The delay is curious to me.  Part of me thinks they have it worked out but just want to see what the demand of the streaming portion will be.   When this first came out the article, or maybe their press release, said it pretty clearly that it would be available on existing services before opening day.  How do they know that if they haven't settled the business questions?  

But i can't make sense of why it's taking so long.  I saw one game on TV this year.  Hardly any casual conversation going on amongst people I come across. Maybe with the first week being on the west coast they know numbers are lower so to the org the season doesn't start, in terms of marketing, until the home opener.

He literally is cheering on German right wingers. 
 

wonder if he’s got a mustache 

For similar vibes just follow local weather ether or traffic “girls” on social media and see all the gray goatee creeps tell them how beautiful they all are. 

This is not real. But it should have been.

I've had a similar moment.  There is some bar chain where the women are doing short kilts and its supposed to be a Scottish hooters.  My buddy and I stopped in there to get dinner and were embarrassed for the girls and thinking, "aren't you cold in that outfit?"  

Yep. There’s one of those in Vegas. We have been there twice but it was only because we wanted to eat and it was street level on the strip. Didnt feel like wandering around the bowels  of a casino. I just wanted beer and something deep fried and fries.  My feet hurt and I’m tired. Sensory overload.

...and that money has been keeping them afloat ever since.   (JK)

The last time I went to one, not counting a bachelor party bus that stopped in, was 2003 or 2004. My wife and kids went to NY to visit our nephew. A friend calls me on a Friday and says he will be at the criket after work. It’s on the way home so I meet him. Everybody is gone so I have no responsibilities this weekend. Then I realize after about 25 minutes, I paid $5 to get in.  $6 for my labatt. And instead of the girls on the stage I am watching ESPN.  I guess I grew up at that point. 

I partied in New Orleans with Franco Harris in 2002.  But I was too drunk at the time to realize it until they left and some college kids asked us if that was him. That is probably why they were hanging with us. Super Bowl week in one of the bars sharing a high top and buying rounds while listening to a band.

Wow, that's wild! I don't remember where I read that but it might have been FB. I should know better if that's where it was. You can' trust squat on that site.

Good news just the same. He is one of my all time favorites. 

AI has made FB almost unusable other than direct communication with people you know/trust and established groups you are a part of.  You all know I love space and get fed so much crap that's just plain wrong.  Nothing harmful but a 7 paragraph AI written spiel that looks like it was written by AI 4 years ago while still learning.  Same extends to entertainment.   

And when someone dies or a tragedy happens you get AI photos related to that.  "Oh, a flood happened, here's Mick Jagger, dressed like Mick Jagger, helping out."  "Oh, Robert Duvall died, here's his widow holding his Emmy and Oscar on his couch crying".

My mom reads this stuff and will say "I didn't know Jason Benetti had cancer and was dying".  Why did she say that?  It was on her Ipad.

If he was a right winger he'd be elected President.

The left purges their pedos. The right elevates and defends them.

I know he's got a lot of movies but for me my favorites were Delta Force and the Missing in Action movies.  Pillars of my middle school years and they were Cannon Films to boot.

I seriously wonder whether Dan has a shot at the broadcasting wing of the Hall of Fame. He's not nearly as famous as most of the announcers there, but he is a broadcaster's broadcaster.

I think so.  If you do it for a long time I think you get in.  Are there any not in that have the longevity?  It's not a rhetorical question.  I ask it because it seems like some get in that I only know in passing.

Wasn't she the one who gave a SOTU response years ago that looked like some chick from a reality show about Christians who have 15 kids where the wife submits totally to the husband and it turns out every male in the family are sexual predators?

the hardest part wouldn't be consuming it.  It would be waiting the 9 innings to do it.  I'd finish the 4 ounces for the first hitter.  Then buy another beer while I wait for the next inning.

The game is 1 beer/dog per inning

meanwhile... ICE....

but go on...

you are so bad at this it's not even challenging. 

I think the title is great reminder to how dumb and wrong they are.... after all we're on page 15.... still there.

They’re too busy thinking about everyone’s genitals. 

Is that what the grass is about?  Trying to show that they at least make sure....

and that's not a stretch.  There are radical preachers and other religious eaders on the right who think that as soon as a girl hits puberty she should be having kids.

You are showing too much respect for the intelligence of the person you are writing to. His folks are jealous of the power of the ayatollahs.  They’re too ignorant to remember. Too busy thinking about grass or some dumb ****.

Tommy Lasorda spent a lot of time at the flight club during the all star game week in2005. That’s on Michigan Ave in Inkster. 

I know I could do it

He's calling Michigan and Michigan State

We had it scheduled to watch Saturday night but got distracted.  We wanted to see it before the Oscars.

If you saw "The Crown" when Anthony Eden is obsessing over Nassar and the Suez.  That guy at least knew what he was doing but he was an old man in a hurry trying to cement his reputation apart from Churchill.  

It was the last time i recall that the US and UK were on significantly opposite sides of a crisis where military assistance would not be forthcoming.   History rhymes. 

I loved that show but stopped when they got to Di and Charles... I figured I experienced all of that already via tabloids.  But I learned so much before.  Great show.
