goes Thursday through Sunday with a day off in there, usually a Friday for those weather sketchy home teams. Quote

But it doesn't happen to US It's supposed to rain all day Sunday. What the **** are we supposed to do all day? Stupid Manfred. Quote

Stupid Manfred. Do your taxes. Do your laundry. Do a puzzle. Play some OOTP. Go bowling with chasf. Empty out your spice pantry. Check your fire alarm batteries. Watch a movie. Listen to a podcast you’ve never tried. Make a quiche. Eat a quiche (after its cooled, not out of the oven). Put your snow thrower away for the season. Quote

IdahoBert Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I did spring cleaning today with my new cheap next day 5am delivery one year limited warranty Bissell vacuum cleaner thanks to The Great Satan and it worked so well it could suck the paint off a Harley. Quote

Taxes A puzzle? What's the point. You put it together and it's over Laundry? I'm in radio, what's the point? OOTP is not a substitute for real baseball. Can't bowl, it's a hand thing. My spices are on a shelf over the stove, there are 5 of them and they are already in alphabetical order Movies are for Winter. What ELSE what I do when I listen to the podcast. A Quiche ? I'm a REAL man. I never brought my snow thrower out. Never needed it. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Keith at first, Tork at DH This makes no sense to me. Tork improved at 1b last year, Keith is shaky there. Quote

Yes, all of that. But also make sure to film it, add a soundtrack in the background, then edit it down to a 40-second TikTok video. If you do that entire list and still have time left over, you could even spend time with your family. Quote
monkeytargets39 Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Prediction: Kriedler hits the first home run for the tigers Quote

monkeytargets39 Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I took like a ten year break from here. I assume the Adopt-A-Tiger program is no longer a thing? Quote

IdahoBert Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Surprise surprise the Yankees won their game on ESPN 4–2. Quote
IdahoBert Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Listening to 32 minutes of talking head announcers’ peppy MLB boosterism on ESPN it is not particularly on my menu, but they will inadvertently have to talk about the Tigers. Quote

I don't really mind ESPN carrying a game now and then, but selfishly, because I don't have cable, I wish they didn't have to do opening day. or at least not the Tigers' opening day. 1 Quote
