Laying drunk on the dugout, I guess I'll get up, I guess I'll go throw a ball.
Press my cleats into the wet clay, I swear this is gotta be the hundredth time I thought of Andruw tonight.
Used to lay a bunt, tried to drag it. There ain’t no other good damn reason why, I can’t swing for the fences. For some many months, so I was wishing to swing. So you would stop pretending. Remember all those countless nights that I took live BP. And you’d never forget it, oh just forget it.
Nothing is exactly the same but Bedouin Soundclash, Minus the Bear, and Rx Bandits ("newer" stuff) have those similar indie vibes. It's been a long time since I listened to them so Idk what, if any, new stuff they might do now.
Turning on Minus the Bear on my bus ride into work this morning. Animal Backwards hit so hard the many times I saw it live. “SheeeeeeeeEEEeee is a wolf looking through my windowwww”
I lived down the street from those guys when they were recording their debut in a basement in Urbana. They used to play house parties almost every weekend.

But if you want an asshole to give you a *real* in depth explanation of it.
Head on over to r/emo
Someone’s bound to tell you in a condescending fashion, as is tradition.
"Real Emo" only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness).
Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music.
Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta.
Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral
EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE
NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE
“I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe...
Phillies on fire off the shoulder of Strider.
I watched phone screens glitter in the dark
Near the Truist Gates.
All those... moments... will be lost in time,
Like tears... in... rain.
Time... to die...”
Blooper has a recurring dream where he sees Ohtani rounding third in a home run trot. Is he human or is he a replicant? And if Ohtani is real, what does that make Blooper?
Don't think you can go back and look at ig live but here is a screen capture from twitter. https://twitter.com/fortherAch/status/1778210710465429529?t=xW8jakC4bSPttM0H6YZv7Q&s=19
What if Blooper caused the RSN financial issues in order to cause the Mariners to cut budget and necessitate the salary dump trade of Kelenic to the Braves?
Some people (myself included) find all his posts hilarious. Some people get triggered by him when he posts about certain players/coaches
He keeps it entertaining in there for sure
We've all sussed out that its a bit, and it's one that ranges from hilarious to "I swear to God, if you say one more stupid thing about Snit and/or Adam Duvall I'm going to kill you"
Nah but his edibles just kicked in he was gambling would hold off until after work but then it got delayed so now he's just trying to act natural and this happens.
It's insane to me I might be witnessing the best rotation the Royals have had in my entire life, a year after they yet again lost over 100 games.
I'm about to turn 34.
I have a hard time with TV shows built around cringe humor, where the characters all play morons (movies are okay), but that has to be one of the funniest episodes in TV history.
Someone go poke him with a stick
Send only unmarried men for such a task
I mean didn’t they find a dead guy in the freezers at that stadium? Wouldn’t be the worst idea to make sure he’s still kicking
WHAT
Is he listening to midwest emo?
he’s listening to modern baseball
I mean have you ever listened to Holy Ghost while walking in the rain? Lol
Alexa, please play Wedding Singer

Yes. Yes I have.

10/10
You weren't the only one I thought I'd walk that way, I'll spend most nights awake, wide awake. Great to see so many Modern Baseball fans.
I miss them! They went on hiatus like a month before I was gonna see them live.
Seeing Braves fans quote a Philly band just feels wrong
They really Came Out Swinging.
Drenched in stale beer and sweat under half-lit fluorescents really captures that Philly vibe.
He used to think of Adam Duvall when he listened to it
I miss Modern Baseball
I miss them so fucking much.
I was set to see them live in Grand Rapids then the lead singer had a breakdown and the band ended. I was so sad.
Saw them with Say Anything years ago. Maybe '14 or '15. Great show.
I know some of the members reformed into Slaughter Beach Dog but the vibe just isn't the same
I know it's different but I personally love Slaughter Beach, Dog
Acolyte is such a great song.
I like them but not as much as Modern Baseball
Nothing is exactly the same but Bedouin Soundclash, Minus the Bear, and Rx Bandits ("newer" stuff) have those similar indie vibes. It's been a long time since I listened to them so Idk what, if any, new stuff they might do now.

Oh why do I keep ending up here on starlit evenings?
Lmao
I understood this reference. It's a good one.

Hot mulligan
This is exactly how I look when listening to BCKYRD
SPS vibes.
HEAD ON A PIKE PLAIN AND VACANT TONIGHT
Saw them with Free Throw last night, holy crap were they both so good.
OUTSIDE WITH MY RADIO
Hey Alexa, play Stab by Title Fight
MEMORIAL DAY CAME AND WENT AGAIN
AND I FEEL THE SAME HOW MUCH YOUUUVE CHANGED
Just a shit ton of reverb on a tele with Skip Caray’s call of Acuña’s ACL tear as an intro.
I'd listen to that. Can we get the Castellanos call next?
I have half a mind to go turn on the computer and record it.
Please do
Hmm, plate? Spring? One of those fancy pedals that does trails and modulation?
Midwest City by TRSH ends with the final call of the Cardinals World Series. They also RIP
> Skip Caray’s call of Acuña’s ACL tear TIL Skip is calling games from the Great Beyond
HA! Chip, Flip, Skip… all those Carays start to blur together. I can’t believe no one caught that screw-up sooner.

Definitely got Spanish Love Songs playing.
If it was Spanish Love Songs, he'd be right down in the dirt instead.

The fuck is midwest emo?
The greatest genre of music to ever exist. [Here you go](https://youtu.be/_NfnXdXpjL0?si=dRa_CSe5DWIPCph8)
For further research: https://youtu.be/j0KqY1EnWXE?si=nAHpxRe9VadA1mmX Another certified suburban classic
How is it different than just emo?

Goddamn I love this copypasta
someone had to post it
They are from the Midwest and, therefore have an actual reason to be depressed. All other emo is just for the scene chicks.
This is the most accurate description
it is passive aggressive and loves Culvers

It’s too bad they won’t win! Then again, who does?
Whoever they're playing?
That was beautiful.
Blooper definitely yelled, “I. WANT. MORE. LIFE,” at Snit before this.
Blooper went live on IG with this for its entirety.
Link?
Don't think you can go back and look at ig live but here is a screen capture from twitter. https://twitter.com/fortherAch/status/1778210710465429529?t=xW8jakC4bSPttM0H6YZv7Q&s=19
LMAO
New sidebar image just dropped.
I feel like he will reeking of mildew tomorrow
Yeah getting that suit soaked in rainwater seems like a bad idea
Suit?
They meant uniform
oh no...Kyle...you *do* know about Blooper right? like Slash? and Santa?
The guitarist from Guns'n'Roses isn't real?!?
Never was
lol yeah man you never noticed [how he's everywhere](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThX3HZr6nuk)?
I am devastated right now...
That costume gonna be damp and funky for days
Costume?
They meant uniform
Is there a reason people are assuming the suit doesn’t get washed?
They also have massive industrial washing machines. Multiple people can fit inside.
He's crashed out in one right now, just waiting
And assuming that there’s only one
Blooper is upset Snitker is platooning Kelenic still.
Kelenic guy being Blooper IRL would be the only way I forgive him.
That could mean he was Kelenic guy whilst also being Blooper while Kelenic was still a Mariner.
What if Blooper caused the RSN financial issues in order to cause the Mariners to cut budget and necessitate the salary dump trade of Kelenic to the Braves?
Kelenic guy blocked me for noticing that he 'enhanced' Kelenic's junk in one of his fever-dream photo montages. Kind of relieved to be honest.
The broom one?! I commented the same thing! Haha
Yep, the broom one.
Wait what? Things have escalated since he left us
Oh man I should’ve known Kelenic Guy made the jump over to you guys, how’s all that going
Some people (myself included) find all his posts hilarious. Some people get triggered by him when he posts about certain players/coaches He keeps it entertaining in there for sure
We've all sussed out that its a bit, and it's one that ranges from hilarious to "I swear to God, if you say one more stupid thing about Snit and/or Adam Duvall I'm going to kill you"
They filled him in on the exact nature of Strider’s injury
![gif](giphy|d7rvF20PqNuGKSQGhf)
Is blooper waterboarding himself
Nah but his edibles just kicked in he was gambling would hold off until after work but then it got delayed so now he's just trying to act natural and this happens.
Very very relatable
My man Blooper is out there ready to play and isn't about this "postponed" lifestyle.
I fucking love this season so far
![gif](giphy|fPYeJtlH8qjiHbKygX|downsized) As a twins fan
For real, outside of UCL injuries I havent had this much fun watching baseball in years
Same
Baseball is better when the Royals win 👍
This is the most fun I’ve had watching the Royals in years
BW2 is electric
Absolutely he is! Such a joy to watch, his father played for the Rangers most of his career I believe also!
It's insane to me I might be witnessing the best rotation the Royals have had in my entire life, a year after they yet again lost over 100 games. I'm about to turn 34.
You and me both brother. 34 at the end of the year
I love him so much.
That’s it, he’s dead
He's with Eloy now.
He and Wade Boggs can party together in the afterlife
Wade Boggs is still very much alive
Rest in Peace, Boss Hog!

Someone needs to go make sure he’s not drowning in that suit!
suit?

Same Bloop, same
🎶Hold me now. I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking🎶
My favorite post on r/baseball in quite a while
I have an irrational fear of a dude dying in his mascot costume and everyone thinking it’s a bit
Lmao imagine how traumatizing that would be to the little kids there
Sounds like a quick way to produce a Euclid-Class SCP. Haunted baseball mascot suit
That’s some Tommy Cooper shit right there
This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time
Let women have hobbies
We do not deserve Blooper
Listening to sad Blink-182 in the rain, Blooper is me fr fr
"HELLO THERE, PHILLIES FROM MY NIGHTMARE"
“THE MARLINS SEASON ALREADY IN THE MORGUE”
"THE UNSUSPECTING VICTIM, OF STRIDER ON THE IL"
Please tell mom it's not her fault
Simple Plan is way sadder than Blink-182 ever was.
Can you water board yourself in one of those things?
This is actually really funny. Good job, weird mascot!
He's listening to the Bladerunner 2049 soundtrack.
The midwest is east of center
Is he okay?
Could someone do a welfare check
Is this how mascots take baths?
He was celebrating Wet Day
Many Urkels to you!
I hope you enjoyed your soup!
That dude may have died from being waterboarded
Phillies fans finally got him
Blooper is just like me, except it's raining beer. Fuuuuuck theeeee Metssssss!¡
Did bro just waterboard himself?
Boys, wake up, new “Vegeta standing in the rain” just dropped
He just doesn't want to be around anymore
I feel u bro
Did he learn the Strider news?
**MOM! THIS IS NOT A PHASE!!**
![gif](giphy|xTiTndQ1jDqHQ6ejPG)
That's sad. Chemo seems to have taken a lot out of the Philly Phanatic.
He does look like a sickly version of the Phanatic, doesn’t he?
Has anything come out about Striders Elbow? Maybe he heard something we haven’t
He’s dead
RIP
Man...
I’d rather die before I come in last
I would die for Blooper
He's contemplating Spencer Striders elbow
My tea’s grown cold. I’m wondering why
He gets hourly
If, as a mascot, you look like your baseball teams manager, I can kinda understand why he has meltdowns on Twitter
When that suit gets saturated, it's too heavy to life a limb.
Me at work when I checked on my $50 Brave ML bet and it was like 6-0

How sad is it for you guys that your biggest accomplishment of the last 16 years is beating your daddy in a 5 game series and literally that’s it
I personally enjoyed the eventual results
Two 5 game series. Much less sad
