Zack Greinke had a great time at FanFest.

May the Schwartz be with you
Were the fans late to arrive to this thing too?
Unfortunately I'll be joining the club starting March when I move into an area that doesn't offer TWC. Hopefully not for long. Damn financial problems.
Is there no way for us to watch the games by spoofing our location or using info from the movie Hackers?
I've read upon on him and doesn't surprise me. He seems really shy. I was at Dodgerfest and reporters swarmed him more than any other player.

Thank God. Nice way to end the Superbowl. With a brawl.
At least MLB's brawls are noteworthy. Benches clear, people pile up on each other. Cueto does a Liu Kang impression.

What?
Everyone remembers Zimmer being taken down by Pedro. Or Ryan bitchslapping Ventura.
And for every one of those there are ten bench clearing "brawls" where the teams stand there and watch two guys yell at each other pretending to be held back by a coach.
Does anyone even remember Karim Garcia?

Rizzo vs. Chapman would have been awesome.
Modern day brawls aren't as memorable as they used to be.
Neither are ump - manager arguments, now that I think about it!! Ain't nobody throwing bases around anymore
F this new pussified league!!

Wow what did he think was going to happen slapping him in the back of the head
The aesthetics of the baseball brawl are way better than what we saw last night imo.
There's something to watching players who pretty much never come into physical contact make that first shove or juke, and then break into unprotected boxing or brawling. With the NFL it's like watching a couple of armadillos rolling around on top of each other; no one is going to get knocked out or probably even seriously bruised. Hockey players get this so they take off their helmets and gloves, ready to take more punishment in order to be able to hurt the other guy that much more as well. Plus there's the 'this pretty much looks like the pussified version of the same sport anyway" factor with football.
I'm all about that gentleman's sport turning ugly on a dime and at some small slight.

Nope. We're doomed until people start getting off their ass and make moves to bring it to the entire LA population.
Guess I'll be getting MLB.tv this year and using some location spoofer. Or watch the opposing team feed which I don't want to do. I want the sultry sweet sounds of Vin, Charlie, and Orel.
YAHOO FANTASY BASEBALL IS BACK
Time for the 4th annual NEOGAF Baseball League. Managers from last year need to check their email for the Yahoo invite.
Right now there is one opening in the league, so the first person who PM's me their email can join this league. You'll need a Yahoo account to join the league. There may be more openings depending on how many managers accept their invite back so stay tuned to this MLB thread if you miss out right now.
It's a 14 team, head to head league with a live draft on Thursday April 2nd 8PM ET

The Royals new billboard on I35 south along my drive home:
No problem. Take care.
With that there is now another opening in the league for anybody interested. PM me your email.

.842 OPS as a 19 year old. 10.4 K/9 as a pitcher as a 19 year old. His future is probably as a pitcher, but still!

He has social anxiety disorder. Dude nearly quit a few years back.

I uh.. know about this all too well...
Yep im here. renewing now.
Edit: Ok Fantasy Rejects, league is renewed. THIS TIME WE WILL BE USING OPS INSTEAD OF BATTING AVERAGE.
I meant to change this last year but i forgot and it was too late.
Sanjuro this is your league. You are probably still drunk from last night
Everyone, we cannot let Dominican win this year or Sanjuro. Sox or Yankees fans winning is unacceptable.
I was gunning for two GAF league back-to-back championships last year and Dominican ruined it

Damn been meaning to ask about a GAF fantasy league. I'm definitely down to play if anyone wants to start another one up.
It's my time to shine!
For those asking "Is there room?" Send me a PM so I have a record of your interest and as time draws near, if we have any confirmed non-returners or non-responders I can free up those spots for you. No guarantees, though.
And Fantasy Rejects is not a keeper league, so you won't have to worry about being a new team and not having a stud

What about that Reds-Cards brawl with the spike kicks to the face?
