Not really anyone, sad to say. I am a talk radio junky so I just listen to sports talk radio anymore.

All the conservative talking heads have turned to worshipping the orange cow...... Hook line and sinker.

I used to be a Savage listener, he went all in and sold his soul for Trump.

The wording is very important for China, because Taiwan....

LOL what the Hell was that? SNL?

The first (and most important) law added would be to outlaw Canadian 🥓. However not the McDonald’s round version of the 🥓 it would become the North, North America’s officially licensed 🥓

Nothing strikes fear in a enemy more than a keyboard cowboy!

I always feel that way when the 1st spring training game is on tv. Around here brown and dead but that Florida grass looks so green and beautiful.

I would have pinned you more of a Ty Cobb Tris Speaker kind of era. 😉

My brother had a paid subscription to this and Soldier Of Fortune magazine when we were teenagers. Seems fitting now.

I wouldn’t mind some home grown with some flare. Just gotta walk the walk.

Washington, in his will freed all of his slaves when Martha died: https://www.mountvernon.org/george-washington/slavery/washingtons-1799-will/ In accordance with state law, George Washington stipulated in his will that elderly slaves or those who were too sick to work were to be supported throughout their lives by his estate. Children without parents, or those whose families were unable to see to their education were to be bound out to masters and mistresses who would teach them reading, writing, and a useful trade, until they were ultimately freed at the age of twenty-five. Washington’s will stated that he took these charges to his executors very seriously: "And I do moreover most pointedly, and most solemnly enjoin it upon my Executors...to see that this clause respecting Slaves, and every part thereof be religiously fulfilled at the Epoch at which it is directed to take place; without evasion, neglect or delay, after the Crops which may then be on the ground are harvested, particularly as it respects the aged and infirm."

Putin knows exactly what he is doing. Him recognizing two breakaway regions in eastern Ukraine and taking them. This will look as a concession because it was not a full invasion. They will whether the sanctions and in the end declare victory.

Haha, yeah about that kid......

Tigers version

Yeah they think maybe he went into the Witness protection program. Wild times to be alive!

I posted this in the bar and grill section but wanted to make sure you guys get a chance to watch this if you haven't yet. So with baseball not happening anytime soon I revisted this with my 13 yo son, he enjoyed it. If you have not watched it is a great baseball story I knew nothing about. I mean Big League Chew was invented in the bat boys parents kitchen? You can't make this stuff up!
