    I mean, I get pissed about losing too, but some of these posters seem to have the memory span of a chimpanzee.

    Fun fact. Chimpanzee’s memory is equivalent to the average human. So you basically called them average human memory.

    Fun fact: you’re wrong. Chimps have some of the worst short term recall of any animal.

    Another fun fact: I’m not an average human.

    Chimps have better short-term memory than humans - https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna50834842

    Good description. Great reason why my participation in the game threads has lessened

    Some on the Dodger side don’t seem to be thrilled with Freddie’s return last night

    I remember from our waffle house dinner that you looked below average down there.

    I wondered that while I was watching it. Some of his teammates weren’t clapping and didn’t look to thrilled. They all know if Freddie could change it he would. They were his 2nd choice and it’s pretty obvious.

    And yet he’s going to post 6 WAR for them this year and get MVP consideration.

    They’ll get over it. Freeman has every right to be bummed out on his first trip back, even if it was his fault.

    That last part indeed says it all.

    Must be a thousand country songs about the cowboy who was too stupid to realize what he had, and now the love of his life is long gone with somebody new
