Losing a game at home where your $12 million forward scores a Hattie. Your 2025/26 Winnipeg Jets! Feel the excitement!!!

There are certainly times I’d prefer to be there in person but a lot of times I’m happy to watch at home and avoid the crowds and insane concession prices

Also I did my bedtime stretches in the 2nd intermission which would be awkward to do at the arena not least because the security guards won’t let me bring my yoga strap in.

As always I preferred watching that Jets game at home in my pyjamas and drinking $4 beers instead of being at the arena in hard pants and drinking $16 beers instead

Relief pitchers with weird glasses is one of my favourite playoff baseball tropes.

Pay KFC a commission on hat purchases.

BF and I have been looking at cottages and my question is: Why do so many people invest 6 figures in cosmetic upgrades to cottages on post and pad foundations that are literally sinking unevenly and tearing the cottage apart?

Well at least the Jets will still charge me $15 for a $4 beer at home games

A good republican voting state losing to the ungodly heathens from California? Trump is gonna deport them all.

One thing I love is watching the Jets give up 50% more shots to the visitors and hoping Bucky will save them.

My <14 yo baseball coach would’ve made me do 19,090 pushups on the spot if I didn’t get an out off that grounder. The 1980s had tougher standards

Sweaty translator dude and excessive eye makeup onfield reporter should film a buddy flick

Oh dear Phillies pitcher who can’t field a grounder.

Can someone learn how to defend Rantanen plz? That guy is Jets fan nightmare fuel

Andrew McLaren @drewdles.bsky.social · 3h

Oh right - with no Ehlers no one on the Jets can make an O zone entrance to save their life

Kershaw and playoffs man

Procurement: price is only 15% of our total score.

Consultant: but you give everyone who isn’t demonstrably incompetent the same technical score so price is the only determinative factor.

Procurement: no - it’s only 15%.

Consultant: 🤷🏻‍♂️

Andrew McLaren @drewdles.bsky.social · 2d

This is the correct take.

Shaky bullpen!
Questionable fielding!

Your 2025 Blue Jays!

Catch playoff fever!

Aaron Judge is only 33? I thought he must be in his 40s. What boring personality-free slugger of yesteryear am I confusing him with?
