same thing as tinder except unlimited swipes and the woman has 24 hours to message you first after you connect. you can't message her till she does. but the talent pool is better.

Noah Syndergaard Used To Be A Self-Described "Chunkster"

There aren’t many athletes who have a more apt nickname than Noah Syndergaard, who has been dubbed “Thor” because he truly looks like a Norse god and is likely a descendant of real-life Vikings. But before he became a hulking Norseman who throws 100 mph, Syndergaard looked like any other kid.

That’s really him, I promise. Syndergaard was a late bloomer who didn’t start throwing hard until he hit a big growth spurt in high school. Back in 2012, when he was a year out of high school and in Single A, Syndergaard spoke about his transformation:


“Back in eighth grade I was a chunkster, kids would tease me for being overweight,” said Syndergaard.

He came home from school one day in Mansfield, Tex., told his father he wanted to join the YMCA and eat healthier.

So, he worked out at the Y, ate his veggies, worked out some more and, oh yeah, had a growth spurt from 5-foot-11 to his current height.

The bad news for those kids who used to tease him is that they are not getting into Valhalla.

Phillies took Dom Brown off the 40-man? I know he's been a flop, but I'd like the Mets to take a chance on him. Low risk, high reward.
 
I can't remember if it was Champ or someone else but I kept telling someone how much a bum he still was that year he hit almost 30 :lol
 
Imagine if Willy Mays played today. His pathetic performances in the World Series would make people think he was some random dude.

Doubt that. He was the best player in baseball's best era and had the greatest catch in the sport's history in the WS that led to a sweep of the heavily favored Indians. No one talks about Buster Posey's mediocre WS performances so I doubt they'd harp on Mays too much seeing as how he was the GOAT when he played
 
No offense but Posey is a nobody compared to Mays. Look at Willy's numbers, in today's era he'd get it worse than Peyton.
