  1. Dan Quayle of all people could get him to show up.
  2. I was reading too fast but I at first thought this said that in the first round, the division winner plays the LLWS winner. It would make for quite a spectacle. Get on that Rob Manfred. And be sure to get the bookies and touts to fix the games so the kids have a chance.
  3. The Athletic hit on Al Avila being written by Ken Rosenthal was 1000% done so that junior guy Cody Stavenhagen didn't lose his access.
  4. My colleague was watching that and the Russians he overheard were like "welp, I guess we should break out the clear liquids because our day is over"
  5. The crank UK press has some insane report of a poll in which 8 in 10 UK citizens would take Vladdie up on his offer of free land in Russia and move to Russia. Ok, then... lets see them do that.
  6. My emotional Tigeranon hypothesis: The Union was angry at the Tigers playing around with Riley Greene service time and they sandbagged to protest. Absolutely absurd of course.
  7. Umpires hate Grossman apparently
  8. and tied
  9. well done Javy and Miggy with the unprecedented 1st inning run scoring on the road. I hear that has almost never been done before.
  10. I'll bet Boston has a 4K broadcast for this game and Hacky regional sports net owned by a gambling company won't be providing that quality of broadcast.
  11. Texas GOP: There is the door if you want to vote to leave the US. We'll be coming for NASA, Fort Hood, Fort Bliss, all the Navy and Air Force bases, all the federal contracts for the defense industries. Good luck being Mexico with more white people.
  12. This is what is going to happen Trump and company will blame this guy and try to dodge blame.
  13. Crap ab by Candelarish
  14. Sorry, that was me watching the luscious, wondrous 4k broadcast for a fanbase that actually gives a crap. The yo-ho announcers were excessively drinking Guinness and fist fighting and talking about their mothers and their cousin Petey the cawp. But when they weren't doing that, they were dissing Baez swinging at the first two sliders of that AB.
  15. Boston mocks Baez
  16. Boston broadcast in 4k…what the fuck are we even doing with this degenerate Vic Tandy/Golds Gym bullshit?
  17. Only scoring 1 or fewer is our favorite thing. I hope we break that pattern of despair tonight.
  18. That is a great ad
  19. Launchers, launderers its just a couple different blocks of code difference
  20. I like this We need to put more pressure on these weird Russian enclaves. They are the ones committing war crimes.
  21. Blockchain currency is really just about freedom.
  22. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/oakland-county/2022/06/20/russian-weapons-fuel-pontiac-gang-war-feds-say/7543099001/?gnt-cfr=1v I do not have a digital sub to the Detnews so if anyone could gist this that would be great.
  23. What we know: Ukraine survived a brutal firsts few months Russia has decided to ramp up brutalization efforts but do so in a focused way. Basically to concentrate on areas within the range of their artillery. Ukraine has been dealing with massive casualties of its own as it fights these brutalization efforts. Its not all sunshine for them. Both sides are dealing with morale issues because of these casualties. The heady days of March and April have slipped away as this becomes a slog. Lots of Western volunteers came in March/April. Not all of them are staying. Lots of adrenaline junkies in the World but certain death has limited appeal. Ukraine may have chased the Russians away from Kyiv but they have limited capability to force the Russians out of places elsewhere until they build sufficient offensive combat power. For some reason ($$$/kompromat/idiocy) German and other powers in Europe are grinding out the release of weapons for Ukraine. Ukraine would love for EU/NATO to actually join the war so they will spin all sorts of things to get nofly, humanitarian corridors, etc. to protect their flanks. Prediction: Ukraine will cut a path to the Black Sea this Summer. Fall will see both sides exhausted and reverting to stalemate. Russia will have to mobilize more of its population to conduct offensives. Ukraine will need much more money and resources to survive. Inflation and elections will be need to be weathered by Western friends of Ukraine. Bitch-ass US and Western consumers will say it costs too much to fill their gas tanks so they will vote to reduce aide to Ukraine.
