  1. if he swung at that one, he was late.
  2. No, you just Sprung Ahead 1 hour and 1 minute last night. Goofball.
  3. They're gonna keep him until the last year of the contract.
  4. THIS GUY HATES CANS ! STAY AWAY FROM THE CANS ! THERE'S CANS IN THERE TOO MORE CANS !
  5. Will be able to watch Mud Hens games in 2027? Just as the Tigers will be starting a peak. Losing Skubal will hurt, but only a little bit since he's a 1 out of 5 guy. Starting pitching is not as important as it once was. Tigers kind of proved that last year. But if the Mets don't win a Series this year or next, Cohen will let Skubal/Boras name their price. If he looks anything like he did in 2024 again, that's going to be at least 60 million a year. But always remember. Washington lost their superstar player, an everyday player and then immediately won a World Series. Bryce is still ringless. Build a good organization and you can survive losing one player. I'm telling you -- no MLB season. This will be an ugly one. I wish we could eat cake frosting as a meal.
  6. The players are paid very well, they can survive it. The owners will find ways to write it off and they won't lose a thing. Especially with this Billionaires-First country of ours, especially now.
  7. The amount of greed on both sides here is immeasurable. You know this. Neither side will give on anything until they piss a whole season away. They don't care about the game. They don't care about the fans. They don't care about the cities and businesses that'll lose money. They only care about themselves. We mean nothing.
  8. I don't think there will actually be a season. Just as Greene/Meadows/Carp/Keith get good and Max Clark and Kevin McGonigle are getting read to break out.
  9. They should get a couple of players at the Trade Deadline for Skubal - who the Mets or Dodgers will pay 60 million a year in 2027 and beyond.
  10. He was 95, perhaps his heart just gave out. But Hantavirus. Don't hear that much anymore. Maybe their dogs came across rodent feces in their paws and somehow the paws touched something she ate. What's scary is that people think they have the flu, and the flu has been in the news a lot lately.
  11. I could see Tork being the 66% DH vs. righties and the 1B vs. lefties. Don't give up on a 25 year old who did not have a season the year he was drafted and got called up too early. His failures are not all his fault.
  12. Dude, contain yourself. You look like a Price Is Right contestant.
  13. It's Trade Deadline Collapse Week !!!! Now Stevie can get some more draft picks because "we're just not ready". Weeeeeee !!!!!!!!
  14. He seems done-zo. It's a shame. We saw flashes. Good luck with the Rays, Matt. I mean, The Rays will have 1 and 2 in the Cy Young race with Faedo and Manning.
  15. That's across the street from me. My house is bone-dry.
  16. Who gets cut off the roster? Kreidler? If he was on the 40-man, I'd say he's got a real shot, but not so sure. There's been a lot of Spring Training All Stars that never did much after April 1st. He hasn't been a regular CF since 2017 in A-Ball. Looks like they are going to need someone to play Center with Vierling and Meadows both having career-ending, life-threatening injuries. I only say that because it will seem like a relief when both only miss 3 months.
  17. Wow. I can't see them playing today
  18. Guys, I really don't think they're playing today
  19. I'm thinking that they aren't going to wait until 2 or 2:30, they're just going to call it. They call it quick in ST
  20. People are buying Fyre Fest 2 tickets. The location where it's happening says there is no event scheduled. But people are still buying tickets. How stupid is Gen Z? Just how stupid? It's frightening.
  21. Our station does a segment every weekday at Noon called "Trinity of Women" (brought to you by Trinity Health). We play 3 female artist and stretch a bit out of our format to salute the great women in music history. Anyway, the great session bassist Carol Kaye is about to turn 90 on 3/24 - so I took a shot and emailed her and asked her about songs we could play in her honor for her birthday. She emailed me back - right away! How cool is that? She's got a long long list of credits too. Hard to narrow it down to 3. She said in the email she pivoted away from rock music because of the Manson murders. Carol had played on Beach Boys records, knew Dennis Wilson. Manson and his followers lived in Wilson's house for a time. Charlie wrote some songs, the Beach Boys covered one of them. He had a demo that Wilson took to producer Terry Melcher, who thought the songs were okay, even though Manson was not a good singer. Melcher set up a meeting at his house, -- on Cielo Drive. While Melcher thought Manson could have been a decent songwriter, after meeting him, he was skeptical and then while visiting Manson at Spahn Ranch he saw Manson (and followers) beat the snot out of a drunk stuntman and Melcher was out on Manson, which pissed him off. Manson was unaware that Melcher (and Candice Bergen) had sold that house to Roman Polanski. The victims were not the targets that night. I can understand why Carol said "that's enough for me, see you later".
  22. Almost all of those biopics are garbage. I am seeing a lot of non-truths in the new Bob Dylan biopic and he did a table read for it. What? If you want a good biopic that is fairly accurate, according to just about everyone who is still around - Love & Mercy (about Brian Wilson). Okay, the hairpiece that Paul Giamatti wears is a bit much, but he did a lot of the things that Eugene Landy actually did to Brian. He really did help him at first, but then he got greedy and took advantage of him.
  23. Well, Big Star has a great song called "Thirteen" but it's written from the point of view of a kid. I think you could assume that was the meaning behind "You're Sixteen". It's a song written from the point of view of a teenager. I mean, Johnny Cash never actually shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.
