Edvinsson signed his ELC!

I'm confused. Le Pen lost the popular vote but didn't win the presidency?

Country over party

Let’s put it in perspective. We put up with you.

4/23

Tork will never play another game at 3rd. You have to think about him in 2-3 years. It would hinder his development and he's more important than Candelario having a terrible month.

A lot of Ws for liberal democratic values today

Fuck Le Pen voters. Who cares what motivates scum?

Gotta start somewhere!

That was the platonic ideal of a Javy Baez strikeout.

macron cruises to an easy win in france.

I dont have a problem with playing Haase in left. But at some point, you have to move Tork up in the lineup. I get that he's a rookie and you're trying to protect him some, but if the goal is to win ballgames, its the right thing to do.

OK, if Barnhart gives you a double with no outs, then you HAVE to score him guys

I disagree with nothing you have stated here, but you're responding based on what you know now, not what was happening at the time this reporter apparently told another reporter that there was no comparison between the economic plans of the two 2016 candidates. Hillary did not have any grand plan either. The obvious differences, Hillary probably said she would raise taxes on the wealthy where Trump said everyone needed a tax cut. They probably both said investment in energy was needed, where Hillary pushed for more green energy and Trump said we should continue to drill. Hillary was basically running a status quo campaign as she was riding the coattails of Obama. So while she probably said 'infrastructure' and 'jobs', I don't remember any specifics in what she'd do outside of 'make everything better'.

This is simply amazing.

except the reality is that the Trump admin did send up almost no legislative initiatives, economic or otherwise. And it's not just Trump, heck the GOP is now so policy driven (not) that they've even abandoned the pretense of platforms. You can argue about the value of candidate position papers, but there is no comparison at all between the GOP and the Dems in terms of the their policy shop - at least beyond the anti-gay, anti-franchise, and Christian fascist stuff.

#fakebalance - that's ironic. He's showing his bias in claiming 'both sides'. Bullshit that Hillary's plan was 'comprehensive'. Here is the likely truth on both plans - they likely talked about many of the same things and talked at a very high level on how they would improve each of those issues. Democrats read Trump's and inferred everything they don't like about the opposition into those high level categories and scoffed that it was fluff. Republicans did the same thing with Hillary's.

Ian Flemming

I just watched the highlights...man, Skubal looks good. He is so long, and I am no scout but that delivery lòoks so repeatable, he doesn't have to muscle up to throw 96 or 97, it just flows, and they had no chance against him. If your dad had seen him in 1972 he would have said "this kid looks like a 20 game winner", he really does, that is what they used to look like. He looks like Steve Carlton. Al Avila stole this guy in broad daylight.

I feel bad for you folks who don’t have the choice to have a Dan-and-Jim radio overlay on the video like we out-of-towners do. It seems like they’ve really ramped up the in-booth and in-stands interviews with non-baseball randos this year. How many innings did they spend with Matt Stafford? Two, maybe? And who was the one kid they were talking to in the fourth inning? Some high school football guy or something? There were several other instances of that as well—every time I looked up it was the guy in the stands sticking his microphone in yet another who-knows-who-that-is’s face. And the camera lingers on these interviews more than on what’s happening on the field. I mean, it’s almost as though the baseball game is secondary to the whole broadcast. If I weren’t able to hear Dan and Jim talking about the game itself over these inexplicable video choices, I’d definitely be tuning into the opposing team’s telecast, just to avoid all the nonsense. The Tigers have a clear claim to being the 30th-best baseball telecast in the majors.

Trump would have demanded he sign an NDA and the Gospels never would have been published.

British upper class twit kinky and British working class kinky are also very different from each other

Just got back from the game—I can’t wait until I’m able to tell my future grandchildren that I was there to see Angel DeJesus’ major league debut. Unforgettable!

Here’s a great video of Dan calling the hit.

By the way, Dave, how’s your Sister? 😉

De Jesus is just alright with me
