Joe Davis and John Smoltz with the all-Lansing broadcast booth for Yanks/Dodgers on Fox.

Also watched the first 2 of Clipped: The Donald Sterling Story on Hulu. Liking how it’s started and Ed O’Neill and Laurence Fishburne are great as Sterling and Doc Rivers.

Watched the first two episodes of The Acolyte. I like the Star Wars universe so I like the show. Can’t help but feel we’ve reached the point where all of the new Disney+ SW shows are sort of the same. Flying around from world to world trying to figure out the mystery bad guy while delving into the murky past of the main characters. Need more variety in story telling. Hard to tell much of a difference in this one from Mando, Boba, Obi-Wan, Ashoka. Andor is the only on that followed a different model.

Ah Briahna, the classic unemployed news tweet

Not everyone has hit 16 HR already this season. Only Andre Lipcius and that’s not just AAA but all of minor league baseball.

Maybe we can trade for this guy. Looks like a nice prospect.

Chris should have both of them killed to show the fans that he gives a damn. Gladiators using the home run pizza spear would send a strong message.

This isn’t a scandal. It’s a message to the rest of the league. Watch your kneecaps.

Sadly, I have a hard time trusting any economic data coming out of Washington these days. The Department of Labor and the Bureau of Labor Statistics are supposed to be non-biased and impartial. Maybe they are, but so is our Supreme Court. We have witnessed what has gone on there. If the supposed highest bar of fairness and justice can be corrupted, then any of these other institutions can. I keep asking myself if Trump were in office and all of these key data providing offices were housed by his appointees during an election year, would they manipulate the numbers to make him look better. Absolutely they would. Frankly, Democrats would be dumb not to take the same advantages when they have the power. There’s no such thing as cheating when someone else has rigged the game. We saw what happened when they went high, when the other guys went low. We got Trump.

Godspeed Buddy. I hope you find your dad.

This sounds like just a big misunderstanding. He was trying to help his girlfriend find her free spirit and thought that throwing her out a window would help. It could’ve easily happened to anyone.

I can’t project any specific moves but I’ll be shocked if Langdon doesn't make a few giant moves this summer. I just don’t see him coming in and slowly adding a piece here and a piece there. He’s going to try and make a big splash right away.

I wonder if the Steelers signing Sutton will have any impact on the Lions hope of getting some relief from the NFL for voiding his contract.

They can’t continue to let him pitch in the major leagues with these numbers. They need to send him down to work on his stuff and figure things out. The only positive about this tailspin is that nobody will claim him now when he hits waivers.

I’ll settle for a second hit.

Alex Lange has had 4 hitless innings in his last 4 outings in Toledo and hasn’t walked a batter since going down to the Hens. Have to assume he will be back up very soon.

I can’t see anyone putting in a claim for Wentz with the current steak he’s on. He’s completely imploded giving up 16 ER in his last 6 outings.

Brianna Joy Gray is a curiously unique natural talent.

There’s nothing wrong with Zegras. He’s as good as you think he is What’s wrong is the lack of overall talent on the wing and blue line for the Ducks. They have correctly taken best player available when they’ve drafted high and they now have Zegras, Leo Carlsson, Mason McTavish, and Cutter Gauthier all at Center. That’s a massive logjam of Center talent that they need to trade from to address other areas. I think it’s really smart to dangle the best one that has the highest trade value and also happens to be the oldest. He’s got 2 more years under a good deal. They will get a kings ransom of young players and picks from someone.

I watched WWF back in the 80’s but I’m definitely not a wrestling fan. Loved “Iron Claw”. Thought both Zac Efron and the guy from Mindhunter were great.

Posted this in the wrong thread earlier. Talk picking up of Anaheim listening to offers on Trevor Zegras. The price would be very high but he just turned 23 and is a superstar talent. I wonder if Stevie has any interest.

I hope his agent is saying no freaking way unless an extension is signed.

Isn’t he still facing NFL discipline? He did not play well enough last year for a team to take a chance on him. This is bad PR along with the bad play.

Thinking about being able to start Tarik Skubal in a potential a wild card game is exciting too.
