That would be great. I struggle with all of those things. Well, except the oil. I just wait for the car to "ding", and then in it goes for service.

agree there. Maybe in all the general controversy about it,  POC's box office numbers got lost in the noise because I don't have any recollection of it having been a big box office hit either. I wonder if that includes overseas?

And this week, the film has the highest ever domestic gross for an R-rated feature. The former record holder? Just our lord and savior Jesus Christ. The Passion of the Christ held the record for more than 20 years at $370 million. According to Deadline, the two week gross for D&W is now $395 million domestic.

I'm not a marvel fan but I assume this flick is also benefiting from lack of competition?

Probably. I don't really know. I haven't been to a movie in ages. LOL! I just thought it was funny that Deadpool passed Passion Of The Christ. I never would have guessed that was the #1 R-rated movie.

Deadpool and Wolverine is the highest earning R-rated movie of all time. It passed.... "Passion Of the Christ". 

I'm not sure lineup construction is our problem right now.

They need to broadcast more team handball and rugby 7s.  Those look like fun.

I would have guessed 75-80. She looks awful.

Are you just going by how she looks on The Bear? She's supposed to look awful. She's playing a trainwreck of a mom.

Eddie Murphy is having himself a fairly decent late-career revival. Good for him.

He's done that a few times. Every time he starts to fade, out comes a Boomerang or Dreamgirls or Dolemite to bring him right back.

The only music news that matters is that there's a new Eminem album this Friday.

If Parker is right, he does change the game with his speed and defense.  Hope we get this version.

I assume this means Baddoo is getting the boot? My son is wearing his jersey to the game tonight. LOL!

Outside of Maeda, I don't have many complaints about the starting pitching this season. It's the lineup and bullpen that are the problem.

The Reds are coming off a sweep in Yankee stadium so im sure they are going to get swept this weekend at Comerica. 

My son with tickets to Great American Ballpark tonight is going to be in for a surprise.

My wife does, but that's a different story.

Sounds like a Ryan Reynolds situation.

Skeeter Barnes.  The guy could play anywhere, didn't hurt you defensively and was a solid hitter. 

He'd probably be hitting 3rd on the 2024 Tigers.

You're probably right, even though he's 67 years old.

Saw AJR with my daughter last night, she absolutely loved it and I was thoroughly entertained as well.  Quite a production for a band that I would have never thought could fill LCA.  

Every AJR song I've heard is super catchy. I wish my daughter would have wanted to go to that show...

The only thing that annoys be about the app is if I'm watching the pregame, it doesn't automatically roll me to the game. It kicks me back to the Bally home screen and I have to select the game. It's also moderately annoying that I had to select just one market/team. In Toledo with cable/DirecTV, you would get Tigers, Guardians and Reds all included. With the app, you have to pick one. Not a major deal, but annoying on days when the Tigers are off or played early.

Any other way is the wrong way.  But other opinions may vary.

Where's Whitaker?  It looks like they lined up alphabetically according to uniform number.

"Alphabetically according to uniform number"? Have you been drinking already today?

They should move on from both.  But I'm not sure who replaces them.

McKinstry was pretty effective yesterday out of the pen. As a bonus, it would keep his bat out of the lineup.

Flip down glasses!  You see those, kids?  That's when baseball was baseball.

Trammell, what in the world are you doing with the glasses on your hat?

Wanna feel better? Look how Eduardo Rodriguez is doing for the Diamondbacks. $80 million for 4 years and he still hasn't pitched for them. He's hurt. I'm glad we didn't extend him...

Problem is, for every bullet dodged we have like three Jordon Zimmermans.

I have done it a number of times. Make sure you use PSA there are cheaoer options but the industry grades their quality differently. I would check with a local card shop to see if you can piggy back their shipment or send 10 or more cards to get a better rate. Last time I sent out to PSA it was a 6 month turn around.

Definitely using PSA. I really only have three cards that might be worth four figures. Everything else is in the $75-$150 range. My plan was to submit two of the three and see how that goes, before sending a bunch of others. I don't care too much about how long it takes. I'm not in any hurry.

Has anyone submitted baseball cards to PSA for grading? I have a few cards that seem like they could be worth it, but the process isn't cheap. The younger me actually made good decisions though and put them in hard plastic cases quite some time ago, so they actually do appear to be in perfect condition.
