[darthska]

No but seriously, what was the taco Bell promotion?

And... Backstreet Boys?

That's the longest I've ever listened to them.

And I am now dumber for it.

And the example he brought up to prove that MLB managers don't need to wear the team's uniform? Charlie Manuel. lol He said it's just sad forcing him to squeeze into an MLB uniform every game, and he should be allowed to dress casually with a Phillies hat or something if he wants to.

was that the simmons article of sports rules like golfers not high-fiving anymore cause they look so awkward?

hahaha yea i was dying when he mentioned charlie manuel....i always think that he looks like such a clown when he walks to the mound to make pitching changes

Nope, not tomorrow it's the 28th I think. From 2-6 PM or something like that. Jacoby did it last year.

 

[paul is on tilt]

I knew the Backstreet Boys wouldn't get a good reception here. Personally, I thought it wasn't bad.

Bill Simmons.

Damn. You're good. I just checked, and it was Bill Simmons. October 6th issue, with Ovechkin on the cover.

It was different rules, and that one was 'New Rule: No uniforms for baseball managers.'

Another new rule I liked: 'New Rule: Playground rules for the NBA All Star Game.'

Well the damn point is you get a free taco!

 

[13rownie]

i like how our bench coach is out there instead of charlie
charlie would be so lost....

 

[JD617]

I don't think TBS is gonna be getting any more games for a while after what happened in the ALCS.

 

[darthska]

Sooo...

stolen base in games 1-4 = free taco on October 28th, between 2pm and 6pm
-OR-
stolen base in games 5-7 = free taco on November 3rd, between 2pm and 6pm

Got it.

November 3rd won't happen, because the Rays will steal a base in game 1, 2, 3, or 4.

 

[13rownie]

atta boy werth
make him work...

 

[gullydagreat]

[cincoseisdos]

[darthska]
