Things More Futile than Angels getting Wildcard

[Revad]

Ok it’s been Angels futile (which has its own category) for a while now but I like the general direction of the team.  But there are other things:

Afghanistan

Falling in love with someone 20 years younger

Trying to control the weeds in my yard without using poison.

 

Open for suggestions…

The way things are today you just need to finesse the nomenclature to get around any issue.  Weeds are now maintenance-free displacive ground cover.  Now relax, have a beer and enjoy your new status with your neighbors.

IMHO:  A thread never truly ends on AW, ok we get tired and start a new similar one.  Cumulative, they all sort of blend together in some sense.

I agree with this.  This place is like the Jim Rome Show, where it is more about “the Jungle” than it is about sports.  We are more about AngelsWin than we are about the Angels.  Rack me.

True and we often rehash the same shit over and over again like he does. 15 minutes of substance and repeated enough to cover a 3 hour show

I haven’t listened regularly in 30 years, but I am assuming it is the same format.

That does describe the Angels pretty well

"Things more futile than believing the Angels can win the Wild Card" would be using the word correctly.

A headline should be less than eight words for sure.  Journalism 101.

Beating a team worse than us.
