Astros at Angels 12 July, '22

[jnh]

Felt a little like those recent KC games.

[JohnS (John R. Schieffer)]

That win was uglier than homemade soup, but a W is a W, and I’ll take it especially against the silly Anaheim, or Chino Hills, or Long Beach, or Anaheim Hills, or LA, or Orange, or Newport Beach, or whatever the flying fuck that glorified minor league franchise in OC goes by,
In my 4.5 yrs living in SoCal, it became abundantly clear that the halos were the LA Clippers of beisbol in SoCal, bless their hearts, and while they’re not nearly as bad as hated fucking dojers fans, halos fans have as much baseball knowledge and self awareness as a dog licking its taint in public.

Well done, Astros.

[JimR (Coach)]

JJ ain’t ready, sad to say, and maybe Click can find us a LH hitter for the bench.

@JohnS

That win was uglier than homemade soup

This expression makes no sense to me. Homemade soups are awesome.

[JimR (Coach)]

My grandmother’s saying was “Uglier than homemade soap.”

[MusicMan (Michael Shopoff)]

Now THAT makes sense.

I default to “hit every branch of the ugly tree”.

My grandmother’s saying was “Uglier than homemade soap.”

Mine’s was “uglier’n a mud fence”.

[Idstrosfan (Jim Sheridan)]

I feel like an Eleanor Roosevelt reference belongs here somewhere.

[Col.SphinxDrummond]

So ugly the tide wouldn’t go out with her.

[JimR (Coach)]

Classic line. I will use it and say I made it up.
