Buttigieg is very smart and explains things very well. If the voting public were interested in competence and not drama he would be a slam dunk Harris isn’t popular. That stinks because I really believe if she said she wouldn’t be on the ticket and wanted to be a senator again then Biden would announce he isn’t running. That would open things up. I think Biden is running in part because of Harris. If he doesn’t then he has to support her and he doesn’t think she has a chance to win.

I joined a just for fun, kind of, league. $100 and you get 10K in funny money to play with on college and pro. Have to bet at least half your money every two weeks. It’s fun. Gives me an excuse to watch the games and my son and I are already spending more time together. I certainly see the appeal and gives me just enough of an adrenaline rush with no real risk in reality.

Chris wants so bad to feel one of the boys and a peer to the players

I have two tickets available for Thursday the 14th, club seats. 321 row B, 1 and 2. They are not my regular seats but are pretty good. Especially for foul balls. Was planning on going with a friend but he can't and I am actually pretty busy at work. Let me know. No cost.

Gavn Newsome.

Love the part at 1:04 where she's adjusting her boobs while walking out. Gotta make sure the girls are tucked, yet visible enough to the job she needs them to do.

You know where I sit at games and I notice it a lot now where he fumbles balls, doesn't get to them... yeah the scoops are sexy but not something you want to see too often. I'm not a hater but he needs to improve his defense to keep playing there. As a DH he'd be fine on a team with other decent hitters. But as a fan I don't want a softball team for a lineup.

They just need to find a way to keep it in the news so that their base remains engaged. As long as the typical brain dead GOP voter glances at the Fox News screen or the gateway pundit site and sees the name Hunter Biden they will be satisfied and more likely to vote.

The Braves guy responsible for turning around Robbie Grossman must have moved to Cincy.

A 23 year old DH only needs to be an Ohtani type hitter. Is Tork a long term answer at 1B? Is Carptenter long for the OF?

I also think that it's not out of the realm of possibility that Harris looks at the deadline deal shenanigans, if that's what they were, and wants to be done with that. If all things being equal is at play then making the boss look bad can be a deal breaker.

And was probably a better motorcross rider and golfer than SS or OF.

Anybody watching Winning Time? I absolutely love it and it's revived my interest in that era of the NBA. THe last episode had a great scene with Riley taking over the team.

If I didn't know better I'd think you hit on her and she turned you down. It comes across as obsessive. I love her as governor and hope she runs for Senate. She and some of our other prominent female leaders in this state are models of how the country would be better run by women. I firmly believe that. I don't know if her background would pass inspection from a national search. I have no inside dope or anything but there might be some skeletons best left hidden. Who knows...just a hunch I have.

Without any deep analysis I just go by my gut and say that it's been a lot of fun watching the team this year. The good times feel legitimate and earned. The bad times exist but it's easy to think there'd be fewer of them with some tweaks that he should be capable of doing. They aren't THAT much better but I feel like I am watching more of the future than just retreads. Rather than go on about individual deals or non deals it's better to take a macro view. Expecting him to pull an expedited Dombrowski and get the team to the WS in one year rather than 3-4 is unreasonable. Not saying anybody here is doing that but some on twitter already make fun of him and think he's in over his head. Absurd. I'd say a solid B. It's probably an easy B considering the state but that's the reality.

What i remember about Beiker is he made his debut, in fact when I looked it was his only appearance, the day before we left to pick up our first dog from the breeder. Had to drive to Columbus. The talk radio guys were making fun of his name as we were driving down there. We were newly married about about to turn our life upside down by getting a creature we were responsible for 24 hours a day, a boston terrier puppy is great training for kids. The kids were easier!

I mention this a lot, I know, but each morning Fox 2 News has to do their corporate duty and air a propaganda segment from the parent company. You can tell they give the anchors the questions to ask because it's so out of place for what I know of Jay Towers to come up with these on his own, not a knock against him but just not his wheelhouse, same for Ryan Ermani or whoever else is in the chair that day. I'm sure Fox does this with all their corporate stations, it's a showcase for their national talent to look smart. You can tell they know the answers already because they are talking fast and nobody is that well prepared. In a clip on the upcoming race they show a side by side of Trump and Biden. For Trump he's standing behind a podium with the POTUS seal. Biden's clip is from the 2020 campaign. That's subtle but intentional.

and no President, until Biden, had the guts to "lose" Nixon had bigger problems so getting out was at that point not his worst problem so why not....

What about the Griffey Donruss Rated Rookie card? I have about a dozen of those.

I hope they keep it up. Nothing people love more than fighting battles from yesteryear.... that lost.

He could have been ROY if not for some guy named Mark that hit 49 Looked it up. Kevin Seitzer finished 2nd, Nokes third. Mike Henneman even got a point in the voting.

they passed a law that had instructions to kill a guy named Brian Woodward? Did they make him drink old Flint Water? Was Snyder there too? Did the law have crazy fonts in it that people couldn't read? I'm confused here.

I found articles from 2016 that referred to the 2018-2021 seasons after the CBA signed at the time. Home team still sets times but there's rules now. It has to be a day game if the departing team has a flight longer than 2 1/2 hours, even if they have the next day off. Detroit to NYC is under 2 hours. Also there cannot be a day game to start a series if the visiting team played the night before in another city (This was in response to Detroit having their "traditional Thursday" day game when, I think it was Boston that played the night before, and some bitching went on). In both cases It can be a mid afternoon game if they want, like 5 pm, based on some other criteria. Doesn't have to be necessarily a "night" game.

Can someone explain to me why I should care about Gretchen Whitmer in regards to the Flint water crisis?

Maybe it has to be a day game if the team leaving is still going to be on the road but since Detroit comes home then it's ok.
