If the Indians win, they clinch the season series.
>tiggers
it literally hasn't rained here yet again. it's like something keeps blocking it from ever raining
>>69254305
Definitely.
Why does Cleveland not want to play America's pastime on America's birthday? Why does Ohio hate America?
>>69254539

>>69254635
At least we can afford the fireworks. And drinking water.

>>69254748
>Which place hates baseball
The team that refuses to play ball because it's cloudy out.
Did George Washington give up at Valley Forge when it was cloudy out? No, no he most certainly didn't.
>>69254788
>Implying Washington didn't wait for the most opportune moments to strike
You know who didn't wait? Benedict Arnold.
Check. Mate.
>>69254813
You're right, Benedict Arnold didn't wait to betray America. We agree, the Indians are the Benedict Arnold of baseball.

Thanks for ruining the 4th of July Cleveland.

What kind of ethnic is that? Paki..?
>>69254846
>You're right, Benedict Arnold didn't wait to betray America.
But he was in the Continental Army during the war, Detoilet. Just like Arnold, the moment the going gets tough they get pissy and defect. Perfect representation of Tigers.
>>69254934
>Implying you're not being done a favor by God not having to watch your team get swept again
So it's just another day in Detroit, no problem mate
>>69254980

>>69254996
Cleveland fans are awfully arrogant after being good for 3 months
>>69255041
Detroit fans are awfully arrogant after being good for a week and being 0-9 against Cleveland.

No one asked you to start. Last time there was a game thread it was civil, I'd like to see that again if that's fine with you.
Apparently weather.com is a lying whore
>>69255262
Me too so let's not talk shit about people's lives worsening because politicians are scum of the earth
what kind of cuck would go on the bachelorette she probably sleeps with half the guys on the show before it's done what a dumb program
>>69255327
On this, we can agree on. I take no kind of stock in the Flint situation, it's sickening.
I literally do not understand why that asshole and his administration are allowed to be out of jail/alive except >capitalism >politics.
>>69255352
>On this, we can agree on
Fuck my life. WHEN DOES THIS GAME START
I'm bored there's nothing on TV and my internet is sucking ass come on already
>>69255298
It isn't. Cleveland just doesn't want to play because their bullpen is fucked.
>>69255352
I never understood why flint's politicians never got blame for anything but I may not know 100% of the story. Just kinda sucks they want to save $$ more than worry about the health of citizens.
Anyway politics is boring. Let's talk about July 4th. What you guys do today?
>>69254776
>>69255414
We did our party stuff on Saturday and Sunday, today was basically just lounging around.
>based holiday pay
I miss Joba
>>69255406
Evidently they don't want to take it off just to put it back on and get the starters cold. Which makes sense. Except for all the times they play in fucking deluges.
KC tied it up
>>69255521
Smart.
Looks like Fulmer pitches Wednesday. Should be interesting since he's been very good this season, though apparently Indians have decent numbers on him. Funny I don't remember him at all.
>>69255656
I thought we haven't faced him this year. I swear I checked last series and he hadn't
>2 hour rain delay
>>69255677
Oh right, we faced him on his second, I think, start and gave him a loss.
>>69255737
Think I'm just gonna go do something else and forget about the game for the night. Sick of waiting

Go on winning streaks and then losing streaks. Would have a great record if we could have just won 4-5 of the Cleveland games. Pretty good season so far honestly considering JD has been hurt and others have been injured here and there
>>69255933
GSW have no bench and a small lineup, remember Bogut was the x-factor in these last finals, they were BTFO once he went down and now he's gone. Unless they add another legit center, they aren't beating the Cavs.
>>69255823
He was a pretty shit president desu
>>69255933
I don't know man, I'm still in 150% Believe mode after LeGod did it.
I objectively think Cavs can repeat, Durant moving to Dubs is not only bad Meme magic but it's not a good fit and weakens their already exposed defense. Plus they're shook as fuck. At any rate, they won't win another* Hip.

>>69256257
Yeah but Cleveland can also pick him up on waivers, and then send him to the minors.
>>69256257
He better not come back here.
>>69256153
>swapping the Joe Louis arena with a place named after the shittiest pizza chain
This is some next level spaghetti spilling
>>69256280
I think he has to clear 29 other teams first, then he decides whether to go to the minors or be granted his release.
>>69256278

We all know the real rivalry is just OSU/Michigan though and always will be. MSU is just both of our little brothers to pick on and laugh at together.
>>69256889
Ever since Hart said that we have owned their asses.
>>69256889

Feels good, cucked teams whose biggest rival isn't theres in return is the worst. The Browns/Steelers can be argued as well as Cavs/Bulls, but Indians/Tigers is the only sure mutual number one top rivalry
Gomes always kills those situations he NEEDS to stop batting 7th
Well at least they got ONE, fucking bums
>>69257204
As a Browns fan I don't even consider the Steelers a rival, they just kick our ass but that's it. I however will forever hate Baltiniggers for how they robbed us of a team.

It's fun. I think it was more of a big deal back in the 90s, you hardly hear about it anymore around here. The last mention of it I saw in public was some terrible poster for Major League 2 hanging by a Denny's front door. It's probably been there for 20 years.

He has a lot of potential but has been injured a few times, meaning he will probably suck balls. We got him in a trade for David Price, who is a well established ace.
