@beatingthebook Yankees last 15 games are worst team in the AL…4-11!! Woof! Tied for worst in MLB

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@beatingthebook best Lemke fun fact…most plate appearances in MLB history without being hit by a pitch

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@beatingthebook are you limited at any /most books due to the tennis?

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@beatingthebook Polian is the biggest bleeping loser…. Did he say he had a first round grade on Tom Brady just didn’t draft him?? So either a liar or a bad gm

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@DavidLaurilaQA @Ken_Rosenthal @grok It’s the same thing as with the players…

You owe the fans everything

Zero intrinsic value to the players or the writers writing about said game without the fans

When so many people get enraged by trolls or shit talkers..they forget that isn’t the majority, it’s just X

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@DavidLaurilaQA @Ken_Rosenthal @grok A portion of baseball writers in particular talk down to fans

A larger portion of baseball writers want to have those same fans pay for the paywall

Why would someone pay for something when the person who writes it makes them feel like shit

@paulstonesports @NotTheeWillHill Even worse odds would get a lot of bite on Yes

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@AngryVorosM @tangotiger Implication being when teams have a goal advantage they mostly tend to not be as aggressive on counter attacks?

@SpikeMcGrooder @SandoNFL They’re #1 to me. #1 to @ASchatzNFL w regular season and playoffs both considered. #2 I believe per his analysis if only regular season considered.

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@SandoNFL Need @beatingthebook input…are they in top 5?

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

@andyholloway The best boat company BY FAR is Trilogy Excursions

Bought it all in 98; due to addition on house. Would say that was the tail end of quality long last products.

[Spike @SpikeMcGrooder]

Had the same fridge since 1998. Same secondary Fridge since about 1991. Same furnace since I moved in. Same washer and dryer 1998 until about 2 years ago. Dishwasher went first, about 2021 (also 1998).

My grandpa has had the same washing machine since the 80s. It still works. He’s never had to replace it. Meanwhile, I have to buy a new one every five years.

It’s not just washing machines. It’s everything. Fridges, dishwashers, phones. We used to build things to last. Now we build things to sell.

If they don’t last, what’s the point?

I just want a washing machine that works for 40 years. Is that too much to ask?

Mystic River…classic

[Screenplayed @Screenplayed]

The scene that won Sean Penn an Oscar 🏆

According to director Clint Eastwood, it took six cops to hold Sean Penn back—but after the first take, Clint had to add two more because Penn was fighting so hard.

Today In 1994: Chicago #WhiteSox batter Michael Jordan hits an RBI double during an exhibition game vs. the Chicago #Cubs at Wrigley Field! Harry Caray with the classic call! #MLB #Baseball #History

@nordicfootpod Not sure if I hate anything as much as the Flashscore notification telling me theirs a goal, followed by 3-5 minute later telling me “correction”…anyone who bets overs knows this pain
