The ones who get paid to analyze them? Yes

Best case scenario is that the race stays "close" and the rangers are buyers at the deadline. Please let this happen.
Our lineup is better than yours so far.
You seem smrt
None of the Rangers fans seemed to bat an eyelash at this.. so Im just quoting it again to make sure you realize that your hot first half was merely a "beating up on teams who are tanking" first half.mazag08 said:
Oh btw..
Astros vs teams .500 or better: 30-21
Rangers vs teams .500 or better: 17-21
Yall have 16 games in July, 10 in August, and 20 in September (6 against that Yankees team yall think is the second coming) against teams currently .500 or better.
There's a better chance of yall finishing in 4th place in the division than 1st.
Congrats on being in second place after playing all the patsies.
Grapesoda has to be an Astros fan playing the long con.
Someone post the roughned/roughned thing. It's time.
Grapesoda is the one on the politics board always advocating to legalize pot...it explains a LOT.

Scream it from the roof tops! You tell them mean old Ranger fans.
Who are you trying to convince anyways? Ranger or Astro fans?
You brought up Trump at least 3x already. Don't lie.
While not against the legalization of pot, I hardly label it as "harmless."Quote:
Newsflash : alcohol just doesn't mesh well with some people's bodies and I don't think we should fault them for seeking a harmless alternative.
Can we not leak politics onto this thread?

As a long time fan/lurker of this thread. Please for the love.
I never brought up Donald trump. There's a HUGE difference between Eric trump and Donald trump. You know that.Farmer1906 said:

I didn't bring up Eric trump either. You were the one who initially quoted him in this thread. Get over yourself.

Other than the Rangers offense outperforming the Stros thus far, I think this is one thing we Rangers and Astros fans can agree on.
I'll admit..... I just saw Eric trump at the bottom of the tweet and didn't bother to look at what the tweet actually said.gigem1223 said:Grapesoda2525 said:I never brought up Donald trump. There's a HUGE difference between Eric trump and Donald trump. You know that.Farmer1906 said:

Dude he quoted Socrates... that just so happened to be from Eric Trump's Twitter. There was nothing political about it until you brought that into the discussion.
Hey man, I've ALWAYS advocated for legalization. My mom was a pharmacist for 50 years and was held up at gun point when I was 9 years old. I was actually at the pharmacy with her and left about 90 seconds before the two arrived and held her up (I had a doctor's appt next door and thought it was odd a cop interviewed me asking if I had seen anyone). It was a couple and my mom was happy the guy (who she described as Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati) was holding the gun and not the chick (she was completely strung out apparently). They asked for the drugs first and the money second.Grapesoda2525 said:I find it to be hilarious because conservatives are usually the ones who complain about athletes bringing politics into sports.Prosperdick said:

However, on this thread ( about sports) I haven't brought up politics at all and conservatives are trying to bring up my posting history to attack me on here ( as if I give a ****). Some of you guys are massive hypocrites, it's quite sad.
With that said, you guys aren't going to win any battles attacking the legalization of marijuana. According to the long running polling, more than 66% of American adults support full legalization. Laws are being relaxed all over the country, heck all over the world now. The genie won't ever be put back into the bottle. Lots of highly intelligent and functioning individuals smoke pot while paying mortgages and holding down a job which contributes to society in a positive way.
Newsflash : alcohol just doesn't mesh well with some people's bodies and I don't think we should fault them for seeking a harmless alternative.
Anyway, this is a baseball thread but thought I'd let you know I'm part of the 66%.
Quit it.

This pretty much sums up how you watch baseball too.

That's what the rangers fans themselves originally said. Said he was astros4545
Maybe yal should start posting more on the OAK vs TEX Trash Talking Thread... .5 game away from being 3rd. They also best y'all in the run differential by 20 runs. There's your actual "battle."
Aggie_3 said:
If patterns keep up Rangers and Astro's very likely could be tied for the division going into that series
I'm not smart enough to understand sabertoothmatrics. Does the trend still show we'll be tied?
Oh dear. If the scores hold, looks like the As are now in a "battle" for the division.
Poor Arlingtonians.
You'll always have June 26th 2019 to celebrate.

7.5 games back with a worse run differential than the A's and closer to 4th than 1st. But they are so close. So close.
And once again. This thread will be devoid of all ranger life for the rest of the season.

But they're doing it the right way
Where are the Ranger fans?
Are they buyers or sellers? Somehow Cleveland and Boston have played a schedule just as soft as Arlington.
The Arlingtonians are waking up this morning to the realization that they are in 3rd place and their hopes and dreams are getting flushed along with last night's Taco Bell binge run.
Come on boys. Don't give up all hope. You have a projected 4% chance of making the playoffs. You need to go all in! Make that trade for MadBum or Thor. You are just that close. Surely you have prospects to trade for that one extra piece to put you over the top.

I guess I overestimated them.Farmer1906 said:
It'll dead by the end of July.
Rangers finish the first half with 3 at the Twins. I wouldn't be shocked to see them 10 GB by the ASB. That would all but guarantee they would keep their heads down.
I hope the Rangers keep doing it the right way forever.
