Man is Joe West drunk he works?

One discussion re Ohtani that stays with me- this was sports radio, I don't know who they were talking to- maybe Passan but I couldn't swear by that. Q- so if Ohtani should win MVP bc he is doing something so unusual- pitching and hitting- does that mean he should should MVP for the next 5-7 yrs of his career, assuming he is still doing both reasonably well? A- yes Which seems kind of absurd to me. But I'm still not really worked up about awards, of course I prefer Vladdy but I'm biased. I also care more about team winning.

I'm watching season 2. It really irritates me Tami is all concerned about Santiago having a good place to live and doesn't give a shit about Tim sleeping in his truck and needing help. And he has probably needed help for a long time. One of my irritations for this show across seasons was just the unrelenting misery they out Tim through. Really dislike the whole druggy roommate thing, and when he went to jail for his brother.

I think Ohtani being injured and not pitching the rest of the season may affect his chances. I was sorry when he got injured, never like to see players get injured.

Yes that makes sense to me too, but it seems like Ohtani is a lock so I'm not going to get worked up about it. I think that's as close as I can get to being gracious lol.

I'm a Jays fan but for the record I don't give a fuck who wins MVP. If Ohtani wins it great. It seems to me like a participation trophy for a team that never makes the post season. But good for him I guess. As for Vlad and the Jays- triple crown is a huge accomplishment (if he gets it). Regardless of an award. And I would hope overall they have more on their minds with trying to make the playoffs and do well in the playoffs which is no guarantee. I'm just tired of the media hyping up this Ohtani/Vlad competition. Like whatever man. As a Toronto sports fan I'm used to super pes

@Mittengirl lol. How about one tortoiseshell cat?

@DMK that's impressive. I couldn't do a score card I wish they could just waive innings after a point.

@ebk57 I'm sorry! If it helps I'll be rooting for the Os down the stretch in some of their other series. ETA I keep saying I'm going to stop watching baseball and I keep watching baseball lol. I literally have done nothing all weekend but watch baseball and do jigsaw puzzles while watching baseball. But today I might switch to see the Soxes play.

@ljenkins782 I 100% agree that BS with Rhoda being fat or unattractive was awful. And not that uncommon today. After I posted I paid more attn- I do think overall MTM was superior to other shows of the era like the Bob Newhart show and that extended to the visuals. But I did note in Mary's apt I probably would have changed the sofa and the curtains, from the 70s style to something more modern. It is true the office is drab.

Funny I love the show's visuals. The outfits the women wear are usually great. Mary's apartment is great. I would love to live there. I think occasionally some of the men's suits seem unfashionable. The secondary sets ie Ted's apartment or other secondary character Apts look dated I guess. But those were infrequent sets so they didn't invest too much into them.

Well one issue is they never allowed Springer to heal properly imo and I know from experience if you rush an injury it just doubles the recovery time, and every time you rush it back it prolongs the recovery even further. So for myself I'm not judging him yet, it's a long deal and this yr has not been normal for the Jays by any stretch of the imagination. But I would expect better next yr for sure. But just my opinions.

Also the owners are worth billions. The Jays are valued at over 15 billion, and the owner is a huge telecom company on top of that. More billions.

It's really irritating me the Blue Jays are letting Springer play and he is clearly fucking injured. The dude can't run. He is increasingly in pain just swinging the bat. I thought after yesterday's game they would bench him but nope! I just don't enjoy watching a guy physically deteriorate more and more by the hour.

So I'm still watching the end of 1987...a little deeper into the start of CC and Sophia breaking up. Yes it is completely ridiculous and poorly written. I can't for the life of me figure out Sophia is pissed about. CC is pretty much the way he always is so I dunno why she's so.mad. It's very poorly written, I ff a lot. It's a shame they felt the need to drag Kirk into random storylines. I'm not quite there yet, but looking ahead and the Elena story was great without that, it really detracts from Elena as a psychotic villain. I continue to hate Pamela and not into Shirley Fields
