Has Jack Morris or Matt Shepherd said "chip away" yet?

white flag this mutha

This inning is starting well.

I like Tork hitting doubles. Its very good.

This guy ain't missing the strike zone.

I like how efficient our ABs were in the bottom of the 1st

I do not love starting the day behind.

I think the t-shirt should be "Dominican Fidrych"

yeah, that all pisses me off in a low-burn sort of way. The Trump stars and stripes flag or the stars replaced with crosses flags or the thin blue line flags...all not great.

Got reports yesterday that the in-laws who favor the strict evangelical line that the vaccine was developed too rapidly and is the work of Zog, etc. are hospitalized with COVID. I think a strong Nelson Muntz reaction is in order. I don't wish pain and suffering on them but if they do survive, perhaps they will think a bit differently of science.

"were all making choices" was his line wasn't it?

Fireworks on memorial day? That's weird. People really don't understand civics at all. Weirdly, my wife and daughter were able to go shopping today and it wasn't even holiday hours.

Human garbage espionage agent that cloaked himself as a friend to civil rights and libertarians

Love it

All the people protesting besmirched got it. Black Lives do not in fact matter. Kill them, enslave them.

So, the average person who says BLM is not tied to any organization. Its something that HUMAN fucking beings should be able to agree upon. BLM must be some shadowy Soros-driven Jew thing in which space lasers are directed at our genitals or something in this other narrative.

Crazy lady

He can't have been impressed by the 20th Century.

Having a very similar youth softball experience this weekend. Jackasses ruin everything.

I think I can agree with the ideals of Christianity and other major religions without even having to adopt the stringent "lets blow up a girl's school so they aren't defiled by knowledge" rule sets of the extremists. As one writer put it: it keeps the peasants in line. It doesn't hurt that the alcoholics and the other 12 step programs have that rock to hang onto in the rough waters. If I have a religion its a soft-cultural Christianity (I love me some Christmas) guided by the Enlightenment principle that we should always be striving to reduce the suffering of those truly in need and that Science and Reason should be used to the benefit of humankind. I've seen enough of the terrible that man can do to know that there is a lot of awful on this planet. There are quite a few Churchill quotes that I liked about all this. That its a wicked thing to take away a man's hope. Some others as well. He was not much of a fall on his knees bible man but he saw and lived through a lot.

crooks?

BLM is a terrorist group?

National...should be natural. Spellchek got me. My assumption is that if God is there, he's been punking us. You have to appreciate the small wonders but the big horrors are pretty bad.

This couldn't be more spot on with the last 4 months of war could it? The rebels have Kalashnikov-based weapons for pete's sake. I'm so there for the Stellen Skarsgard.

There are ways in which we are giving a LOT of help to the Ukrainians that we have not given another country since 1942-45. That goes for intelligence, that goes for weapons technology. I think its a given that Russia and China are salivating over the potential to get sources and methods and tech from that when the dust settles. That said, the Ukrainians are not getting everything and they are pushing for everything because that's their card to play. Our interests align with their defeating Putin in such a way as it cripples his ability to do this again for a long while. If it ends up with him being forced out or further isolated, all the better. If it teaches Xi a lesson in better manners equals better partnerships, also very good.
