    Bader to SF. This offseason blows.
    I’ve never liked the guy but everyone says I will.
    He’s really average.  He had one hot month for the Phils. 
    average is what my Giants do. I mean literally….check their records the past three years.

    How'd everyone do in the Winter Olympics snow boulder event?
    11 yr old got away with cuts and scrapes yesterday.
    The ice was so thick over the snow that many spots there were no footprints.  
    Bummed I missed out on the runs down Blueberry Hill into the Quarry yesterday.  Kid/wife said it was fastest track they have seen there. Watched videos of kids dumping out of sleds and veering off trail, hats and gloves flying.
    Good times, for them.

    Somehow the kids are off school again today. 
    I'm flying but they can't hold school 

    Oh well, good for them.

    I've been stewing on this. Really don't understand it. He totally invigorated the Phillies offense last year and plays a great CF. Didn't you see enough horrible Brandon Marsh CF last year, and enough pathetic Johan Rojas at bats? I don't know if it's sabr crap - no idea. It would be so exciting to watch Bader this year. Now we get Garcia, ready to strike out 200 times for like 17 home runs.

    He did but I saw that as more of a hot stretch and not a long term trend.  And god yes tired of Marsh. Hard to believe he is going to still be here.

    i probably say this every winter but if you are a guy who wear shorts in the winter you're a douche.  saw a guy today in shorts and only a sweatshirt. dude it was 20 degrees with a feel like temperature of like 8.  don't tell me you weren't cold and you don't look cool or tough, you just look like a douche... and I bet $50 that same douche will wear long pants when the temperature is between 40 and 60. i swear i never see guys in shorts when the temperature is between 40 and 60. they only do it when it's really cold. i guess they think it makes them look macho or something but it makes them look like idiots.

    rant over. sorry it just annoys the heck out of me.

    parties are overrated as an adult.  home or a cool neighborhood bar are the only places an older man needs.  in general most people suck so about 98% of them i have no interest in engaging with.  and a guy who wear shorts when it's 20 degrees is part of that 98% :).

    My new car is a fun Acura Integra. I should get an "MFC" license plate for it.

    My new car is a fun Acura Integra. I should get an "MFC" license plate for it.
    Had an early 2000 (think it was 2001) TL for years.  Loved that car, so much. Drove it until I was at 250k miles and had to get rid of it.  When I went to buy a new one, the price had skyrocketed.

    PRL1JAM is my plate.

    On the day i purchased i loaded in the first 6 PJ cds - Yield of course was one or them. I never changed them until I took the discs out when I sold it.

    Enjoy the Acura.  Wish I could buy a used one in the same setup as mine, with few miles on it.
    Great car.

     Based on that article by Matt Gelb I'd sure say so, and it basically confirmed everything I already thought of the guy.
