Lol, I wonder if the shaving cream pie is a thing in Japan.
Also, Felix is such a STUD. I went to bed in the 6th but I knew with the King on the mound, that 2-0 lead might as well have been 20-0. We need four more clones of him. <3

True, I miss Pete and Skip. And non jaded Joe Simpson. Still, after listening to the Yankees game yesterday some, it could always be much worse.

BREWERS WINNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fucking awesome they got the translator also lol
That translator is fucking rad. Dude is hilarious. He was even the first Brewer announced yesterday for Opening Day. It was great. He trotted out with this massive smile on his face just vigorously waving.

Finally. Opening day is here.
Lets go Rays.
Lets go Rays.
There are plenty of tickets available!

Not true!
Rays sold out their home opener. This is the 8th year in a row now with a sold out opener.
So we're already better than the Yankees!
Doesn't Tropicana only hold like 40,000? And the Yankees had 50,000 yesterday. Your math is awful.

They might have announced 50,000 but no way was there anywhere near that many people at the game.
Place was dead. I can still buy tickets on the Rays site!
The tickets were sold. That's what matters.

100% Tickets Sold > Not having a sellout for your home opener.
Officially the Yankees didn't even have a sell out.

The Tampa Bay area has a population of 2.8 million, while NYC alone has over 8 million. All of your maths are awful.
We both know that's bullshit. The VIP seats are out of the price range of 99.9% of fans.
Population is meaningless when talking about 40-50,000 seats. Every city can sell 45,000 tickets.

So he's going to be the guinea pig for Jay Z's management group? What could go wrong?

On the one hand, I hate that the Astros moved to the American league.
On the other hand, I can actually watch them play in person because I now live in Seattle.
It also pisses me off because I bought a lot of Mariners gear two summers ago thinking that they'd be my AL team. I grew rather found of rooting for them too. Now, they are the devil and their children are devilspawn. King Felix is an usurper

You should never compare Jay Z to Master P.....ever!

You need to draw a pentagram using lime, six feet in radius, and place burning candles made with goat marrow at each point of the star. Place all your Mariners swag in the center and light it aflame while praying for forgiveness to each member of the Astros organization, including the players, coaching staff, front office, and trainers. Repeat the incantations until there is nothing left but ashes.
Only then can you root for the Astros.
Casual fans, bandwagon fans, and new fans. Everybody is buying into the Blue Jay hype and it's a team where the entire country is watching. Their winter tour out west had a lot of fans.
Blue Jays used to have a few spring training games in Vancouver. They would have sold out BC Place for some exhibition games this year. Blue Jay fever is a national disease.

I agree. Master P went to college, after all. I don't think Jay Z has the business acumen of a No Limit soldier.

Wonder if Master P's business cards had the same artistic style as his cd covers.
Jay Z being a sports agent is kind of strange. Doesn't he own a professional basketball team? Aren't they always in it together whenever there are lockouts or litigations that impact the entire league? If I was a player, the last person I would want to negotiate my contract is someone who is an owner of a professional sports franchise.
He doesn't own a professional sports franchise, he owns an NBA franchise.

I wonder if his company wont be allowed to represent basketball players since he is a part owner of the Nets. It definitely seems like a conflict of interest.
Just read what agency he bought. They represent a lot of big names in all 4 of the major sports.

jay-z will have to give up hi stake in the nets to rep NBA/college players

Jay-Z's company will be handling more of the marketing side of things I think. Guess CAA will represent Cano until Jay-Z becomes certified agent

Yankess better break the bank for Cano.

Do you know where there are goat farms around here? I need some blood for the pentagram
I think it shows that Cano wants to stay with the Yankees with this move.
They will. Cano isn't the problem, it's all the other stupid money they're spending elsewhere.

i hope the Dump A-rod some how. dude has been nothing but bad since his new contract
Remember when some people thought the Marlins might trade for him? Funny just how ridiculous that looks now (it was ridiculous even then, though).

As much as I think the Yankees represent everything that I hate about baseball, I've got a lot of respect for Cano. He has been fantastic to watch--and won me some fantasy leagues along the way.
GET OUT.

Don't use goat blood unless you want the flesh-hungry souls of the 1969 Seattle Pilots to haunt you for all eternity.

As am I...for different reasons, of course
. I just hope the Indians' starting pitching can at least keep them in the game (or the series, for that matter).I genuinely feel bad for you guys this year. People are going to be talking about this massive choke job when in reality the assembled club simply isn't that good.
Same here. Can't make it down tonight (going tomorrow though) unfortunately, so I hope everyone going later has a great time. Also looking forward to the drunken 500-level fight vids!
It's hard to live up to expectations, but really, how aren't we good? Bullpen's a bit of a question mark (though a healthy Santos helps), but otherwise, it's a finely balanced lineup with solid bench depth and the starting pitching is a lot better than we had last year.
