  • Never, it's the end of the world as we know it.

    And I feel fine.
    If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

    Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

                  If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                      Y'know, that's pretty good. Symbolic as Hell, and enough time to get 4 months in...have to play late in the year and basically 7 days a week, but I think you can get 120 games in without too many problems.

                        Hmm, I assume they'd play in spring training facilties? How the heck could they give 120 games in basically when the AS break is supposed to be. Baseball teams play 6 games a week as is. Also, how could the play into November? It would be too cold to play baseball in November in December most places. 120 games starting July 4th seems impossible.

                        • I just saw the postponed the summer Olympics, which wasn't to start until Jul 24th. That isn't a good sign for baseball being played at all.

                          • yes, July 4 in some limited fashion - such as small crowds, at spring training sites, etc.

                              That would be amazing. I dont see how it could happen if it wasn't in empty stadiums. Whenever it is it will truly be a day to celebrate

                              • Yea, I'm not confident by any means but the symbolism is obviously there, and I think everyone would be thrilled with a 1/2 season. I don't think they'll try to squeeze in more games than normal because that will just lead to more injuries.
