Burly should just play these guys by himself.

I see what you did there Bub. Bet he could serve one down the line though, huh? At least you stayed OT.

Lots of good baseball discussion and great points made in this and other “thinking man” threads the last few days.

Looking forward to being your new Shady from now on. Old Shady washed up. Stick a fork in him, he’s done. He was never around anyway. Shady out, Son of Shady in. Just remember to stay on topic. No gangbangers, nitwits, hotshots, creeps or bozos will be tolerated.

Same power play he pulled on Pop-Pop Shady. Just the way I was raised. Ever heard of the “Hillbilly Mafia”?

Clearly the guy you want out there in fifth set, match on the line, against a stout right-handed server with a wicked slice . . .

Great post and insight on hard serving right-hander.
Wally's friend the Red Sox scout says Burly would be a "return machine" . . .

He's like a "prime-Federer."

You are as bad as Shady.

A troll satirically roasting a consistently trolling poster, who you have defended on numerous occasions, is the kind of troll this place needs. You should know better, but you don't.

Sorry Parrot, I may be a bit too positive at times for some on here, but I’ve never, ever started nonsense threads like this guy.

Don’t clean up the hallway. Let the thread tread it’s own water.

I'm an Ex parrot, anny.

That'd be a great response if I had suggested any such thing.

On the other hand, you have, in fact, defended and encouraged the troll this troll is roasting. Again, you should know better, but you don't.

I asked Deep AI to make an image of “baseball player Alec Burleson playing tennis” and this is what I got. Maybe AI isn’t really ready?
