HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 oh man this french horn rendition of take me out to the ballgame is just too much. Feel like crying.
Grant77 Old-Timey Member Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 The number will be retired after all Marlins wear 16 tonight in honour of Fernandez.
Terminator Old-Timey Member Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Dee Gordon just hit a leadoff home run and rounded the bases in tears.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 Dee Gordon just hit a leadoff home run and rounded the bases in tears. and I welled up all over again.
fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Dee Gordon just hit a leadoff home run and rounded the bases in tears. You just can't f***ing make this s*** up. Baseball has to be the most fairytale sport there is, look at what happened in Vin Scully's last game! Edit: Side note, did you guys see Barry Bonds? Holy f***, that guy's in better shape than I'll ever be! Edited September 26, 2016 by fatcowxlive
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Just got goosebumps from watching that HR.
Caper Verified Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Dee Gordon just hit a leadoff home run and rounded the bases in tears. An awesome moment. But do you think Colon just grooved one down the pipe for him?
thatoneguy Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 An awesome moment. But do you think Colon just grooved one down the pipe for him? Who cares?
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 An awesome moment. But do you think Colon just grooved one down the pipe for him? Why would he? The Mets are playing for the wild card.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Author Posted September 27, 2016 Dee Gordon just hit a leadoff home run and rounded the bases in tears. Damn, that one got me.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Author Posted September 27, 2016 An awesome moment. But do you think Colon just grooved one down the pipe for him? Absolutely not. The Mets are fighting for a wildcard.
Caper Verified Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Absolutely not. The Mets are fighting for a wildcard. 85 mph right down the pipe?
vdubmvp Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 85 mph right down the pipe? Still no. He gave up another six runs after that, so it's safe to say he just wasn't good tonight and that was one of those special baseball moments.
admin Site Manager Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Damn, that one got me. No kidding.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 You just can't f***ing make this s*** up. Baseball has to be the most fairytale sport there is, look at what happened in Vin Scully's last game! That's baseball for you...and it's what makes baseball the best game on earth. So amazing.
King Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Welp http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/miami-beach/article104261146.html In the hours before his boat crashed violently into a jetty off South Beach on Sunday morning, killing him and two friends, Miami Marlins ace José Fernández purportedly argued with his girlfriend and was seen at a Miami River bar.
baseballsss Verified Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 I'm sure you never did anything stupid in your teens... He probably didn't. To busy getting 50K posts on the old board
burlingtonbandit Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Acooring to Passan's article his friend was urging them not to go out on the boat repeatedly because he thought something bad would happen. f*** that makes it so much more sad.

Pendleton Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 http://i.imgur.com/WH6w4DL.png Oh jeez, this story just keeps getting tougher to swallow. I'm sure it would be of precious little comfort but at least that friend will always know that he tried.

I'm sure it would be of precious little comfort but at least that friend will always know that he tried. His girlfriend might never forgive herself if the story about them having an argument at the bar is true. Assuming, Jose and his friends took the boat out after that altercation just to let off a little steam. Just terrible.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 the whole thing is exceptionally sad.
fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 http://i.imgur.com/WH6w4DL.png Yo what I don't get is the whole "keep Jose cool" text. The caption said something along the lines of begging his friend (not Jose but one do the other 2) not to go as if Jose was pissed and was going to do something out of emotion. I really don't like speculating stuff so I won't guess what happened but this is the 3rd time i see the picture and all 3 times that text jumps out at me. Maybe it's because every time I've a "keep ____ cool" text means I'm not able to come prevent ____ from doing something stupid/reckless so you make sure he doesn't. But maybe I'm misunderstanding.

Yeah that would be so tough to live with, even if it so happened that she really wasn't at fault in terms of causing or starting the argument. I remember at my sister's wedding my aunt advice was that you should never part ways or even go to sleep when you're mad at the one you love, take the time to sort it out. I guess this incredibly sad story is an example of why that holds true.

I guess this incredibly sad story is an example of why that holds true. it's that old proverb of thinking if this is the last time you talk to someone what do you want them to remember. My kids get to hear that I love them almost every time we talk. They are both in their 20s but I still like to end with I love you because you never know...

That's great and hopefully something that is ingrained in them if/when they have kids of their own.
FrozenRopes Verified Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 The Marlins tribute followed by Dee Gordon made every room in my home filled with invisible people cutting onions for almosy 20 minutes.
STLJaysFan Verified Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Colon was down 2-0 in the count to Gordon and didn't want to walk the leadoff hitter who's a stolen base threat, so he gave him something to hit.
HERPDERP Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 So based on the instagram post from the friend of the friend, Jose was pretty mad about something and his friend was going to help him cool down. You must wonder if he went out boating while drunk (they were at a club)
