Filled with contempt for the rest of humanity?
Sounds right.

What’s especially wild is he can snap back anytime he wants, like in Paterno, Insomnia, and The Insider.
The man might be in the top-10 Yankees of all time. He’s not even in the top-20 short stops of all time. And short stop isn’t left field. You gotta have some chops for to play 5
Don’t get me wrong I HATED him. But that motherfucker found a way. He was undeniable, and that must be a part of his story, especially his HOf story
And honestly just famous throws across his body were because he was too slow to set his feet. Which, FINE!
And it’s one that’s easily displaced by statical analysis. For instance his field rate, especially to his left. He could not get to balls on the 2nd base side.
I totally agree that’s on the sportswriters. I absolutely do and i think there’s an argument for changing that system. But I also think when we are debating things like “greatest” we’re living in a subjective space.
I think saying “he’s the 7th or 8th greatest Yankee” is a far cry from saying he’s overrated. That’s an amazing list!
I wouldn’t say “overrated”, I don’t think. He was undeniably great. I’d probably say his greatness is “overstated.” Dude got more HOF votes than 4 of the other guys above him on that hit list. That’s bizarre.
I’ve said it a million times but, if Jeter were on any other team he’d be Craig Biggio. Who was great! Whereas Mariano…best ever at his position and it’s not particularly close.
(Speaking as a Red Sox fan) I gotta put Mariano above Jeter/Reggie. He’s simply the greatest to ever do what he did, while Jeter wasn’t even the best shortstop on his own team 1/2 his career.
The sandwich culture in Philly is simply unmatched. It’s what New Haven is to pizza.
It’s funny that he thinks it’s the radical left that would be upset by this.
Healers. No question, Healers.
Uhm nope. Under the direction of the President of the United States, Commander-In-Chief of the US Fucking Military
“You really need to be careful when speaking on matters of pitching” I say to Greg Maddux.
Like are you mad? Do you see how that sounds?
I’m a practicing atheist and it wouldn’t even occur to me to but 10 toes in the ground and tell the fucking Pope to be “careful when speaking on matters of theology.” That’s a cosmic level of arrogance. Cosmic.
I need this to be real. Please let this be real.
This is basically how my day is going today
Amazing stuff. He just cost her hundreds of thousands of dollars. Which, also, good!
Yeah I don’t really disagree with that. I think maybe the point is that winning at the ballot box will be more challenging if the voters aren’t convinced you’re really up for the fight. Or, at least that’s a possibility worth considering.
I think, possibly, the value is political, even electoral. Impeachment is a political tool, even in failure. It’s hard to argue you’re fighting the most corrupt administration ever when you won’t avail yourself of the very tool designed to combat that corruption.
Me when I was getting rinsed in Super Mario Bros
The only thing I know for sure right now is the absolutely NO ONE seems to know or agree what’s in the cease-fire agreement, and that can’t possibly be a good thing.
We have a phrase for this
Oh 💯. Has to be Philly.
In the US it’s probably Mobile, AL. Outside the country, I’d probably move the Cologne tomorrow if I could.
Great town. Crown jewel.
