Well, shucks...

Is Rick Warren going to be the Executive Producer?

I like paprika.

Trout, Rendon, Sandoval, Canning, Upton, Adell, etc.,... they're all at Trout's place playing video games - Ohtani wants in on the action.

How do you see someone "not pitch?"

If only Maddon would miss the rest of the season. and next.

Shocking.

"If you throw it... they will hit it." Did anyone else hear that?

The Angels have barely a kernel of hope in this one.

Huh?

The only stat/fact that really matters is the Angels are 71-74, 10.5 back of a play off spot.

Ugly

That's not a woman.

He's from Georgia... so... it will be the Braves

The Angels are wasting Marsh’s best years.

Nice win. Baseball is unpredictable

At this point, you have to laugh - don't you?

One more thing... @fan_since79, I'm sorry if I offended you. I read somewhere that you're having some health issues. I'm truly sorry to hear that. I hope you manage to get through this. I don't mean any ill will towards you.

I'm probably just as cranky as you are - but I just don't vent as much as you do. The only thing worse than the team playing bad - is being around fans who complain about it all the time. It would be one thing if they were funny or creative in their complaints, but instead we get the same old crap game after game, post after post. I guess I have low tolerance for some of that stuff and even though I shouldn't comment, I do. At the end of the day - most of what I do is in good fun. Don't take me seriously. I actually like your photo trivia posts and a lot of the stuff you used to post.

Last season, I sort of got used to not having baseball and when it came back later in the year - I wasn't as interested. I watched some games, but I wasn't all that invested. Going into this season, I thought that having fans back in the stadium, a full schedule, etc. would bring back my enthusiasm for the game this year. Initially, I watched a lot of games, but as the season has progressed, my interest has dropped off. I thought that I would enjoy having baseball back, but I can't say that it's been all that enjoyable. I have enjoyed watching Ohtani and continue to marvel at the very special and very historical season he's having. Outside of that, there hasn't been much to keep me engaged. Watching games has become less and less of a priority as the season has moved forward. This season has sort of been an unmitigated disaster. I'm not one to sit around and bitch about every little thing. I just think the team is dysfunctional on many levels. It all starts with Arte for me and I don't see the Angels doing anything great while he owns the team. I hope I'm wrong. When I look at Arte, I think to myself - I wouldn't want to work for a guy like that. Maybe that's not fair. I don't know him on a personal level - but the image I have in my mind isn't one of a leader. This team lost its way some how. I think that happened when Mike Scioscia lost his autonomy and ultimately, his job. This team lost its identity. The team's culture has changed. I'll still watch. I'll still look forward to next season. But... putting in the time and effort is becoming less of a priority. I try to find the entertainment value in each game now. That's about it. I feel like I don't know this team any more. Names pop in and out of the lineup so often, it's hard to identify with many of them. I don't know much about them and as a result, I feel less engaged.

That's a question for FS79. C'mon man!
