I spent half the game watching the Artemis Ii crew splashdown.

Right. Me too. As it was, we had to offer 4 years, plus an optional 5th, when he wasn't getting 2 from anybody else. He supposedly wanted to leave the team to see his GF, Tram said no, so he tried to fight him. Sorry dude....

it's obviously Fernando Vina My friend went to Rodriguez's pizza place in PR a few weeks ago and was mad that there was nothing about the Tiger. The Rangers and Marlins were represented.

I tried to exchange my tickets for tonight as the weather looks crummy but they changed the window from 24 hours to 48 hours. Bastages. I actually wanted to stay home to watch Artemis II splash down.

And Fielder got the credit for all the runs being scored... he and Tettleton for his HR's, but it was the on base skills that did that. It was Fryman and Phillips and Tettleton, not for his HR's but his walks.

I'll never forget the winter meetings when the Tiger signed Phillips. It was right when ESPN got MLB and they covered it a lot more. They were talking to Peter Gammons and he said the Tigers just signed him and to watch out for that, he's going to be a good player for them. He was very high on it. At that time I thought of Phillips as just a utility guy on the A's. Nothing special.

there's some really weird sects within Christianity about that topic.

Glen Campbell was a great guitar player. Saw an interview Henley gave with Billy Joel where unprompted Henley said Campbell was this country's greatest singer.

The problem is you have a very narrow, and self defined, definition of “the left”. You’ve done this before where you pretend your sides **** doesn’t stink sometimes. And that’s objectively not true. And I say this as an adoptive member of the left. Yet I am sometimes reminded why I previously wasn’t. The idea of “impact” and “reach” isn’t quite relevant because most of the reach by the right is an ideological bubble so whether it’s 10,000 or 1M, the same number of votes take place.

There is a contingent of Obama/Trump voters. I think Bernie played into their thinking.

Yep. Several of my leftie friends are always sharing stuff that's wrong. A lot of it comes from Occupy Democrats. And some of it gets shared here. I'll throw out an example. On Good Friday a big fuss was made, and i fell for it too, about the Pentagon "Banning Catholics" from a service. That's not what happened. The Pentagon held a Good Friday service and specified there would not be a catholic mass. People took that to mean a snub. It actually wasn't. Catholics don't celebrate a mass on Good Friday. They will go to church and do stations of the cross and all of that but it's specifically not a mass, by design. I viewed that as kind of an expectation setter that this is not going to be mass if you were expecting one. Catholics could still go to the service.

Yeah I go with Chicago over anyone… except those cops in The Fugitive. “She was more rich”.

When does it get fun?

Yikes. I had no idea he was on there.

He's the same as he's always been the difference this time are the people around him following through with his crazy ****. That's what is scary.

cool thread title bro

good news, thanks for doing that Bert.

eh, Tim already had 2 WS championships and they won the year before in '67 so he could get over it. 🙂

2 weeks. No joke. Two weeks. He’s just ****ing with us.

The 25th and impeachment/removal will never happen. Never. You need Republicans for that. The only good Republican is a retired Republican. Gut it out or death. That’s our option. Nobody is going to rescue us. Not podcasts and not the media. The only hope is some wipeout in the elections that presents supermajorities that could lead to proper impeachments. Remove Trump. Remove Vance. Remove Hegsetth. Install the new speaker.

Random memories. Pudge Rodriguez hitting the homer off Fausto Carmona to win it. “Into the night!” was the call by DD. Bonderman giving up a lead in MN.

and especially since half that cabinet might believe they'd be fired from a Vance presidency.

I lean now towards him knowing... no, it doesn't matter. But these missions are planned very carefully and crew emotion and stability is so important on a trip this long, they wouldn't throw that at him unexpected. They are on their way back now. The moon has moved out of the zone they occupied in their loop around.

Brooks was the nicest guy, hands down, that I ever saw at an autograph show. After that experience I heard the same from so many others. I was at the HOF right after he died and his plaque was decorated with flowers, like they always do when someone passes.

I've read they did know but it wasn't an official source. But watching I got the impression he didn't.
