ubkev Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 This HR derby is pretty awesome. I like the new format a lot. Quote
Eleven Posted July 14, 2015 Author Report Posted July 14, 2015 This HR derby is pretty awesome. I like the new format a lot. I'm not watching it, but the changes must have been drastic. Because listening to Berman with "back back back back back back" has made for a pretty miserable lifetime of HR derbies. And I actually love Berman. Quote

It's rapid fire. Berman doesn't have time to "back back back back....." They don't get 10 outs anymore,they get 4 minutes. It's pretty cool. Quote

drnkirishone Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 Oh boy, Eleven is grumpy tonight. tonight? Quote
ubkev Posted July 14, 2015 Report Posted July 14, 2015 tonight? Lol Anyway, that was the best derby I've ever seen. That was a lot of fun. Quote
WildCard Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Jesus Christ just play the game. It's literally been an hour of ceremony for the ASG Quote
Eleven Posted July 15, 2015 Author Report Posted July 15, 2015 Jesus Christ just play the ###### game. It's literally been an hour of ceremony for the ASG Every ASG, ever. It is the second-most annoying night in North American sports. The Home Run Derby is first, and the Super Bowl is a distant third. Quote
drnkirishone Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Why does Eleven hate America? he is trying to get his invite to the haters ball Quote
WildCard Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Why does Eleven hate America? Because you touch yourself at night Quote
ubkev Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Because you touch yourself at night Then he will just have to continue. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Why does Eleven hate America? In his defense, all-star games are terrible. Quote
WildCard Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 In his defense, all-star games are terrible. MLB ASG pre-games are terrible, the actual game is very good. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 MLB ASG pre-games are terrible, the actual game is very good. Well, I generally don't care for baseball, so there's that. Quote
WildCard Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Well, I generally don't care for baseball, so there's that. Yeah, that'll pretty much do it :lol: Quote
SwampD Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Every ASG, ever. It is the second-most annoying night in North American sports. The Home Run Derby is first, and the Super Bowl is a distant third. Fourth is a tie between every other baseball game played that year. Quote
ubkev Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) I hate Cross fit with the fire of a thousand suns. Working out is what you do to prepare for a sport. That's not the same thing as being a sport itself. The current "event" on ESPN right now is a 1 mile run, 100 pull ups, 100 push ups and 100 squats. How is that an event? That's just going to the gym. Oh, and these guys can't do pull ups for ! Yeah, it's hard and requires endurance and strength. But I still think it sucks. /end rant. Sorry for offending the cross fitters. Edited July 25, 2015 by ubkev Quote

ubkev Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 Sooooo you hate, I dunno, how much of the summer Olympics? Half? :lol: All of the weightlifting. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 All of the weightlifting. And running and jumping and possibly swimming. Unless, of course, those forms of working out are acceptable as sport :p Quote
ubkev Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 And running and jumping and possibly swimming. Unless, of course, those forms of working out are acceptable as sport :p If the Olympics were on ESPN as much as cross fit, I'd hate more of the events. Quote
ubkev Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 Actually now that I think about it, the only events I make an effort to watch in the summer games are swimming and sprinting and beach volleyball. I'm a winter Olympics kind of guy. Quote
WildCard Posted July 25, 2015 Report Posted July 25, 2015 If the Olympics were on ESPN as much as cross fit, I'd hate more of the events. ESPN has went downhill in the last 5 years or so, IMO Quote
