And a durn good smoker like all old Comoy's firsts and seconds are.That...is a pipe!
Funny you should say that, I've been trying to identify a pipe. Would you take a look in "Longshot" thread and give me your feedback?And a durn good smoker like all old Comoy's firsts and seconds are.
They haven't been playing smart for several weeks. Too many homer happy swings, too many starting pitcher problems, and a vastly overrated bullpen. They have replied too much on magic, too much entitlement, no urgency, and not enough on game skills since early September.Wrapping up hump day with Pembroke in a Pete.

Agreed they've haven't played well since they clinched. Edit: Pitching allowed 6 homers in a playoff!?!They haven't been playing smart for several weeks. Too many homer happy swings, too many starting pitcher problems, and a vastly overrated bullpen. They have replied too much on magic and not enough on game skills since early September.
There's nothing worse than complacency and self entitlement. And the GM did an incredibly weak job on getting the bullpen help that they needed at the trade deadline. And I would have not started Elder tonight. I told m'lady he wouldn't get past the 4th inning before the game started.Agreed they've haven't played well since they clinched.
He shouldn't have been in the game period but definitely should have been yanked sooner!There's nothing worse than complacency and self entitlement.

Ummm. What's a "straight bent"? Ya lost me.Dunbar in aView attachment 252605 straight Bent. I stood up to take the picture just for a change in perspective and background; I hope the effort is appreciated. I'm going to sit back down now.
Very true. And all these homer happy swings at bad pitches has haunted this team every since they started getting closer to the all time season record. Olson only hit two homers the last month after a great season. Arcia, and both catchers haven't hit since the All Star game. Rosario has been very streaky. Murphy's catching skills declined, too. Have you noticed he hasn't caught a lot of games the past three weeks? Outside of Albies, Acuna, Ozuna, Riley, and a few pitchers, most of the Braves are not hungry to win, and every one of the Phillies are.He shouldn't have been in the game period but definitely should have been yanked sooner!
It's similar to a bent straight.Ummm. What's a "straight bent"? Ya lost me.
Yep sums it up. Sad to see for such a good team.Very true. And all these homer happy swings at bad pitches has haunted this team every since they started getting closer to the all time season record.

That was rough. I just quit watching.Wrapping up hump day with Pembroke in a Pete. Watching the Braves get smoked.View attachment 252684
Congrats!My new Piersel arrived today!
(I justified this purchase because Veterans Affairs raised my pension last month, back-dated three years! Congratulations to me! How could I not buy myself something sweet? My first Piersel was purchased on store credit from SP. Now I've got a nice pair.)
Breaking it in with some Pegasus.
