"they need to get rid of that!"

Dan not only KNOWS HOW to WIN but HOW to CELEBRATE!

Plenty of Catholics vs. Convicts hate today too!

the royals are one of those "teams of destiny" that mister "MOMENTUM IS TOMORROW'S STARTING PITCHER" is inherently predisposed to hate because he demands that we all believe in the ice cold grip of statistics in determining the one true path to total sports enlightenment; you don't go up to the plate to "make yourself dangerous" like hawk espouses, you go up there knowing that the pitcher has a 68% tendency to throw first pitch fastballs low and in to right handed hitters and then remember that you're hitting .143 against lefties with 95+ MPH fastballs and therefore you've gotta sit on the changeup because you're slugging .682 when you make contact with offspeed pitches when you're ahead in the count, and then you know that the CF's UZR rating is low so you're going to try and put the ball in the gaps unless they shift the defense on you in which case you also remember that your OBP is .480 when you're able to work the count to 2-0 or better, so therefore you better go up to the plate and make yourself ultra selective, that is after you take no less than 2 pitches because only a fool would deny all of these advanced statistics that tell you your greatest chance at having a positive at bat comes with patience and discipline and most importantly an encyclopedic knowledge of the pitcher/batter matchup thanks to you doing your homework.

meanwhile hawkeroo's guy up there at the plate simply thinks "man i'm going to fuck this guy up... he doesn't have a goddamn thing to get me out and he knows it!" and goes up there looking to hit the ball through the window of a robert taylor home.

one guy is one of rick telander's robots, the other is a human being. dan seems to inherently dehumanize the whole world of sports wherever he cans because to him everything is a statistic, an outlier, or a cromulent business decision because as always dan never grew up wondering how awesome it'd be to be michael jordan.... he grew up wondering how awesome it'd be to be michael jordan's boss.

one could argue that by wearing goggles to protect their eyes they are making a decision that protects their eyes and gets them closer to a championship

Dan predicts "nobody will be watching" the MLB playoffs. Clip and save.

Plenty of Catholics vs. Convicts hate today too! How could he even acknowledge the celebration? In his mind, they didn't win anything of meaning. ONLY CHAMPIONSHIPS MATTER.

Player safety is also an issue. I heard that corks hitting people in the head are the 31st most likely way to get CTE.

Anything more creepy than old man Boers talking sex? "Mr. Va-Jay-Jay", Terry? That's your code word for vagina? Weirdo. And why would it be "Mr."? If your gonna come up with a stupid word wouldn't it obviously be Mrs.? Not to mention "Vagina" is a word you can say on the air.

You know what I figured out from this last half hour? Terry watches lots of internet porn. That's why he misses so many Chicago sports games.

Today the Vegas books stopped taking action on Boers getting busted for kiddie porn on his laptop. Larry is still on the board but total chalk.
