Perpetually enraged/tortured basketball fan (and team jersey choice critic). Otherwise mostly normal sports fan. Probably more excited to meet your dog
Fuck it, posting the whole walk off sequence from tonight's view because FUCK JOHN FISHER, FUCK ROB MANFRED, AND FUCK MLB OWNERS FOR TAKING THIS AWAY. THE A's. BELONG. IN OAKLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LET'S FUCKING GO OAKLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“The Rangers and the Oakland Athletics.” “And the roving Athletics, 42 wins 61 losses.” -Dave Raymond Just love how announcers give zero respect to a team that’s lost all of it at the hands of John Fisher.
Dave Raymond always gonna get his jabs in. (He’s not a fan of the relocation) “Last night OAK…Oakland…last night the Athletics (itinerant athletics)” Itinerant: traveling from place to place
Career home run number 350 to the SECOND DECK 🧹🧹🧹 #166 (14)
Paywall broadcast strategy of major sports league events ended up being a waterfront sandcastle against rising high tide. (Prime is excluded from this insult for obvious reasons.)
NBCU is exploring launching a sports cable network. No it's not April Fools Day. The network would simulcast sports from its Peacock streaming service. wsj.com/business/media… via @WSJ

What a mind-numbingly stupid game. One ridiculously dumb inning fucks everything up. And we're still sitting here, waiting for them to lose. Idiots
Better Vision. Better Calls. Yes, we still offer all MLB refs free LASIK.
The Oakland Coliseum used to be such a beautiful place to catch a ball game....Such a shame.
Love that Buffalo is wearing this Week 18 for the stadium send-off. But surprised they didn't sprinkle in one more appearance. Wild to think there's a world where Allen misses out on the red helmet fun while resting with nothing to play for.
Jalen Hurts on why he won't say "repeat": "It's a new journey, it's a new season. Those things are far behind us. The past is behind us, the future's too far away. We have to stay present and worry about right now."
Bryson Stott's wife gave birth to their son today. He wanted to play tonight. He's doubled and homered in his first two at-bats.
Imagine having legitimate dreams and aspirations in life and after all your hard work you end up running a Dak Prescott Fan Page 🤣🤣🤣
Imagine having legitimate dreams to play professional baseball and after all your hard work the professional baseball team you end up on is the “Savannah Bananas”
The #Packers received $432.6M in national revenue from the NFL last season. Multiply that by 32 and that means the NFL distributed roughly $13.84 billion to its teams (up from $12.97 billion the year before). Because they’re publicly owned, the #Packers must release their…
Ichiro Suzuki visited the @baseballhall 7 times as an active player. He wanted to absorb stories of players with whom he shared history — such as George Sisler, whose single-season hits record he broke in 2004. Ichiro’s speech on Sunday will be one for the ages. @MLBNetwork
Buddy I have bad news for what you're gonna hear in about 10 days
I had a nightmare last night that Dombrowski told us that David Robertson, Justin Crawford, a hot Kepler, and a healthy Nola were basically our trade deadline acquisitions.
The Red Sox radio call before Schwarber's dinger was incredible "I'm reluctant to read the following numbers with Schwarber - he has really not done much at all against Giolito. He is in his career 3/17 with 9 strikeouts and, *whispers* say it very quietly, no home runs"
Jalen Hurts on receiving his ring: “It was surreal to see it in person. Almost nostalgic, to see something that you’ve earned. To see something one last time. Kind of overdue in terms of when it was supposed to be initially. It was a moment, but that moment is behind us.”
What the fuck Luzardo. How do you go from not giving up a hit for four innings to... this
