I think I saw you on a clear September night, from my back porch in Minneapolis, shooting up amidst the Northern Lights. Or perhaps someone laced my cigar with a psychedelic

I will dispute that McKinstry provides no value to the roster. 0.8 bWAR, 1.1 fWAR last year. Perfectly fine for a role player. This may not show up in the raw batting stats, but he was a plus plus baserunner and plus fielder. And the last time I deep dived WAR metrics, versatility wasn't really factored in. The fact that you can bounce him between 3-4 positions in a single game allows you to maximize matchups elsewhere. I'm not sure if there is a place for him on the 2025 team. The bar could be higher, and his modest raise in arbitration could play a role. But to say he has no value is not true.

5 LOSSES IN A ROW FOR THE JETS !!!!!

Goff benched!!

Fun game. So who are we firing this week?

Yeah..............**** CHRIS CHRISTIE !

How many games in a row have they won?

If Keith’s defense ends up anywhere near average, leave him alone. If you can keep his kind of bat in the middle infield, that’s an advantage.

I think George Carlin was the best comedian ever.

Tell you what, though—for an October where not only do I no longer have any skin in he game, but the teams that are left are two behemoths which is like rooting for Goliath vs. Goliath—this has been a hell of a playoff season.

TBF, 2012 Romad had a much better candidate to vote for. While I didn't vote for McCain or Romney, I wasn't in fear for my country if they won.

As a side, my son sent pictures of the line at his Westland precinct today. Very impressive. I also love the "I voted stickers" Michigan is using, he picked up the entire set since on one was manning the table.

I'll say this: if you are conservative in a swing state longing for a new and improved GOP after this, especially knowing that Kamala Harris will in all likelihood be constrained by a GOP Senate... What is there to lose? On a purely pragmatic level, how isn't the choice obvious?

Martin kinda makes my point: Allentown (and Lehigh County) are seen as suburban in nature outside of Philly, and Allentown is of outsized importance with respect to Puerto Rican population in PA. It's not your father's SEPA. And in a race where, based on reporting and his campaigns own words, he's depending on Hispanics to vote for him, these comments can make a pretty difference on the margins (at a minimum)

Oh, I fully see how they characterize centrist Democrats as begin "far left", and it drives me bonkers. It's all branding and it works with their base. But it's not true, and I don't know why Democrats don't address it it in a more visible way, because by appearing to ignore it, they're ceding that point to Republicans, and that hurts the Democratic Party with the middle.

Wow, I guess their strategy in these last 10 days is amp up the racism. I just saw one of the most racist political ads I have ever seen from John James. If people treated Blacks the way he treats Mexicans would he even care?

Who is that speaking? I know it's not Rob Schneider, but he's trying to be.

But yes, it's Kamala Harris that is inviting violence. GMAFB

Ohtani will play in game #3.

I'll be honest, the Arthur Blank endorsement was actually quite heartening. Not every billionaire is a ****heel.

Titans are so bad.

And I think that turns off a lot of moderates.

By the end of the year, Jack Fox will be throwing a ball to Hogan Hatten. On 2nd and 6.

Bill James is another one...but I forgive him.

28 down, 22 to go. Still 41 minutes to go.

Is that the first DPI against us this season? I can't remember another one off hand.

This team desperately misses Hutch and they will make some sort of deal.........................

6-11 Here we come !!!!

Lions might score 50 today. This game will be a good chance to get Tim Patrick some reps.

I agree completely here. It was a singular failure for the Dems, and the gift that has just kept on giving for bad politics in the USA, that the Dems couldn't draw the line when Clinton lied under oath. I don't care how venal the sin actually was, how popular he was, and how craven or unjustified Starr was, that was a line that should not have been crossed, and once it was, crow-barred open the door for where we are today.

Wasn’t this widely considered to be a pretty open playoff field with no real obvious favorites? I think the lack of any 100 win teams probably had something to do with that (on top of the fact that it’s baseball and chalk doesn’t always apply). And here we are, 1 seed vs 1 seed.

Loveland should be suspended a game for his role in the fight. The rivalry needs adults to be re-injected and 6-6 seasons present the perfect time to claim a moral high ground.

I wouldn't have minded Mitt for himself, but by the end of Bush II, I was already soured on the GOP in toto and have been wanting/hoping to see that party crash and burn completely enough so something useful could could re-emerge ever since

You know nothing can ever compare to the strange psychological and emotional cocktail that was flowing through my veins for our last 50 games of the season. I thought the end of this game was interesting, but I never felt my head was going to explode or rainbows would start shooting out of my rear end to propel me into orbit around the Earth like when the Tigers were rampaging this year.

Bad as they were they go into the half with a lead. Kind of shows you had bad MSU is too.

If they were truly stifling their opinion staff, why have the following articles run? If anything else, this has allowed their pages to show more pro-Harris editorials and drawing attention to their opinions page to read them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/10/26/washington-post-endorses-kamala-harris-satire/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/10/25/post-editorial-board-wapo-endorsement-2024/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/10/25/washington-post-presidential-endorsement/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/10/25/post-columnist-no-endorsement-2024-trump-harris/

I've been seeing this take a lot from journalists in the wake of WaPo's **** up... But if consumers aren't satisfied and want to send a message, what other means are there to get it acrossrd? Journalism is very important, but the industry's inability for self-reflection is a big reason we are here.

Penn State crowds always welcome sexual deviants.

great pics!

We had a great time. The girls (and us) got to scream “JACK” all night.

I don't think your view is accurate as a woman who was assaulted as a child. They're men in power, men in your neighborhood, at your church, your coworker, your health care provider, a guy you went to school with, possibly even a family member, or the former President of the United States. Too many have the idea that "they" are these crazy slime balls that hide in the shadows and attack strangers. I'm sure there are those, but many more who blend in to every day life that you'd never suspect. That's how they do what they do. Unfortunately, too many like 1776 who think there's a time limit on it, or that you have to "prove it", or that they're being vulgar or manly or locker room talk.

I didn't realize until recent years how many women have been victims of sexual assualt. We probably all know people who have been through it. The vast majority of men have never sexually assaulted anyone, so most of the attacks have been made by serial predators. Because most men don't do stuff like that, they might find it hard to believe how common it is, so they think the stories are made up.

and I will tell you that as a woman, I didn’t say a word about a sexual assault that happened to me until 50 years after it happened. edited to delete my second paragraph, and to say, the hell with this. Sexual assaults happen. Sometimes with witnesses, more often without… and because you know that the pushback and ridicule you encounter if you dare bring it up, often you just bury it in your own mind.

I believe he thinks if it’s not witnessed or corroborated, then we must assume it never happened. 🙂 … because, you know, proof. ** (** every woman knows what this feels like. Our word means nothing)

When he said on tape he liked to grab them by the pussy. You?

He looks like a hitter. So many of them don't, but he does. He has that classic balanced stance, stands tall with square shoulders and the bat seems quick. Of everyone who posts here I am by far the least qualified to assess talent, truly, no one else is even close.
