If I were scoring this game, I’d quit

If you spend the entire ballgame sitting behind home plate holding up a name on your phone and waving at the camera you should be asked to leave

The Brewers were the best team in baseball, I think we can maybe relax on this “average Joes” thing

“He’s been a big part of the Blue Jays’ success over the last three years” is the success over the last three years in the room with us right now

I knew that was a stupid matchup, let me manage

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 11h

This zone is absurd

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 12h

Not the kind of proving me wrong I meant guys

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 1d

Unfortunately my pick for this series is Mariners in 6 but feel free to prove me wrong guys

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 1d

It’s game one bro can we stop acting like it’s game seven and you have to pull the starter the first time he sneezes

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 1d

A lot of hockey fans who recently discovered the Jays and have Opinions about Bo need to get slapped

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 1d

Oh not writers that I’ve seen anyway, just random people complaining about tomorrow’s start time

I fucking love people who think Major League Baseball is in the tank for the Toronto Blue Jays. Hell yeah guys, congrats on tying your shoes for the first time ever this morning I assume.

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 1d

Crazy how washing my hair in Halifax water one time undoes six months of hard water damage from Toronto water!

Vancouver sports media spending the day crashing out about the Jays is SO funny, no one in Toronto is ever even thinking about you guys

We got Plato as a pre-vetted eight week old kitten in 2009 after two cat distribution system kittens died on me before their first birthday. He has had a long and perfect life. It is both good and terrible to know that this trip is the end of our time together.

Killing the vibe by starting to cry every time I look at him

Time for us to get our own Etsy witch

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 3d

Both teams immediately proving my point, thanks guys

I honestly don’t think there’s been a single year since I became a baseball fan that I would trust the Tigers’ bullpen to protect a one run lead.

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 3d

I think the Tigers are frauds and the Mariners have been getting enough magic that I don’t want any part of it, this game should be no contest for Jays fans imo

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 3d

The Boston Red Sox of cities

In Montreal for the optimal length of time to be in Montreal (two hours)

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 4d

They lost this game and I cannot overstate how much I still did not learn one single lesson

Tweet from @hamnox: RIP to everyone killed by the gods for their hubris but im different. and better. maybe even better than the gods.

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 4d

I love and welcome bandwagon fans but there is still nothing funnier than a “sprotsball” guy trying to 1. Speak authoritatively about sports or 2. Make a non-sports narrative fit the team’s story / style / season.

Emily @emilydawn.bsky.social · 4d

Oh yeah that was crazy lol. Like the Jays invented champagne celebrations.
