So much for free speech

Growing up as a Pirate fan with Bob Prince doing play by play was a trip. Unlike guys like Ernie, Prince had his own lingo and phrases. There were times he'd get into a story about something or another and you'd "And we were having dinner, single to right by Groat....and so and so said...." I can handle Benetti just fine and I enjoy most of his thoughts that come out of left field. It's part of the culture he grew up in and I appreciate it. Straight play by play on the TV, where you can see what's happening, and good Lord there are enough replays to catch up, is a bit like listening to someone describing paint drying

Yet, the "71 O's lost to the Pirates in the World Series

Maybe that's what caused the depression. Another crook with insider trading

The only President Trump might have gotten along with may have been Buchanan. possibly Andrew Johnson,

The second largest religion in each state

Trump was at the dedication of the Theodore Ford Presidential Museum. Perhaps if he did chat with the dead President maybe he should have asked him how he feels about the country's chief executive destroying National Parks in the west. Drill Baby Drill

Folks that usually post that have their own case of Trump Delusional Syndrome. Unfortunately there is no known cure

Maybe Washington was right. Political Parties are evil (he didn't exactly say that but opposed parties) The entire election system needs to be blown up and started over. Unfortunately in 10 years we'll be back to the same place and conundrum.

Whatever happened to the Big Tents?

Put this in every D's election ad. In heavy rotation

So called Conservatives want to control women's bodies from the cradle to the grave

We've got a seven way race for the chance to go after Congressman Newport News Shipyard. It's the best argument I've seen for ranked choice voting

Did Chris ask about Verlander when Harris told him about the Valdez signing

Alito is a serial liar and Thomas should have been impeached long ago for all the bribes he's taken. Kavanaugh is just a frat boy with no original thoughts. These are the best and brightest jurors we can find? John Jay is rolling in his grave

My one question to those concerned with the trans issue is why does it seem that the question only goes one way? We have a distant relative who is female but identifies as male. I'm not sure where that particular issue stands on the transitioning process or if there is one. But no one seems to raise much objection in regards to sports. Or maybe it's my circle is too small to really pay attention.

Complete quote Davis to Benny Johnson: “I just want dumb justices who will fall in line. Right? And not justices who think they're the smartest people in the room like Amy Coney Barrett or justices who care only about their image like John Roberts.”
