  1. Maybe it increases it due to making the impulse stronger? 2 seconds to talk yourself out of it. I am just spitballing. I’m not an expert and my extent on knowledge of pitching injuries is that Passan book a few years ago, which i probably forgot 90% of what I read. I’m not trying to speak with authority. The only thing I feel strong about is not trusting MLB, and the others, with having the player’s interests in mind, above that of a business consideration. And absent more medical information I am inclined to listen to the players since it is their body and actions that are affected. I just don’t see the need to change the clock again after one year.
  2. I’m not smart enough to say one way or the other. I see replies like “we didn’t have TJ before the clock” and roll my eyes though. That’s not how you do medical analysis. All I will say is I don’t trust any of the sports leagues when it comes to players health. They will always put profits over that. If the players had concerns, no matter how valid, then why not keep the clock as it was a while longer? Why the need to rush things?
  3. That was a fun episode. Filmed last fall at an event space on E grand blvd. I went to a wedding there. They ended up at the Ford Wyoming Drive Inn. yeah I thought the stuff for Miggy was overpriced. That’s all for show. I don’t think Rick left with anything to sell at their shop.
  4. I heard they are going back to the attitude era type action. Is that true?
  5. Yeah it’s tough to figure out. Squeaking by bad teams could be interpreted one way but also maybe a big reason those teams are bad because they played Detroit. But it’s 7 games behind us and the cushion helps.
  6. I once read that Denver and his family after he passed only wanted the Orioles to play it.
  7. It had been a few years, maybe even 7 or 8, since I had MLB Network. A few weeks ago I got it back and thought it was just me. In the past I could put it on, a La sports center from my college days, and feel like I got a great idea of what’s going on. Now when I do it I don’t get the same feeling. I don’t want to watch it intently. I want it on while I am reading or cooking or cleaning or whatever.
  8. I will fight anyone who boos tomorrow.
  9. My FB memories yesterday reminded me of when in 2016 when I came out there and was watching the Tigers the afternoon I arrived at that frog bar or whatever it is, Treasure Island, I think? It's right on the strip and easily accessible.
  10. they did a ST game. I made note of the fact that the Tigers booth had both a guy with CP and a guy with Parkinson's. A testemant to what's possible.
  11. and if it's not an effective political strategy then the blame for that falls on.... Hamas. Israel are making fatal and immoral mistakes. They are committing murder. I won't deny that. Netenyahu is scum. But none of this happens without Hamas letting it happen and causing it to happen. I wish the left could have condemned Hamas with 1/20th of the vitriol with which they give Israel. If Israel just stopped and Hamas slaughtered the remaining hostages... you wouldn't hear a peep of sympathy from the radical left over those lost lives. Nothing. They don't matter as long as you can slam "The Zionists"
  12. Josh Lyman and CJ hated John Hoynes.... and Lyman worked for him.
  13. ball bounces at a right angle in LF and a second run scores. Do not approve of this.
  14. language warning!
  15. If Jesus came back they would accuse him of not being a real Christian... then come up with some kind of pretzel logic to justify it. "Well, I guess we're Jews after all"
  16. that playlist sucks. I'm surprised margaritaville isn't on there.
  17. He's the one who grabbed "Hillary's" boob.
  18. Glad it's a 12 pm start. Maybe they will finish by 5:30 or 6.
  19. Can you imagine prehistoric times when this happens? I'm thinking a group of cavemen types, with little "education", not places like Egypt or Aztecs. Just sitting around getting food ready, fishing, whatever... then the sun gets covered up and things go dark. Would they think the world was ending. Did they find the nearest woman and start having sex?
  20. I'm just waiting for some ignorant asshat to schedule a meeting during the time of the eclipse.
