John Schneider says he did bring his other hats, not just the white panel Jays hat

Good news everyone! I saw a blue jay in my backyard, which isn't common and I am taking as a sign

I can already picture all the stupid, stupid complaints from gamers that would be amplified by the right wing social media guys

American conservatives would have been OUTRAGED if they had to play as a black person and fight the KKK

America is too fractured to agree that slavery was bad

Ubisoft canceled an 'Assassin's Creed' game set after the Civil War

• Featured a Black Assassin who was formerly a slave

I'm not feeling very good about the Blue Jays tonight. Yesterday's optimism has died

I know the new one is a black and silver version. But it's bad. Just wear purple and yellow already.

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

The Kings have these (as well as the yellow ones and the other variations of this design) and they don't wear them.
That should be a crime.

The /LAKings surprised us with a new uni for tonight's game! 🤴

Thoughts?

I don't agree. But.... maybe?

Incredibly controversial idea:
The Jays didn't play like themselves tonight. So many errors and screw ups.

So.... the all blue hats tomorrow?

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

This is a bad idea and I know it won't happen. But whatever....

Start Yesavage in game four.

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

Honestly, I think the Jays lose tomorrow too. Cam Schlittler is too good. They'll win in 5 in Toronto.

If you drink every time you hear "bullpen game" you'll be dead before the sun rises tomorrow

Worst drinking game *ever*.

Well, that sucked. But it’s one game and we still only need one to advance. Tomorrow it is, then.

How many times will we hear "bullpen game" in the next 24 hours?

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

Why would you pay money and go to a game and then leave before your team wins?

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

Springer has also sucked tonight.
It just wasn't their night.

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 18h

Well, at least it's Springer, Lukes, Guerrero (and hopefully Kirk) up next....

Rick City @rickcity.bsky.social · 19h

Why are they singing "Living on a Prayer?"

They're not halfway there in any sense. The game isn't half over and they haven't won half the games they need to win this series or in the playoffs...

They did it to themselves, they did.
And that's what really hurts.

Sportsnet keeps putting Mitch Marner in commercials.

Who is asking to see more of Mitch Marner???

Okay NOW you can worry.
The Jays sucked tonight.

Barger is up. He's somehow going to score a run for the Yankees.
