  1. Listening to last nights game I learned that Chris Fetter majored in psychology. Two psych majors in the same dugout isn’t everyday stuff.
  2. Had Javy not watched the ball and run out of the box he would have been safe at second.
  3. I don’t believe the organization will eat Baez contract for a while yet.
  4. Pete says pencils are still cool.
  5. If we’re referring to politics here, Manfred already paved the way by moving the AS Game out of Atlanta. That was an ‘in your face’ political move.
  6. Her VP pick is going to critical imho.
  7. So how much will the Biden-Harris signs/stickers, etc., be worth 50 years from now?
  8. Best line of the day… “I was having coffee with [wife] Katie a couple of weeks after I was elected to the Hall of Fame,” Leyland said. “And I casually said, ‘Katie, can you believe in your wildest dreams that I’ve been elected to the Hall of Fame?’ “And Katie replied, ‘Jim, you’re not in my wildest dreams.’”
  9. Do you honestly believe Harris is open to pursuing a playoff spot this year?
  10. I’m not a fan of Cooper at all at the state level here. However, I agree with your point overall. I recall Kerry choosing John Edward’s as his ticket to the south VP and that didn’t come close to working. Edward’s was trying to put the cart before the horse. Cooper would be a wise choice. He is a seasoned and polished product. Cooper was going to be on the national stage at some point anyway. His track record would stand up well beside most every opponent out there. Viewed as a progressive in NC he’d likely be viewed as a moderate nationally which would play well in the center.
  11. Your comments are not entirely accurate. John Adams left town before Thomas Jefferson was inaugurated. Adams did not attend Jefferson’s inauguration. On Feb. 17, 1801, the Federalists in the House of Representatives finally, on the 36th ballot, gave up their quest to steal the presidency from Jefferson and certified his election. This left President-elect Jefferson just 15 days to put his administration together. It seems certain that he had already drafted his inaugural address — one of the three or four greatest in American history — and he knew going in that his principal adviser would be James Madison. John Adams left town before Jefferson was inaugurated. John Adam’s did not attend the third presidents inauguration.
  12. So what’s Obama’s reason for declining to jump on the Harris bandwagon? He declines to endorse while saying an,“outstanding candidate will emerge.” I would think this a bigger conversation than I’m hearing.
  13. A win is a win! Need a nice run from here.
  14. WSJ July 19, 2024 7:23 pm ET A gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination. Thomas Matthew Crooks flew the drone on a programmed flight path earlier in the day on July 13 to scour the Butler Farm Show grounds ahead of Trump’s ill-fated rally, the officials said. The predetermined path, the officials added, suggests Crooks flew the drone more than once as he researched and scoped out the event site.
  15. I’m on the other side of the coin-no Apple TV. Hate that. Wanted to watch Flaherty pitch.
  16. WashingtonCNN — First lady Dr. Jill Biden will host a fundraiser while she’s in Paris leading the US delegation to the Olympic Games opening ceremony in Paris later this month, the Biden-Harris campaign said. ——————- Jill can’t let it go. This isn’t about serving the country anymore. This is about serving yourself and your lust for power. Give it up, the charade is over.
  17. I’m seriously believing the Covid thing is the first orchestrated move to remove him. I believe Biden commented the day of, or the prior day, of his testing positive that the only way he would step down is if doctor’s orders demanded as much. I’m waiting for the next act.
  18. The same guys that designed the All Star unis prolly. Flaherty’s days are few here in Detroit and I really wish he were staying. Here or wherever, I hope he finishes strong this season.
  19. The exact response I expected. So my comment stands.
  20. Both the GOP and Democrats have abandoned the center. It’s an all or nothing in Washington. Sad
  21. Will you please convey your point to Motown Bombers. He’s having a really really hard time letting go.
  22. The question the Democratic Party is asking has nothing to do with Biden’s past accomplishments. Jeffries is talking around the core issue driving this whole fiasco. The party questions whether or not he has the charisma and energy to move the party forward. This, not his accomplishments, is the sticking point. This isn’t an election about a 30 day term, we’re talking four years.
  23. It is beyond me how anyone can listen to any of this garbage. Be it Democrat or Republican, it’s all BS.
  24. We’ll be seeing St. Paul & The Broken Bones Saturday night…finally.
