Dirks the athlete would be losing his shit.
Now he’s doing commentary and wants prime time play by play again so he says this.
Andy that’s some grade A state issued propaganda. Nobody wants to hear that right now.

I think his Ferrari analogy isn’t quite correct. A better version would be: It’s like your dad gave you a Ferrari for your birthday. You drove it off the road and totaled it. But at least you can still ride your skateboard.
I can appreciate Andy for trying to keep the spirits up, but we’re past that right now brother, this is defcon 1 territory.
This is the most delusional shit I’ve heard. “Let’s say I told you last year that we will have the best record in the AL and then lose EVERY FUCKING GAME LEFT. You’d be happy we barely made it in the playoffs right?”
“No.”
I know Andy has to say that on air, nobody’s buying this.
Keep glazing, Andy. It’s working.
Sometimes when I’ve been low and my positive friend shows up I find them annoying in the moment. But goddammit, they’re my friends for a reason.
He’s right. I might not want to hear it, but he’s right. Love Andy.
I love Andy, but trying to rationalize this collapse is wild!
He’s got a fair point
Andy would honestly be my foxhole dude out of everyone associated to the organization. I’d go to war with Andy he could handle himself. I wish he could be in the dugout, boys down Taurus bad.
Appreciate the optimism but do those kids even know what a ford Taurus is
So we were a Ferrari but now we’re a Ford Taurus 💀
Let’s be completely honest. This team is on the verge of blowing the biggest division lead in history. Nobody should be interested in hearing “but they are still 1 game up”.
Win some fucking games
I guess it’s better than being one game behind
Andy didn’t realize going into this video that these kids have been following the team all year. I had hope till now.
I don’t care about his car analogy, but he is correct. I’m disappointed by the collapse that led to this and I’m very disappointed for the third year in a row by the Scott Harris deadline deals but he is correct.
This is really cool. Dirks is an all-around good guy and baseball fan.
If my dad was broke struggling to pay the bills and he worked his ass for months and said “son ive saved up 100,000 dollars” then proceeded to blow it all to only have enough for the rent next month id be pretty pissed at my dad
It’s okay to be upset about the collapse, Andy. Trying to convince people that they should feel good about this team atm is insulting and shows a lack of emotional maturity. I’ve spent the bulk of my nights this summer watching tigs baseball and the thought of them missing the playoffs is a bummer – Don’t belittle my feelings.
Is this guy serious? This is a moronic statement altogether. That’s like asking a baseball fan if they wanted to play Russian roulette for a playoff spot after 159 games… terrible take
