The only entertaining thing I've said in weeks

A conversation from tonight's Let's Go Tribe Game Thread:

Joe: That's either a single or an out with Gutz.
supermarioelia: Overexaggeration of the night. No way any human catches that.
Gradyforpresident: But Gutz isn't human.
Me: robot baseball players are my favorite.
nickjs21: But this is a game of heart!!!1!
Me: but robots are awesome.
nickjs21: I can't argue with that.
Me: also, i think gutz is one of those neato sci-fi robots who are like "man, i wish i had emotions," failing to realize that tragically wishing for emotions is an emotion. that's totally heart.
nickjs21: If only everyone understood Gutz like you.

Sometimes, like games like tonight's, you have to make your own fun. I think a "Replace everyone with emo sci-fi robots!" campaign is in order. They've already gotten the Indians pitching staff; you just haven't realized it yet.

Did you know they were recently discussing robot umpires on Deadspin?

I did not! I haven't been reading any other sports blogs lately. Clearly the hivemind has overtaken me.

The first thing I noticed in the post was the Gradyforpresident. I'm not sure what to think.
