The Wife and I watched ‘IT’ last night, which I thought was kinda disappointing on the whole. A little too much heavy leaning on “this thing looks really scary doesn’t it?!?” instead of the creepy tension that I always associated with the original miniseries (which, by the way, is campy as hell if you ever go back and watch it now … so bad (except for Tim Curry as Pennywise – that holds up well)). The scariest parts of the movie were, by far, the early moments where they just showed a little bit here and there and mostly alluded to the terror, rather than trying to beat you over the head with it.
About an hour into the movie, we got a text from our out-of-town neighbor, who’d realized they left stuff out in their garage that they needed put into their garage fridge. So, I went over and did it, and I just want to say that I am extremely brave.
Asked Jon Lester about his lack of swing & miss this season & he gave a lengthy answer that included, "There's people who have nothing better to do than overanalyze things," & "It doesn't matter what the exit velocity is," & "I'm not concerned about all the other analytic BS."

One rough start won’t make Jon Lester start caring about “analytics BS,” writes @sahadevsharma. https://t.co/T0J7cceBq7
