Ok here I can save this:
drain the coke from a bigger bottle, do the whole straw thing but with longer straws
Melt the ice cream
pour some of the soda back into the bottle, along with the ice cream
drink through the straws, now you have an ice cream float for everyone to share

Well, CGP Grey, would have been rad to see this at any point in lockdown except the Thursday before I march back out into the virus-blasted hellscape and resume full-time work, but good effort.

you either hate the yankees, are a yankees fan, or don't care about baseball
those are the only three choices
I'm a rays fan and live in st. pete so I have to deal with their spring training AND having terrible new york tourists AND having them as division threats
I never thought about that but it's true, temple's the only huge stage I enjoy playing on.

I once met a guy from Jersey who was convinced that the reason the Yankees used to buy talented players and never use them wasn't because they had the money to deny powerful assets to other teams, but because Steinbrenner loved the fans so much and wanted to make sure they had only the best things

also I would like to point out to you that there is a minor league baseball team called the Liberal BeeJays
it is mentioned in this episode of Dorktown and Jon says that name without batting a fucking eye, which is how you know he is a real professional

this same guy was also convinced that the entire rest of the country "loved New Jersey"
think on that
anyway, here are some things not discussed in this Dorktown which I think are interesting about this period of Mariners history:
obviously the secret MVP of the 2001 season is the clubhouse drug dealer, but I'd also like to give a shoutout to M's catcher Dan Wilson, who was a phenomenally good defensive player with a steady bat, and it's really down to the fact that catchers are just generally underappreciated that he isn't talked about more; you really have to be a slugger to get any recognition as a catcher, and that's disappointing to me because it's one of the hardest positions to play well.
Jamie Moyer got a brief mention, which is nice! that guy is my favorite pitcher in M's history. he's the kind I think is most interesting, a technician with extremely fine ball control who uses their fastball like an offspeed pitch.
I believe 2001 was also the season in which Omar Vizquel complained about the huge fuck-off diamond earrings that Arthur Rhodes liked to wear, which is a great story because it highlights both how cool Arthur Rhodes was and what a bunch of fucking pissants baseball players are that they'll look for any excuse to police people's behavior, as well as what a bunch of tinpot cops the officials can be as they tried to force Rhodes to remove them, resulting in a bench-clearer that people still talk about to this day
in case you wondered whether everyone here felt betrayed by A-rod's departure in a way that they hadn't for any other player, ever, the answer is "I will smuggle this bucket of Monopoly money I had printed with Alex Rodriguez's face on it into the stadium and throw it onto the field when he comes up to bat".
The team to hate in the NHL definitely used to be the Red Wings, but they're real pathetic, now. Not sure if anyone's really stepped up lately. I also don't know who it is in the NBA now, since I think the NBA is largely a league you follow for players more than you do for franchises.
I would say that for the NFL, the Patriots are only hated because of the 20-year Brady era, which is finally at an end. The Yankees equivalent in the NFL has to be the Cowboys. They for all the criteria:
- Long time in the league with lots of pre-2000 championships
- Obnoxious and hated owner
- Exhausting fan base
- Self titled America’s Team (blech)

Holy fuck man. Just... what the fuck is this team?!
I don't follow baseball and I suddenly hate the Yankees!
hating the yankess is the correct course of action
Steam: YOU FACE JARAXXUS| Twitch.tv: CainLoveless
Yeah, this is pretty much the first thing that happens to anyone who learns anything about baseball.
Speaking as a person who doesn't know much about baseball, but knows enough to hate the fucking Yankees.
everyone loves ichiro, this is true
those are the only three choices
I'm a rays fan and live in st. pete so I have to deal with their spring training AND having terrible new york tourists AND having them as division threats
my contempt for them could not be greater
Teams you should hate by default:
MLB: Yankees
NFL: Patriots
College basketball: Duke
Marble League/Marbula One: Savage Speeders
I never thought about that but it's true, temple's the only huge stage I enjoy playing on.

Yankees are just goofy over-spenders
I hate the Savage Speeders more than any other team in my life.

God I hate the cardinals.

I mean, I knew the Yankees were evil, but I kinda just go with the flow when it comes to sports.
Now, when I lived up in Northern IL, it was all about Green Bay for some reason - probably hatred of the Bears.
Jay-Z fans.
