Baseball is Better

@jtel14.bsky.social

I love baseball, particularly the Cubs, and pickleball. Luckily, I have a wonderful wife who understands my obsessions. My three kids are great, too.

Shota panders hard too, and I’m here for it.

Yeah, I don’t necessarily like Eduardo Perez. But, you can tell he loves baseball and loves talking about today’s game.

It’s so hard to listen to game in which the analyst openly and unabashedly hates the game you love.

Dan Wilson looks a touch like JK Simmons.

No. It’s impossible to enjoy a game in which the analyst openly and unabashedly hates the game you love.

Highly unusual. They may have tight sphincters.

The Andrew Vaughn storyline is one of my least favorite sports-related ones in this century.

Best ever! He doesn’t even have to look.

Javy Baez is the best tagger in the history of MLB.

Yes to flat soda, but a hard pass to stale Cheetos.

That’s true. Ball State is bad. I could only stomach one half. I was there to watch my daughter march. The foot product was sub optimal.

I like good chaos in the booth. You don’t have a choice when you grow listening to Harry Caray, Jimmy Piersoll, Ron Santo, Steve Stone, Hawk Harrelson and etc.

I’m a Cubs fan who enjoys Kevin Brown. Ben McDonald definitely knows what he’s talking about, and I’m generally fine with him. It just seems like he’s a lot in this series. Doesn’t seem like Jessica Mendoza gets a chance to talk. Of course, three person booths are usually not a good idea.

Yes, I’m a STH. I do it all the time. Drinks just need to be factory sealed. They even let the ice pack go through.

His rug is suboptimal but not as bad as Jim Bowden’s.

This Cubs fan is very grateful for the White Sox. Thank you muchly.

Jerry Seinfeld take notes, please.

I guarantee the Cubs will do it. Kirk was a Cubs fan. Laura won’t be able to stop it.

Geez, ASU is seemingly always involved.

Bad, real bad.

Sorry. If it’s any consolation, I just got it a month ago after 50+ years of staring at it.

Unless you account for the β€œp” in the Padres logo.

It’s good, but as good as your Bumble one.

He’s in, if he gets 500. Playoff heroics and great story help. If he doesn’t get 500, then he’s essentially Dave Kingman.

We’re in a playoff race, and we have to listen to this trite and lame talk about splash hits. No one asked for kayak coverage from Taylor.

Wow! I just remembered that Rollie Fingers was also born on this date.

@dougglanville.bsky.social I’m going to continue my yearly tradition of wishing you a happy birthday while saying thanks a lot for taking all of the athleticism and intellect available on 8/25/1970. Well, at least I was alloted self-deprecation ability.

25.08.2025 20:46 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 2    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 1

Happy Birthday! I’m exactly 9 years older. Shared baseball birthdays include Doug Glanville and Albert Belle. The former is the same age as me to the day.
