  1. It's amazing how much power he can generate with no stride or leg kick. Total old school swing. He just pivots and hits the ball on the screws.
  2. As soon as I saw Altuve walking up to the plate in the top of the 9th, Astros down two runs with two guys on, I turned the TV off. That little shit hitting a 3-run homer was a foregone conclusion and I had no need to watch it happen.
  3. Hopefully they go away again tonight. That team is annoying to watch.
  4. On behalf of the administrators of The Rush Forum, I hereby present the 392nd Solar Federalist badge to NoahLutz... NoahLutz, you have assumed control.... ...of The Rush Forum's Solar Federalist badge no. 392...Congratulations! Also, your badge has been added to the Hallowed Hall, and below is a mini-badge that you can add to your sig, if you wish. Congrats!
  5. https://www.mlb.com/news/2023-playoff-predictions-from-mlb-experts Playoff predictions from back on Oct 7th.
  6. Some busted-ass brackets out there. How many people picked Philly and Arizona for the NLCS?
  7. The Braves were like that back in the '90s and early '00s. Fourteen straight (!!!) division titles, five NL pennants, but only one Series win. I know the Yankees got in their way a lot back then, but that Atlanta team had one of the best pitching staffs in recent memory and they should have won more titles.
  8. Yeah, their only recent Series win was in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, but they did have the best record in the league that year. They were the only team to finish with a winning percentage over .700 (43–17, .717).
  9. I mean, whatever works, but...did it have to be Creed? Yes, Nickelback would have been worse, but not by much.
  10. Impressive showing so far, they swept two good teams, they're scoring a shit-ton of runs, and their much maligned bullpen has been mostly effective. They're not playing a boring style of baseball.
  11. Carter is solid. The kid is not scared of the big moments and he's all business. Impressive for a young rookie. As for the bullpen, hopefully the starters can get to at least the 6th innings, and try to limit Chapman's innings. He's at that point where he's ineffective when he pitches too often.
  12. I've been watching the Rangers all year, they're a fun team. If their bullpen can hang in there they have a shot. Just have to find a way to beat the Houston Asshos should they get that far.
  13. I'm not a drum guy, but it could be a fun experiment. Neil would have those electronic trigger pedals around his kit, and he'd have a tambourine programmed into one of them. You'd hear it in his solo and on Double Agent. You'd be doing the same thing but with an actual tambourine.
  14. Stop this man before he sub-references again.
  15. You want to know if you can mount it to a bass drum pedal? You mean a second pedal that isn't also beating a bass drum?
  16. Nice performance of Natural Science that night.
  17. Is there a video that shows him having the attack onstage? I don't want to see that. Di Meola was one of my later guitar heroes and I hope he recovers and gets back out there.
  18. One of my first baseball memories was watching Graig Nettles play third base for the Yankees, and watching him steal hit after hit from opposing batters, especially during the '78 World Series against the Dodgers. Every time he made an amazing play the camera would cut to Tommy LaSorda in the dugout, spitting and kicking and cursing. Nettles may have won that Series for the Yanks with his glove, and he was my first baseball hero. I asked my dad if Nettles was the best third baseman he'd ever seen, and he said almost, Brooks Robinson was better.
  19. Who can name more like this? This is the only one I can think of.
  20. I'm a bit confused. I thought TRF was designated a Spandau Ballet-free zone. There's a sign right by the door. This is supposed to be a safe space!
  21. Agreed, but at least we got to see and hear several of them on the last tour. I was a little surprised to see him travel with so many vintage collectible instruments.
  22. Wenner fancied himself an intellectual, and liked to bump elbows with influential (white male) musicians whom he also saw as intellectual in order to validate himself. Ironically enough, Geddy, Alex and Neil are/were clearly intellectual (without trying to be) who happen to be white men who wrote intellectual music. You'd think they'd be right up Wenner's alley, but I guess he saw them as math rock nerds and not cool like Springsteen and Jagger. Wenner is a nobody, a smug and bigoted pseudo-intellectual fraud.
  23. You posted that after their 40-0 loss to the Cowboys last Sunday. The "lol" was well deserved, and they carried that ineptitude over to today's game against the Cardinals, going into the room at halftime down 20--0. Imagine having a -60 point differential after only six quarters, with zero points scored? The Giants beat the Cards 31-28.
