There's an Instagram account under the name Jose Meowtista and it's kinda hilarious.

2) Travis Wood looks like the maniac he assuredly is. And why is he holding his beer like that? I don't even see him. EDIT: Oh [expletive], he cut his hair. I see him now. I thought that was John Lester, until I spotted John Lester, so... I'm kinda with Derwood on this one. Who is John Lester? Also...

I get the concept, but how useful do you find it in tracking activity etc?

Having lived there for 13 years now as an "outsider", the biggest problem in my eyes is that it's such an insular place. They have no interest in change or outside thought and it's really the biggest reason that there's never any progress made toward revitalizing the downtown area. There's...

I really hope you're not making light of his appearance because he's got cerebral palsy.

Stan Kroenke is officially the worst human being in professional sports ownership. What an enormous piece of excrement.

Well, Loria may be worse, but at least is pretty up front with his douchiness.

We're just awful against small teams. Illinois isnt really a small team, but they arent big, either. They have a lot of 2s and 3s. Considering that they rarely have more than 1 guy on the floor I'd consider a true 4 or 5, yeah they're a "small" team. If not stature wise then style wise. W...

Are you sure? I thought he went from OL to HC when somebody got fired.

Well, I didn't win the powerball on my own tickets. Gotta hope the 205 at work come through now. Nobody won, wow. Up to $1.3 billion. Someone is gonna be in the 3 comma club. http://57.media.tumblr.com/fb1074d69e2c82f7671c39bfa49f38c5/tumblr_no1lzcGMFW1trb5guo1_400.gif Well, it's only about what, $...

I endorse this method. Shame the a-holes who fill out idiotic ballots into at least having to defend their stupid choices.

Not if those 3 all filled their ballot (all 10 votes used) with other reasonable choices.

Even Adnan isn't sure where he was at the time of the murder. If you're talking about something revealed from the Undisclosed odcast you'll have to explain because I've never listened to it. Basically it boils down to most murders being committed by people close to the victim. The ex-boyfriend doin...

The officiating in this Illinois Ohio State game has officially become comical.

How does a 60 year old not sounding like her 20 year old self distract you? Yeah, based on some of the things I'd read before seeing it, I expected her performance to be near bad porn acting, but she was fine. She's 60 something, her voice isn't going to be the same as it was when she was 22, 3 pac...

Probably completely implausible, but I had a brief thought that Ren and Rey could be twins as a nod to the original story. Not sure how that would get explained, but would be an interesting angle.

Sure, why not expect two inexperienced guys to continue to produce at levels in the majors that they never did in the minors. That's the real Cardinal way.

Somewhere like Coors or Petco I could see that as a reasonable approach, but as small as Wrigley is, I don't think that's the way to go.

a local craft beer place put together and sold "beer advent calendars" this year - 24 beers for $80 - and it was awesome. they wrapped up individual beers and labeled numbers on each one. very fun opening them up and seeing what i got. out of the 24 beers (i drank #23 and 24 tonight since...

Look at Soriano's first name in 2013.

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-upcoming-mike-leake-mistake/ He'll eat innings, which is something they're sorely in need of at this point with all the injury question marks they've got. Plus, you would think he'll not see as much of a regression to the mean if the hard contact stays the same ba...

Whoever #58 is, he needs to get off the field. He's been looking around without a clue on at least 2 snaps so far and has been out of position allowing big plays on both.

Since no one else did it.......

Hochman is a native St. Louisan and went to Mizzou, so he's not exactly objective. He's one of them. Bernie Miklasz' piece was much more level headed, which he's always had to be and gotten the hell criticized out of himself for it over the years. Hochman actually replaced him at the Post-Dispatch r...

I kind of believe that they won't chase any of the remaining FAs. I especially don't buy into the Davis hype and would be surprised if they took a chance on Gordon, unless his asking price comes down to 4 years max. I'd bet on a trade for a bat that can play RF or CF (there are CarGo and Blackmon ru...
