Basically you had to leave the market and uproot your family if you wanted to stay employed in the industry. In my case I knew in advance the station group was switching services since they had just recently acquired the competition. In hindsight, it did seem a bit funny to me that after serving the non compete time, and then some I did work at the second company for a while. On my last day there the announcement came that the two companies were merging.

It's gotta be the shoes

I had to deal with the NC in Chicago as a traffic reporter. There were two companies in town at the time and both enforced the policy. So basically I had to find other employment for a year in order to make a move. The upside for me was I decided what I was doing between media jobs was more fun than dealing with the politics of my old job. I also figured out without the hour plus commute both ways I was coming out ahead of the game.

As someone who was hemmed in by Non Compete Clauses, I wish this came 25 years ago.

Evidently Monday night was the first time the Giants used the entrance https://www.mercurynews.com/2024/04/23/sf-giants-new-hollywood-like-lighting-catches-camilo-dovals-attention/

Imagine you're the Giants bullpen catcher and this happens. Fortunately he caught the ball in the dark, but not a great situation. I imagine some intern may received a stern talking to. (If indeed it was an intern in charge of the lights)

There's a movement afoot to start chanting right after Chicago picks their QB.

If he goes it will either be a five star rated prison or he'll be confined to Trump Tower with an ankle bracelet made of solid gold

There were several Democratic Primaries on the ballot as well.

It's the limo ride to his NJ golf course where he can ride a golf cart that takes up time.

Yet Jesse still thinks Trump is strong enough to endure the Presidency. If the Big Guy is cold, he needs to buy some Long John's, very simple, even a Republican could do it

I can see the Jesse Watters chyron now... TRUMP HELD HOSTAGE BY LIBERAL JUDGE

BTW Happy Disinfectant Injection Day to those who celebrate

I think he wants to be locked up. He wants to play the martyr.

Google maps shows part of the remaining right field wall from Forbes Field about a 15 minute walk from CM. I think home plate is at the entrance to Pitt Law School.

Only the best ....

You two need to get a room

Since most of our travel tends to be off season, I've had the luck of being in a MLB town when there's no one there. I've enjoyed walking around the Giants' Park in SF and Coors in Denver. We've done a couple of trips to Camden Yards in the last several years, I think it's a nice park to watch a game, especially in the upper level. Same with Petco(?) in San Diego. I liked the location, walking distance from our hotel on the river. I really need to get to a few minor league games near here. Norfolk, Richmond, Fredericksburg and Salem, possibly Lynchburg. The first three are within two hours, just need the motivation.

Pittsburgh has changed a lot from when I was very young living near there. They made the successful transition from a mill town to banking and medicine. My wife has a conference there in September, I'm looking forward to spending some more time there then

I was reading an article somewhere recently about what would be involved in jailing Trump. Security and what to do about Secret Service protection in a minimum security prison or Club Fed as we used to call it. Just wondering if there are servants quarters at Mar A Largo. Or confine him to a servants room in the Trump Tower. Better yet a trailer near his wife's grave in NJ

BTW the snarky side of me wonders why MAGAs get their Depends in a wad when folks like Taylor Swift (who hasn’t endorsed anyone) speaks out yet find themselves strangely quiet when over the hill, perverted actors do the same https://x.com/pabloreports/status/1782494487966585050?s=46&t=Hkcls71g8OYK4gqVoqRrnw

I thought Mich approved mail in absentee ballots a few years ago. Maybe just for us old geezers
