The Pittsburgh Pirates: Professional Baseball's Drunken Sailor

Lolcow (n) - A person or group of people laughed at for actions that they take, despite not trying to be funny. They may try to take themselves seriously, but they are often "milked" for laughs with or without their knowledge.
Here's a first video on many fronts: The first baseball team I have profiled and the first Pittsburgh team I'm taking on. Oh, boy, this one is a doozy. A team where everything fell to shit pretty quickly. A team that once had twenty-consecutive losing seasons is back to losing again after several wild-card defeats.
Why the sudden decline in performance? Find out why here.

I love when someone rips on their hometown. It's so much more honest.

[@m.robert123]

[@wm_9640]

Try being a Tigers fan. More than half of our team from 2012-2013 went on to be all stars and/or WS champions 😑

[@EdDy4RheelZ]

@@wm_9640 Tigers and Pirates at least won world series in the past. Try being a Mariners fan. You will then realize that Tiger and Pirates fans are privileged fans who should be proud of their past. Mariners have no past accomplishments. They produced and scouted out highly talented superstars and either ruined their careers or lowballed them and they leave to win title with a different team. As a Dodgers fan for NL and Angels fan for AL when I get angry at Dodgers messing up, or Angels ruining Trout and Ohtani's careers, my friend who is a Mariner fan shuts me up and tells me I don't know what frustration and anger is until I become Mariners fan. This applies to you all as well. Looking at Mariners, makes me not even complain about Angels management even though Arte Moreno is a piece of dog$ht. He tells me I should be happy I get to see generational talent locked in with the Angels and see them play and that I should feel privileged since Mariners don't know how to take care of their players and their superstars all leave. Mike Trout locked into 12 year contract.

[@anonmeatcheesebun]

The one thing that really pisses me off as a Pirates fan, is I will carry to my deathbed the argument that the pirates should have won the WS in 2015. The pirates had the second best record in baseball, but no ace, and lost to the team with the third best record in baseball. But they had by far and away the best offense in the league, and 4 solid number 1 pitchers (Cole, Liriano, Burnett, Happ). But they got fucked. Absolutely fucked. And our cheap ass owner won't spend a fucking dime to keep us in the running, even though that's very possible. It's pathetic and pisses me the fuck off. Great video though.

[@the_alaskan_yeti2652]

Please, tell us how they got fucked over?

[@anonmeatcheesebun]

One game playoffs are absolutely bullshit. It's not a test of one team as much as it is a test of one player. In addition, the team with the second best record in all of baseball should not be playing the team with the third best record in all of baseball in the first round. IN A ONE GAME PLAYOFF. I cannot scream and shout enough about how idiotic it is that the wild card games are one game playoffs, but for it to have been that year the team with the 2nd best record in baseball in a wild card game against the team with the 3rd best record? Absurd.

[@maxbrown429]

Lariano can only pitch to Russel Martin, any other catcher would take time to get use to the incredible amount of wild pitches he throws, Lariano can barely hit the strike zone most games, it surprises me that he was in the Jays rotation, I really hope that Biagini keeps his spot on the rotation.

[@alexyerkey3141]

I'll always believe that if they would've beat the Cubs they had a great chance to win the World Series.

[@UrinatingTree]

True, the wild card game was fucking bullshit. You know what helps? Not losing to Cincinnati or Milwaukee.

If you look at the Patriots' formation, he had 8 in the box. No matter what we did, we weren't going to score on that play.

[@DoctorX101]

@Man in Black: exactly. You may not want to read any of this Painful Memory Wall of Text--but despite it, pretty much 99& of PATS fans think "run the ball!" Hell, Brady nearly threw a pick in OT against Atlanta: PAINFUL WALL of TEXT: But worse, people forget that "Beast Mode" was stopped short of a 3rd and 1 earlier in the game and--I did not know that--had been stopped in similar situations during the regular season. What really did it, though, was the waste of time outs. Particularly egregious was after the Kearse Catch. You throw it deep. If it works it is either a TD or a long completion. You HAVE to have a plan. He was knocked out of bounds which stopped the clock, but Seattle STILL had to take a time out. I heard that Carroll expected Dark Hoodie to challenge the catch, but he could not--under 2 minutes. So Carroll feared if the run was stuffed, they would have to burn their last time out which would force a pass play if they wanted to preserve their final down for two shots. So he passed. So many better passes, but if Butler did not play it exactly, it is TD with Pats Fans crying at ~28 seconds left. Fellow Seahawks fan "Norb" who has a channel and is in every "reaction video" since he was at the game taping his reactions is one of the few who figured out that Seattle had a chance: force a safety. Dark Hoodie made clear to Brady not to have the ball snapped to see if they could draw Seattle off-sides which happened.

agreed its hard to be an orioles fan. after we destroyed boston in 2011 and managed to make the playoffs in 2012 and 2014. this year, however the cracks are beginning to show. A rotation that is doing as bad as it was projected to do (save for dylan bundy) injury after fucking injury to the bullpen, machado playing like bryce harper did last year, Davis, a guy we paid 169 million dollars to when we could've gotten cespedes for like 75 million, he is our version of Adam Dunn and fucking Jimenez....hate him. The way we're playing now we gotta get new blood into our system, trading machado britton Tillman and maybe even Jones may not be such a bad idea, but what sucks is that since those guys are all either under-preforming or not preforming at all is that we most likely won't get a great deal out of it.

Is anyone else here after they clinched the first overall pick in the 2021 draft? This video still stays true three years later. But… Gerrit Cole is the highest payed pitcher in baseball. So I guess this video is just mostly true in 2020.

[@scoobycarr5558]

Captain Hook has given up the ship on the Pirates and is now going fishing with Peter Pan. Now Peter has his Hook, Line and Sinker.

[@matthewfranke9988]

My gosh this channel just gets better and better!

[@weakestlink20]

This video has aged like a fine wine. The Pirates have been a steaming pile of shit ever since. Too bad relegation isn’t a thing in MLB, because the Pirates would be the first on the list.

[@SylveonMujigaeOfficial]

Imagine if the Pirates got relegated to Minor League Baseball. Who would they be affiliates of?

[@JosefSnurk]

7:38 This is true agony. I almost felt bad for laughing my ass off. almost.

[@panteraville931]

7:16 My exact words when that happened.

One of my favorite channels on KZbin. Good work Tree, alot of effort comes into these videos and it shows

[@sportballotaku2139]

The Pittsburgh Pirates: The New York Jets of professional baseball.

[@chanceosborne7]

They just gave up 20 to the braves lol.

[@N394-l1f]

4:36 nice prediction lol

[@konnorrockkonnoisseur4970]

I feel like Tree walks the line between analytical nerd and yinzer when it comes to baseball

[@benabramowitz18]

Well, it's been 7 years since this video, and the Pirates kinda look like a decent team again? Paul Skenes sure is a stud.

[@hurrythepeace9443]

WHY WE GOTTA BE A LOLCOW

[@sapphirestar22]

At least y'all have football and hockey

"Ordinary boots? These are the only official fry cook boots! Only the finest fry cooks in the world are permitted to wear them! Part of a tradition. And these boots were given to me by the most famous fry cook in the sea."

[@timmylong833]

Remember when Gerrit Cole was on the Pirates, yeah I don’t either..?

[@blueknight5754]

Dude you realize that you have now created a channel that EVERYONE is going to want their team shitted on..congrlations..good luck trying to find sleep keeping up with all the demands..your channel rocks!! Keep the good times rolling!

[@jackson5116]

The Central was formidable when the Cubs, Cards, and Buccs were all playoff teams. It'll be stacked again this year, but will be the Cubs, Brewers and Birds all fighting for the division.

[@oilfan2742]

the MLB's version of the Cleveland Browns.

[@trents3515]

Oilfan27: going after my Browns, huh? they are getting better and will surpass Steelers soon. stick to hockey or something else you might know about - i won't speculate...

[@duskthunder9274]

@@trents3515 ha Steelers seem to be better lol and don't be Happy if u beat our backups

i put spongebob music over a UrinatingTree video

[@traviscummings9178]

As Bull Durham puts it: "It's a simple game. You throw the ball. You hit the ball. You catch the ball. GOT IT?!"

[@owenhillman1712]

still relevant to this day. even joe musgrove, the top prospect given to the pirates in the gerrit cole trade, became a stud on the padres after being traded

[@illiniguy34]

Does anyone in Pittsburgh actually like Greg Brown or do you guys just merely tolerate him?

[@UrinatingTree]

He's good when you have a winning team, but he can be pretty insufferable when the team is trash. The dude did deal with 20 years of shit and is passionate about the team. I'll give him a pass.

[@robminmonaca]

UrinatingTree I don’t like it when he acts like a yes man and defends the pirate organization when someone criticizes nutting on twitter.

[@saltydog3187]

The Cleveland Browns of baseball.

[@phillypal4321]

Salty Dog no the Phillies are sadly

[@gerardlevaar6766]

No Cubs. One year does not erase a century of lolcowness. Can't wait for next century

[@AlbertFu]

we still had five World Series

[@NickH403]

Salty Dog No that's the mariners.

[@gerardlevaar6766]

The Browns also had good spans in their history. Didn't stop them from being on this channel, did it?

[@dingers5days]

Tampa Bay Rays Lolcow? Joke of a stadium and consistent mediocre play.

[@joseph23ification]

ContentDeleted Hello Professional Florida baseball lolcow slash future Montréal Expos.

[@targettoad691]

joseph23ification the 2 florida teams merge and move to Quebec? Seems legit (for both MLB and NHL once tampa rejoins the cellar)

[@joseph23ification]

TargetToad 9/9/99 im talking about the Rays

[@targettoad691]

joseph23ification oh I know, once the lease runs out in 2027 (or earlier if the Tampa sues St. Pete over the Rays stadium issues), Tampa is moving to Quebec/Portland/Charlotte

[@bcat010]

TargetToad 9/9/99 I thought I had heard that the Rays were looking into building a new stadium.

[@alexgiancola8916]

So basically every season of pirates baseball 1980-Present has been a disaster
