Someone trying to get back in the group chat @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social

Didn’t chime in yesterday, but can’t wait for Shea to deservedly win the Silver Slugger Award for American League Catchers. #Athletics

Listen, I’m not sure when Kisha gets home, but I know the 12 hr clock will start ticking (probably today) and those last two hours of details are what makes all the difference. Get those military corner sheet tuck ins for extra points.

And somehow the Astrodome is still standing

Flying home during Game 7 is gonna be fun.

What’s a thing you thought for too long as a kid? Me, until I was 14, I thought this road sign meant “Watch for birds” because in my brain it was a representation of Woodstock from Peanuts wearing a a fedora. And obviously everyone knew the peanuts side characters, side characters like I did.

I am with family and did not watch the Dodgers game last night. Ohtani is very good. But I can’t imagine how stressful it is for Dodgers fans when the bullpen comes in and everything is hard hit and it feels like it’s all going to….just kidding these guys are insane and going to crush the AL.

I’m not sure who said it first but let history show @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social and I were the first two to applaud and predict this, sometime in April I believe!

The Dodgers decided to Moneyball baseball by getting pitchers who could go 8 or 9 innings without giving up runs and that is impressive “haha, none of you idiots thought of that” move by them.

Wrote a funny 99 reasons that Houston is Better than Dallas before a Texans/Cowboys game and the next year the Dynamo (soccer) made a video to hype up their game against FC Frisco (Dallas) and used my 12 best jokes! No credit. Until I called and was like. Da Fauq?!

Well Fred Warner smiling as he leaves the field with a gruesome injury…I love him. Can I send soup!? How can I help him heal?

Found a box of memorabilia. This Oakland A’s season finale at home 1991. Who is this?

The oneders!

I said this 3 times: “That’s an out in Oakland”

It’s 9:10pm in a game 5, why would anyone leave?

Really proud of Bizzaro Luzardo in the top of the 12th for the Ms

AJP loves fastballs. Is it cause he couldn’t hit them? He only called them? I can’t figure it out

Gonna Betty White me at least once here soon.

I see I am in the top 95% of elevated humans having 30ish routinely

Wild to see all the Cubs fans in layers while I just walked out side and it was 91 degrees.

I’m just a kid who grew up in Country music, fell in love with punk and California hip hop, found comedy music, then obsessed over pop-rock, had kids, found country again, and Taylor Swift and now listens to the weirdest playlist you’ve ever fucking seen.

I come to blusky for my friends’ top tier analysis.

Always a delightful read and insightful, and ya boy (did I do that right @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social?) got a screenshot in there. Also no I’m in my head creating a world where all the blusky crew on here are muppets. And that’s fun.

1992 ALCS, Ms. Sekera, Game 5, “You can go lunch or you can eat your lunch in the classroom and watch the game with me” You better believe my 9 year old butt stayed in with the teacher with the beautiful wavy hair and Kelly green A’s shirt on. She left the TV on on mute the rest of the day.

I out loud chuckled

MLB Rookies With 1.000+ OPS and 480+ PAs: Ted Williams (1939) Albert Pujols (2001) Ryan Braun (2007) Aaron Judge (2017) Nick Kurtz (2025) 👀

The A’s didn’t win their last 30 games to make the playoffs so I’m rooting in this order: 12: Dodgers 11: Yankees 10: Cubs 9: Tigers 8: Padres 7: Mariners 6: Red Sox 5: Reds 4: Guardians 3: Reds 2: Blue Jays 1: Phillies

But is @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social on his plane yet?

Cough @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social Cough @russsayin.bsky.social It always comes up Foxx

Obviously not ready for hockey season, because I expected this to be a quote skeet of @mattlanza.bsky.social for some reason.

Boo this man. BOO THIS MAN #athletics

Because @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social obviously wants the inside edge in the podcast episode(s) we do on this We’ll start with Game: A clear winner and loser by objective scoring system but does not necessarily require any sort of physicality or athletic superiority This is: 🎳 🎯 ♟️

One of my long standing triggers for people are my splits of Sport Athletic Competition Game Athletic Event

Terrance Long saying his sons wear him out about the Ichiro throw is GREAT. #athletics

Nothing better than spamming @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social about the tv broadcast when he’s not actually watching cause 1. Busy walking MDD, 2. Cleaning up an unrespected dinner 3. At the game

STICK!!!! #athletics I just woke a kid up yelling at a game that literally means nothing. @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social

But one has a big ass!

The #athletics have a -80 run differential in series finales going into today’s game. They are gonna end today -90ish, with the season finale Sunday. I don’t think they are gonna make this up. (21-30 record in those games) outscored 244-83 in the losses.

I’m not saying I had something to do with this, but I’m also not not saying that @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social

I can’t wait for a Dec. 12 text discussion about who should come in in the 6th to get us to our 7-8-9 guys. Nothing says holiday season like middle relief debates

Got a paper ticket at a Rockies game 2 years ago. It’s still in my hat.

Were you holding signs that said “I’m with gross” that were pointing to the pickles?

A fantastic throwback here. And a great way to ask this question I’ve been bringing up to everyone I can the last week: What is the greatest real song by a fake band? (A truly great song created for tv/movie to be played by a fictional band/artist)

This is the same child I tried to trade (along with two of my own) for @thatbootlegguy.bsky.social’s black hole of a stomach son earlier in the season, only to have the trade vetoed by the team president (her mom, my wife). I think the SD would have won the trade. And probably gained better music

18 y/o step daughter wants records, like vinyl records, for her 19th birthday. Me being the great bonus dad I am rolled up to the craft shop today because there is a difference in what Vinyl is but not in the spelling. So when I put “vinyl store near me” in my phone I went to the closest place. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I would not be upset if we help do that this week.

Too verify that, let me go find the screenshots where you were talking me off the ledge about how this was affecting every part of his game to have to make the utterly stupid move…

Just spent 5 minutes explaining to my 15y/o step daughter who just learned baseball existed 5 years ago when I met her mom why it’s so bad that the #athletics are playing so well.

I don’t know how two men so similar physically also can be so similar mentally. It’s wild. But here Aaron and I are just living the same life one of us sweating more.
