Where you thinking? I know there's a coffee shop in St Ignace right across the street from the lake.

At the Mud Hens game Saturday, Wingenter looked good, except for the 3 run HR to Clemens in the first - They fought back to 3-2, then brought Blair Calvo in - which was a disaster. He wasn't helped by a 2B error by Rizzo at 1B, but gave up 4. Game was shortened to 7-innings because of the rain delay - but at least I got to check an item off the bucket list.

Kody Clemens 3 run HR in first

At the Mud Hens game tonight. 2 hr rain delay

That's amazing ... & more than a little scary.

My wife & I watched that a few months ago. To me the only reason it lasted as long as it did is efficiency. The Koresh followers had ONE person making the decisions - nuts as he was. The gov't could not, or WOULD not, let one person run the show - & it showed.

What is this Internet you all speak of? 😁

Ah...I cut my cable 4 years ago & have just this season started streaming games, so I've been kinda out of the loop.

I don't know if this has been discussed, but isn't it strange for the MLB Draft to start on Sunday?

Munising also has a cool glass-bottom boat shipwreck tour. Definitely check out Whitefish Point & Tahquamenon, if you haven't seen it before. Depending on which way you decide to go home, you can take 94 S and check out Kitch-iti-kipi, which is a cool spring-fed lake. Then head back to the bridge on US-2. & if you happen to drive by Gaylord on I-75 on the way home, honk!

Could this theoretically allow someone at the sports books to try get rich quick by providing information on certain players?

My oldest grandson has his younger brother in his phone as "Tallywacker"

I hope Houston can replicate that - though I wonder if the fact that Hutch was commanding double-teams helped him greatly. Of course, if they don't double Hutch this year, his numbers will likely improve too.

I love that they incorporated the old school logo.

Thank God France lost

I think the Willie Hernandez trade falls into that category too, although it was a 2-for-2 swap. Hernandez had not, up to that point, ever looked like he ended up looking in 1984, & Bergman became such a clutch piece for that team - but @ the time I was bummed they traded John Wockenfuss.

Ugh. That explains it .. I guess it's game replays.

Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, but I haven't been in the Tigers threads much because I don't watch many games. I dropped the package close to 10 years ago & never added it back again, BUT... My wife gifted me MLB TV for the rest of the season for Father's Day - & I"m wondering how the blackout rules work. They were in Minnesota yesterday, but I still couldn't get the live feed of the game. I ended up watching the replay of Saturday's loss, just because I haven't seen a game in I don't know how long.

What on earth do the player's pay union dues for? I can't believe they are not challenging this

That would be the easy way, but as leadership goes he's, shall we say, a little finicky. 1 moment that's the way to do it - the next it's not. I've decided it's not worth the added stress to my mind to have that conversation every time I travel.

Hotel charges. Every single time I book a hotel thru my work, I used the company card. I then get to the hotel, they ask for a card for incidentals - I reiterate that this is NOT for the charge of the stay, but only for incidentals, & they say yes. I get home & there's an email, with the receipt attached, charging the entire week to my card. Ugh. I will get reimbursed - but for the love of God, can we figure this out!

Well, the argument is RB is low value in terms of length of service - not impact. Do I spend that much on a position with such a low average length of career. I just think RB gets the lion's share of the grief when it comes to that, but none of the positions have LONG careers. Get the best players & generally speaking you'll be better off.

I don't think it has to be all one way or the other. Positional value is not all everything & it's not irrelevant either. It matters. It's something to consider, however if it becomes the only consideration, or even THE most important consideration when drafting players, you will find your organization in trouble.

I never knew there was an actual song - To this day that's what I think of every time I hear someone talk about "Ya gotta have heart"

My son does that with Ryobi stuff, at least the smaller tools.
