I am hoping the latter!

Am I missing the part where LA basically had batting practice against MIL and will have been sitting for almost a week, were seeded 3rd and had an overall worse season that last and yet TOR cannot do anything but expect to just show up and be thankful for them to roll over them?

Lefty @happyurbanite.bsky.social · 23h

I'll say. That was just pure pain. ☹️

I know half the broadcasters are awful but is anyone still watching the postgame? I feel so sad for the Mariners. ☹️ I am not sure who but some player was in the background with an aghast yell, Raleigh was crying. They wanted this. I want it for them someday too. It's coming.

I am really happy for my Canadian friends. I LOVE Canada and their kind people. They deserve this.

MVP. 🏅 He's just so damned lovable.

I just love Vladdy Jr. He's amazing.

Lefty @happyurbanite.bsky.social · 1d

I'd have been fine in every other year with Seattle, they really deserve one. But this Jays team is young, raw, and special. They deserve to be WS champions.

Me too! (And I think a lot of other fanbases too!)

Okay Schneider, put whoever the f&*k in who will not allow anything else from Seattle. 6 outs.

My work apps use this (students were affected) and I can barely log into my university website. One platform should not have this much monopoly. When this can affect a large part of the workforce and education sector, it is too big.

Game 7 tomorrow night. ❤️🍁💙

Lefty @happyurbanite.bsky.social · 2d

The Jays are giving a master class in fielding. And it is delightful to see our own Trey Yesavage having such a dominant night. If this is a Jays-Dodgers series I think it will be exciting. The Jays are the ones who have the hitting to overpower the Dodgers pitching. They are gaining momentum.

I just watched the first episode of The Chair Company. It is as if they combined the presence of Michael Scott with the paranoia of Dwight Schrute into one person. It's quite amusing.

Lefty @happyurbanite.bsky.social · 4d

Glad for the Jays to be right back in the middle of this. It would have been nice for Scherzer to show up like that for us, but at least someone else can benefit from his services.

Jimmy Kimmel just had drag queen story hour with Eric Trump's new book. At the end he put it in a shredder. I am sure heads are exploding right now. 🤣🤣

Lefty @happyurbanite.bsky.social · 8d

But this team deserved to win this game on this alone and should be remembered accordingly.
