  1. I have my physical in a few weeks and plan on getting both the flu and booster. Bring it on. Someone should make band aids with meatball Ron's face on it to put over our shot site.
  2. That is so good. I can see his dumb face right now making that argument and Fox Heads eating it up.
  3. Vaping's not the worst consideration of what she does with that mouth
  4. He's got a friendly judge in the docs case and he's not worried about it, even though that's the one he faces the most heat. The strategy is delay it and hope we get a GOP President, then he'll get a pardon. So he's not worried. He should be, but he's not.
  5. "That's ok buddy... get 'em again next time. Good luck in the playoffs dude."
  6. During the crisis Dubya invited McCain and Obama into some key meetings so that they would know what's going on since it was going to be their problem at some point. Pelosi and other top Dems were also in the room. Bush asked them if they had any quesitons or comments and Pelosi said Obama would speak for their side. He did. Then Dubya looked over at McCain who had nothing. Dubya wasn't impressed.
  7. Could also say that Palin in 2008 invited all of that to boil up. Throw in the first black President and it had elements for victim status among the aggrieved. "Look how they attached a normal housewife who's a Christan.... We got ourselves a black President, who is also Mooslim and... get this... his name is Hussein!" It all tied together. 2008 awakened them and when they stayed home in 2012 it enabled Obama's landslide.
  8. To be fair to Al, I don't think that was his decision. That's more of a marketing thing. Al's job was the players and coaches. I hate it. Caberera's last game should be wearing the same jersey that our other legends wore. Not some gimmicky gas station knock off.
  9. If Romney had won in 2012, and ran for re-election.... Trump would have run in 2016 as a Democrat and won espousing mostly the same issues he did on the campaign. We'd all be republicans now wondering what happened to the "Democrat" party.
  10. This is a good point as to why maybe some cave in or retire.... People are crazy. I can only imagine what it's like for low level people, like say election workers. Imagine someone here gets appointed to some commission that 5 years ago nobody even knew existed. Now confronted with MAGA and Tucker mentiones your name and your phone number and address gets linked.... that's nuts.
  11. Pay attention when you are in traffic at a stop light how long it takes to move once the light turns green. I bet 20 years ago you'd have had 3 or 4 more cars make it through the green than you do now. Why? Because people are on their phones and not paying attention. Car in front goes, they are looking down.... "oh, I can go?" On Tuesday a lady in a car next to me was facetiming while driving. Right hand on the wheel, left hand holding the phone. While moving. Her window was down so I slammed my horn when I got next to her and yelled at her. She dropped her phone. It was extremely satisfying. I really do not understand what is so important that requires you to be messing with your phone all the time while driving. I make a thing now when stopped to see how many people reach out for them. Easily 60%.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. Chris wants so bad to feel one of the boys and a peer to the players
  15. 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.
  16. Gavn Newsome.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. The Braves guy responsible for turning around Robbie Grossman must have moved to Cincy.
  21. 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?
  22. 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.
  23. And was probably a better motorcross rider and golfer than SS or OF.
  24. 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.
  25. 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.
