Have you guys in TO eaten at Chickery? It's phenomenal. I have no idea if it's all over Canada or not. I've only seen one in the food court at Mt. Sinai....when we were stuck in sick kids going though some tough times...it was like heaven on a plate
Did we ever get a ruling on MikeM qualifying for ROY? apparently I'm the only one who thought he's been great this past year (and perhaps my support of Magic Mike is approaching some kind of a weird fetish level...)
BBBB's recent activity (and the clear lack of recognition I get from my peers) has made me question why I spend free time surfing this site. I guess its my own fault for not putting him on ignore sooner (he'll now join todd as the only people I have on ignore)
I'm with you Gov. Hop on the train in Barrie, take it to Union, enjoy the City atmosphere for half a day....roof guarantees there a game, make the trip home and back to reality. Works for me
A lot of great ideas.
1. I hate the 100 baseline seats. Remove some and rotate so you're looking towards the infield.
2. Widen the 100 level concourse. I prefer the 200 level simply because there's less congestion.
3. Get the seats up tight with the OF wall somehow....could you move the bullpens to CF? There's so much dead space where the hitters eye is - is there room to put the bullpens at ground level there?
4. Better food.
Nothing original for this guy - but those are my 4 pet peeves.
Does MikeM qualify for best new poster? October 27, 2015 join date. He deserves some props either way. One of my favs. I'll give him my breakout poster vote.

Maybe Doc will come out of retirement in 2018 and pitch for the Jays again - ala Stieb (full disclosure - I had no idea Stieb came back and pitched for the Jays in '98 after 5 years in retirement. That's awesome).
+ Shannon Stewart being traded the previous year. Everyone loved Stewart and hated that move - despite the fact I could throw further than Stewart with my opposite arm. Stewart was done shortly after leaving TO - although I doubt the casuals even noticed.
It will be interesting to see how things work out with EE. I think there's a solid chance the FO did the right thing by letting them both go (in spite of what the fans wanted). I wonder how many casual fans will ever acknowledge this (if it's true).....I suspect only a few will. It's amazing to see how quickly form irreversible opinions.
