I tolerate the masks but only wear them for fear of being ostracized.

Pretty much this.  It seems like every store I go into has a sign that says masks are required but there's always a few people not wearing them.  Honestly doesn't bother me I just don't want to deal with someone who feels strong about wearing them.  Considering how many people seem to think we shouldn't be opening up even though many couldn't tell you under what situation we should the issue of wearing a mask isn't one I want to make into a bigger deal than it needs to be.  If our new normal is requiring masks when entering a store/retailer/whatever then that's the least of our issues going forward.

Agree with this. I do have to laugh at the logic of those I see wearing their mask in their own cars with their windows down. That is just sad, honestly.

It’s going to get worse. The passionate left hates the passionate right and vice versa. It’s retarded

This is most annoying thing about politics and why it's a fucking crock. These politicians and those who are disturbingly involved in politics are just fighting to screw each other over as opposed to doing what's best for the country. It's probably always been like this, I don't know, since I mostly never paid attention to any of it until the past few years. But as you get older it just kind of comes into your life and it's pretty fucking stupid. The government will continue to bicker with each other and try to screw each other over while they play with the money that the tax payers give them. And then they'll screw us over with their dumb ass decisions as well. The left can suck a fatty and so can the right. Divisive mentality bull shit.

Net...

Just ordered a golf net since most ranges are closed. Might as well get a bit better at golf while we can’t really go anywhere.

With the work shut downs, I pretty much was playing daily at two courses in Riverside since the whole shut down of courses happened. They have holes around neighborhoods so it’s easy to just walk on, play, and get through with no issues. No one else around. Obviously they reopened again but I got over a month of pretty much every day, free golf. My game has improved hugely in just that time. I bought new Callaway Apex 19 irons and I injured my oblique area right after I got them. lol I don’t regret any of it.

Exactly what's funny about it?  Seriously asking.

The part where he said that posters get emotionally high jacked while talking about Pujols. Coming from Stradling, that just makes me laugh.

Josh Hamilton is a piece of shit. That's actually putting it pretty nicely.

I think it is funny we still have people that get emotionally high jacked over Albert.  It says much more about the fan than the performance of the player.  Sure it is time to move on, but the only way that happens is to develop someone that is better at this time.  You can't go out and trade for an upgrade because you aren't giving up prospects for an affordable 1st baseman.  You aren't giving up prospects for an expensive 1st baseman either because they will still be paying Albert and payroll flexibility is important.  So if we want Albert gone next year then Thais will have to outperform him.  I absolutely believe he can, but they probably won't release Albert to guarantee a guy like Thais playing time.  

I think this is funny.

This virus will only give him more time for his legs to heal. He will come back better and stronger than ever and may even be in the best shape of his life.

Just ordered an indoor/outdoor practice net for the backyard. Be here in about a week. Even come with a practice mat with three different types of grass to hit off.

Link?

I just ordered some plastic golf balls from amazon last night. I have my own driving range tee so I think I’m going to try practicing in my backyard. May even buy a practice mat.

I'm tempted to do the same.

Looks like now golf courses are closing. This is so fucked. 

GFY

Did you get the chips?

I did... needed that cash back.

Lmfao

The toilet paper thing is ridiculous. Buy what you need and save stuff for the people that need it. People are stocking like grocery stores are going to be closed for 3 years and it's absurd. People are fucking bozos. I saw a damn bozo with three shopping carts today fighting with a person who wanted one of his. I just went in to buy some damn chips to get some cash back for some devils lettuce and it was a shit storm. People need to calm the fuck down because going insane isn't helping anybody. Grocery stores and water will remain running. Mostly everything else will probably be closed at some point. People are ruining things for others who actually need them.

I think it's a good idea to stay in for the most part, for the safety of others who are older, but on Sunday I'm golfing.

I’m going to be as polite and yet blunt as possible.  I’ve met some of you.  I’ve seen many of you at AW events and in photos.  If “virgin” had been added to the list of pre-existing conditions I’d be terrified this thing was specifically tailored to destroy this website.  

Holy shit. That is funny.

You get a star.

It comes and goes. Season hasn't started yet so I am less emotionally invested. Once the season starts it'll be back to doom and gloom more than likely. Hopefully not. Bummed this happened to Canning and hoping for the best. The Angels definitely need him to have a good season. 

Haha yea I feel yea. It’s just hard to be positive already. We all wanted Canning to do well. I’m thinking this is going to lead to TJ and at this point his career is a huge concern for me.

I’m assuming by dumb shit on the side you’re referring to the biological injections?  

No I am talking about more Pujols at first base type deal.

Yes he very well could soon.  I’m not sure how the Angels can help facilitate the tear while being true to the players well being at the same time.  

They can’t do shit. But we will all watch another pitcher go through tommy john while the angels do other dumb shit on the side.

What the fuck are you talking about?   My only point is I’ve never heard of stem cell, I’ve heard of the platelet rich injections, most of us have never heard of biological injections.  As far as the Angels being idiots, he doesn’t have a tear.  I’m unaware of any pitcher ever having TJ surgery without a tear.  If it’s happened, you’d assume it would be an Angel due to our frequency of pitchers having it.  If you’ve seen a case of a pitcher having TJ without it share and educate me.  Thanks. 

I don’t know. I just say things. He doesn’t have a tear. He will soon... I think we both know it. Maybe not.

oh, and the angels being idiots comment has nothing to do with this. I don’t care if he has normal wear and tear right now. The point is it’s going to tear. The angels are idiots for other reasons and sadly, it’s pretty self explanatory.

they cheated against themselves. That’s one reason of many. But hey, we’re all still here ... just like you.

People don’t have TJ surgery if there is no tear.  He doesn’t have a tear.  

No one said he did. But the reality is, he will be most likely be worthless for a year and a half. So tear or not... yea, worthless.... and that’s really all that matters to me.

Here. Just because something happens to another pitcher or player doesn’t mean it’ll happen to the next. Each players injury is unique. If this helps Canning and it doesn’t send him to the chopping block what’s it hurt? And if he eventually has to get the TJ surgery well then that stinks. But if I was Canning I’d want to do everything in my power and then some before going under the knife. These are still human beings and he’s still young. Never know what can happen. 

I like you better when you act naturally and piss off people.

Pretty sure it wasn’t called Biological Injections with any of them.  

What’s funny is I expected a post in return from you. Dude.. angels are idiots sometimes man..it’s ok, really.. but yea... anyway, his arm will fall off. Biological or not. I think we all know it. Stop acting like you don’t.
