Never understand why Jesus boy gets special attention

2 national championships and a Heisman will do that.

Plus he's a handsome man.

**BmillsSkier** · 03-10-2020, 10:46 AM

With a handsome wife.

And kids seem to like him, as do marketers.

And I hear he's nice to animals.

Sheep in particular

**BmillsSkier** · 03-10-2020, 11:12 AM

I’ve never read any complaints about him from sheep now that you mention it.

**Timberridge** · 03-10-2020, 11:39 AM

Somewhere in Upstate NY.

Mets AAA coach: "Tebow! What are you doing with that sheep?"

Tim Tebow: "Just helping him over the left field fence, sir!"

Mets AAA coach: "Carry on."

Evan Longoria, former Tampa Bay Ray, on the prospect of playing in empty ballparks: “I mean, I played in some nearly empty ballparks...”

**BmillsSkier** · 03-10-2020, 12:57 PM

The 1983-90 Indians are laughing right there alongside him.

This might be a good year to save a little money on entertainment. On the flip side, we will be a bit more restless, irritable and discontent.

Braves expertly troll Astros by playing Ace of Base’s I Saw The Sign.

Its only going to get better/worse all year
I am sooo looking forward to what Dieter Ruehle, the organist for the Los Angeles Dodgers does for any Astros player @ the all star game "your cheating heart" "lying eyes" etc

**Thaleia** · 03-12-2020, 02:53 PM

Spring training cancelled, opening day delayed two weeks (and likely longer if not the entire season being cancelled).

Fuck, it was a long off-season.

That's great, Braves' organist is the same way. When that Mets pitcher (can't remember his name, maybe Dickey?) who drank his way off the team because "New York had too many temptations" showed up at Suntrust Park to play for I think the Reds, he got blasted with New York, New York, or some similar song every time he came out to pitch. It was awesome.

never been to dodger stadium but sure woulda like to see the away stadium reactions and if the astros just imploded during the season, every park visited was bound to do something.

Just read that Trey Mancini (Orioles OF) had surgery for colon cancer today. 27 years old, wtf.

**Benny Profane** · 03-12-2020, 03:54 PM

Been getting mysterious facebook feeds about his problem for a month. First I heard cancer. That sucks.

First comment under the official statement on twitter:

If Covid-19 was a Houston Astro the MLB wouldn’t have suspended anything.

There is no way they'll extend the season to play all 162 games, right? Just have a short season with 140ish games

when was the last short season, '94?
