Fuck the Pirates: Rivalry Thread

[World's #1 Astros Fan]

My best friend lived in Seattle for a couple of years. He eventually moved, in part because he found that Seattle people in general were insufferable hipsters.

My best friend from HS lives in Tacoma. He's still an insufferable hipster.

I think I'm finally old enough, bald enough, and out of touch enough to stop getting confused with hipsters.

Nope.

Ron Santo was from Seattle; Ryne Sandberg is from Spokane; Darwin Barney is from Portland; and Ryan Dempster is from Vancouver, BC. What is our opinion of the Pacific Northwest again?

Seemingly mixed, because we hate at least half of those guys.

Nope.

Sure, compared to you people, I'm still young, vibrant, and cool. But in the real world, I'm actually quite out of touch.

Which one pissed you off most? Be honest.

I'm guessing "liberal."

That's the one.

Illinois is just wrong.

Gay? Who gives a shit? I've been called gay so much at this point that it's about as offensive as being called the wrong first name. The only reason I even got confrontational with that dude was because he wasn't even someone my wife knew, and he was commenting on her page. That feels like a huge breach of basic Facebook etiquette. Even Fork's weirdo right wing friends stick to his status updates, not everyone Fork vaguely knows.

Is this an oxymoron?

I don't think any total stranger rando has ever said anything to me on my own page. That's more of a Twitter thing.

Jung-Ho Kang is being investigated for sexual assault arising from a meeting with a woman in Chicago when the Pirates were playing the Cubs last month.

Both teams will have to get All-Star games for this to go away.

[SKO]

As pointed out on twitter: 74-66 (.529 winning %, same as the WC leading Mets) against everyone else, 3-13 against the Cubs. The Cubs shit all over their great season last year and then have singlehandedly kept them from a third consecutive Seligcard loss.

Starling Marte just got an 80-game suspension for PEDs.

Can Saturday's game be a forfeit?
