  1. I’m not an expert but we do an egg bake every week and have to hand grate it because my wife says pre grated has stuff in it that makes it harder to melt right. I don’t know the accuracy because she gets her **** from Pinterest and I make fun of it. “They say…”. I don’t trust “them”. Grating it sucks. I’ve broken 3 of them over the last 2 years.
  2. for those who have been… how many days should I plan for Cooperstown? Can you see it all in one day?
  3. I have never been weighed or measured at the Secretary of State office
  4. This was the best game I have been so since probably before the pandemic Miggy started it all with 2 outs.
  5. Some guys, like Edwin Jackson too, are good enough to get some value but not good enough that you worry about keeping, if that makes sense, so including him in a deal for someone you want is easy. I'm surprised his OPS+ was over 100 given his lack of power for a 1B. Quality ballplayer.
  6. I'm sure they would have looked into it and I assume insurers balked at it. I don't know what insurance would cost but given his history I bet it would have been pretty high. Also possible nobody would touch it.
  7. My driver's license has self submitted height and weight.
  8. He threatened the sheriff. Staff claims he was trying to help a girl having a diabetic seizure. He wanted to put gum in her mouth allegedly.
  9. Mug shot released tomorrow at 4
  10. For awhile in the early 80s we got coke vials. I still have my Enos Cabel version.
  11. I have never gone specifically to get a give away and this year they moved them to Saturdays only, I have the Friday package. Fridays are “party in the park”. But I would suggest being there as early as possible. Typically when I have gotten there 30 min before game time the stuff is gone.
  12. There was a large event going on at Comerica Park and also at the other venues.... so Cass from the Masonic all the way down to Grand River was pretty congested between 6 and 7 pm with cars looking for parking and pedestrians walking... and these two cyclists were there plowing through everyone, they think they have right of way over pedestrians. Even auto drivers were cautious. Not these cyclists. I'm like "Ok, you want to ride.... can't you go a few blocks over if you want to go north or south from midtown to downtown? Like avoid the people and cars?
  13. I had a 1984 season retrospective on cassette and there's a game where Lou hit a grand slam against Milwaukee that would have won the divison that night except the Blue Jays rallied to win later on that night. On the call Paul Carey said the same thing.
  14. Looks like the Ohtani fun is over. Damn.
  15. https://x.com/dan_dickerson/status/1694382207807135848?s=46&t=rTECiCzi2O-lytdgFWVzfg
  16. That doesn't sound exciting for Sox fans.
  17. To be safe I would say 30 min minimum before the gates open. For giveaways there's often a line just to get in and the black panther one may be a hot item.
  18. Teams and government entities do not share the same values anymore. Governments are broke and don't want to pay for stadiums. Teams are not broke but don't want to pay for stadiums if they don't have to so they will find someone who will pay. Fans get screwed.
  19. There's storms coming south but the question will be how far north east it stays. Could clip the Detroit area around 12-1 pm.. maybe a delay. We will be there today.
  20. India has landed a spacecraft on the moon. The fourth nation to do so and the first to do it on the south pole. They tried in 2019 but it failed.
  21. Someone on the internets suggested Jim Thome. Lol. press release makes it sound like he’s got his man already.
  22. broke college students drinking bud light for breakfast
  23. listening to gambling talk is as exciting as listening to someone talk about their golf game or fantasy football results on Monday morning at work during football season. Nobody.Cares.
  24. It would have to be one of those positional matchup type deals where different needs are met. You'd want a Tork type player, in terms of MLB readiness and all that but at a different position. Of course the value of a 1B/DH compared to another IF skews things.
