#derrick krueger

[kikiavci]

Do y'all think Derrick Krueger was like so glad he died before he could get dunked on the same way Mike Townsend was

[furballfaggot]

also because i saw a post about some parallels between derrick krueger and jaylen: i cannot be consoled knowing that they both have different variations of "you were the best if only for a moment" (hotdogfingers got incinerated as a wonderful pitcher and came back mediocre, krueger came out of the black hole during coronation as a wonderful pitcher after being mediocre and then blaseball just Ended)

[fabledivine]

ummmm derrick 70

MARN.... HOW LONG HAVE I OWED YOU THIS EVIL DERRICK

[doctorwhoisadhd]

hi blaseball fans. vote now on ur phones

[charaznablescanontoyota]

headfirst slide into cooperstown on a bad bet

[showzens]

my name is derrick krueger  the fans call me der (well, they do now i have fans)

[thehallstara]

it starts like this: you’re sixteen, catcher to derrick’s shitty, shitty pitcher. you're the one who cares; he's ambivalent at best and barely half as good. but you still tag along to his gigs so it's payment in kind, hand over hand and heart over stupid fucking heart.

these decisions, you'll realize, will look a lot more awful at twenty-six.

(shaquille torres, and the weight of the past)

fuck it, The Ballad of the Unremarkable Derrick Krueger Thursday

Listen to: the ballad of unremarkable derrick krueger (live @ TAKEOVER) by the garages

This song is incredible. It’s beautiful and haunting and absolutely wrecks me every time.

[fogwitchoftheevermore]

sigh. ballad of unremarkable derrick krueger and blaseball!au mumbo we’re really in it now aren’t we.

[haunthouse]

derrick krueger coming back from the dead because he's the best pitcher in the league meanwhile jaylen is still both vaulted and unstable is making me feel some kind of way. jaylen was killed for being the best pitcher + was only mediocre by the time she came back but derrick was killed while being a mediocre pitcher and came back as the best and. the mirrors of it all.

5, 10 for tgcf?

5. do you have a favorite character? who?

I'm not sure, actually, they take turns being On My Mind. which is mu qing rn. guy of the month. otherwise, i think yin yu is leaving quite a lasting impression though. which is probably a first for him.

10. if you made an amv about this, what song would you set it to?

big thoughts on this. i love to imagine blorbos in the song. have started assembling many playlists but haven't managed to rlly contemplate harder on a good lineup for a lot of them though. anyways here's some im thinkign abt. some of these im picturing in terms of amvs and some in terms of animatics:

hualian - you were cool by the mountain goats: yknow. people were mean to you. but i always thought you were cool. thats a big thing for them. this would be an amv, i think, if/when the donghua gets to show their history throughout those 800 years more.

beefleaf - your belgian things (also by. the mountain goats): struggling to articulate how i feel abt this song wrt them specifically but it's like. the men were here to get your belgian things & he xuan's spies possibly clearing out of heaven post black water & the wind and earth palaces empty. walking gingerly across the bruised earth. anyways this would be an animatic.

WAIT hold on. had a thought:

yin yu - the ballad of unremarkable derrick krueger by the garages: [My name is Derrick Krueger / The fans call me Der / Or they would, if I had fans] + [As the sky grows dim / Tell them I did my best / I was funny and kind / Please don’t let them forget]. waves my hands wildly

[caligulalotus]

i keep forgetting that most people do not, in fact, draw the shoe thieves in mostly yellow uniforms (does anyone?) and every time i see shoe thieves art with the blue uniforms with yellow stripes i have to sit for a second like ��wait when was this guy on the jazz hands”

[charaznablescanontoyota]

🎵 and derrick because. its derrick :)

ITS DERRICK!! my derrick playlist is one of my longest blb guy playlists lmao. let me dive in and grab 4 that make me insane (+ a bonus from ye olde sebderrick playlist)

low tide - the wonder years

i'm staring at the dust that's gathered on the fake plants i've given up, i can't keep the real thing living i watch the bluish glow of my shadow paint the far wall in the middle of the night, i'm watching korean baseball

mr. invisible - thank you scientist

when i say that you can count on me, it's true but it seems to me that i can't count on you

don't let me fall behind - jukebox the ghost

and aren't we all alone? well and far behind like i am sometimes don't treat me like the past, don't let me fall behind

the dissonance - stop.drop.rewind

can a man be more than just the sum (play the jukebox, four more chances) of the things he's overcome? (we're not scared to be the last ones dancing) drag yourself above the dissonance raise your voice if no one's listening you win by still existing

somewhere a judge - hop along

death, indiscriminate drags off the newborn buck with the broken leg in the shadow of conversations had while i was asleep not to mention the years of conversations you've had without me afternoon vanilla sun crawls away across the lawn through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
