Stupid old guy take: even if I found a lot of it tedious and didn't pay much attention, I kinda liked when pregame shows that lasted more than 5-6 minutes used to be a thing
I would have rather the Padres been sellers

I love our adorable little second baseman
They're using CGI to superimpose ads encouraging San Diegans to "Let's Texas" behind home - regardless of how we feel about "Texas" as a verb, how many Californians at this particular juncture are likely to find that plea appealing?
Marquez loves me and knows I want to keep my run differential joke going
Wife: found this, don't know where or why but figured you'd like it. Yes, yes I do...
Please show me more hand egg commercials, this is what I tune into baseball to watch
Dumped no bad contracts (not that it was going to happen), sold off no rentals, further depleted the farm (marginally), "ace" opens with a 30+ pitch first, dropped a game against the team you're chasing. Is that good?
Holy shit this is like the list of Browns starting QBs since 1999 but for sex criminals.

I'm having baseball fun. Yeah.
I know everyone loves to hate on Don for weight-shaming Mud, but have you considered we should also be seriously questioning his habit of fishing in the bay?

Never credit personal accomplishment to that which could be considered the incompetence of your opponent. This is a Padres post.
@dsmithshow.bsky.social Buehler, King, fuck everything
I love to Remember Guys, but I'm also good at forgetting them. When wife asked me "why is Luis Rengifo?" it took 30 seconds to respond "because Laureano broken." Then 2 minutes later I forgot Ramon Laureano.
Rigging some sort of powerful IED into my chainstays so that hitting me becomes an act of mutually assured destruction...
Robert Evans (the Only Robert Evans)@iwriteok.bsky.social · 2w agoWe need a non-racist equivalent to the South African arms race for vehicular defenses, focused entirely around allowing cyclists to kill and maim drivers too.
I have been a San Diegan for nearly half a century. And yet, for some reason, I still watch sports.
Trade Proposal Canada receives: California, Oregon, Washington US Receives: Alberta, Sunnyvale Trailer Park (unless that's already part of Alberta, but I don't think so?)
The Breakdown AB@thebreakdownab.bsky.social · 2w ago“Alberta will also need its own military,” Modry said, adding: “And would the U.S. be willing to work with Alberta in the development of an Alberta military? That’s on the table for discussion.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...
it's funny how in political terms this feels like when steph tries one almost at half court but in moral terms it's like a layup on a hoop lowered and widened to 5 feet

This year's MLB All-Star Game MVP is going to every person who actually watched that game on TV.
Holy shit Manny! ...wait, Manny doesn't do that kind of thing anymore! ... Holy shit Song!
I really don't want to see how close Bogey was to home when Manny elected not to try one last dodge in the pickle...
What do you call it when both pitchers are intent on shooting themselves in the dick
Anyone (meaning: a Padres fan who'll actually use them) want a couple of free tickets to sit on the roof tomorrow night? I somehow have 4 games this week and that is far too many for my mental stability...
Biannual reminder from Rondog that if you blow up fireworks in a residential neighborhood where your neighbors have pets, you're a fucking asshole.
