Of course, "friends" means "people who are useful to him". Everything is transactional with him.
It does sound fake, but she always sounds fake. As you said, she has said this stuff before though.
As a team that won 86-87 games the last two years, I feel as if they are at a point where even 2-3 wins of improvement can substantially increase their probability of success. Thus it seems like a good time to be adding a good established player or two. I'm not really expecting that to happen anymore though.
I remember when bowling was popular in the 70s. I didn't play enough to get good at it, but it was fun to go once in a while, ugly uncomfortable shoe rentals and all!. There used to be two alleys in town - one really big one which everybody went to and another tiny one that looked like somebody's basement. The big alley is long gone. The five-lane basement alley is still there - almost 100 years old.
yeah, I was thinking something similar. Why would they release something horrible like this if it's true? Release something unbelievable which they are able to sufficiently debunk to their base, and the whole story dies. Keep the real stuff under wraps.
My father and I went to Lakeland for Spring training several times. It's something every tiger should experience at least once if they get the chance. You are right about the traffic Getting from the airport to Lakeland is not fun, but I love the park (and especially the back fields) and love the warm weather after a cold winter.
The Harris thing was just a joke. Most of what we talk about in the off-season is about what Scott Harris is doing or not doing. Nothing much has been happening lately, so we have gone off on tangents.
They have already targeted Haitians in Massachusetts. One of my students had his whole family deported last year. He gets to stay because he was born here. Lucky for them, they were sent to Canada instead of Haiti. I don't know the details.
I am skeptical of the reports. However, I believe there is a high probability Trump is guilty of knowing what was happening at the very least, so anything that keeps the general idea in the news is good in my book.
One problem is that eveyone is so obsessed with winning championships that anything less than that is considered failure. So, every year 29 teams fail and the average team wins a championship only once every 30 years.
I alao agree that villains (teams that spend a lot of money and win more than other teams) are good for sports. Every team having the same probability of winning each year would be boring.
It's baked into the equation for us, but not his supporters. That is who they want to keep it from. The best case scenario for him is that he didn't participate but knew what was happening and is covering it up which is still impeachable.
LOL, speaks a lot of languages. I have had Trump supporters tell me she is classy because lots of languages. Most people from small European countries speak multple languages. It's not a sign of class. They need to learn multiple languages for basic communication.
It's silly to suggest that ANY prospect will get 2500 or 3000 career hits, but it's good to see that the Tigers have a prospect with enough potential that he is being hyped that way.
During his great years, he was the best hitter the Tigers have had in my lifetime, It was a joy to watch him during that time. However, he is not one of my all-time favorite Tigers for the reasons you mentioned.
