    Spoiler tags

    This is a test You can’t do inline spoilers with there spoiler tag on this board. Even if you manually type out the code, it displays like the above example. The spoiler tag breaks the line and puts in the clickable box. MT is looking for something different, I think more like reddit style spoilers.

    I was actually surprised the tickets didn't cost more. We hadn't been to the theatre in forever. The concession prices were criminal though. Two bags of popcorn and two drinks were more $$$ than our two movie tickets

    re: the Dodgers: I suppose I would bet on the under. They will likely be resting guys later in September, so there could be some random losses mixed in the final games. But 110+ wins is totally on the table. I wouldn’t be shocked at all. The Jays picked a great time to get swept by the Angels this weekend…

    Those annoying Yankees even beat the Mets twice earlier this week after getting beat up all weekend by the Jays. Maybe they're finding their way out of their slump now... If I had to put money down on a World Series prediction right now, I'd bet on an NL team to take it. The Braves have come on strong again of late, the Mets have been quality all season (that feels so weird to say ), and of course the Dodgers are still the Dodgers. Anything can happen in a seven game series, but I would be tempted to take any of those squads over the Yankees or Astros. edit: But I'm also hoping for a different AL team to come out of it this year, maybe a bit of a surprise team sort of like the Braves last season. Obviously I'm cheering for the Jays, but it would be cool to see the M's or Guardians take a run at the WS too. That Cleveland team is very pesky and has very good pitching. Just don't let it be the Rays, please.

    Somebody might have already made a plugin to allow for that style of spoiler. If not, I doubt it would be hard to implement. Perhaps even our deadbeat administrator @webhead could handle it!

    At times I’m still so lost in Overlord, too many characters and places to keep up with, but there were a couple interesting developments this week.

    Also, lately Shadows House has been more interesting than ever before. I'm enjoying it quite a bit.

    Big win last night in New York! Berrios had a great start. One or two spots it looked like it could go off the rails, but he self-corrected and got back on track. Seems like he had some extra zip and movement on his fastballs last night. Kikuchi even pitched a clean(ish) inning out of the bullpen. You don't like to see him walk the first guy on four straight balls, but the positives were that he was hitting 97 mph and throwing more pitches in the zone (aside from against the first batter). If he's only throwing one or two innings out of the 'pen, he can pump that fastball, and who cares if he's a bit wild in the zone. 96-97 mph from the left side, with some nice natural movement, is not easy for hitters to handle, even if he misses his spot in the zone. He can shelve a couple of his secondary pitches and just use the fastball and one off-speed pitch. It's just one inning, but it's a good sign, and I hope he can show us more of that.

    That would be great, but I doubt it. Four-gamer coming up against the Jays and they're probably going to come back to life all of a sudden and crush the Jays It's killing me watch the Yankees slump like this and the Jays haven't been able to gain any ground. Imagine if they were going into this weekend series only 4 or 5 games back instead of 10! That would have been exciting, especially since it looked like NYY's division lead was going to be untouchable. The Jays have been borderline unwatchable the last few weeks. August has been an effing nightmare for the most part. Thankfully, Stripling came back from the IL yesterday and gave them an incredible start, and then they strung together some hits and scored some runs, and FINALLY beat the O's. Getting swept by Baltimore at home before travelling to NY would have been soul crushing. If the Jays turn it around and get back on track, back to winning and looking like a good team, then that game yesterday, and Stripling's performance, will have been the turning point. It might have been a very important game for them. The M's are looking like they could run away with the 1st WC spot. They have a fairly soft schedule to finish the season. Their record in July was very good, and they're keeping up the winning ways in August so far.

    The final episode was a great ending (if that is indeed the end..?) The Eraser Drop segment was fantastic stuff

    I finished the first part of the new Bastard!! ONA on Netflix last night. Overall, it was a pretty mixed bag, but I guess I enjoyed it well enough to keep watching it. I think the second part is coming in September. I'm sure I'll end up watching the rest of it, even if it isn't at the top of my watch list...

    Yeah that was huge news last night. He’s saying it was in a medication he took for ringworm… I want to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe, but so many players before Tatis Jr. have come out with ridiculous excuses after positive tests, it’s hard to believe any of it. He’s been working all year to come back from injury. Honestly, I could understand if any player considered taking something to help speed up rehab from injury. Just be honest about it and admit the mistake.

    I liked this week’s episode of Overlord better than the last few. Curious to see how things play out with the Dwarves and Quagoa. Oh, and Ains facing off with Frost Dragons!
